Steff and Lauren have made renting a pleasure rather than a chore!!! I would not hesitate to rent through them again. Their response rate is incredible together with their willingness to ensure I have a good rental experience. Myself and Maisie the springer spaniel have been very happy renting with them for the past 3 years! Highly recommend.

Amazing staff and great to find a company that finds the balance between tenant and property owner. For us the best thing about the team at S&W is the knowledge legally and making sure that both tenant and owner understand everything if there is a problem. We would strongly recommend the team and it's just nice to have a team that simply treat you how they clearly would like to be treated themselves. Much better processing than our previous letting agent. Thanks again The Jads

By far the most helpful agents I've come across. A week before moving into our property, the letting agent we were going through (and paying) disappeared. I had a call from Steph saying she was now dealing with it & although the Landlord new nothing about our imminent arrival she got everything sorted in time. As you can imagine, with having to move out of our previous home on specified date etc, if it hadn't of been for Steph's efforts we'd have been homeless. Cannot thank you enough Steph!

The team at Southern and West and the Landlord I rented with are by far the best I have experienced in my few years of renting. As well as their friendliness, professionalism and communication, I was amazed by the care and dedication they showed to making sure I was as comfortable and safe as possible through some complex issues.

Cracking service from Steff & the team at Southern & West. They found me a quality long term tenant who kept my flat immaculate, took away the headaches of managing it & always communicated effectively re any issues. They were also a big help & support when the tenant finally moved out & I decided to sell. Thanks for all your hard work over the years!

Bad experience! In fact they are useless liars and I highly suggest avoiding this company at all cost! I wouldn’t even give them one star! If you have a problem in any property they rent/let then I suggest you deal with it yourself as informing this agency will just result in them blaming you! Can’t wait for my contract to end!

Could you kindly contact me on info@southernandwesthomes.co.uk or 01202 232323 as feedback is very important to us and we are always striving to improve our services.

Changed to one star as they tried to charge me an extra two days rent and for a cracked fridge shelve which was very old and wearing before we moved in. Initially, everything was great - Just be wary about their check our procedure. We won through the DPS, did not pay a penny, they tried to rip me off Avoid

James Β· 12 June 2020

Agent replied Β· 11 June 2024

Hi James, I am sorry you felt you had a bad experience with us and that you changed your 5 star review to a 1 star review following deductions being made from your deposit for damages. If a property is not returned in the condition it was given to you in (bar fair wear and tear) then the landlord is entitled to make deductions to remedy any damages caused during your tenancy. The fridge was not that old and as per the checkout report, you did crack the drawers during your tenancy, and as such it is only fair that you pay a contribution towards the cost of replacing these. In addition, you did not return the keys until 2 days after your tenancy ended, so the landlord is entitled to charge rent for these days. I wish you the best of luck in your new home.

Have used southern and west to manage my property over the years. They have always given me excellent customer service and are always efficient, especially when i had a tenant who thought it was acceptable to walk away from my property having caused damage to furniture and leave all her rubbish behind, then complained because monies were released from her deposit to cover these costs.

I used this company after being recommended and they were very helpful. They managed to find me tenants after two viewings and these tenants I still have after 3 years. These tenants have been very good and caused me no issues. The service I received was very professional so I would highly recommend to anyone.

First class service. Pam, Staff and Zoe have always been very helpful and professional. I was so impressed when I rented through them that it was a no-brainer who to use as agents when I needed to let out my own flat several years later. Would highly recommend.
