Jon and the team have been proactive throughout the sale of our house. We had an offer within 3 weeks of the house going on the market. Beals gave us twice the amount of viewings than we got from our other estate agent.Jon spent 2 days showing my partner and I around different properties in our desired area and budget, this was an invaluable process to finding what we wanted in a property and ultimately purchasing our new home.

TrustpilotBeals well recommend worth 5 stars !!
Team beals very good from renting out my property and selling it.Hayley worked very well on my house. Hayley got my house back up to scratch for selling my house after they rented my house out for three years. Team beals done a Stirling job renting my house out,I was 0n the beals gold plan. When I decided to put it on the market and the tenants contract finished. Beal were then asked to sell it they got hayley and the dedecorating and cleaning team for one week, to bring the property to decent state.They did an amazing job. The property was put on the market it was sold within 24 hours.Three lots of people looked at it all put offers and one couple put in the full asking price.Beals all day long!!! Mr Barker happy customer!!

TrustpilotRecent House sale
It has been a pleasure in appointing Beals for a recent house sale. The whole team were extremely helpful throughout the conveyancing experience. I was kept informed throughout and even during this past testing pandemic, Beals were able to go above and beyond. I’d like to single out Mr Brett Gamblin and his Portsmouth team for the professional approach and fine attention to detail, I would certainly recommend Brett and his team.

FacebookTerrible customer service , not helpful, first to charge for everything what they possibly can. 1.Left flat on much better condition then I received , still awaiting for deposit refund as it’s “being considered “ ,
2.found new tenant myself still was deducted for “re marketing the property” and a week of their processing documents for new tenancy.
3. Poor communication, disrespectful.
4. Inventory say all “ fully working order” “ professionally cleaned” - be careful check it all and challenge it all.
For sure will never use them even if they will have a bargain of the year on offer
Avoid

TrustpilotA Stressful and unprofessional experience
Bad experience with this estate agency. Even though we put a holding deposit down and were told we had to sign and pay for the property within a week of doing so, it took 2 months to finally sign the contract - 3 days before we were due to move in (bare in mind we had to also move out of our old property so we're extremely concerned we would have no where to live!!). We made constant attempts to pay the deposit and first month's rent, to no success until we finally moved into the property (we called the landlord directly to get the keys) . I received a corse phone call from Beals asking why we have moved in if we haven't paid yet. I told them we tried to pay but they hadn't given us any information to do so. The only way I can describe their response was stroppy, which was outrageous considering we made every effort to pay and it was all on them to hand over the details!! They kept blaming it down to staff holidays which was unprofessional as it isn't down to me to work around their holidays, especially when there is a risk of being homeless due to not signing/paying until the move in day. This was an extremely stressful experience as we had to move out of our old property by a specific date and were extremely concerned about the cross over period (and therefore being homeless) as we hadn't signed or paid for the property, due to their staff shortages, until the day we moved in. Finally, they were extremely bad at responding to emails, often simply ignoring them until I phoned up a week later to receive an answer.

TrustpilotCompletely awful company
Completely awful company. They don't let you finish the tenancy in 1 month as it should be,they need 2 months for that. Aswell you will have to contact them every single day and still not having your deposit back after 1 month. Aswell they will enter into your flat with other people,not knocking into the door and show it without any notice and when you not even thinking to move out. Be careful with whose scammers.

TrustpilotA never-ending litany of laziness and possible discrimination...
Had multiple poor experiences with Beals over the last several months...Three times had viewings booked for Saturday, only to get a call Friday afternoon or Saturday morning and the property has sold - no attempt from them to actually do their job and try to get the best price for their customer - they just fob you off last-minute and on to the next one. Then, when you're the buyer in a position to do a viewing and make an offer ASAP they suddenly "can't get you in" during the week (they lost their seller a sale above asking price on one occasion recently due to this attitude - I viewed it during the open day anyway, but by then was too annoyed to make an offer as I'd been told to 'go whistle' a week earlier despite being ready to go). Very disappointing and a bit suspicious that they'll get locals in during the week for viewings, but won't do the same for you if you're not from the area. And if, heaven-forbid, you have a full time job and can only view on Saturday, don't expect them to give a toss!Had several occasions where they've left a property on Rightmove for days or even weeks listed as "for sale" when in fact it's sold. They never apologise for it when you call and get told it's gone already. I think they do this on purpose because there aren't many properties coming up and they want their name showing up in your search results, so they leave them even though it's inconsiderate. You call them, they take your data etc.If you're a buyer, don't count on them to communicate effectively or lift a fingernail. If you're not from the area, expect the 'Cornwall treatment' - where they don't want people coming in from other parts of the country and buying up homes - you get a lesser service as a result. They'll deny it, but that's the simplest way to explain all the issues we've had with them.If you're a seller, don't expect them to do everything they can to achieve the best possible price for your property by following up all credible sales leads (e.g. an offer is made during the week, but there are buyers in a proceedable position with a large budget booked for a viewing on Saturday, yet they won't bother to call them and offer them the opportunity to view earlier or make an offer).They'll argue they're just doing what their customer wants, but buyers are customers too (not that they'll treat you like one) and I doubt the majority of their customers would be happy about them taking liberties with potential buyers on their behalf, unless they just want a quick sale.At the moment, sitting on their hands doing very little for their commission because the market is so strong right now and homes are selling themselves, but give it a year or so, the way the UK is going with inflation and the housing market will slump. Won't be able to be so lazy or selective then.I'd avoid Beals from now on because personally I had much better experiences with some of the well-known online-only agents.
