GoogleThe slowest office on the planet. Take literally weeks to get back to you. We've been looking for a new house since February (two months) and no luck thanks to them. At their viewings, expect 10 other couples to show up in your time slot, and have 0 chance to look around, everyone gets a minute and a half. I can't count on one hand how many times I called them about pets (they always put no pets, then turns out thats not true), and had to chase them because at the end of the day, next day, nothing. Im still waiting for a call for a viewing two weeks ago where a guy was gonna call me back about a slot saturday lunch.

Hi Edith
We are sorry that you feel we had been slow at responding to you following your application to let a property.
As you are aware the landlord of this property carries out his own viewings. Following your viewing, and you applying for the property, the landlord was still carrying out viewings which he had booked in. We then had the long easter weekend, and as soon as the landlord provided us with his decision we emailed you straight away. We are sorry you were unsuccessful on this occasion.
We have a shortage of rental properties at present and we are receiving a very high demand.
I completely understand your disappointment regarding landlord's decision not to allow pets in their properties, however we must adhere to our landlords wishes. This may change shortly as the government are trying to place a blanket ban on landlords stating no pets, I appreciate this does not help you at this current time.
We hope we can still help you in your search for a property.

GoogleTread with caution:
The last agent I reviewed provided a 5 star service BUT this is by far my worst experience of renting. Rude staff. Expect to wait over 2 weeks when you report an urgent problem. And the attitude of 'it's not your house so get on with it' was the parting shot on my last telephone call.
The system seems to be that a job is raised but then you hear nothing & the lack of customer service afterwards makes every phone call stressful/unproductive. Dire.

GoogleBeware of this agency. They may treat landlords well, but certainly not tenants. When you report an urgent problem, do not count on a quick response. It's very possible that I just came across a stingy owner. This does not change the fact that they should not protect landlords who do not care about the health of a tenant who lives in a house where water is pouring down the walls and mold is growing literally everywhere. They don't even bother to give back the overpaid rent, you have to ask for your money. Not to mention the deposit, which I have been waiting for for over a month. I highly do not recommend it.
Unfortunately googe does not have option to reply but I can't leave it without comment.
Dear Daniel,
I have to deny your words because they are not true. The problem with dampness began before the winter period. With stronger rain, water dripped from the walls. The first worker was probably paid by you to lie about the root of the dampness. As I continued to insist, you sent a decent builder who was horrified to see black mould in every corner. He confirmed that the house is for general renovation, requires a new roof and protection of the walls. Admitted that using a dehumidifier is useless in this case. This is not the lack of heating, which was turned on very often anyway. Otherwise without heating on and at least two extra jumpers, you could freeze in this house. And in response from, in your opinion, generous owners, I heard that now is not the time to do anything.
I just wondering how many tenants before me have been treated this way renting this house. Now, when I moved out landlords decorating house to make it looks nice again, and want to use my deposit to clean after all this work. Ridiculous. Over the years of using various rental agencies, I have never encountered such treatment and never have had problems with getting deposit back. You're using my deposit but you have no documents or invoices for anything.
Regards.

Dear Justyna,
I would like to express my gratitude for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. I deeply regret that your experience with our agency has left you unsatisfied. After a comprehensive review of your case, I feel compelled to address your concerns.
The primary issues raised pertain to the presence of dampness during the winter months. We took the initiative to commission a professional survey to ascertain the root causes of this issue. The findings of the survey suggest that a significant portion of the dampness can be attributed to elevated humidity levels resulting from insufficient heating and ventilation. Additionally, there was a minor water ingress issue detected in the attic. In consultation with our builders, it was recommended that the necessary remediation work be scheduled for the upcoming spring season.
In response to the challenging conditions you faced during the winter, the property owners, whom you referred to as 'stingy,' demonstrated their commitment to resolving the situation. They proactively reduced your monthly rent to assist with the increased heating costs and supplied a dehumidifier to address the humidity concerns.
Regarding the status of your deposit, I wish to inform you that we are in the final stages of processing it. However, as of the time of composing this response, there are still some of your possessions remaining in the property. It is imperative that these items are promptly removed to facilitate the release of your deposit in accordance with our procedures.
Once again, thank you for sharing your concerns with us. If you require any further assistance or have additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Warm regards,
Daniel

