GoogleOur experience with Ashton Burkinshaw has been great! We had clear instructions throughout the whole process and constant commutation from Ellie and Emma was really helpful. Ellie made everything for us stress free and simple. We would highly reccomend Ashton Burkinshaw! Thomas and Nikita

GoogleI recently rented an apartment through Ashton Burkinshaw and I couldnβt be more pleased with their service. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with the utmost professionalism. The team was incredibly responsive, attentive, and efficient, ensuring everything went smoothly. They took the time to understand my needs, provided clear communication, and were always available to answer any questions I had.
What impressed me most was how seamless the entire renting experience was. They guided me through each step, from the initial viewing to signing the contract, with no hassle. Their attention to detail and commitment to customer satisfaction really stood out. I highly recommend Ashton Burkinshaw for anyone looking for a trustworthy and professional letting agent!

GoogleAt first they were excellent, helpful and friendly and the team offered a good service. Fast forward a few years and the level of service has dropped - whether this is connected to Countrywide or not I do not know.
Unfortunately, it no longer feels like you are dealing with a friendly, local office and instead you are up against a large, faceless corporation where 'towing the Company line' is more important than good customer service (unless that is, you are a customer that is (or will be) making them money).
There was a time when I would have recommended Ashton Burkinshaw in Maidstone to anyone, but sadly now I would tell them to shop around, with the suggestion that they use a different agent - preferably one with a 'face'.

GoogleWhere do I start.. I recently rented a property in the Maidstone area and I am actually appalled by how me and my family have been treated. We have made countless complaints, you can never get through to anyone in the Maidstone branch and any complaints/head office don't seem to exist. The staff that DO answer, are so incredibly rude and never call back when a concern has been raised. The woman in the Maidstone branch couldn't care less if you are happy in your property or not so I would avoid this company as much as possible!!!!!

GoogleWe recently had the pleasure of working with Ashton Burkinshaw Letting Agents, and we couldn't be more impressed with the exceptional service they provided. From the moment we reached out to them, they demonstrated a level of professionalism and dedication that truly set them apart.
With their assistance, we were able to secure an excellent apartment that perfectly met our needs and preferences. What stood out to us the most was their relentless effort and commitment to ensuring that we found the right property. They took the time to understand our requirements and preferences, and then went above and beyond to find us options that exceeded our expectations.
Throughout the entire process, the team at Ashton Burkinshaw Letting Agents demonstrated outstanding customer service. They were always available to answer any questions we had and address any concerns that arose. What truly impressed us was their friendly yet professional conduct. They treated us with empathy and emotional intelligence, putting themselves in our shoes to ensure that we felt supported and valued throughout the entire process.
One aspect that particularly stood out to us was their efficient processing timescale. They understood the urgency of our situation and worked tirelessly to expedite the process without compromising on quality. Thanks to their efforts, we were able to secure our new home in a timely manner, allowing us to transition smoothly and stress-free.
Overall, we cannot recommend Ashton Burkinshaw Letting Agents highly enough. Their dedication, professionalism, and exceptional customer service make them the go-to team for anyone in search of a property.

GoogleStepping into a new rental can feel like diving into uncharted waters, but Ashton Burkinshaw transformed our experience into a serene cruise. Ellie, our ever-reliable first contact, charted the course, keeping us informed and on top of every tide and current, ensuring a smooth voyage into our new home.
The entire crew at Ashton Burkinshaw proved remarkably attentive, always ready to lend a hand or answer a question, even after we'd secured our keys. Their attentiveness extended beyond the initial move-in; even when minor storms arose after we'd settled in, they responded promptly and effectively, offering calm seas for peace of mind.
What truly set Ashton Burkinshaw apart was their genuine understanding of the tenant's journey. They weren't just landlord representatives dictating terms; they were partners in our housing adventure. Their communication was open and transparent, with all documents meticulously prepared and delivered well before the move-in date. Even when suggesting a slight improvement, perhaps providing a quick guide to deciphering the mysteries of meter readings, it was delivered with a spirit of friendly collaboration, not bureaucratic rigidity.
Their dedication to tenant satisfaction shone through every interaction. Every member of the crew, exuded a genuine desire to make our rental experience exceptional. This commitment to excellence is rare in the often-turbulent waters of the letting agency world, and it's why, come next port of call, we'll set our sails for Ashton Burkinshaw without a doubt. They're more than just letting agents; they're the trusted navigators who make finding safe harbor a truly delightful journey.
They treat their tenants like family, going the extra mile to ensure a smooth and happy experience. Ellie and the entire team deserve a standing ovation! We'll definitely be recommending them to all our friends and family.

GoogleAvoid this Estate Agents at ALL cost. If you are a landlord they will antagonise your tenants and create issues so they can charge for the hassle. Tenants you are basically going to at some point if you have not got your tenancy agreement tattooed on the back of your eyelids going to be gaslighted by management. Check all documents as multiple occasions I've experienced documents be doctored and been gaslighted by the very unprofessional and devoid of compassion manager Emma DO NOT deal with her!! She will Google anything and send it to you, as an official document. Always contact citizens advice for an independent opinion!! I've dealt with awkward estate agents but this Team are next level unprofessional. This is the Maidstone branch Avoid! Avoid! Avoid!

GoogleWent to view a property today in allington. Which required two busses from where I am with my 2 year old in the pram on a cold and wet afternoon. Wasnβt given a house number walking around in the cold and wet trying to find the property off what looked closest to the house in the pictures. To find the agent had already left and had barely waited 5 minutes. Despite a call to inform we were running a little late due to traffic. Absolutely unprofessional service from mark (I think his name was) and the AB team In Maidstone, hope the landlord sees this comment and thinks twice about you looking for perspective Tenants for his property if this is how you treat them!!!
