TrustpilotReview for Gita Patel
As a tenant with John Shepherd for 3 years, I have been consistently impressed by the professionalism and care shown by my property manager - Gita Patel. She manages every matter with clarity, and genuine consideration, making the entire experience smooth and reassuring. Her communication is prompt and courteous, and she always ensures that any issues are addressed swiftly and thoroughly. Gita’s dedication and reliability have made my tenancy exceptionally well‑supported. A truly outstanding property manager - highly recommended.

TrustpilotAlex Shomari is one of the few agents that you can trust and followed through with promises and requests made. Amazing guy
Alex was great in following up on all of the questions I had about the property. He even took personal time on his day off to help me view the property on the only day I had, he was always fast with his responses and agreed changes regarding the property for improvements with the landlord fast. Lovely guy and was happy to help any any time and was the fastest process I have ever had with an agency. He allowed me to look around without the sales pitches. It’s hard to come across and agent that you can trust but he has been a superstar and would highly recommend him. He is an asset to the John Shepherd agency. Thanks once again

TrustpilotRooms looked good for the price
Rooms looked good for the price, spacious enough, good enough window view considering the price. I currently pay more money for less space, so can’t wait to change locations. Kelvin was a great tour guide, had good manners and stayed patient despite running into some problems.

TrustpilotFinally - a great agent!
It’s rare in this day and age to find a great estate agent who takes your calls, helps you out and does what he says he will do with professionalism and speed. Having been a developer for 30 years I have come across many shapes and sizes! Most are quite useless. So Joe Farrer is a rare breed - and a great asset to John Shepherds - if I employed him I would hold onto him with both hands!
