My partner and I had been looking for a long time for the right property around Coulsdon and Purley. Jake, a Sales Negotiator, was fantastic! He took the time listening to what we were looking for, which gave us confidence in viewing properties he thought met our needs before they came to market. He was professional at all times. Would highly recommend!!PositiveQuality, Professionalism

Frinton on sea branch

Frinton on sea branch, Jodie went above and beyond the call of duty to ensure that this House sale went ahead. With problem after problem mounting against the sale she was the glue that held the whole deal together. I'll be eternally grateful to her. What an asset to your company. A+ Mr T Drake

Sly, money grabbers

My experience was a short one with Barstow (Sutton branch) when I simply asked to view a property. Confirmed I have my own AIP and without asking she goes on to try and sell me their services. I didn't agree to any financial consultation but they set one up anyway. I said I didn't need it and wasn't able to view the property without one. The fact they don't even ask and just set it up is so sly. Wouldn't recommend for anyone let alone a first time buyer.

Bairstow Eves Bow-

Karl was our estate agent and I can't explain how helpful and great he was. He stuck with us to find the right property, even though this took a while and eventually helped us find out dream first little flat together (my partner and I) which we have now very happily been in for nearly a year.

If I could leave zero I would

If I could leave zero I would! We recently moved into a rental properrenting threw these cowboys! We've had nothing but problems, first no gas safety checks were conducted, major leak happened from bathroom to the kitchen leaving us with no power, could we get hold of anyone? No! We are left with major damage to our belongings and currently looking for somewhere else to move to! I also feel fro the landlord are they aware that this property is managed by such con artists!

Refreshing and brilliant to deal with , Thomas Wright in the Purley branch has been a pleasure to speak to and always ready to help. He couldn't have been more accomodating , I work in estate agency myself and I haven't come across many people as helpful as Tom . Keep up the good work mate, would highly recommend your services to anyone looking the rent on the area.

Contract Should Be Illegal

I could write an essay on how bad this company is. Essentially once you sign the contract, you have 14 days under law to cancel, but after that period you have to give them their money. They were badgering me to get my flat on sale for a holiday period, and then they missed the holiday period with their sales event to get it online. Said it would have taken x3 weeks to take the photos and get it online. So I said give me back the keys, as I want to do some extra bits (new hob, lights, breakfast bar). Then I went to purple Bricks who had it online in 2 days, and told Bairstow Eves "I don't care if I have to pay you, I want nothing more to do with you". And complained. So their internal complaints service decided that it was my fault it wasn't online in time because I was holding it up by doing extra work. Even though I had the emails proving the opposite. So then I went to the Ombudsman just to waste more time, and asked them a simple question "When does the contract end?" To which they replied "We can't tell you because we're not legally trained". Then they sent me the code of conduct that the Ombudsman writes which is the legal framework that estate agents write their contracts against. And Bairstow Eves sent an illegible page in response, and said if I signed it I should understand it. So if they (all parties) can't answer a simple question like that, how are members of the public meant to have a full understanding of it? Especially when it mentions duration of the contract is in section 3 (of the estate agent's contract) - then you look for it and it goes: section 1,2,4,5,6,7,8.The bottom line is - they get your signature, and then they can go golfing or whatever else they get up to, and they're legally entitled under British law to their money once you sell with another agent, or find a buyer.* And everything else that's meant to represent consumer rights is a farce. *In terms of finding the buyer: they say they've always got people on the books even before it goes online. That even when another agent finds a buyer, it was them. That they might have told a spouse or sibling who informed your buyer. That if you find a buyer yourself and don't use another agent for two years, there's no way of proving it was you that found them, but the marketing period is indefinite. Even if the contract states the marketing period is for 5 months or so, it will still state it's indefinite at the same time, and they state that from the moment you've signed they've already got interested parties. Etc, etc.

Bairstow eves lettings Romford

Bairstow eves lettings Romford - never do any business with them. They have been charging huge fees from landlords and never return call or email. We have also complained to Customer care team 4 weeks back and there has been no progress in our complaint. The have charged us for annual renewal fee that was not included in the contract and inspite of multiple calls and emails we havent been refunded (all proof emailed to the team multiple times). None of the staff members are professional and inspite of multiple emails and calls we get informed that their manager will call us and they dont know anything about the matter.

After our first meeting with Luke we knew he was going to sell our house for us. He did just that and more, his enthusiasm getting quality houser buyers through our door was outstanding. He has kept us informed of what's happening every step of the way. We are very pleased we decided to sell our property with Bairstow Eves Purley.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

It was a lovely experience to use Bairstow Eves' services for a rental. The way the whole thing was handled was incredibly professional. Jamal Aslam in particular was encouraging, professional, and readily available to address any queries or concerns during the entire process. I would advise nearby renters to use this branch.

I have recently rented a property with the help of Bairstow Eves and would recommend to anyone wishing to rent a new home. The team is professional and willing to help with any issue. Ignas Pilybas and Julie Goddard have been working hard to make the process simple and easy for me, always there to help me with any query I had. Great team and great customer service.

Bairstow eves Bow branch etc

Bairstow eves Bow branch etc. Called me back but because I was unable to secure the rented property within 6 days Failed to email me the property information that I requested. Failed to reply to my Whatsapp messages for a whole 4 days and have refused to explain why the property /properties is still advertised on EVERY search engine. Failed to explain why its being let at a different price and have blocked me from whatsapp. Just had an incoming call but they hung up before I could even pick up the phone that is sitting right next to me. Absolutely disgusting behaviour from Alan Harvey at Bairstow eves. Zero customer service skills

I found Bairstow Eves incredibly professional but also very approachable. They answered all our questions and advised our family without putting pressure on to take that advice. They advertised the property we were selling online and in the shop. The service was fast and efficient without feeling rushed. I would recommend this estate agents to family and friends.

The agents are nice

The agents are nice, but unfortunately they are capable of lowering the property's price. Despite assurances that the price is final, you shouldn't trust them. I do not recommend.
