★★★★★ 5/5

Google

I found them extremely kind and efficient, but also very respectful and supportive toward my mother, who found this process hard.. but they made it so much easier. David and Alan, gave us excelled advice & guidance and worked tirelessly to get us an amazing deal.. we could not have done this without them. I would also like to show appreciation for the other members of the office who were all very polite.

Amazing team at the tamworth branch

Amazing team at the tamworth branch, I could not fault them, from the minute we looked around the house until the minute we picked the key's up and if you need a mortgage, countrywide mortgages within the branch is definitely the one to use suki is amazing and continued to support after we got out key's. Thank you

It was a very easy and simple experience, everyone at Bairstows Eve have helped us through every step of the way to purchasing the property.

Bairstowe Eves recently sold our home in Plaistow. They got it on the market very quickly and got a confirmed sale very quickly. They helped us through the process and got our home sold above asking price.

I called in just earlier, looking to rent my 2 bed flat, whoever answered the phone seriously needs to go a training course. Won't recommend these guys, come across as not bothered as they said we have enough business, so I will take mine somewhere else.

'I was totally satisfied with Bairstow…

'I was totally satisfied with Bairstow Eves during the sale of my house.They kept in touch with me and communicated throughout the whole process. Their explanations were clear. Each member of the staff that I had dealings with were friendly and personable and they helped to make everything easy from beginning to end. In particular, they were extremely quick to put my house on the market and worked very quickly to arrange the initial viewings. Their emails were friendly and not too formal.

You won’t find better agents! The service provided by Maria and David during our house buying has been outstanding throughout. They are experienced, patient and honest, keen to set realistic expectations, which we found invaluable. Thank you both so much!

Frinton on sea branch

Frinton on sea branch, Jodie went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that this House sale went ahead. With problem after problem mounting against the sale she was the glue that held the whole deal together. I'll be eternally grateful to her. What an asset to your company. A+ Mr T Drake

Bairstow Eves Bow-

Karl was our estate agent and I can't explain how helpful and great he was. He stuck with us to find the right property, even though this took a while and eventually helped us find out dream first little flat together (my partner and I) which we have now very happily been in for nearly a year.

Sly, money grabbers

My experience was a short one with Barstow (Sutton branch) when I simply asked to view a property. Confirmed I have my own AIP and without asking she goes on to try and sell me their services. I didn't agree to any financial consultation but they set one up anyway. I said I didn't need it and wasn't able to view the property without one. The fact they don't even ask and just set it up is so sly. Wouldn't recommend for anyone let alone a first time buyer.

If I could leave zero I would

If I could leave zero I would! We recently moved into a rental properrenting threw these cowboys! We've had nothing but problems, first no gas safety checks were conducted, major leak happened from bathroom to the kitchen leaving us with no power, could we get hold of anyone? No! We are left with major damage to our belongings and currently looking for somewhere else to move to! I also feel fro the landlord are they aware that this property is managed by such con artists!

Worst estate agent in London

Would avoid them like a plague. Withheld deposit unlawfully, failing to meet all legislative expectations on returning funds in an appropriate manner. Poor communicators on the whole, but even worse over the phone if you are able to get hold of them. They utilise the art of deception and deceit in check out reports, selective emails chains and delay tactics. Avoid at all costs!

Contract Should Be Illegal

I could write an essay on how bad this company is. Essentially once you sign the contract, you have 14 days under law to cancel, but after that period you have to give them their money. They were badgering me to get my flat on sale for a holiday period, and then they missed the holiday period with their sales event to get it online. Said it would have taken x3 weeks to take the photos and get it online. So I said give me back the keys, as I want to do some extra bits (new hob, lights, breakfast bar). Then I went to purple Bricks who had it online in 2 days, and told Bairstow Eves "I don't care if I have to pay you, I want nothing more to do with you". And complained. So their internal complaints service decided that it was my fault it wasn't online in time because I was holding it up by doing extra work. Even though I had the emails proving the opposite. So then I went to the Ombudsman just to waste more time, and asked them a simple question "When does the contract end?" To which they replied "We can't tell you because we're not legally trained". Then they sent me the code of conduct that the Ombudsman writes which is the legal framework that estate agents write their contracts against. And Bairstow Eves sent an illegible page in response, and said if I signed it I should understand it. So if they (all parties) can't answer a simple question like that, how are members of the public meant to have a full understanding of it? Especially when it mentions duration of the contract is in section 3 (of the estate agent's contract) - then you look for it and it goes: section 1,2,4,5,6,7,8.The bottom line is - they get your signature, and then they can go golfing or whatever else they get up to, and they're legally entitled under British law to their money once you sell with another agent, or find a buyer.* And everything else that's meant to represent consumer rights is a farce. *In terms of finding the buyer: they say they've always got people on the books even before it goes online. That even when another agent finds a buyer, it was them. That they might have told a spouse or sibling who informed your buyer. That if you find a buyer yourself and don't use another agent for two years, there's no way of proving it was you that found them, but the marketing period is indefinite. Even if the contract states the marketing period is for 5 months or so, it will still state it's indefinite at the same time, and they state that from the moment you've signed they've already got interested parties. Etc, etc.

Bairstow eves lettings Romford

Bairstow eves lettings Romford - never do any business with them. They have been charging huge fees from landlords and never return call or email. We have also complained to Customer care team 4 weeks back and there has been no progress in our complaint. The have charged us for annual renewal fee that was not included in the contract and inspite of multiple calls and emails we havent been refunded (all proof emailed to the team multiple times). None of the staff members are professional and inspite of multiple emails and calls we get informed that their manager will call us and they dont know anything about the matter.

Excellent service from the Stratford office, especially Katrina and Ian. The team are friendly, professional and communicative and they know the area well - I highly recommend them for anyone looking to buy, sell or let in E15.

Bairstow eves Bow branch etc

Bairstow eves Bow branch etc. Called me back but because I was unable to secure the rented property within 6 days Failed to email me the property information that I requested. Failed to reply to my Whatsapp messages for a whole 4 days and have refused to explain why the property /properties is still advertised on EVERY search engine. Failed to explain why its being let at a different price and have blocked me from whatsapp. Just had an incoming call but they hung up before I could even pick up the phone that is sitting right next to me. Absolutely disgusting behaviour from Alan Harvey at Bairstow eves. Zero customer service skills

The agents are nice

The agents are nice, but unfortunately they are capable of lowering the property's price. Despite assurances that the price is final, you shouldn't trust them. I do not recommend.

No care

They don’t care about the state of the properties they rent out . They just want to get paid , keep the owner of the house happy . No rights for tenants , even if you have 6 kids they will serve you a section 21 after living in rubbish conditions and asking for it to be sorted . Minus 5 stars
