Passed referencing, then ghosted, a 'fully furnished' flat that kept losing furniture

My experience was quite different. I passed referencing for a gorgeous "fully furnished" flat with sea views in Birchington, and then came the silence. No replies to my emails, and getting anyone to pick up the phone was a saga of its own. When I finally got through, I was told the agent handling it was away on holiday. I'd asked whether the landlady would replace the missing bedframe. The agent was visibly reluctant, which, looking back, felt like someone who already knew the answer. And sure enough: no, she wouldn't. My second viewing was booked for the very day the holding deposit was due to expire, with the inventory meant to be done the day before. When I arrived: no inventory done, and now the mattress and the sofa had vanished too. No explanation. Despite there being no inventory and no tenancy agreement, I was pushed to pay the rental deposit, plus the move-in date was postponed. The holding deposit only came back after I asked for it. A day later, the same ad was live again, a "fully furnished" flat with sea views (the views, at least, are real) in Birchington. The bitter part: I'd turned down another flat I would have loved, for this one. So here I am, still without a place, still hopping to and fro between temporary roofs over my head.

Reassuring Advisor during a 7 month sale

During a torturous 7 month sale, Emily Stickler was a constant reassuring advisor and voice of reason. Legalities aside, Miles and Barr team were courteous and efficient.

Excellent service from Howard. From start to completion, he was very professional, capable, and responsive to all of my queries. I was not looking forward to the whole process, but Howard not only secured a prompt sale at a good price, he also minimised the inevitable stress points. Howard was recommended to me by a friend and I too would have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone. Thankyou!

Not for the vulnerable .

I was less than impressed with the sales team who promised me the earth until they had our signatures on the contract, then coerced into dropping the price of our property in less than two weeks. We also had to deal with a staff member who was often rude and abrasive who upset both me and my husband. We are both elderly and a bit vulnerable and would have benefited from kinder handling. Once we had a buyer our sale and new purchase was coordinated by Louise Daley who I cannot praise enough. She chased everything quickly, kept us fully informed and was always very friendly polite and professional. I would have rated it lower if not for her.

Adam was great. On giving me a valuation on my property he gave all the information I needed to organize my move. Also I liked that he asked about what my next move was, and he was able to advise me on that as well. I felt confident with the information Adam gave me and feel confident about using miles and barr est. Thank you.

Big thank you.

I would like to say a big thank you to Phil Hopkins for making the whole viewing process so easy. He was helpful and informative and had endless patience especially as I have viewed the property a few times.

As a first time buyer

As a first time buyer, I cannot fault Miles & Barr one bit. From point of viewing, all the way through to exchange I have felt supported, listened to, understood and well taken care of! For context, I have had a very difficult sale, that’s been going on for over 14 weeks that has caused blood/sweat/tears and sleepless nights! I was assigned Debbie Thwaites to my case and I have to say without her - I wouldn’t have got through it! Not only did she provide professional guidance & advice, she was emotionally supportive which was above all, the most important part to me. She listened when I needed to rant, she bigged me up when I needed a boost, she laughed when I needed cheering up, and was a shoulder to cry on! Debbie needs true recognition for her dedication to the role. Alongside this, I also had James Cussen step into the case and I couldn’t fault him either, he was extremely helpful, offering some really helpful guidance where suitable, very communicative, supportive, understanding and overall great. Honestly, without these 2 people I would’ve given up months ago. In addition to this, whenever I rung the Ashford office, I always had friendly voices answer the phone, which really helped & made a difference!! Miles & Barr really do care. I stand by that and will definitely coming back if I need to sell in the future!

Becky White was always available and easy to contact with any queries or questions we had about the purchasing of our new house. Despite some of the unforeseen complications, Becky was on hand to ease any concerns we had and to make sure all parties responded as quickly as possible. Thanks Becky!

I have been renting with Miles and Barr for nearly 3 years now. After a turbulent time with personal issues I can say that Charlotte Thomas at the ramsgate branch has been impeccable with her service and kindness towards me. I couldn’t recommend her as an agent more. Whenever I need anything she is there and responds promptly with whatever I request I need. Thank you for everything!

Melissa is a Stellar Sales Progressor

We were impressed with Melissa Scarsbrook's assistance from the start of the sales progression service at M&B. She made first contact and provided regular updates without the need to chase her - a rarity these days in our long experience of buying and selling houses. Melissa also acted as an effective channel of communication with the other side which really helped us plan our move. Every estate agency needs a Melissa! 👏
