Diabolical agents
Diabolical agents! Not only Canterbury office but many of their branches. As a potential buyer, trying to get a response from them for viewing a property on their books was shocking. Tried ringing, phone never answered. Left messages, no replies. Contacted them by email, again no response!! Thank goodness I have not got my property listed with them (mine sold within a week with another agent). Finally got through to a male on the financial side in the Herne Bay office. He said the branches have meetings until ten so you won't get through (one of my calls was approx 10.15, still no one answered). I said I had left a message on Saturday morning, he said they were attending awards ceremonies on that Saturday!! Awards for what? I fail to see how this agent deserves any. I would not recommend them to my worst enemy. If I could have left no stars I would have.

Every house move needs a sales progressor like Debbie
This is the second time I have dealt with Miles and Barr and would highly recommend the Birchington branch. They always answer the phone and nothing is ever too much trouble. Once our house had been sold we had Debbie Mead the sales progressor. Only one word is enough for Debbie and that is 'amazing'. Every person moving house needs a 'Debbie'. She kept us up to date and was always available to answer any questions and put our minds at rest if a problem with the sale occurred. With Debbies' help we pushed our sale/purchase and move through in less than 12 weeks which in the current climate is fabulous. She was always positive and happy and cant praise her enough.

Property Management poor
Have used M & B for 7 years to manage our rental property. Increasingly poor service as the years go by, with many staff changes in property management and a willingness to abdicate rather than own a problem or issue. A recent failure to meet a legal deadline for gas safety, was met with untold reasons and justifications as to why is was not their responsibility (my poor choice of landlord contract apparently!) and the solution in an email from M & B was for me to resolve. Always opted for the fully managed service since using M & B but we really do not receive the 'fully comprehensive management service' as advertised or promised. Untold input required from the landlord on occasions, which is time consuming and effectively contradicts having a letting agent in the first place. On the plus side the rent payments are always prompt and any discrepancies dealt with quickly and efficiently. Such a shame that the property management side of the company is so inefficient and hard work to deal with at times.

First impressions of M and B team.
My experiences with the M and B team (Dover) were positive ... the initial contact, the valuation of my property along with an in depth rational of where the housing market is, were both professional and informative.The following day we viewed a property. Nice and relaxed. It was made clear that if I had any 'questions', concerning the property the agent would do their best to answer them.

Dreadful experience
Dreadful experience! Estate agent turned up, said he was from the Ramsgate office, so didn’t know Dover. Presented no card, no details of houses sold in the area, no information from the branch. Then said he couldn’t value my type of house, would get his manager to call me, so a complete waste of my time. I asked him what the house might be work…..’err £320k’- seeing as the house next door went for £350k a year ago, not sure where he got that figure from, Zoopla? M&B sold me the house, so it’s astounding how unprofessional they are and never received a call from the manager!

Disorganised management team
Absolute joke Miles and Barr are. Letting agency lost my front door keys which I paid to have replaced. Tenant left the flat in a disgusting way yet the check out was deemed satisfactory. The sub contractor cleaner said she cleaned the flat yet upon inspection is absolutely filthy. When I raised this with the letting team I got passed from operator to operator. I firmly believe the letting agency has family members as sub contractors and sadly I parted companies with them and have a new management agent. In one word. SHOCKING.

Mixed experiences
Viewed a number of houses with them. Agent in whitstable was fine. Knew the properties and was helpful. In Margate the agent had never been inside the house and was only interested in getting us signed up to them, despite us saying we were happy with our sales agent

Super helpful, thank you Callan!
Callan showed us around a few properties in Folkestone and was so helpful. We are first time buyers so had lots of questions and uncertainties but he made us feel at ease and understand the process much better. As well as first time buyers, we are relocating from London to Folkestone, he gave us helpful tips about the area which made us even more excited to move. Very pleased we had Callan as an agent and our experience of Miles and Barr has been fantastic.

I try to purchase 675k asking price house in Ringwould Dover and offer 730k to Miles and Barr on wednesday. They ignore my offer and I see on rightmove that is sold 2 days later on next friday. I offer 800k the same day it goes as sold on website on the friday and they ignore me. They ignore my request for photographs on the wednesday I make first offer previously after telling me property needs renovation so I ask for pictures and they pretend I dont exist. Virginia cannot spell her own name correctly in emails to me no effort no photographs atroce no use again

Patience and Perseverance
A buyer was found within 2 days of getting on the market. Once we had found a property to buy it took far longer to reach exchange than we had anticipated but all the problems were caused by our lenders poor choice of conveyancer causing serious delays. Other than that the sale process was pretty smooth. The use of of a sales co-ordinator definitely helped keep everyone up to date and helped progress things.Emily Stickler regularly kept in touch and co-ordinated everything very well particularly towards the end when time constraints got quite hairy and tense.
