Ease of moving with the help of Chané Cauldwell

Just recently moved into my first home with beals. Started very confused and had no idea what to do but our letting agent Chané Cauldwell made it seem so simple and easy! Extremely grateful for all the help she gave and patience she had. Highly recommend her and Beals as a whole. Thank you

Great experience

Chloe, who we dealt with initially, was great and helped us secure a rental property. Aisha took over seamlessly when Chloe was away which was a pleasant surprise as that hasn’t been our experience with other estate agents!They kept us up to date throughout the process and we were in the new place within 2 weeks. I hope that all our interactions with them will continue to be this great! Would definitely recommend.

A professional, respectful and competent agency

From: prior tenant (with managing landlord)During the marketing of my prior property, it was clear to me as a tenant that Beals were keen on doing their best job to market the property, while being respectful of the wishes of the current tenant and landlord. Additionally when I was looking for my own rental they were very informative and professional.During the arrangement and viewing of my prior property, my agent Isobel was very professional and respectful, while very fun to chat with as well. She answered all questions from prospectives knowledgeably. I was impressed with her professionalism and ability.

Jades help with my tenant

I would like to say that Jade Goulding has been exceptional in helping me deal with my tenant who was behind on her rental payments. Her advice of what to do and how to go about it was 100% spot on and after I followed her advice the problem was resolved almost immediately. Not only was Jade polite and friendly she also made me feel confident in the decision that I eventfully took of how to deal with the situation. I will with out question be returning to Beals to undertake Jades professionalism in the future.

Hannah Proudley - Beals Parkgate

I have rented my first flat after owning my own home. I went through Beals in Parkgate and had the pleasure of dealing with the lovely Hannah. Hannah was incredibly professional and very knowledgeable. I couldn’t believe how quickly the whole process went and how smoothly Hannah made it happen. She is a credit to Beals. I would certainly recommend her and Beals to anyone who is looking to rent, buy or sell.

Highly Recommend!

I had a great first experience renting with Beal’s and was immediately put at ease and offered a lot of support. Ellie was of great help to me and allowed me to enjoy a process that can often be stressful. I am now in a place I love and cannot thank her enough for helping me every step of the way. I highly recommend this company to first-time renters!

Thank you Holly

I spoke to Holly at Beals. She was incredibly helpful and spoke to me on the phone to understand what kind of property I was searching for. She then sent over properties that suited the specification I had given and booked me in for viewings. It made the process nice and easy

Thoughts from abroad

We have our flat managed by Jade from Beals and we just wanted to say how fantastic she has been. We are waiting to come home to England but due to COVID restrictions we are delayed. Jade has been so kind and patient with us organising so many things on our behalf. Every time I email she gets back to us straight away and is always so helpful. Thank you Jade and Beals for looking after us in these stressful times, it is very much appreciated. 😊😊😊

Horrendous Experience!

I rented a flat with Beals in November of 2018 and stayed there for two years... Unfortunately, it was two years too long!Once I moved in, I realised that the electric radiators didn't work properly and that the windows had been inadequate before I moved in, to say the least. I didn't realise after only fifteen minutes of viewing the property that some of them were in fact, broken open! This problem was not listed anywhere on the inventory that Beals had given me and I was never told about this issue verbally. Merely that they simply needed a 'coat of paint to freshen them up.'I then spent the winter in freezing cold conditions and suffered from chest infections.After many months, the landlord arranged for the windows to be fixed. The workmen arrived to 'fix' them, only to get the measurements wrong and leave me with windows that were sealed shut with some sort of industrial foam, meaning that I couldn't open the windows and it was left that way for more than ten months!This caused black mold to develop, as I couldn't air the room. I spotted it too late and realised that I had been breathing it in every night as I slept! As soon as I spotted it, I cleaned it up immediately. However, it continued to return during the course of those ten months, so I had to keep cleaning it.The toilet broke after about six months of living there and continued to break over the course of my tenancy, leaving the flat smelling of urine and excrement, due to constantly not being able to flush the toilet and having to use buckets of water in an attempt to get rid of the waste! The problem was never fixed and left to get worse and worse, until the toilet flusher had all but come off completely!Then came the problem of the black, green and white mold underneath the kitchen sink and in the bathroom!I later found out that this was due to leaks in the pipes and called Beals immediately.The landlord never fixed the leak underneath the kitchen sink and only came to fix the one in the bathroom after the floor had been completely flooded!The floorboards were taken up by the landlord an entire week after I had reported the urgent issue and white mold had developed over the floor, as it had been left unattended for so long.I was then made aware that the landlord knew all along that there was a problem with the pipes behind the bathroom sink!He made it clear to me that he simply 'hadn't got round to fixing the pipes.' I was speechless!The bathroom floorboards were never even put back down during the rest of my tenancy!The landlord even had the audacity to increase the rent and after trying repeatedly to get out of my tenancy agreement early, Beals informed me that in order to do that, I would need to pay them hundreds of pounds in fees just to get an agent to book viewings for the flat, so that someone else might take the property off my hands, but with no guarantee of this!Despite of all this, I cleaned the flat before vacating it and left it in the best state that I could.When I was finally free of that horrendous flat, I then had to fight to get my deposit money back!I opened up a case with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, after Beals kept ignoring me.Beals sent them a report on behalf of the landlord, who wanted to keep my deposit money for 'reasonable wear and tear' that was present in the flat before I ever moved in and 'damages' that were either caused by the landlord himself or entirely made up! For example, he wanted money for 'damage to the kitchen door.'There is NO kitchen door, as there was always an open archway into the kitchen!Suffice to say, I had lots of evidence to present to the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, proving that I had done nothing wrong and I got my deposit money back two months later.Suffice to say, that the time I spent in that flat were amongst two of the worst years of my life!To Beals, the landlord and that horrendous flat, I say GOOD RIDDANCE!