Direct reviewsI am a fairly new tenant of Belvoir, and recently having bit off considerably more than I could chew, contacted them on a Saturday morning in desperation because I had a large item of furniture wedged on the stairs! Hayley offered advice and ultimately assistance to help me move the thing when leaving the office!
I was then called back and offered the assistance of Peter who had just popped into the office (lucky old me!). He called round and made short work of my uncooperative furniture, with order restored.
Belvoir I stress is not in the furniture removal business, but they knew my circumstances and came in like the cavalry!
Heartfelt thanks to Peter, -and to Hayley for finding solutions!

Direct reviewsWe have been more than satisfied with the manner in which Belvoir Skipton have dealt with us in connection with our recent move. They kept us in the picture as far as prospective viewing dates were concerned and processed our tenancy application in a timely and professional manner. Since we moved into the property a number of matters have arisen that have and in some cases, still do, need attention (mainly due to it being a recently renovated building). Whenever we have brought these matters to the attention of Charli and Daniel at Belvoir they have immediately chased up the appropriate agencies, sometimes on numerous occasions and things are gradually being sorted out. They have encouraged us to continue to liaise with them until we are completely happy that what needs doing has been done to our complete satisfaction. We would certainly recommend Belvoir should anyone ask our opinion with regard to their customer services.

Direct reviewsWe've had an excellent experience with the Skipton Belvoir team - they knew we were looking for a furnished place and reached out to us with a property they thought we might be interested in (this has never happened with any other letting agency we've used, and we so appreciated this). We ended up getting the property and couldn't be happier. Every person we spoke to/emailed was really helpful and friendly, I felt as though they went above and beyond in assisting us in getting the property. We're so happy with the service you all provided. Thank you so much!

Direct reviewsI do not do reviews, but sadly in this day and age they are seem to be a necessary tool for business. Given a comparison situation, I have decided to make an exception.
It has been a much needed breath of fresh air to deal with Belvoir Skipton, who achieve excellence in service by 'doing', rather than pompous big noting marketing and poor incompetent service delivery. As I said; a comparison...
Many thanks to Daniel and the team. To Charli and Hayley for their warm and kindness whilst maintaining all professional standards, and to Christian and Kevin for same. Thank-you Kevin for your patience in advising on a technical issue, that made no sense to me, and resolving it promptly!
A pleasure to be in North Yorkshire, where the air is much purer......

GoogleHaving had an awful experience renting in London previously, my partner and I felt very nervous coming to Belvoir to search for rental houses...
These guys have showed us how easy and straightforward renting can be, and I cannot recommend them enough. They were extremely helpful and responsive throughout, and even got the keys to us half an hour past closing time as we were stuck in traffic. They made the usual stresses of moving very very minimal, and I would like to thank Charli, Hayley, and Daniel for everything they did for us.
Edit: one thing I forgot to mention is we have obviously just moved in during a pandemic! This didn't seem to affect our experience at all, it was brilliant!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleCharli and Christian were SO helpful and accommodating. I needed to move within days for a new job and they sorted everything and even transferred over bills - literally couldn’t ask for more. As a first time renter they were incredibly helpful, and always a phone call away. I couldn’t recommend enough they are SO nice. I told them what I wanted and they were honest about what I would and wouldn’t like, I actually signed a contract without viewing the property from their expert opinions. 10/10PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleWe have just had very good service from Belvoir . A long term tenant left recently and Belvoir have been really helpful in arranging Contractors and advertising for and gaining a new tenant.
Daniel was very helpful with the overview of rental demand and trends. The maintenance team arranged Contractors for a refurbishment in very good time, especially as we were in the second lockdown. The Inventory was the best I have ever had from an Agent, with very clear description and loads of images.
On the day the new Tenancy started I received the emailed rental statement for the first month. Very efficient.
Belvoir also dealt with meter readings, energy suppliers and Council tax. This was great and not something that I remember previous agents doing for us!
All in all a top service.PositiveProfessionalism
