I would like to thank Liz Thompson for the way in which she has dealt with the letting of my property. Initially, there were some problems with some small repairs needed on my property which did not get dealt with despite many requests.At this point Liz took over the dealings with my property and everything was cleared up and completed effectively and efficiently under Liz's superb organisational skills. Not only did she ensure that my tenants were happy with everything but, she also made sure I was too!!Thanks Liz, you are a star.

We have always been kept in the loop with absolutely everything and making it a super easy & quick process from viewing the property to making an offer and that being accepted!

After being messed about by DBRoberts…

After being messed about by DBRoberts who made me wait a week to go and view the property and then cancelled my viewing as I was in my way to the property.I went to Butters John Bee who were so helpful and friendly. I spoke to Hayley who got me a viewing the next day. In the space of a week and a half i’d Viewed it, fell in love and was moved in. As this is the first time moving out they couldn’t have been more helpful, Sean dealt with all the checks and the back and forth phone calls and he explained everything to me step by step and encouraged me to call if I had any questions. Both Hayley and Sean were amazing and I’m so glad I went with Butters John Bee. Thank you guys, would 100% recommend using them over anyone!

After searching and trying with so many houses, we finally got the help we needed from Kyle Mellor, Kyle was great with us through the entire process and went above and beyond to help us secure a new house for relocation, if you want great service and a friendly agent, I highly recommend reaching out to Kyle.

Lauren has been helpful though the buying process. She has updated me with email and provided relevant details of the process, docs required and contact details of who I needed to liaise with if she could not assist. She was extremely pleasant and has even offered to assist me further if I can't get through to Lynne.

We had an impressive experience dealing with BJB.

We had a wonderful experience dealing with all the staff at Butters John Bee Winsford. From the moment we contacted the above to market our house we had amazing service. Everyone was professional and so proactive. Special mention goes to Lauren, it was such a pleasure to deal with her, a true professional and extremely knowledgeable Also Leyla and Theresa were very efficient and kept us updated at every stage with feedback. Amit was also a pleasure to deal with.We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend BJB Winsford to anyone selling or buying a property in this area.Rinaldo and Trish Marcella

Absolutely first class from start to…

Absolutely first class from start to finish. Lee Dono was so professional and sympathetic, offering advice which led us to achieve more than we expected with the sale price. Not only that, he listened to our needs, circumstances and expectations before committing himself to a figure. His choice of wording in the publicity was also instrumental in the outcome. The terms and conditions and fees were made clear, as was the need for and EPC. We left the meeting on Wednesday, full of confidence, the property was sold stc the following Tuesday. Solicitors are now in contact with each other and the whole process could not have been more simple or straightforward. Probably impossible to better any aspect of the service offered. My thanks to Lee and the team at the Potteries HQ. David Wynne

Hi, I have been having a few issues with a tenant as people do from time to time. BJB have been helping to resolve this and Dominika has gone way above and beyond explaining the procedure step by step. We are almost there but even if we do not get the last bit of money it will not be from lack of effort from Dominika. BJB and Spicerheart should be proud to have members of staff that are so polite and helpful. I do not normally leave reviews but this is one occasion which is an exception.

Olivia has been helping us let out our property. Starting from the initial valuation she has been incredibly helpful and the communication is great. She's definitely a credit to the butters john bee team!

5 star service from BJB

After meetings several local estate agents we found that Steve from BJB stood out to be the most professional amongst the competition due to his adept understanding and appreciation of our home. His photography was beautifully creative and captured the character of our property. Throughout the whole procedure Steve and his team have kept us up-to-date and chased where necessary beyond our expectations. We would highly recommend Butters John Bee to future purchasers and sellers. Thank you Steve and your team for your outstanding efforts.

Beyond excellent

A work colleague recommended Butters John Bee to me having been impressed with the service received from the Winsford office. As a result, I contacted them with a view to transferring the management of my rental property. I have to say that the service provided by Rebekka Gill to date has been beyond excellent. She has handled the whole process with minimal input from me and I feel that my property will be managed with care and professionalism. Thanks Rebekka!

3 stars - OK experience

Given 3 stars as this is rated "average". The experience with the Crewe office was OK, to be clear this is NOT a bad review at all. Whilst Emma and Steve were friendly, this was my first moving experience into my own rented property and just wasn't sure what to expect. They use a portal to pop stuff into like proof of ID etc, this had a timer to complete things, which I did but then the portal would run out of time which caused me to panic, and wa reset (and then again ran out of time) a total of three times - apparently this just happens. If thats the case maybe it is time to think about removing the timer as it just made me think maybe something was amiss. My personal experience with Emma Sandland had been good. I had to chase a few things, like the inventory as this wasn't sent. I think it was a bit of bad timing too, as Emma was on leave but I wasn't aware so when I had questions I was just asked to wait for answers until she returned. Due to the quick turnaround of rented property I was just pleased that my personal deadline meant I wasn't in too much of a rush to get stuff sorted but I was still eager to get everything signed off, I imagine this could have led to frustrations had my circumstances been slightly different. After the move I had a few queries which I had emailed to Emma, a day later I received a call from the maintenance team to say that my query had been passed on to them. Now awaiting answers so unsure how long this stuff takes. All in all, an OK experience.