Louise made a difficult time easier to deal with.

Louise made the selling of the house smooth going at a awkward sale due to probate. Stayed in contact all the time. Which was helpful seeing as my mobility makes it difficult some times. And went that bit further by taking us back to the ferry which was a nice thing to do. So can't thank Louise enough.

An absolute DISGRACE of a company

An absolute DISGRACE of a company. There is SO much I could write about their bullying tactics, threats, negligence and complete incompetence however I will focus on the main part of my complaint. After 4 years of 3 monthly inspections, and at each of these inspections, me bringing up the issue of rain literally POURING IN through my disabled son's bedroom window, nothing was ever done. Then low and behold 2.5 months before our tenancy was due to be renewed they wanted to send some builders round on a few days notice. Unfortunately I was due a serious operation on the date they insisted on, so I asked, politely if there was anyway another date could be arranged as 1. I wouldn't be there, 2. I had no where else for my child to sleep while the work was being done and 3. I would need to recover at home. The email I recieved in response was "just a heads up, your landlord doesn't want to renew your tenancy since you're being difficult". As you can imagine, this was extremely distressing to think that I was being punished for daring to ask for a bit of consideration! I was in floods of tears for days, worried and panicked that my family was going to be made homeless. I couldn't believe that after 4 years of being a reliable and honest tenant, that this had happened so I wrote a formal complaint to which I recieved a phone call a day later to say that then agent had infact, LIED about this and that in actual fact our landlord was selling the house!? So this girl, had lied, and threatened us with homelessness and let me believe it was my fault! I was so stressed my blood pressure went through the roof and my surgeon explained that I had to be calm as being so stressed and anxious could seriously affect thr op and my recovery. There is so much more I could say on the matter but the way they run their business is an absolute shambles! We were also threatened with the fact that our landlord is "friends with Mr beale himself" as to control our complaints!

Beal's provided an excellent service when we were selling one of our buy-to-let properties. Katie Healey, our Sales Progressor, was particularly helpful and efficient. It was a leasehold flat and the sale was constantly stalling due to the number of parties involved, and a difficult Freeholder. Katie kept us up to date with progress, chased constantly, provided really helpful advice and guidance and was integral in ensuring completion of the sale.

Fantastic Service

I recently dealt with Emma at Beals on the purchase of a new property. The service was second to none, and along with Louise and Lauren who helped answer some queries, the process was made to be very easy. I can highly recommend using them again, they seem to communicate far better than I’ve experienced previously. Thanks for your help all.

Awful, avoid

After deciding to move out of our glorious huge flat which was maintained by the most fantastic family run estate agents, I had the misfortune of dealing with Beals Fareham. Now, Amber was a lovely polite girl and was helpful. The move itself seem to take an age and I was constantly contacting them to find out what is going on, the new landlords insisted on meeting us to make sure 'we were normal, clean and would look after their property' as she professed to be a house proud person. That's fine, until moving day. Walked into the property, the smell coming from the place was disgusting, the property had not been cleaned even though they stated it had. The individual who was supposed to log all of the marks, stains and usual wear and tear, had given the place the all clear. The carpets had not been hoovered let alone cleaned, the very visible red marks on the carpet had not been logged, I can only suggest the reason may be so they get to keep my deposit when I leave by accusing me of causing the marks, naughty. I took photos and videos of everything. It was disgusting. HOUSE PROUD!!!, if this was house proud I wouldn't have let stig of the dump live there it was that bad, the toilet was brown and the smell was like a farm yard. I called Beals and asked them to come and see the place and they refused. I sent photos and videos and a full email explaining everything. We decided, stupidly, to clean the place ourselves, I bought £50 worth of cleaning supplies to scrub the place and 4 people and 4.5 hours later including carpet washing it really looked no better or smelt better. The landlords still had personal possessions in the loft, the garden and the garage which they had kept the keys to, so we couldn't even get access to the garage, which is a breach of contract by the way. The landlords were supposed to collect everything that weekend and leave the garage keys but they were a no show, not even a message. Now the property was to be maintained by the landlords not Beals. We decided to hand the keys back. Jessica, what an unpleasant individual. She spoke to her staff quite poorly, maybe a little power crazed as I witnessed her speaking to Amber like she was her personal PA and rather rudely as well. We received our deposit back quickly, but the first months rent, which we're pretty convinced that between Jessica and the landlord, it was suggested that they let us out of the contract, which we were told we should be grateful for, but would lose the £1000 rent, we never moved in and had the keys for 3 days. We then sought legal advice and was told by the solicitor which a letter was composed explaining to Beals that the landlord had breached contract on 3 separate accounts and therefore we were entitled to our money back. We were well within our rights to take the landlord to a small claims court. All of this completely true and on our side but sadly we decided not to as this would have taken up too much time and energy. So the moral of all of this is steer clear of Beals who are liars, thieves and will back the landlord before the tenant as we're just a money maker for them. Shame on you Jessica and shame on the landlord who happens to be a nurse, so much for compassion eh. Disgusting and karma has no deadline.
