GoogleImpeccable service, did what they said they would do when they said they would do it (or quicker and better!) and if I asked for something it was never too much effort - they were super helpful. The level of customer service made the whole process smooth and easy especially when as a customer I have a complicated life nothing was too much trouble. Great company to work with would highly recommend.

GoogleJBM Estate Agents provided a fantastic service from the start to the finish of our house buying process. Scott was very quick to respond when we wanted to out our house up for sale quickly and the marketing started immediately. He kept us informed throughout, was extremely professional and friendly and helped us find a suitable buyer within a few weeks. I would highly recommend the business to anyone in the local area.

GoogleScott, Greg & Mark make up an excellent team. Emails, concerns, silly questions all met with a prompt & friendly response. All parts of the process of selling our house were dealt with smartly & efficiently - Mark showed our house to a potential viewer for us while we were away, his lovely manner must have worked wonders as the viewer bought the house - our first & only viewer!

GoogleScott, Greg and Mark recently helped me sell my Holiday Let in Peebles. They knew how much I loved this property and the sentimental value it had. They were all lovely to deal with, friendly, helpful, extremely efficient and slick. I especially loved the way they marketed the property in terms of how they wrote on social media and the pictures of the property were outstanding. I would recommend them a million times over!!! You will be in safe hands and won't be disappointed.

I need not have worried, all was taken on board and my cats were fine.
I truly recommend JBM Estate Agents, as they friendly, professional and make it all run smoothly.

GoogleHaving recently sold our house through JBM, I'm happy to share our very positive experience of doing so. Practically speaking, JBM (i) both explained, and made, the entire process of selling our house as easy as possible; (ii) we were always kept well informed of the sale status at all times, and there was clearly great internal communication, as we received consistent information irrespective of which team member we spoke with; (iii) we found easy access to the team, and all enquiries were met with politeness and professionalism; (iv) the provision of a first rate selling schedule was rapid, showing our property to the standard it deserved. The quality of the text, photographs and video were excellent. I would also highlight that the lovely video of the interior/exterior of our property was undertaken by a highly experienced dedicated 3rd Party, meaning that it was a discrete showing of our home, and not a simple rehash of the photographs taken; a practice you will see in many other agents. Nice touch.
I would willingly recommend JBM Estate Agents ( Scott, Greg and Mark) as the premier agents in the Scottish Borders for your property needs, especially if you want folk with an in-depth local market knowledge and experience, and very importantly, great customer service.

GoogleTerrible experience, 3 viewings in 6 months. Lazy and no effort other than putting an advert online. Suggest a price to market the property at then tell you to reduce it below the home report value.

We’re genuinely disappointed to receive this review, as client satisfaction has been our unwavering priority throughout our 14 years in business. This is, in fact, our first instance of negative feedback, as evidenced by the many five-star reviews from clients who have experienced our dedication and commitment firsthand. Our team is deeply committed to delivering the very best results for our clients, and they will be equally disappointed to hear of your concerns. We have always held strong values in genuinely helping clients along their property journeys, and your comments are not reflective of the standards we uphold. We have already corresponded with you directly regarding the matters raised here and wish to note that we offered you advice and support on three separate occasions to help improve outcomes. While it seems this guidance was not taken up, our recommendations, such as pricing adjustments, were made with your success in mind, aligning with current market conditions to encourage a sale. We wish you all the very best with whatever direction you decide to take with your property.