Was looking to rent in the Wolverhampton area and accidentally stumbled upon one of butters john bee's properties. I spoke to Elisha on the phone about it, and she's agreed to show be the property on the same they, as I'd come up from London to view a few properties with other estate agents. She's was really nice and assist us throughout the process. Everything was done electronically, which meant I didn't have to come back until we came to pick up the keys, which was time and money saving.

Rental Property

I am in the process of renting a property through Butters John Bee and will be finalising tomorrow. Hayley at the Stafford branch has been assisting me with the process. From the start I had been trying to work to a very short deadline. Thanks to Hayley, I was able to meet my deadline. I am always pleased to deal with a company who can provide a professional service, give me regular updates and promptly return my calls. Thank you.

Ask for Michael Ferris!

I’m not usually one to leave reviews, but after quite an arduous and frustrating few months dealing with various letting agencies and estate agents and frankly losing the will to live, I simply have to put it to the World-Wide domain that Michael Ferris has been a God send! All communication to me has been prompt, informative and rid of all jargon, and he has listened to my needs and not try to push his own agenda or make me feel silly. He has also been extremely friendly and down-to-earth, and just generally easy to deal with without ever making me like a nuisance - like I have been made to feel elsewhere. BJB this man is an absolute asset to your company - I have already recommended to friends and family and will continue to do so! Thank you so much Michael - it really has actually been a pleasure!

Awful company. Overpaid my last months rent in my property. Alerted them straight away and was told they would look out for it and send it back as soon as it came in at the end of the day. 5 days later still wasn't back so I chased again. The woman on the phone says they actually didn't have my bank details and to email them. The email address she provided didn't even work! It is now 20 days since and I have chased multiple times only to be told it will be sent and accounts have been told the urgency, still everyday it is missed from their payroll. I just want my money back now! It would appear they like to withhold people's money from them. It is very worrying that an accounts department struggle to make even a bacs payment! Certainly not equipped to deal with large fees and houses in my opinion so would run for the hills if anyone was thinking of going with them! I feel for Claire who has kept chasing for me and getting nowhere, as she is the only one in the company who has bothered to even get back to me or chase. They have left me at the point now where I am assuming they are refusing to send me my money and will now have to take further action to retrieve it. Complaint will also be made to the ombudsman.

I honestly cannot recommend Jenna enough, from day one she was so friendly knowledgeable and approachable and I felt at ease throughout the process, I feel she really went above and beyond to help me not only with the Move into my new rented accommodation but also some help and advice on matters that she didn’t have to and I am so grateful for that, I would happily return if needed in the future, thank you so much Jenna!

Keep up the excellent work...... BJB TELFORD

I would like to thank Beverley and Sophie and all their co workers for our best experience with an agent from start to finish.BJB TelfordThe valuation was the best of 3 that we arranged... not in monetary terms as they were all close..but in her professionalism and the confidence she inspired in us. The photos & brochure excellent.We are downsizing, always difficult, but we were steered with supported viewings and good advice, & always a smile..A bereavement caused us to take the property off sale & after the notice period received private interest.We accepted the offer, then let Bev know, to ensure the buyer had not been introduced.The team look forward to assisting us with a future purchase, and we have every confidence in them...

I wanted to take this opportunity to write how professional and responsive Amy from BJB Hanley has been. She has been extremely helpful guiding me through various properties and her knowledge and insight has been invaluable. I would highly recommend Amy from the Hanley office. She is excellent and both extremely professional and courteous. She spends a considerable amount of time helping potential purchasers finding poperties which are suitable ane neet their needs.

Amazing service, Thankyou.

Recently rented a property through Butters John Bee from the Stafford Branch. Me and my partner just happened to pop in and speak to Jason and Hayley who instantly made us both feel very comfortable, we were both offered a drink before sitting down and talking about what we were looking for. Jason quickly found a property, that had JUST come back on the ladder. We arranged a viewing there and then with Hayley and by 3pm the property was taken off the market and it was to be our new home.Hayley was amazing with both of us, she knew exactly what she needed to, helped us with everything and was very thorough. The whole service with Butters John Bee has been fantastic throughout our little journey and we cant thank you all enough. If you want to be treated fairly, with dignity and if you want the whole process of finding a property to be enjoyable and easy flowing, then Butters John Bee is the agent for you. Thanks guys.

Terrible in every way

If it were possible to rate this company lower than one star, I absolutely would. The level of service I received was extremely disappointing. The manager made a number of bold promises about what their business would achieve for me, yet none of these claims materialised. Communicating with them is incredibly frustrating, you’re routed through what appears to be a call centre that has no knowledge of your situation and no interest in connecting you with the local branch.

Excellent customer service

I have been a landlord for the past 4 years with Butters, my most recent experience has been by far the best I have received. The service has always been satisfactory however Lydia Monk has set new standards with the excellent customer service she provided when re letting my property. She was in continual contact and nothing was too much trouble for her even during Usually this terrible pandemic. Lydia is a great ambassador for the company.
