Thank you so much Michael Ferris for being such a brilliant help in finding the perfect property to call “home” - nothing too much trouble and no question too silly, you’ve taken the stress out of the whole process and for that I can’t thank you enough. I will definitely recommend you to any of my friends and family looking to buy, sell, or rent in the future. Thank you!!

As a family we would highly recommend Butters John Bee in Sandbach. We have been really impressed with the customer service we received especially from Reuben Gittings. He couldn’t doEnough for us, making sure all the questions we had were answered and arranging several viewings for us. Reuben was really friendly and approachable and made our experience with Butters John Bee easy and enjoyable right down until we agreed a sale.

BJB have been extremely reliable and attentive throughout the letting of my property. All expectations were met. Everything happened according to the timeline I was promised and a suitable tenant was found within a day of the property being put in their hands.I will be using them for all future lettings. Special thanks to Lucy at BJB Hanley who has answered all my questions and kept me fully updated throughout.

Wolverhampton branch

We arranged to view a property with the Wolverhampton branch and was shown around by Luke. We then submitted the application for the property and was kept informed throughout the process. Elisha was very polite (as was Luke) at all times, kept us informed and also on the next steps. Nothing was too much trouble even with me phoning them a lot with my worries lol Will definitely recommend

If you can avoid renting through BJB

If you can avoid renting through BJB, then do so. The worst company I have ever known for ‘customer service’! I reported a faulty shower and it took over 10 telephone calls & 12 months to get fixed. Then I had a problem with the gas hob as two burners had stopped working….11 months later and only after I reported a gas leak did they finally arrange for an electrician to come out and replace it. Most recently, my sink has started leaking and flooded my kitchen and the shower rail no longer keeps the shower head in place….reported 5 months ago and again when they advised my rent was going up, but still nothing! If I could give zero stars I would have. BJB - up your game and either sack the ‘property managers’ that don’t manage properties or train them in customer service and best practice!

James at Butters John Bee has been great during our lengthy and complex house purchase. We received a lovely welcome pack when we picked up the keys. And even better, the Sold sign was removed less than a week after we got the keys! We would use and recommend BJB for future house purchases/sales. Thanks James! :)

There are so many Estate Agents to choose from in Congleton but we were fortunate enough to choose the very best. When Emma from BJB came to our house she had done her homework, bringing examples of local properties on the market and demonstrated a sound knowledge of the local area. This gave us confidence in her and her ability to value. The icing on the cake came with the sale of our house in just 2 weeks. Well done BJB and all your dedicated team and thank you.👏👏👏

We rented off a landlord who sold through these and we have tried to get in touch with them after leaving England. Now we are in the process of court procedures due to the landlord ignoring us and disappearing. No help from butters john bee whatsoever. Noone buy no 34 wroxeter way sirchley as you'll be deeply upset with how you'll be left with it

We dealt with James, who gave us a valuation of our property. We found him very friendly and knowledgeable. He communicated well with us and was completely honest about our unusual situation. Would highly recommend - Thank you very much James for being so helpful!

Could not thank the guys enough helping me sell my property in the Telford branch, they kept my up to date on viewings especially Matt who emailed me regularly so I knew what stage we were at.

Really helpful, professional and understanding!!!

Newcastle under Lyme BJB were so helpful when we were trying to find a new house to rent. Lydia was especially helpful and patient with us even though it was over Christmas and we were having some issues with the previous house. She made the whole process easier and less scary and always responded to emails very quickly. I highly recommend BJB for being efficient, helpful and understanding.

The Congleton Team of BJB were the upmost professionals and took me through the process efficiently and in a timely manner. All of this was conducted at short notice from myself and a Tenant was established within 2 weeks of advertisement. This was primarily due to the enthusiasm and dedication of the lead BJB agent Michael Ferris whom ensured timely communication and continually took proactive action to secure Tenants.

Fabulous

The Sandbach team has been absolutely fantastic, they went over and above my expectations and were so helpful. Excellent value for money, they took time and effort to keep the sale moving and liaised with all parties and their solicitors to ensure everything went smoothly. Thank you Natasha and Rueben I am so grateful for all of the trouble you went to.

Fantastic letting service

Fantastic letting service received from Rebekka who has worked exceptionally hard to ensure that our rental payments are paid on time by the tenant after I transferred the letting management from another Estate Agents in arrears with a bad paying tenant. Her hard work has been really appreciated to get things back on track. I would have no problem in recommending Butters John Bee and especially Rebekka to anyone.

Rubbish communications

This company needs to 'up' its communications. I emailed the Hanley (Staffordshire) branch, no reply. So I rang a number I found after an online search for the Hanley office and got their head office (I think) in Colchester! The dialling code was correct for the Hanley area, so this is highly deceiving. I wanted to speak to Hanley. How can anyone in Colchester know about what's going on in Hanley? The person who took my call was pleasant and said she would contact Hanley and that I should also email again too so that they could connect the two messages. The two stars are for the fact that I did actually get to speak to someone albeit the wrong person. I did email again and got no reply. Get your communications sorted BJB, you aren't making a good impression.

We sold our house really quickly last May with Buttersjb. We had Emma Spanton there for us the whole way through to Completion, Emma was so helpful, nothing was too much trouble even though i kept ringing and emailing her for updates. We were very happy with the service we got from Emma and the team at Newcastle-under-Lyme, Thank you Emma. We couldnt have got through it without you.

Above and beyond

We used BJB in Sandbach to sell our home. We experienced delays and issues from down the chain. During the while experience Melissa and the team provided excellent communication and regular updates. They went above and beyond to get our house sale completed.

We were looking for somewhere to move into during lockdown and it was a very stressful time, Michael was so supportive and helped us every step of the way. He even met us on his day off to give us our keys, that’s truly going over and above! I would highly recommend using them - they have made a very stressful situation easier. Thank you.
