Surrey Quays
I came across the Benham & Reeves Estate Agents in Surrey Quays agency through a Rightmove listing for rental properties. I have been dealing with estate agents for the past 20 years and I can safely say that this has been the most professional letting agency I have come across so far (and in London that is not easy to find). I highly recommend it due to interactions in the following areas: Viewing process experience: Anna, the letting agent that showed me the property, was outside the property at the agreed meeting time, was very knowledgeable about the property and what the read more neighbouring area had to offer to someone moving there. Letting agent communications: Whether I dealt with the letting agent directly or other members of the Benham & Reeves team, all were professional and crystal clear in their communications and managed my expectations well in terms of what was required in respect of information and timelines to provide it or expect it. Moving day experience: Prior to moving day, Anna explained clearly what the rules were for movers coming to development to help with the move. This made the move straightforward and the letting agent even assisted on the day when the movers arrived early at the property. Contract drafting and signing experience: Although the contract went through a couple of drafting rounds, this was a very straightforward experience due to clear responses to my queries and clear communication on the amendments required to accommodate the wishes of the landlord. Clarity of fees and payments: From the initial deposit to take the property off the market to the funds required to complete the process, it is was always clear to me both specific payments and the overall total amount required to pay to move into the property. Handling of queries and liaising with landlord on my behalf: In respect of requests to fix minor issues in the property these were handled promptly in the pre-contract period and without a need for reminders.
