TrustpilotWinsford branch. Excellent service.
This is the second time we have rented our house with Butters John Bee. I have to say that the WINSFORD branch are excellent. They really help every step of the way and get the right tenants for you. The neighbours also commented on how lovely the tenants have been. I have to say if you are thinking of renting your house or even if you are thinking of renting then this is a great company. REBEKKA and NATALIE and JEMMA go above and beyond. Thank you for making something that could be so stressful so much easier especially when getting a new kitchen and windows fitted when new tenants are moving in. You make sure all parties are informed and this, for me, is the most important thing!

We had the most fantastic service from the Lettings team at the Newcastle-Under-Lyme branch. We live out of the area so having trust & confidence in the team was so important to us as we physically were unable to deal with the process of securing a new tenant. We were treated with complete professionalism and would have no hesitation in recommending Butters John Bee. This is not the first time we have used BJB and will continue to do so in the future. Thank you.

TrustpilotIncompetent!
I found the house buying process through BJB incredibly frustrating. I regularly had to send 2 or 3 emails before I got a response. They also insisted I attended "an hour long appointment" for which I had to take an 80 mile round trip - when I got there it only actually took 10 minutes and basically consisted of them try to convince me to use 'associated' solicitor. At one point I had an incredibly patronising conversation where a member of staff tried to tell me that I had misunderstood the valuation report - I had not misunderstood, they had or they were lying. They also lied about passing messages onto the vendor, and everything took soooooo long!Basically, if I hadn't have had direct contact with the vendor my house purchase would never have succeeded.

TrustpilotTerrible way to run an estate agency!
Terrible way to run an estate agency!Had a viewing booked asked them to wait until we at least viewed the property before accepting any offers, rang us 2 hours before the viewing to say it was sold....Didn't even give us a chance!Attempted to view said property from the day it was advertised but they couldn't accommodate, eventually arranged a viewing and they go and sell it before we even had a chance to offer?Poor property owner lost out I think without even realising - Sell quick, fast profits, never mind about the seller and their best interests. I'll never call these people again - AwfulAs for the reply below, it was actually YOU who couldn’t accommodate me in viewing, as also mentioned we were cash buyers with a substantial budget, I also asked you to let me know if any offers were made to at least give me some opportunity to consider a higher offer!Please don’t bother making contact, I’ll find my own property with agents that have a better idea on how to treat clients.

Good afternoon Alan, thank you for your feedback and I am sorry you were unable to view this property of your choice. When speaking to you yesterday I did suggest a viewing as soon as possible even that day, but you were unable to do so. Our ways of working are very clear and we have an obligation to our vendors to give them any offer received straight away and then act on their instructions. In this case the offer was considerable higher than asked for and the persons concerned were proceedable as their sale is completing this week. As a result the vendor choose to accept the offer and asked us to refrain from any further viewings. Again our apologies and hope you are successful in finding your new home soon, we would be more than happy to help you with this.

The team at the Wolverhampton branch (Elisha & Luke) are the kindest most professional people I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. My circumstances were difficult but they afforded me the best of personal service, excellent advice and a fast, reliable process. Truly are second to none! They have supported me just when I needed it the most, secured a better future for me, my son and even my pet dog!

We are letting our house through butters john bee and I must say that our initial experience was not up to the mark ! Since we raised our concerns, Liz from Hanley branch took over and everything started moving in the right direction very quickly. Liz replies to emails within few hours and has always been very helpful and supportive. She has managed to turn our experience around and we are now even thinking of expanding our portfolio through bjb ! Happy to give 'excellent' to Liz !

