GoogleJust purchased my first property through Beresfords and could not fault them at all.
Ben picked up my first phone call and I’m so glad he did, he made the whole process so easy and smooth. His knowledge of the property, area and amenities sold it to me. He met me for several viewings, answered all my questions (there were loads) and even chased and met up with the locksmith at the property in his own time when there was a missing key, nothing was ever too much.
He bridged the gap between buyer and part-exchange company well and chased the seller up on my behalf time and time again to ensure timely close.
I highly recommend Beresfords, especially Ben! Thanks again so much

Thomas was absolutely wonderful at finding home that met all of our requirements. He took the time to thoroughly explain a home’s details before we decided to move forward with it. He liaised between the two parties seamlessly. We were able to relax and have a stress free process due to his professionalism. Thanks again to Thomas and everyone at Beresfords for all the advice and help we received.

TrustpilotI wish all agents were this great!
I wish all agents were as reliable/easy to deal with as Alice and Christine from Beresfords. Very friendly service all round. They took a lot of the stress and frustration I was experiencing from other agencies out of the equation.Trying to find a somewhere in the current climate with so many people going for each property is frustrating. Majority of agents I spoke to wouldn't even do simple things like return calls/emails or couldn't get through to them on phone lines. With Beresfords being the polar opposite to my experiences elsewhere, returning calls and doing what they said, when they said they would was a breath of fresh air. I was happy with their service even before I was offered the property so would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone.Thank you Alice and Christine!

GoogleI had a terrible experience with this agency. I felt cheated. In 2023 we rented a property through them. It was a nightmare; the property had mold and dampness, and the heaters didn't work. In 2024, the contract expired, and when the inspection was done, the girl from the agency said they knew the property had many problems. I was shocked. I sent several photos to prove the amount of mold and dampness.

Hi Janaina
I was disappointed to read the contents of your recent review, but believe these issues were actually raised back in January of 2024. Shortly after you posting your feedback you were contacted by our Area Director who provided a detailed response to the comments that you had made at that time. My understanding is that this tenancy came to an end quite some time ago whereupon you vacated the property, and to my knowledge we have not had any further dealings with you for over a year. However, if this is not in fact the case and you have other more recent issues to raise, then please feel free to direct these to me personally at sb@beresfords.co.uk.

TrustpilotMixed experience with communication but Lauren's help made a difference
I recently changed my contract with Beresfords for the property I own and rent through them. I switched from full management contract to let only contract.However, I was not happy with the process at first because it was a misunderstanding between me and the letting department. They did not respond to may emails and questions and I felt ignored. It was frustrating because I expected them to assign someone to help me since I was under full management contract. When I was about to lose hope, Lauren Johnson stepped in and contacted me firstly by email then by phone. She not only acknowledged the miscommunication but also took the time to clearly explain the entire process of changing contracts. Lauren made sure I understood the necessary steps for the contract switch and was open to discussing any concerns or questions I had. I would like to say a big thank you to Lauren for her support. Her actions reflect positively on Beresfords and demonstrate the value of having knowledgeable and customer-oriented staff members. She is undoubtedly an asset to Beresfords. While the initial breakdown in communication was disappointing Lauren's intervention and assistance turned the situation around. I believe that Beresfords should take this as an opportunity to improve their overall communication practices and ensure that clients receive consistent and timely responses. In conclusion, I am grateful to Lauren for going above and beyond to help me during the contract switch. Her exceptional support greatly improved my overall experience with Beresfords. I would recommend their services with the advice to seek assistance from staff members like Lauren to ensure a smooth and satisfactory experience.

I naturally have very high expectations and I have to say that Beresfords consistently exceeded them. Our property, unexpectedly came up for renewal in November and I was incredibly concerned about the prospect of finding a new tenant with it being so close to Christmas. I spoke to Karen and she was absolutely fabulous. She reassured me, took control and skilfully guided us through the process. The entire team is simply superb, from Karen, Lauren M, Christopher, Lauren J, Abby and Leanne. They have a real sense of urgency and empathy, resulting in us securing new tenants in November. Each of them epitomise, efficiency, professionalism and tenacity. They continuously kept us up to speed on progress made and went beyond expectations. They work tirelessly hard to do the best for both tenant and landlord. An absolute joy to work with alongside a great outcome for landlord/tenant!
