0 Consideration For Tenants

We viewed a property to let back in September and moved in shortly after, we were promised that a couple of the issues around the property would be resolved by the time we got the keys. On the day of moving in, the damp in the living room had not been resolved instead a piece of MDF had been glued to the wall to cover it up and none of the other issues were resolved as well as new issues including a hole in the bathroom ceiling, holes in the upstairs doors and paint all over the carpets. 5 months on and we still haven’t had any of the issues resolved despite countless attempts to reach out the BJB I have been ignored and my calls go unanswered. I have had a hole in my roof and windows that don’t shut all through winter when it has dropped as low as -9 outside we have had that chill flowing through our house but the staff at BJB do not care and do not want to help. I was pressured on my move in day to leave a positive review and I regret leaving it to this day. Despicable treatment of tenants, how can you leave another person in a property that is damp, full of holes and has windows that don’t shut ?

My experience with butters John bee has been amazing! Marcin dealt with myself he was the most helpful kind and down to earth person from start to finish! I couldn’t have asked for a better negotiator he is amazing. I really appreciate the service I received from Marcin, nothing was to much and he communicated to high standards with myself any questions i had wasn’t to much for Marcin, everything was dealt with to perfection. I would highly recommend butters John bee and Marcin to anyone,

Fantastic Customer Service

I rang this morning with an initial enquiry and spoke to Jenna Stelfox; I must say that after months of contacting letting agencies; I have a decent understanding of the customer service they offer over the phone which is poor at best. However, Jenna not only delivered the bad news I was expecting (owner will not allow pets) In a positive way but also went the extra mile for me; treating me a valued customer, irrelevant to the fact the property I enquired about was not the one for me. She offered me empathy and had a clear understanding of our difficulties in finding the rite property. She went on to give fantastic advise and explained what she would do for me in this property hunt. I have come away from the call feeling she has set a precedent that other company's should look to follow. I look forward to see if she can find us the rite property. Thanks again Jenna.

We have had an amazing estate agent. Jacob has helped us with any queries as much as he can and provided an excellent and professional service. *EDITED!* When renewing our 3rd year at our property we ran in to an issue with renewing our tenancy agreement and Chloe Gretton ensured that ot was swiftly dealt with. Thank-you!

My family is relocating during the pandemic and I can't stress enough how difficult it is. I am so grateful to the Butters John Bee's team, specially Lucy Strassmann who helped me find the perfect home for my family in this difficult period.Moving homes is hard enough and with all the restrictions felt like I wasn't going to find the right place. Lucy was so helpful and patient with all the questions and the process was quick and simple. Thank you again for helping us find our new home.

Good lad.

Young lad called Fin showed us around a house on Saturday. Very polite nice guy who has followed up with us and given us a few more possibilities to stew over after the house we viewed wasn't quite right for us.

BJB have been excellent at managing my property

BJB have been excellent at managing my properties during this crazy Covid time. Carol Yearsley in particular has gone above and beyond in dealing with the management of properties where tenants have been furloughed or have lost work and have been unable to pay their rents on time. Carol has liaised with myself and the tenants to find a way through and it has been such a great help to both the tenants and myself to have her to sort it!Thanks Carol!

Rental staff in local NuL office

I have been dealing with Abi who manages rentals. Being new to this I found Abi, Lydia and team exceptionally helpful, guiding me through all the hurdles to successfully get a tenant in place last October.Now during the Covid 19 pandemic, I worked with Abi to get my house rented. Nothing is ever too much, there when I call and despite limitations she has worked to get my property relet. A huge thanks Abi, BJB has a very dedicated employee

Very poor attitude and service

We moved into a property on the 8th November, reported maintenances issues straight away (windows not closing, faulty shower, door handles faulty). We called Butter John Bee Crewe multiple times to chase this up and was passed onto the property managers each time (Lacy and Ben) both said they would sort this asap every time and call back. Each time we have not had a call back from either them and had to re chase this up. We’ve now lived in this rented property for almost 5 weeks, the windows were only just fixed last week and everything not fixed yet. When speaking to the contractors who came out to fix the windows, they had said they’d only been made aware of the issue a few days prior despite us reporting them weeks before. The service and attitude of property management is not great at all. We are paying for a service each month and we’re not getting it, this is absolute ridiculous and I wouldn’t recommend anyone to go with this estate agents when looking for somewhere to rent.

I put my house on the market 1 week ago with another agent. Since then I have received at least 30 calls from BJB telling me they have customers on their books looking for houses like mine. An absolute scam! I have told them to stop calling but still the calls keep coming!

Massive thanks to Benjamin who has been a massive help with our property. As a new landlord you always want to have someone at the other end of the phone to help and advise you, and make sure you’re not going to end up in trouble. Benjamin has been quick and friendly and explained things in a way that makes it simple to understand and remember. I feel very safe knowing our property is in good hands.
