TrustpilotGoing the extra mile!
I am not a tenant or landlord, but a neighbour of a property let by John Shepherd. There was an issue with a piece of broken furniture in which could be heard in my property, creating an awful consistent noise. This had been a long standing issue in which the previous lettings agent did not consider part of their remit, and were quite unhelpful. When I heard the property was now managed by John Shepherd, I called and spoke to Caitlin, Property Manager. She was extremely helpful, sorted the issue within a week and kept in contact with me throughout. It is rare that we give positive feedback and I believe we are all judged on how things are managed when things go wrong, which is why I am leaving this review. Thanks for your help, much appreciated.

As a first time buyer, the process seemed very tedious and overwhelming. However the agents (Madilynne and Natasha) made it easier by responding to the emails promptly and explaining the next steps at every step. They have been super helpful with something that is very exciting but also very anxiety-provoking!
