Buying my 1st house is stressful enough but My Go to person who helped through the whole process was Gin Kaur,
Nothing was to much trouble and she was always available to provide me with updates on what's happening.

GoogleSmart Homes is a fabulous Estate Agent situated in the heart of Solihull. We sold our property through them and found the team to be very professional and thorough with their work. The team we worked with were amazing, very friendly and patient with the endless questions that were thrown at them. I would personally recommend Smart Homes to anyone looking at selling/ renting their property out or even buying as we had no problems at all and everything went very smoothly.

GoogleFor the whole sales process from marketing, viewings and negotiation through to completion Smart Homes were incredibly efficient, professional and friendly.
Throughout the sale communication was excellent, continually keeping us informed of every step along the way.
I couldn't recommend the team at the Shirley office strongly enough, they made my sale a positive and well managed experience.

GoogleIt is a joke. We rented a property at longmore road through smart home on 19th September 2018, it was the biggest mistake I have ever made in my life, the staff Alan was really good, he showed us around and very professnal, however the utility room started leaking at November 2018, I have reported it to Jo who worked at letting section, nothing has been done, I have chased it up through the phone so many times, nobody paid any attention, when outside raining, our house will raining inside, I wish this system allow me add some images, you can not image how bad it is the damp situation, I had two young children live with me. I should not say I am voting for their service as no service was privided to us, We decided to move out in the end, We spent Β£250 to get sombody to clean the house entire out, my boy said it is 100 times better than we moved in, however agency advised the rubbish bin was inside kitchen(It was there when we moved in)and a few marks on the wall, they want to charge us Β£100 now.

GoogleSmart homes have been great through a really challenging move. We moved to them from another estate agent after 2 failed buyers and then put our house back on the market as Liz Truss tanked the economy. Through all of this they have been positive, professional and have given great advice and we have finally got there! Debbie especially has been such a help, walking alongside us and negotiating all the challenges in a highly competent, efficient and kind way. She has been a life line. Thanks.

Louise who valued and sold the property was so professional and I felt so confident in her abilities to sell it, and Gin, who looked after the sale post-offer, was just incredible. Gin has kept me informed (even when we had some tough hurdles to jump) and has been a rock throughout the whole process. I can't thank them enough!

GoogleMy abysmal experience was with the Lettings team so thatβs more who this review is aimed at but as far as Iβm concerned, for such a βsuccessfulβ business, they are the epitome of whatβs wrong with the rental process.
They have constantly chopped and changed appointments for viewings with no real care to how it impacts the potential clients schedule. I was even told βwell if it doesnβt work for you, weβll just cancel the viewingβ - this was less than 24hrs before the appointment.
Also, putting someone in an uncomfortable position by forcing them to choose between being late for work, and making a property viewing is disgusting - appalling attitude towards customers and some serious accountability needed for the child-like level of organisation and communication.

Dear Nunya,
I am sorry the experience you have received from the Lettings department is disappointing. I assure you the department manager takes customer service extremely seriously. I will forward your comments to the appropriate person to investigate in full, however, Smart Homes Lettings has now merged with John Shepherd Lettings as of 28th January 2022 and is no longer part of Smart Homes sales.

GoogleI have been dealing with Smart Homes for many, many years now, not only to purchase residential property, but also having sold many of my properties with them.
I am a local, independant, property developer who relies on pure proffesionalism, honesty, customer service and communication..... Smart Homes deliver on all of the above, and much more.
Jamie Smart has always given me sound advice, accurate valuations and the best customer service. The after sales service is also second to none, as anyone who has been through the 'what could be' stressful selling procedure, would know.
Helen Sizer, who is the office manager and head of after sales, has many years of experience and is excellent In her profession, making sure her and her team keep all parties fully upto date on the progression of the sale/ purchase and making sure everything runs as smoothly and as swiftly as possible.
Just to summarise, if you are thinking of buying or selling a property, then I would highly recommend using Smart Homes Estate Agents.... Everytime!
Looking forward to continuing to work with Jamie and His Team in 2018 and onwards.

GoogleFelt pressurised into renting. Isold my property as I was splitting up with my partner.she wanted to rent but I wanted to buy and had found a beautiful property and had an offer accepted. Scare tactics were used as I was told by Gin the sales progesser I could loose my sale if it didn't proceed quickly as my buyers would pull out.This was at a time I suffered a family bereavement ( mother and father ).They gave the buyer all the attention and service even though I was paying the fees. I felt I had no alternative but to withdraw my offer.I am now in a damp rented flat instead of the house I wanted to buy. Just sales people interested with sales targets. A DIABOLICAL SERVICE FOR Β£3500 . Suits and fancy talk don't make good estate agents. With all the good reviews people put on about the progression team it looks like I was unfortunate to have the worst one in the team.This has cost me thousands, money I built up in equity has now been lost by using this company. What I thought would be the best estate agents given their 5 star rating? turned out to be the worst. There are cheaper and more efficient agents locally.

GoogleWe have sold 2 properties with smart homes over the last 12 months.
Louise Oβ Conner handled our sales with lots of feedback coming our way.
Once they were sold we were handed over to the sales progression team with Debbie Guest looking after us (we specifically asked for Debbie on the 2nd property after her involvement on the 1st)
We couldnβt of asked for anything more from Debbie. She was on the ball and chased all the parties at every point and new exactly what was happening within our chain.
Debbie always called us with regular updates and if we had any questions was able to answer and put our minds at rest.
It was great to have both Louise and Debbie in our corner through this process.
