Excellent service provided my Frank Innes rep (Dawn) when buying a home for my mum. Dawn provided us with an excellent service by communicating with us through out the process & providing us with information when needed. Very polite over the phone also. Many thanks Mitchell

Would highly recommend Frank Innes. The process has been smooth, efficient and easy, and the wonderful lady who dealt with us (Olivia) couldn't have been more helpful or knowledgeable. She certainly made a difficult move feel manageable and we constantly felt we were in trustworthy hands. Having previously experienced pretty rubbish service from other agents, Frank Innes and Olivia restored our faith that there are some helpful and reliable agents out there! Can't recommend them enough!

Appalling service. Scheduled a viewing for a property, making it clear that I would require a time past around 4:30pm, to be told that this time would not ever be available and to pick a maximum time of 4:00pm. Sure enough, I ask for this time fully aware I will have to leave work early for it and am scheduled a viewing on Monday. After doing so we realise that Monday at 4:00pm is coincidentally already scheduled for a different important activity and ask for the viewing to be rearranged on a Tuesday. I am rudely informed of the fact that, should I choose to do so, I may run the risk of losing the property as there are already some viewings scheduled for Monday. I accept the risk and am told the viewing was rescheduled to Tuesday 4:00pm. On Tuesday I take every opportunity I had to call Frank Innes and confirm that the viewing is definitely still going. After failing to reach them 5 times, I conclude that as I was never informed of the viewing’s cancellation this must surely still be going. I make my way to the apartment block’s entrance and wait, only to find nobody showing up. I call one more time and finally get through to someone. I ask what’s going on and I am told, flat out and bafflingly, that there is no viewing scheduled for the day. I inform them that there definitely is a viewing scheduled for the day and I am then told that the viewing was for Monday, that they had “reserved the slot and everything”, to which I reply saying that this used to be the case before my call to make a rearrangement. I am asked if I can remember who I spoke to, to then be told that it’s out of their hands and they can do nothing about this as no viewing was scheduled and as, allegedly, everyone was currently working from home due to an issue in the office. Something I’d hardly call an excuse. I am told that I could be sent a video viewing of the property if I wished, to which I replied that I already had a video viewing and really just wished to view the property physically; but after being told that I decided to enquire on whether the property was even still available. After all, I was told the risk of losing it was quite high. “Uh… no.” was all I got. Sure then. I will be sure to avoid them for any future letting enquiries.

I got an offer accepted on a house through Frank Innes. Alice Lambert, the estate agent, was very professional and laid back in her approach such that I did not feel like she was coercing me to make an offer. She gave me space during the visit and came across as genuine during the offer process. I did not think that she was playing games to make me increase my offer. She was friendly and understanding of my anxiety, displaying high communication skills, all in timely manners. Alice's approach made the offer process more pleasant than what it could have been given the current market.

After searching long and hard for the right property, in the right area, at the right price that’s available in the time frame my husband and I were looking for, Frank Innes Derby could not have done a better job. From start to end the process was thorough, straightforward and transparent. I would like to personally thank in particular Jaime, Simon, James, Lydia & Adam for all their hard work and dedication to the task at hand - their fantastic area knowledge and their ability to give comprehensive advice and answers as quick as possible, especially as my husband and I work to a similar pattern as their office. I would not hesitate to recommend them to other parties relocating and wouldn’t think twice about coming back. Thank you all.

I have been a tenant at a property managed by Frank Innes for 2.5 years now and I am just about to move out (tenancy terminated by mutual consent). I have read some of the negative Google Reviews for Frank Innes (Derby), but I cannot claim that any of them reflect my experiences of the firm or the people who work for them in their Derby branch. Indeed, I can, in all honesty, say that I have received excellent customer service throughout. That is not to say everything has run entirely smoothly at all times, but even then I have been pleased with the way everything was handled. Before concluding this review, I would like to single out Adam Slaney (who works within the Lettings Department) for particular praise. I am grateful to him for taking the time to get to know me as a customer over the years and I have always been impressed by the fact that he is a man of his word, and has followed through on any promises he made to me within good time. In summary, I would not hesitate to rent a property managed by Frank Innes in the future and I wish them every success with their business.

my wife went to Frank Innes about 6 weeks or so ago to look for a suitable property to rent for ourselves and our daughter.We visited numerous other agents and they were ok but they seemed to let us down with viewings and that bit of extra help needed.That day my wife went to Frank Innes they found us a lovely property and they understood our need for a quick move due to a school start date for our daughter and we moved in to the new house a couple of weeks later. The staff were brilliant preparing everything for us and they were always friendly, polite and professional and a special mention to Adam(who found the property for us) , James who gave us the contract and explained everything) and Simon who gave us a very nice welcome visit) these guys are a credit to Frank Innes. Thank you again guys Mr and Mrs Barnett

I’ve had a great experience with Frank Innes. I was struggling to rent a property as with other letting agents they weren’t available for several days and then an hour before my booking they’d cancel on me! However, Frank Innes got me an appointment ASAP and I signed for the house there and then. I dealt with Jamie and Lydia, both of which were really pleasant and professional. I needed to move quickly and they facilitated this; they left me messages and emails when I was busy, met me at the property and took payments over the phone. I feel they went out their way to accommodate me and it’s made moving so much easier! They have even assisted me with further queries since. Both really lovely and I felt really relaxed when making the decision to sign. Thanks!

Alice was fantastic, I have bought and sold through her and she dealt with everything. If she wasn't around the team were also knowledgeable about my deals and were very helpful. If you want an Agent use Alice at Frank Innes !

The service I have received from Frank Innes Derby has been excellent - efficient, prompt and professional - everything that you need from a letting agent. In particular, any problems or queries that I have had with my property have been dealt with expertly by Lydia.

I can only comment about the acquisition of the property as I'm only just moving in but Frank Innes so far have been great to deal with, Particularly Lydia in the Derby branch. I work abroad and most of the time I only have access to email. Lydia replied every time with in a very short space of time and really tried hard to accommodate my needs while being away. Lydia made the whole process of taking the property very easy considering I was not there in person. Many Thanks!

Poor communication over several months from Frank Innes. Several voice mails and emails left which just weren’t responded to. After around 7 months of the buying process I received an email, just days before exchange and completion was requested to tell me that the vendor had withdrawn his property from sale. No one even had the decency to pick up the phone to me. Wouldn’t recommend their services to anyone.

Went through Frank Innes to rent a property out. My letting agent Lydia has been fantastic from the start. The property was taken the day it was listed and any issues have been quickly resolved. Reasonable fees, great service! Could not recommend more highly.
