TrustpilotGreat service from the Northwich team
Great service from the Northwich team. While the overall process wasn't smooth, for issues outside BJBs control, they always knew what was happening with my purchase, no matter who I spoke to in the office. My main contact, Jacqui, was ace, has clearly been doing this a while, was always able to help me make progress or even just listen to me moaning about solicitors. It was reassuring to know I was going through the purchase with such an attentive team.
Dear M Gordon, Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are very pleased to hear about your experience with us whilst purchasing your new property. We always love to hear from our customers, especially with such great feedback. We wish you all the best and hope to speak to you again in the future. Kind RegardsCarlos

TrustpilotAwful treatment of a charity
Butters John Bee Newcastle-under-Lyme misled a charity that supports people in need and have taken over £5000 of charity money. They wilfully allowed a charity to rent a property that was not fit for use. What's to stop them exploiting members of the public if they are willing to exploit a charity.They need to refund the money they have taken from TWOCO, let them out of the contract and apologise if they have any morals at all.
Dear C, Thank you for your feedback, which we believe to be in response to a recent social media post. For clarity, we would like to highlight that this is connected to the letting of a commercial retail premises, rather than a domestic dwelling; our Newcastle under Lyme branch are in no way connected to this transaction. We regret that the tenant doesn’t feel the property is fit for purpose. We are working with the tenant and the landlord to come to a solution but as the contract is signed the decision rests with the landlord. Unfortunately, due to Government imposed restrictions, we were unable to offer an in-person viewing and sent the tenant a short video of the property which was recorded prior to lockdown. The tenant ultimately made the decision to sign the lease, having had the time and opportunity to have this reviewed, and paid the rent for the first year in its entirety in advance; this was not a requisite of the letting but rather a decision made by the tenant. It's an unfortunate situation and we’ll continue to work with both sides in an attempt to come to a satisfactory outcome.bjb Commercial team.

TrustpilotMoving House Made Easy!
Moving house is usually a stressful time, but having a professional team like the one at the Newcastle-under-Lyme branch sort out the end to end process certainly eased a great deal of the stress.I was especially pleased with the service Emma Spanton provided. Nothing seemed any trouble and any queries I had were dealt with promptly and courteously. I had regular communication with Emma which saw my sale through to a successful completion.Hopefully I will never be in the need for estate agents again, but If I did then BJB would be my first choice.Many thanks,Jamie
JamieThank you so much for your 5 star review for the service you received from us and I know Emma will be particularly thrilled to receive such praise for a job well done. Wishing you many happy years in your new home.RegardsJulia Bramfitt CPEA FNAEABranch ManagerButters John Bee

TrustpilotI recently purchased a property in…Nantwich
I recently purchased a property in Nantwich, Cheshire; the agent was BJB Nantwich office. From the first viewing, with a lovely, friendly & helpful lady - Lisa - I was impressed with the professionalism, punctuality and attention to detail right through to the completion of the purchase. What I was particularly impressed with was the level of communication - Lisa ensured both she and I was fully up to date throughout the process and even on occasion provided information ahead of my own solicitor! I would thoroughly recommend the Nantwich office if you are looking to buy a property in Nantwich.
Hello and thank you for taking the trouble to leave us such a favourable review. We’re delighted that you have had such a good experience when dealing with us.As you’ve seen, Lisa is an asset to us and we receive many lovely reviews for our service, many of which mention her.I’m lucky to work with such a great team here and we all enjoy seeing the satisfaction that results from great service. Good luck for the future and please get in touch if we may help in any way at all.Gary Fear, Branch Manager

TrustpilotGreat service and support
After unpleasant situations with one of the other property agency, we decided to try to go with Butters John Bee who also advertised the same flat we were interested in. We have been shown the flat by Elisha Hennessey, who is not only very professional but knows how to listen, respect, and understands the needs of the clients. Despite having limited time for our appointment she went extra mile to show us another apartment, that (after what we have discussed with her) would be more suitable for us. She did not push us with taking decision nor rushed while viewing the flat. What is more she showed interest in what we think and feel, and in case of anything that could be repaired or improved she spoken nicely about the landlord and assured us that they would fix whatever needed before we move in. She was very friendly and engaged herself in conversation, making us felt valued. Thank you very much Elisha! When we met she said she just started working for BJB two weeks before. For us it seemed like she was doing the job for ages! Well mannered and a lovely person!
Dear Anna&nasim, Thank you for taking the time to leave us feedback. We are pleased to hear about your experience with us. We hope to be of service to you again in the future. Best wishes, butters john bee Wolverhampton

TrustpilotThis is a terrible company to use
This is a terrible company to use. They never return calls or emails. Would never use them again and would tell anyone who is considering using them to be aware.Sold my house through them and had nothing but headache. When I went to collect keys to withdraw property from market, they took me seriously. Very expensive fees for a company that does not value its paying customers

The only way this company can improve is to be shut down they are liars. I would not trust them. They take your money and they take the tenants money Thousands of pounds, and then don’t give a s££t about anybody I will never use these people ever ever ever again stay well clear

TrustpilotDon't touch with a bargepole
BJB used to have a good reputation. However the Newcastle branch has really let them down. They took advantage of the COVID pandemic to con a local charity out of £5000 pounds by getting them to sign a lease based on a video. The charity trusted BJB, but when they were to move in they found it in a disgusting state, unfit and without fire escapes. Do the right thing BJB. Refund the money and apologize.

TrustpilotSelling dreams indeed.
Selling dreams indeed. My friend Deborah has rented a property to help support vulnerable migrant women, and due the coronavirus, she wasn't allowed a proper viewing. BJB have clearly taken advantage of this fact - when Deborah moved in there was an improper fire escape, there were bags of rubbish strewn about the place, and there was not even a boiler! This is outrageous and yet another example of landlords' & their agents' contempt for renters.

TrustpilotCustomer service recovery! 5*
We recently experienced what you would call a winter nightmare. The boiler broke leaving us with no hot water or heating. However, after speaking with Natalie I was left feeling assured and her main priority. Natalie remained in contact from start to finish. Within a few hours it was sorted. Thank you Natalie. All the best for 2021.

TrustpilotSelling Mums House
I recently helped my mother move house and used the services of Butters John Bee.They were professional, competitive and no hard sell, but what really made a difference was the way they looked after my mother who had not long been widowed. All the staff, Josh and Cathy but to name a few made what could have been a traumatic time so much easier. She even calls in to their office for a coffee!!Thank you so muchDavid Calvert
