GoogleThis is the second time I have used Renshaw's in the last 5 years. On both occasions they have been absolutely 1st class. From financial services to mortgage advice, to sales and properties, the whole team has been superb. These are local people with expertise in a range of areas and coupled with a friendly and professional approach have helped make selling and buying homes less stressful. I would like to thank the whole team once again for the help and support you have given as this is very much appreciated.

GoogleI was very pleased with the service I received from Renshaw Estates, they were very helpful and friendly from the first day when I enquired in the shop to the day of completion. I have been kept informed at all the stages of the sale and the staff are all very knowledgeable about the procedure of selling all types of property.
I would recommend Renshaw Estates for house sales to all my friends and colleagues, they were excellent.

GoogleBooked viewing for property really interested in
Estate agent would not do a quick viewing 6 day wait
Day before viewing phone cancelling
Offer had been excepted
Never even got to view

Thank you for your feedback.
Unfortunately we have to act on our vendors instructions with their properties and if they accept an offer we have to cancel future viewings sometimes. Like most of our properties, this one received lots of interest in the three weeks we have been marketing it.
Viewing enquiry was received and actioned Tuesday morning, viewing arranged for the Friday as suited the vendor but offer accepted Thursday.
We wish you all the best with your property search 🏡

GoogleRenshaw Estates is the 3rd agency I've been with and by far the best one, they have never let me down since day one and always got stuff sorted out with the landlord soon as, Stevie at Renshaw has been nothing but amazing when it comes to dealing with the landlord and helping to sort things out, would highly recommend to anyone looking to go through a agency.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleNOT the best agents
NOT very proffessional and honest in dealing with buyers
I viewed one of the properties advertised for £170,000 and gave the offer for same amount
It was advertised exactly for the same amount not for guide price or offers over
I kept ringing them for three days and got answer wendor hasn't made a decision
Once they gave me a call and asked what is my best offer and I asked them well it's advertised for £170000 and I am ready to pay it
As agents they didn't gave me information that they are looking for offers over that
The advertisement was changed offers over on the final day and I wasn't aware of this
So I didn't get the property
At the end of the day it's not about not getting offer accepted or anything
It's about being honest in dealing with buyers
So I would say be sure to ask them what they r expecting if u want to do business with them

Hi Sreekala, We appreciate your disappointment in not securing the property.
We did advise you of the Best & Final offer scenario which we followed to the end. As I'm sure you will understand, we cannot advise everyone what each offer is as it wouldn't be fair.
We are honest and professional throughout, deal with Best & Final offers regularly and have to act on our vendors instructions as their agent.
Best of luck with your property search, Renshaw Estates.

Googlei would say very very bad agents to deal with. Absolutely they are unprofessional and greedy. They dont have any formal way. I actually looked for an offer for a property put up by Renshaw agents for a 3 bed semi detach property which was for 170000 on 7th saturday october 2017. I booked viewing and saw the property at 11.15 and gave full asking price as an offer to make sure i get that property. Normally all other agents cancel rest of appointments and talk to seller and make it a deal. But Renshaw said we will get to know about it only on Monday. we call them on monday at 12 , they said 3pm. then at half past 2 we got a call from them saying is this your best and final offer, my wife asked what you mean by it, we didnt bargain and gave exact asking price. Then they told it will be finalised tuesday 2pm. We saw tuesday morning they changed the advert given in website to over 170000 offers, which is not an honest way to do. Tuesday my wife again contacted them to know whats happening. adked does it have any over offer, they said we cant reveal. Thats alright. But my problem is how can i make sure i get that property bcoz i could have given more. But i dont know what the seller wants. i cant simply say 200000 for it. there should be a asking price. Then renshaw call my wife and said they gave it to higher offer. In between we saw their reviews in website. then i saw its a usual practice of them. My wife told it was infair and unprofessional and its a very bad experience. we lost our 3 days simply because of their unprofessional ways. I think they wanted to make us take their mortgage advice also. For that i think they would have gave it to a customer who would have agreed for that as well. I am really feeling bad. I also had another experience before this, where i gave an offer of 180000 for a property of 190000. They havent done anything on it. okay we didnt give full price, so we cant make regrets. But for this time i gave exact asking price, without any bargain, still they play their tricks. oh God hole this review will save other buyers who try to get a property through renshaw. Anyway let God forgive their bad way of dealing customers.

Hi Dinesh, As mentioned in the reply below to your wife:
We appreciate your disappointment in not securing the property and many of your assumptions are false.
We did advise you of the Best & Final offer scenario which we followed to the end. As I'm sure you will understand, we cannot advise everyone what each offer is as it wouldn't be fair.
The offer on our other property £10,000 below the asking price was rejected on the same day which we advised you.
We are honest and professional throughout, Not 'greedy' as we work on a 'fixed fee' basis, deal with Best & Final offers correctly and have to act on our vendors instructions as their agent.
Best of luck with your property search, Renshaw Estates.

Google*AVOID AT ALL COST*
Where do i start.
First of all, the house hadn't been inspected properly for my move in and problems were still around 4 months after moving in regardless of how many letters and phone calls.
I had a moving in party and I got a letter THE NEXT DAY telling me to keep it down but THIS WAS ONE NIGHT. where were my letter about the house? everyone seemed to be out of office all the time and i got no call backs with anything concrete to go on so i kept calling every week.
I complained about the doors the most and EVENTUALLY somebody came and they told me it was nothing. (turns out my doors were NEVER locked properly so ALL MY POSSESSIONS COULD HAVE BEEN STOLEN, thank god they didn't ((human rights violation))
Even after all that and more I gave everything the benefit of the doubt until the alarm in the house went off for 48/72 hours, which i had to stay awake for and keep reconnecting and disconnecting it because no one in the office could do anything about it.
This company actually made me mentally unwell.
This isn't a joke,
They are sneaky, greedy and unprofessional.

Hi Joe, We note your comments. Sorry you felt the need to air your concerns, however, I have looked into this further for you. Unfortunately as the letting agent we don't have the authority to instruct contractors to sort issues on a landlords property until they give us authority to do so. On some occasions unfortunately this is not always forthcoming. I can honestly say yours isn't our tenants usual experience. Kind regards, Renshaw Estates.

GoogleI recently purchased a property through Renshaw Estates that progressed with no problems at all. I also sold one through them in 2016, and they secured a buyer swiftly at a great price... again, all went perfectly! I notice the negative reviews are from offerers that didn’t get the properties, and 2 from the same couple... perhaps the owners don’t have the same negative thoughts if they’re receiving ££££ above what they expected??
