GoogleI rented a property, gave my notice to leave the property, the landlord approved the return of deposit after we left. And John shepherd have now kept a hold of this deposit after saying it’ll be returned. It’s been a month now and I’ll still waiting for it with no up dates from them and no contact other then when I’m chasing them for it. No answers as to what’s happened or why it’s taken so long this is ridiculous and outrageous. You was quick enough to take the money but won’t return it.

TrustpilotSurreal experience with these vile agents
An unimaginable nightmarish experience with this despicable company. As a tenant I would not believe this could happen in England with all the laws that are meant to protect tenants. Where do I start? Unlawful repossession in a pandemic. Illegal entry to the property, taking my post, sending photos of it to me, harassment, threats, sending weird contractors to spy on and sexually harass me. Staff are awful. Think they are professionally qualified legal representatives when they are estate agents. Diabolical attitude towards tenants. Problems from day one. It meant to be fully managed but always refered me to the landlord for repairs, which did not get done. Not to mention there scam reposit scheme. That is pushed on to and miss sold to tenants. I'm not through dealing with them as I'm trapped in an awful mess trying to get out of the nightmare that is John Shepherd Lettings. I suggest tenants stay clear of this agency especially vulnerable people or single womanEdit. In response to the underneath reply by John Shepherd. I tried to raise a complaint on several occasions but my complaint was refused to be looked into. I have it all in writing. They are 100 per cent aware of this matter.

TrustpilotGreat experience
I am a first time renter so I was pretty clueless going into the process. I ended up viewing and being offered a property with John Shepard. My experience with them has been great & I don’t think I’d change the estate agent I am with. I have dealt with Claire, Vijay & Caitlin. Claire made my moving process so easy & Caitlin has been fantastic with any issues I have had. I am lucky for a first time renter to have had such a positive experience. Thank you guys so much. Would highly recommend these guys.

Caitlin was helpful and reacted swiftly in assisting me to get my deposit back, after my tenancy with the landlord came to the end. I won't hesitate to recommend her should anyone need to rent/lease their property as I believe she will also do a good job for her clients.

Ellis who I saw today was very pleasant and well mannered. He helped me receive my parking pass this morning and although he was already dealing with another tenant he still made sure to greet me and ensured that he would deal with me next. Although it was a wait, granted he was busy, he was apologetic and very kind.

Huge huge huge thanks to John Shepherd for this smooth transition to finding a new home! Megan has been an absolute star, making this somewhat daunting process so much easier and more comfortable! Despite my many questions, she's always been on hand to help quickly and efficiently! It's been a really positive experience thanks to her and I've found a fantastic new home. I've moved a few times before but John Shepherd really have been the most supportive agents I've come across so genuinely thank you.

John Shepard have been very supportive and helpful. Megan who I had a viewing with for a property I now live at has been truly helpful, friendly and understanding. I was looking for a place asap and she managed to get a lot sorted for me & I moved in within 2 weeks of viewing. The property was clean, furnished & well looked after. Megan is also very polite and helpful as well as other staff members at John shepherd. A great environment with very polite staff and great customer service. I would definitely recommend :)

I have almost finished my rental process with John shepherd and I have been very impressed and satisfied with the process from start to finish. Brendan Pearce in particular did my viewing and has assisted me throughout the whole process. I knew what was next and was completely at ease with what to expect and what I needed to do so I had a smooth process and minimal stress. Everything was dealt with in a timely manner and I felt that Brendan genuinely wanted to secure me the tenancy and always a pleasure to talk to! Would highly recommend

We have dealt with Megan through this whole process of getting our 1st apartment. Its been difficult for us as I am moving country and Megan has been a great help showing us different places when we only had limited time available. When we found the apartment we wanted she was straight on to the landlord. She kept us updated with everything as we were waiting on feedback to see did we get it. She made it ten times easier for us and any other suitation we have had when moved in it was sorted by Megan. So we appreciate all her help 😊

My experience of John Shepherd Estate Agents has been nothing but brilliant. I had lots of queries, questions and worries about the process but these were all put at ease by Jack Richardson. He was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Jack was professional and had my best interests at heart. He would always be just a phone call away and always made me feel important rather than just another sales statistic. The team at John Shepherd were always friendly and professional and I would highly recommend.
