Only as good as the people at BJB
Having dealt with Butters John Bee for many years while renting out my property, I have discovered that it very much depends on the person in the Property Management Team who is dealing with your request or issue as to how good they actually are.I have had a couple of really good people in the Property Management Team who keep you up to date with regular emails, replying to emails and calls, but I have had some really poor people dealing with my account on occasions. This can be really frustrating when trying to get a straight answer and when they are dealing with large sums of your money for work that needs to take place on the property, unfortunately in the past this has resulted in work not being carried out that had been paid for and me being non the wiser for over 6 months, resulting in very unhappy tenants and further unnecessary expense on actually trying to put the issues right.I have to say that my most recent issue was dealt with swiftly by Carol Yearsley and I was kept up to date with progress and the completion of the work, which was a refreshing change.

Honestly having to deal with Butters…
Honestly having to deal with Butters John Bee (Alsager) has been an eye opening experience of ineptitude!Let me list all the problems so far-Initially misleading us as to the demand for properties in this area.Failure to contact us within the initial 14 day cooling off period at all.Marketing the property without us signing off on the advert as discussed.Marketing the property at the wrong price and description. (we have proof).Trying to arrange viewings before any of the above issues wererectified.(again told there were people queuing to view)Failure to arrange an ECP before marketing the property as discussed and then removing the property because of this and blaming us.Recommending 'Move With Us' as a conveyancing company which purposely misquote and hide their fees in the small print The above company were rude, arrogant and incompetent. And it was left to me to cancel their services although initiated via BJB.Excuse after excuse as to why we experienced all the above but at no point did anyone think to follow up with a phone call.Failure to reply to my email wishing to discuss the above issues.Having been informed of people queuing to view, we have had 2 viewings in as many weeks.Being told the first offer we get on the property is going to be thebest and we should accept.Arrangement now cancelled!

The team are amazing
The team are amazing, they have excellent communication skills and always come back with the information that I required for my property. I liaised with Gurdia and Nicola for several weeks and at no point did they make me feel that I was taking up their time or when I asked a silly question they always gave me sufficient information. I felt very relaxed in dealing with them. They arranged to appointments to suit my busy working schedule, Nicola even went out of her way and contacted me during the weekends to prioritise appointments. Thank you very much to you all.

Butters John Bee, Crewe Branch
Would highly recommend Butters John Bee. I live in London and they sold my late father’s house in Crewe. They really went over and above to help me as I did not live locally. They were friendly and efficient and really appreciated their support at this difficult time.
Good morning Marie,I am really please to read that you were happy with our levels of service and that we were of support to you .Kind regardsFran WheatcroftBRANCH MANAGER

I’ve heard that Butters John Bee have taken advantage of a charity for people suffering from domestic abuse. They have stolen money that was intended to provide support for women, men and families who are greatly in need. I will certainly never be using their services.
Dear Alicia, Thank you for your feedback, which we believe to be in response to a recent social media post. For clarity, we would like to highlight that this is connected to the letting of a commercial retail premises, rather than a domestic dwelling; our Newcastle under Lyme branch are in no way connected to this transaction. We regret that the tenant doesn’t feel the property is fit for purpose. We are working with the tenant and the landlord to come to a solution but as the contract is signed the decision rests with the landlord. Unfortunately, due to Government imposed restrictions, we were unable to offer an in-person viewing and sent the tenant a short video of the property which was recorded prior to lockdown. The tenant ultimately made the decision to sign the lease, having had the time and opportunity to have this reviewed, and paid the rent for the first year in its entirety in advance; this was not a requisite of the letting but rather a decision made by the tenant. It's an unfortunate situation and we’ll continue to work with both sides in an attempt to come to a satisfactory outcome.bjb Commercial team.
