GoogleDuring the period BE managed my property Jennifer Owen was appointed to correct numerous service failures and errors made by staff. I spent hours in email communications with Jenny as
Burchell Edwards failed to provide a professional fully managed service.
Eventually I made a 'Formal Complaint' and making it clear I was no longer in need of such incompetence, lack of integrity and unprofessional service being involved in my property.
Thereafter I received an email from Connells customer services coordinater
Manpreet Panaser who made an incorrect assumption of my gratitude towards Jennifer Owen continual assistance.
Again confirmation that their staff do not read and or understand written information
I complained 'again' of further incompetence.
The issue was passed to assistant manager customer service centre Joanne Wong who suffers the same inability to assimilate written facts.
Both a disgrace.
• Contract and Communication Failures
• Inability to read / understand their own filed information and failiure to act with due diligence - making costly mistakes
• Operational Incompetence due to Incompetent staff and mismanagement
• Poor Communication
• Poor customer support
• A list of apologies for all their mistakes, failings and the continual waste of my time
• Inconsistent or misleading communication
• Service failures
•. Failed to uphold their contract section 12
Burchell Edwards is not reliably trustworthy for property letting,

GoogleWe were looking for a rental in Solihull on a tight timeline and honestly expected it to be stressful. Olivia made it the complete opposite. She was responsive, proactive, and genuinely went above and beyond to get everything sorted. The whole process from viewing to key collection was smooth and straightforward. Chloe was great to deal with too. If you're looking to rent in the area, you're in good hands with this branch.

GoogleAfter failing to sell the house for a year with another reputable agent, I was convinced to bring on Burchell Edwards as an additional agent. Within 6 months I received an acceptable offer and the post sales service was second to none.
Reason I am giving Burchell Edwards 5 star is all down to finer detail. The quality of prospective buyers was high, you could tell they do their due dilligence and ensure no time wasters are booked to view. They also ensure they receive quality feedback.
Ryan is an exceptional estate agent. After signing with the very helpful and courteous Daniel, we were handed over to Ryan who is brilliant with prospective buyers and really talks up the property and area. He also ensures you get the maximum offer and does not push youto accept the first offer that comes in. He is a great asset to Burchell Edwards and is someone you can trust.
Finally Jayne who was our post sales case handler who was all over both parties' solicitors and ensured completion as soon as possible.
I wish we brought on Burchell Edwards from the beginning! It would have saved me a lot of time and stress!

One of the worst estate management company i have come across . The manager and one mr Mamood were disgusting and very wicked human being. The Took my £2000.00 from my account without seeing the property .
They kept my money from 24 October 2024 to March 2025. My bank and my friends intervened in to the matter before my money was return to me . They manager and senior managers do not care and are not bothered.

Can't recommend Bridgefords as a future buyer. Staff are lovely, honestly, but the whole process of buying a flat as a first time buyer has been horrendous. Party due to the in House conveyancing team they Bridgefords reccomended. I've lost my dream flat after 10 months because of Bridgefords and their inability to reccomend a competent solicitor. Hopefully you have better luck. Personally I would avoid.

TrustpilotBrand New Listing on a New-built House
Excellent communication throughout, clear, responsive, and very approachable. The team kept me well informed, including regular updates for tenants.
What really stood out was their professionalism and proactive approach. Any issues with the brand‑new house were escalated to the developer under the warranty without me even having to ask, which gave me real peace of mind.
Special thanks to Sophie for efficiently organising the white goods, and Helen for proactively raising and managing warranty matters. A genuinely positive and supportive experience.
The reason I gave 4 stars is that it has only just started, we will see once all is up and running, and tenancies are completed.

