TrustpilotHome purchasing
We unfortunately didn’t use Miles and Barr to sell our home, but had the pleasure of purchasing our next home through them.Throughout our experience of moving home, they demonstrated how the process should be handled, unlike our agents selling our home.In our opinion they went above and beyond. With a team, very well led by Hollie-Anna, we received weekly phone calls, giving us regular updates on what we needed to do and what we were waiting on from other parties involved.They were always on the other end of the phone, willing to speak and explain various processes and always more than willing to assist in anyway they could.

Shelley and Aggi were impeccable throughout what has turned out to be a rather turbulent sale, but have always been dutiful, patient and understanding and helped us thoroughly in the process!

TrustpilotStress-free and enjoyable rental experience helping us find our perfect home
We approached Miles & Barr about a beautiful house that my boyfriend and I were hoping to rent. It ticked every single one of our boxes - but there was a lot of interest! We were in touch with Holly Hill at the estate agents throughout the process who ensured we had every opportunity to view the property, meet the landlady and kept us reassured throughout until our acceptance. Holly really supported our application and has made the whole process so easy, accommodating our needs. It has been such a positive journey. Thank you!

TrustpilotExcellent service
I haven't bought a property in over 40 years so was a bit rusty. Everything Miles and Barr have done for me has been excellent, from the initial introduction, both polished and professional to the updates received every ten days to let me know how the sale was going through. Any difficulties quickly remedied, I can't praise Miles and Barr enough. I would also like to praise Ben for his professionalism during the initial meeting and Shelley Webster who has kept me up to date throughout the procedure.

TrustpilotNot a good experience.
We asked M&B to market our house last autumn and only had a few viewers. The few viewings that did take place, we never had any feedback from the agents. For weeks on end we heard nothing from them. Earlier this year they called me suggesting we dropped the price by £10k to get in before the stamp duty concession ended. But no sale. So I cancelled the contract and put the property with a different agent. A week and a half later and we have an offer at the original (higher) asking price which we have accepted.

TrustpilotBigotted staff with too much power
This company discriminates against single parents of low income. This agent told me they had put my details forward for rental properties when in fact they did not show my details to the landlord at all. I found this out as a family member turned out to be a friend of a landlord but he wasn't shown my details. This is down to the one member of staff having too much 'power' and it going to her head. Shame on you and your colleagues for judging people by thier circumstances.

TrustpilotPoor sale info communication
Poor sale info communication. Incompatible buyer viewings. Several dedicated sale progress advisors instead of one as we were told. When i called for info " We are not dealing with that now its with our sales progress advisor". Our latest one had left, leaving us chasing around staff to get information ..ended up calling the Deal branch to get them to contact Ramsgate. Only to be told our sale had fallen. Through. Unrealistic hope of sale of our property to 'very keen buyers' , one of which was a cash buyer. Considerable wasted expense completing buyers demands. Only to have all 3 sales fall through. First call from M&B since November to 'Touch base' Nothing to do with Covid, Brexit or the weather, just an unsatisfying disappointing service. Not Recommend

TrustpilotA big thank you
A big thank you to the staff at the Ramsgate branch but especially to Emma smith the sales negotiator she went above and beyond to keep me informed of the sales progression of my property. We found ourselves in a long chain which we had no knowledge of due to sellers that were less then truthful (not miles & Barr or Emma’s thought but another estate agents negotiator that didn’t even bother to contact us from the beginning)

Recently bought a flat through Miles and Barr. Found them to be very helpful and professional. They provided me with a personal adviser, Donna Bogard. She was very nice and dealt with my queries and problems promptly even when she was poorly and working from home. All the staff at Broadstairs office quickly dealt with my request for extra viewings. Would definitely deal with them again and recommend them for good service.

TrustpilotOn the verge of being left homeless…
On the verge of being left homeless because of incompetence, delays, and now outright lies.Offered and agreed a Move In date, plan accordingly and give notice on current property.1 week later, some BS about workmen unable to get in, so push the Move In date back 8 days.Plan and pay for things based on the new Move In date.2 days before Move In, chase to confirm about keys, only to have date pushed back another 3 days, to basically coincide with the date we have to give keys back on current home, meaning we have no way to move furniture, decorate etc and even 1 more days delay means we would be homeless.Then, to be told they never mentioned any date other than the latest one, and we must "be confused" (I have it in writing - no confusion there!), and there is nothing they can do about it....My wife is in tears, I am an emotional wreck, and we have got to find £750+ to cover lost deposits, cancelled van hire, storage, and hotel costs.We have Rented for the last 25yrs, moving numerous times. NEVER have we been subjected to such a dysfunctional, ignorant, could-not-care-less bunch of cowboys.

TrustpilotI have had my house up for sale for 2…
I have had my house up for sale for 2 1/2 months now during the current "housing boom" with this agent. During this time I have had four viewings - a fifth did not show up and no explanation was given. The first "buyer" made an offer, then withdrew it two weeks later after searches had been started. Last person to view told me my house was "overpriced, too small, and about to collapse due to a construction fault", which - if it is a fault - affects all 120 houses on this 40-year-old estate! He then offered 10% below asking price, which had already been reduced. Nobody seems to know what other staff are doing, they double up on calls, or do not call at all. I had to constantly remind them of my situation and circumstances. Given up now - will try again in the new year with another agent.

We have recently purchased a property through the Miles & Barr branch in Cliftonville & we would like to thank them all for their professionalism & efficiency throughout the whole process. Louise Daly, in particular, has been a complete star & her calm manner & understanding of the industry has been a huge help to us through a sometimes stressful time. Thank you so much, we really appreciate it! David & Laura Milner

TrustpilotI am far from happy with them
I am far from happy with them, i have now been without hot water for 11 days and still they are not chasing the plumber to fix the boiler, as my shower also works from my boiler i can even have a bath or shower. I am disgusted with the service, how would they feel with no hot water!!!!!!!!!!I have to state this is NOT down to my landlord as he is paying them to deal with this.I have now told them that if it is not fixed by the weekend i will be going to environmental health and trading standards.....