Just brought our first home using Butters John Bee Newcastle under Lyme branch , which our main contact was Deborah Lomas both her and the team were brilliant from start to finish always called us providing us updates. I would recommended Butters John Bee to anyone that is looking for a quick and easy sale or purchase. They also have an in house mortgage advisor called Lee Faulkner who works for just mortgages based in the Newcastle-under-Lyme Butters John Bee branch , the service Lee provided was outstanding defiantly worth keeping it in house which defiantly helps the process from start to finish.Thanks for everything Ashley johnson

TrustpilotVery poor communication
I made a cash offer which i was told had been accepted. Only to find the next day on a second viewing i was surrouded by other families - all allowed to view and bid. Apparently i should have showed that i had proof of money straightaway otherwise the property was still on the market. They should have explained that when i put my offer in. Then a second bidder came forward. Given a full and final offer day and time i reinstated my cash offer. The next day after the deadline i was given the run around to change some paperwork i had submitted and raise my offer yet again. I was given the belief that all was good. A while later a phone call to say i didn't win the property. So used to get other bidder to bid even more. So that's how i feel Used. Should have stopped at the full and final offer. Not get me and other bidder to up bids further. I had the money - they asked if could complete without survey and searches and i said yes. Just messed me about. In answer Hannah it is the Stafford branch - i have emailed the lady that dealt with me and sent this review to her also

TrustpilotSold within a week.....
I was a reluctant seller of my lovely house, but it was time for change. I decided immediately on meeting Lauren, that she would be the one to market my home. It was some six months later that I finally took the bull by the horns and contacted her again. She advised me that my home would be attractive to purchasers and would sell quickly. I was admittedly just a touch sceptical, But signed her up on the Monday. I had viewings immediately and offers flying in and then my home went on to 'best and final offer'. By Saturday, I had accepted an offer. The staff that did the viewings for me, treated my home respectfully. I couldn't face showing people around myself. I would not hesitate to recommend Butters John Bee in Winsford to market your home too.

TrustpilotGreat service from the Northwich team
Great service from the Northwich team. While the overall process wasn't smooth, for issues outside BJBs control, they always knew what was happening with my purchase, no matter who I spoke to in the office. My main contact, Jacqui, was ace, has clearly been doing this a while, was always able to help me make progress or even just listen to me moaning about solicitors. It was reassuring to know I was going through the purchase with such an attentive team.

TrustpilotAwful treatment of a charity
Butters John Bee Newcastle-under-Lyme misled a charity that supports people in need and have taken over £5000 of charity money. They wilfully allowed a charity to rent a property that was not fit for use. What's to stop them exploiting members of the public if they are willing to exploit a charity.They need to refund the money they have taken from TWOCO, let them out of the contract and apologise if they have any morals at all.
C · 1 June 2020
Agent replied · 12 June 2024
Dear C, Thank you for your feedback, which we believe to be in response to a recent social media post. For clarity, we would like to highlight that this is connected to the letting of a commercial retail premises, rather than a domestic dwelling; our Newcastle under Lyme branch are in no way connected to this transaction. We regret that the tenant doesn’t feel the property is fit for purpose. We are working with the tenant and the landlord to come to a solution but as the contract is signed the decision rests with the landlord. Unfortunately, due to Government imposed restrictions, we were unable to offer an in-person viewing and sent the tenant a short video of the property which was recorded prior to lockdown. The tenant ultimately made the decision to sign the lease, having had the time and opportunity to have this reviewed, and paid the rent for the first year in its entirety in advance; this was not a requisite of the letting but rather a decision made by the tenant. It's an unfortunate situation and we’ll continue to work with both sides in an attempt to come to a satisfactory outcome.bjb Commercial team.

TrustpilotMoving House Made Easy!
Moving house is usually a stressful time, but having a professional team like the one at the Newcastle-under-Lyme branch sort out the end to end process certainly eased a great deal of the stress.I was especially pleased with the service Emma Spanton provided. Nothing seemed any trouble and any queries I had were dealt with promptly and courteously. I had regular communication with Emma which saw my sale through to a successful completion.Hopefully I will never be in the need for estate agents again, but If I did then BJB would be my first choice.Many thanks,Jamie