GoogleAs much as I would love to give the Shirley branch 5 stars, unfortunately I can only give it 2.
I do, however, give 5 massive stars to Sam, who organised our viewing. He is a real asset to this branch. I won't go into all the details, but he never gave up on me and was always helpful throughout the process. Thank you, Sam!
The rest of the experience was just awful.
The lady from the Shirley branch somehow got lost in the retail park behind the property and never arrived for our viewing. Fortunately, Pauline, the owner, saw us standing outside in the pouring rain. She kindly came over, asked if we wanted to go inside, and showed us around the flat.
After the viewing, we agreed with Pauline that we would buy the flat.
The paperwork was also a nightmare. Everything took far too long, and the waiting times were frustrating.
I also wasn't impressed with the "welcome box."
Sadly, apart from Sam's excellent service, the overall experience with the Shirley branch was very disappointing.

GoogleI had an excellent experience with Gagandeep throughout the entire letting process. From the first enquiry to moving in, he was professional, friendly, and always available to answer my questions. He made everything straightforward and stress-free, kept me updated at every stage, and ensured all the paperwork was completed efficiently.
What stood out most was his honesty, responsiveness, and willingness to go the extra mile to help. It’s rare to find a letting agent who genuinely cares about providing great customer service.

TrustpilotFraud risk
Refused to return deposit after tenancy ended, eventually complying four months later after we enacted formal action. Ignored all our calls and emails, and during the little communication I could get with them I was treated with more rudeness and dishonesty than I have ever experienced. In particular Deposits Manager Paddy and Leanne consistently treated us with the utmost contempt. Probably some sort of illegal operations behind the scenes. Avoid!

I recently moved into Brigford property and I can't express how grateful I am for the fantastic support from Lucy and Murray. From the moment I began the application process, they were incredibly helpful and attentive to my needs. Lucy guided me through all the paperwork with clarity and patience, ensuring I understood everything. On move-in day, Murray went above and beyond to assist me, he helped with any questions I had and made sure everything was in order. To top it all off, I received a delightful box of chocolates as a sweet welcome gift, which added such a nice touch! Their friendly demeanor and professionalism truly made my transition seamless. I highly recommend Brigford to anyone looking for a welcoming place home.

GoogleWhen we decided to explore putting our house on the market a few months back, we engaged several estate agents including Burchell Edwards to come and appraise our property. From the get go it was obvious that Burchell Edwards were far superior to the other agents in respect to professionalism, research and pricing.
We decided to put our house on the market about 2 weeks ago and engaged Burchell Edwards as our agent. They continued to impress us with their knowledge and guidance and we had around 10 bookings in the first week and a half and I am pleased to say that we were offered the full asking price for our property from a cash buyer with now downward chain. We couldn't have asked for a better service and we were not expecting to sell the house within two weeks!
A huge thank you to Louise, Ryan and the team at Burchell Edwards.

GoogleFrom start to finish I couldn’t have been happier. Shout to Eugene Doyle! He came round and instantly put my mind at ease. I was selling my late mother’s property so it was still all over the place. Eugene talked me through every step that would be happening. Was respectful and down to earth the whole time.
So much so I recommended him to others and I would personally only deal with Eugene in the future if I got a choice.

GoogleRyan at this branch was a fantastic support to us, kept us informed all through the process and organised the viewings for our house sale so we could be out, which suited us best. There does seem to be an issue with voicemail messages not always being picked up on the odd occasion when no-one was available to take our calls so I think this does need addressing, but otherwise we found them to be very helpful and professional and would recommend. They sold our house for us at a reasonable price which is what we wanted!

GoogleOur experience with Burchell Edwards during the sale of our home was extremely disappointing. I wish I could give zero stars but unfortunately there is no such option.
Initially, they seemed promising, but it quickly became apparent that their service was lacking. They rarely answer phone calls, and when they do, the staff often admit they are new and unsure how to assist. Attempts to speak with senior team members were futile; they were never available and never returned calls, emails, or voicemails.
Moreover, they are not cheap either; our seller paid much less to another agent who were just brilliant. When we tried to chase them for updates, we were told not to chase and that they would respond when they had time, which never happened.
There was no follow-up on the sale, and we had to chase all parties involved ourselves. The only call we received from Burchell Edwards was on completion day, after everything was sorted by us.
In summary, do not use Burchell Edwards if you are serious in selling your property and unless you want the additional stress of managing everything yourself. Their service was not worth the hassle and added unnecessary frustration to an already stressful process.
