Francesca was extremely professional with a very friendly manner. She was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We've seen a house that we are very interested in and needed our property to be on the market asap. Francesca went the extra mile and the following day we were on the market with 5 viewings booked. I would definitely recommend bjb based on the service we received from Francesca.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Truly Awful Service
We've been dealing with their Hanley (Stoke) branch. They're supposed to be managing a property but have done pretty much zero (apart from take their cut every month), and we're basically dealing with everything ourselves.

"I was hoping that there would be an avenue to leave feedback! A sincere thank you for taking time for the viewing today (Georgina Johnson), it is a rare for such a concise survey to be accommodated. What stood out more-so was your rapport and understanding to Richard and his wife, who I must add are lovely people! It’s not often you witness such a personal service nowadays, hence rest assured of a very positive review." - Matthew Wooten-Jones Viewer for Parotia Properties Limited
Thank you. It is so nice to read your comments and I really appreciate this lovely 5 star review. Regards, Georgina Johnson, Butters John Bee Newcastle Sales.

I would highly advise everyone to avoid Butters John Bee at all costs if you are thinking of buying or selling a property. I used Butters John Bee to sell my home that I loved and lived in for many years. I felt that Butters John Bee did not act on my behalf as the home owner and seller and instead it was purely about commission and ease of sale for them. It is quite clear they are in very close communication with local developers and I felt they were more concerned about getting a good deal for the developers in the area who they are friendly with, rather than get me the best price for my house. Butters John Bee did not fight my corner when buyers were being pushy and in one instance did not really allow me to explore an offer that was made by a couple and instead just went with the developer who had already put an offer in. When I expressed via email I wasn't happy with this approach and wanted to explore other offers than just solely the developer offer, I was unable to get hold of my estate agent for over 24 hours! Communication before this had been back and forth pretty much instantly, I was just so disappointed and frustrated with Butters John Bee pretty much throughout the whole of the selling process. Unprofessional and lazy estate agents. Seriously, go anywhere else for your estate agent needs. Terrible.
Megan, I am so sorry you were not satisfied with our service. As your property had a structural issue, we reached out to developers who would not be put off by the structural problems as well as facilitating viewings for buyers who were not developers. We had to declare the issue to remain compliant with the Consumer Protection Regulations. Georgina kept you notified of events and interest and I have reviewed all notes and emails recorded. May I take this opportunity to wish you well for the future. Julia Bramfitt , Butters John Bee Newcastle, Sales

BJB have been managing a property rental for me for nearly ten years and I have had relatively few issues, although contact has been limited at times and my agent has changed multiple times. Currently, my contact there is Dominika Jaszczyszyn and she has been nothing short of excellent at every point. She ALWAYS comes back with answers when she has said that she would and is reliable, friendly and helpful. As a customer, this is something that you really appreciate and she even manages to make bad news sound not so bad!
Thank you for your kind words. Dominika Newcastle BJB Property Management

Julia at BJB was great and incredibly helpful. From arranging viewings right through to collecting the keys, nothing was any trouble. She even took time out to help as and our solicitors to get some information missing from the other party. Lovely and friendly, and a very generous pack was given to us at the end of the journey. We are very grateful to have had such a helpful person and company behind us that we felt we could turn to if needed.
Thanks Mike! I appreciate you taking the time to leave me this lovely review. Wishing you and Alice loas of happiness in your new home. Regards, Julia Bramfitt, BJB Newcastle, Sales.

Butters John Bee in Newcastle has recently been brilliant trying to get a sale on our property. We have been dealing with Nathan Barclay who has kept us in the loop at every occasion . Giving us feed back on all the viewings as soon as there was anything to report to us. We have already given feed back to the manager to express our thanks for all the hard work that Nathan has put into our case . Keep up the great work Nathan. You’re an asset to the business . We have also had excellent service from other members of the team . Thank you. Mr and Mrs A Hartley
Hi Angela, Thank you for leaving Nathan such a lovely review. Regards Newcastle Sales BJB

Had Claire not joined the team recently I would not be rating so highly! She really turned things around for us in terms of our rental property. Issues that were reported previously and not actioned were resolved, and although this ended up with us having to leave the property due to extensive repairs, she supported us every step of the way in terms of finding another property, keeping us updated promptly, and liaising with our landlord when needed. I have rented several properties in the past and have never dealt with a property agent who has been so helpful, truly. Not only is she knowledgable and efficient, but she talks to you compassionately like a human being and I have never felt like a problem even when things were stressful. Thank you for everything Claire and all the best for the future - if only we could take you with us to look after our new place!
Hi Helena, Thank you so much for this review, Claire is so happy with your kind words. Regards, Stacey Property Management Manager

I've been thoroughly impressed with Butters John Bee since we walked into their office a few weeks ago. Julia and Georgina both have great local knowledge which has been really helpful as we get to know, what is, a new area for us. We've since had multiple viewings with Georgina who is organised, punctual and clearly knows her stuff. We're hoping to get some properties secured in the upcoming auctions so look forward to building a lasting relationship with the agency. Great work team!
Wow! Thanks Mark for such a lovely review. We aim to give the best service we can and it is so nice when someone takes the time to acknowledge we have. Kind regards, Julia Bramfitt and Georgina Johnson, BJB Newcastle Sales

I am extremely dissatisfied with the…
I am extremely dissatisfied with the service I received from Butters estate agent. They failed to communicate with me about the progress of my property sale, ignored my phone calls and emails, and redirected me to a head office that never returned my messages. They also recommended a conveyancing solicitor that was shut down by the CLC (Council for Licensed Conveyancers) the day before I was supposed to move. Butters did not inform me of this situation and I had to take time away from work and waste my time and money to visit their Hanley branch in person because they wouldn't answer my calls. This has caused me a lot of stress and frustration and I do not recommend them to anyone.
Hi,We're sorry to hear about your situation. This isn't the five star level of service we strive for. If you'd like to discuss this further, please email reviews@bjbmail.com with details and we will pass to the relevant team to investigate for you.Thank you

Bought a house from them recently, all good until exchange. Had loads of issues with the house, radio silence from them. No support offered, had to have another survey done for legal purposes. Also turns out the house is on a prepaid gas and electricity meter, no information or keys for these were handed over, we dug them out of a cupboard off our own backs. Appears they're just in it for a pay cheque sadly.
Thank you Ollie. Much appreciated. Nathan Barclay, Butters John Bee, Newcastle Sales

I would definitely use them again!
Thank you again for taking the time to let us know how we did. We hope you have a great day! If you have any further questions, please give us a call. We're always happy to help!
