John Shepherd - Kelvin Zakeyo Review

Had a really good experience with Kelvin Zakeyo. He was easy to deal with, always quick to reply, and kept things moving without any hassle. He made the whole process way less stressful than I expected.

Above and beyond expectations

Jack has been great throughout the purchasing process. From the initial call, providing us with all of the required information during the viewing, through to the post viewing process - everything has been timely (even providing updates whilst on annual leave!) I would absolutely recommend him and John Shepherd as agents, irrespective of whether you’re a first time buyer or not.

I have been a landlord with John Shepherd for many years and they have always provided a very professional and reliable service. I have just sold the property with them and Carly in the lettings department has been excellent with a number of difficulties we have encountered but she always resolved them in a professional and timely manner. Would definitely recommend and Carly is an excellent agent. Thanks very much for all your helpPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

Great Service-John Shepherd Solihull recommended

Gurdev and Harry provided an efficient, professional and friendly approach throughout the property sale. The sales brochure was excellent, Gurdev quickly recognized the potential the property offered. We were kept well informed throughout It was not the easiest period in which to sell a property but we achieved a sale thanks to the dedication of Gurdev, Harry and the team in Solihull. I have no hesitation in recommending John Shepherd to anyone. Thank you

Don't use this agency

Don't use this agency. They illegally charge referencing fees which are not a permitted charge under the Tenant Fees Act 2019. They also fail to give adequate keys and fobs, and repairs take too long. Highly recommend to stay away from this agency

I don't leave reviews

I don't leave reviews very often but John Shepherd West Bridgford deserve one. I am absolutely disgusted with this unregulated letting market, trying to remove deposit money for 2 small plastic cracks in a fridge freezer and saying they will need to replace both from our deposit money. Furthermore saying they will need to have it re-cleaned despite us paying £180 for two cleaners to spend 3 hours cleaning it professionally. Prior to this when we lived in the flat we had a low water pressure problem which took them over 4 months to fix, they came up with excuse after excuse before finally offering to fix it a few weeks before we moved out (only because we had to get the council involved to sort it). We then moved into another property with them where the oven had not been cleaned (see pictures attached) yet was told it was just cleaning residue. Also the dishwasher that did not work, we were originally told to try to fix it ourselves? Thirdly in our contract it makes reference to a washing machine, yet no washing machine was present and we had to spend hundreds to buy our own. I cannot believe what these agencies try to get away with, I highly doubt they would even replace the fridge and freezer for such a small crack and new tenants who will soon move in, they just want money money money! Disgusting.

Tassi Lettings

Tassi Lettings are now under John Shepherd so just to add to here also:I am a student living in a flat with Tassi Student Lettings currently. It has been beyond hell.When I moved in:- Tabacco scattered across the floor- Bin full of maggots - Dirt on the skirting boards- Mould in the bathroom- Electric parking that did not work- No heating (and it has been 2 months)- No instructions on how to turn the fire alarm off (it was on from 9pm - 10am)- Electricity randomly switching off- Light detached and hanging from the ceiling - Scratched furniture- Broken toilet seat- More I cant even think offYou can not get hold of them at all! If you have an issue you have to ring 100 times to even get through to someone. DO NOT LET FROM THEM! They are useless, absolutely useless. I moved in in August it is now October and problems are still coming up and the old ones are not getting fixed.

Thank you for your feedback and for highlighting Caitlin's excellent support during your move. I'm sorry to hear about the frustrating verification process for your guarantor and the additional ID request after signing the tenancy. We strive for customer-centric service and will review our procedures to ensure a more reliable experience in the future. We appreciate your honesty and hope you'll consider us again for any future needs.

Found the staff to be generally very unhelpful

Found the staff to be generally difficult and unhelpful. I wanted to view a property on Hampton Lane. They said they were told by the seller to 'work backwards' from 5.30pm, and offered me a 4.15 slot. Asked repeatedly for an earlier slot, due to work commitments, but they just said no. On the day, yesterday, it transpired I could not make it for work reasons, despite my efforts to make it. I rang agent today to ask for a viewing. I was told offers had been made and another viewing was 'unlikely.' I would have thought that unless the offers had been accepted and /or property had been sold, there is no reason not to entertain further interest. I would expect a greater level of courtesy from agents, especially when they are dealing with a property value of just under a million pounds! Extremely frustrating and disappointing. I cannot understand this approach to buyers.

Dear Miss Rashid,Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Please note we had a time slot we needed to adhere to. I understand you cancelled the appointment 10 minutes prior to your appointment time however we still have allocated an appointment to you next week if you are still interested or alternatively if you would like to view any other property with John Shepherd, please feel free to contact us. Many thanks,
