GoogleRang at 10:15 am to enquire about a potential property- name taken by a friendly, knowledgeable and well informed receptionist. She promised a call back from the property handler within an hour. 11:05 am received a call from Bill Mckelvey who promptly arranged a viewing of the property @ 13:15.
Viewing was professional , friendly and informative. Property was as described on the website.
Professionally handled in all aspects and I would have no hesitation to recommend their services . Many thanks π

GooglePaid Β£40 application fee, and was told the apartment was mine upon getting my guarantor to sign the lease in the presence of a solicitor. The date for this was picked, roughly 200 was paid to the solicitor which was confirmed to be happening the day before, and upon presentation of this signature which was done the next day, I was told they are no longer letting the apartment. Had the worst experience from start to finish with the application process and made this known early to which Bill encouraged me to get the solicitor and sign. No offer of reimbursement. Not happy. I feel I was played.

GoogleAbsolutely pathetic! Needs thoroughly investigated for his fraudulent mobey grabbing/robbing set up. A complete and utter bully who thinks he makes up the law and what he says goes.. cant wait to see the day his little empire is made accountable fir the Β£1000s hes took off people who he has no intention of renting to.

GoogleIf I could give 0 out of 5 I would have. Such a horrible man Bill McKelvey is. He told tenants of his that my parents (that live beside these tenants) are horrible, always complaining and take no notice of them. This is so unprofessional of an estate agent. Shame on you! For your information my parents are sick and you really donβt care how noisy a tenant you put in. Complete joke.

GoogleHe will do you out of your deposit no matter how spotless your property is, a most two faced man I have never met. Avoid him, and if you can and keep your wits about you. Money grabber!
I wish there was less than one star.

GoogleSadly, theres no zero star option available for this charlatan - a truly exceptionally bad estate agent, who has about as much charm and personality as a carrier bag full of fresh vomit. Unprofessional, untrustworthy and unpleasant in every respect - avoid.

GoogleRarely would I post such a negative review on a small business but it seems 1 star may be too much for this company. Other customers appear to have the same experience. If you want a hassle free rental, to be treated like a human being, and to ever see your deposit again, AVOID. Socially distance yourself from their door.

GoogleI recently bought my first home and Bill was the estate agent. He was so helpful and nothing was too much hassle! My first viewing was at 8pm on a Friday night because of work commitments. Highly recommend and will use Bill again!

GoogleIf you can, go for another agent and avoid this one like your life counts on it. I have rented for c. 15 years, both directly with landlords and through agents and have had positive relationships even with the more challenging β¦

Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
