The problem is that I was waiting for early release agreement and contacted with the agency as we spoke, then Landlord agreed on that, I messaged you that you can progress my application then somebody from you agency said that let had been agreed not informing me straight away. Not fair behave from you. YOU DID NOT LET ME KNOW THAT YOU HAD TAKEN DEPOSIT FROM ANOTHER APPLICANT UNITL I GAVE A CALL NEXT DAY THAT MY LANDLORD AGREED ON EARLY RELEASE, VERY PROFESSIONAL.
We have used Chris at Belvoir for 10 years to manage our rental property. Unfortunately the quality of the service has deteriorated significantly with multiple occasions of having to repeatedly call and email over many weeks to get a reply. Alicia and other staff who have worked there have all been as helpful as they can. Unfortunately Chris seems to restrict how much they can do, is very poor at communicating and keeping the customer in the loop and when he finally replies many weeks later, he gives the usual excuse that he’s been very busy and apologises yet again. The whole service and experience over the last few years has extremely disappointing and incredibly stressful when we having been paying for their service for 10 years now. Even now as we are trying to move to a different management agent, we are still waiting for a reply to our calls and emails after 2 weeks. I wouldn’t recommend Chris’s management service to anyone. I have given too many opportunities due our loyalty for such a long service and hoping it would improve. Even an official complaint didn’t make any difference. Please think carefully about using Chris if you are a landlord.
Extremely difficult to deal with.
We rented a house through these agencies for about 4 years. When the boiler broke down, once in winter and again in summer, we had to wait almost two weeks for repairs. The boss, Chris, is very unpleasant and even chauvinistic towards women, and not only towards women. Only the ladies who work there are nice and helpful. Unfortunately, the agency also behaved badly when we moved out. The house looked better after 4 years than when we moved in. We repainted the entire house and cleaned the carpets with a special vacuum cleaner. We really put a lot of work and effort into moving out. However, the agency came up with ridiculous explanations and charged us exorbitant prices for replacing the filter in the hood, prints on the carpet from the furniture even though in fact the carpet should have been replaced by the owner a long time ago, and many other nonsense. As a result, we did not get the bond back, which was about £600. I do not recommend this agency mainly because of the boss who was impossible to even talk to because, as he claimed, he had no time for me even though I and my family had been a client for many years. Overall, it's a big shame and the agency is considered one of the best on the market... I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND!!!NegativeProfessionalism, Value
Upon the initial onboarding process they was very prompt and efficient. After paying a considerable outlay and a higher than average management fee I thought this would be reflected in the service. After a series of issues and ongoing costs once I employed the services of my own trades people became disinterested and less responsive. Chris is a rude man whose attitude towards his customers is terrible the girls have a kind and helpful nature. I have since parted company with Belvoir's services due to the above and three weeks on I am still waiting for the keys to my property and evidence of the house inspection documents as agreed. I would be thankful if someone could attend to the above as it didn't take me three weeks to pay your fees and I would expect the same courtesy in return.
Chris Duffy the office manager is disgusting in the way he talks to people and refused to deal with an emergency where the property wasn't secure. This is the 3rd time Chris has been rude and unprofessional on the phone. The ladies in the office are very helpful and make this business.NegativeProfessionalism
Having to leave 1 star as I cannot leave anything lower! Absolutely terrible management when complained about a tenant - the tenant is causing criminal damage and Belvoir couldn't care less!
