They like to hold back deposits spitefully

They like to hold back deposits for grass naturally growing weeks after you moved out!
They will nip pick at everything.
If you are disabled and arent able to paint a wall "professionally" they will deduct more money!.
They also dont show evidence what your landlords have said. If you dont have direct communication with your landlord. Don't believe a word they say!
They answer the phone and talk too you like robots with no remorse.

Excellent Property Management

Excellent Property Management!

We have been working with Beth in her role as Property Manager for some time now and I must say she is exemplary in her abilities.

Her communication and reasoning skills are outstanding with her primary focus always being the welfare of her clients and tenants.

She is relentless in ensuring that her contractors work to the highest standards in a timely fashion.

A positive and seamless experience!

My partner and I viewed a property with Ellie on short notice, as we needed a quick turnaround after prior arrangements fell through.
Ellie was absolutely brilliant during the viewing and afterwards. She explained everything in detail and gave us all the information we needed about both the property and the process. She also went out of her way to ensure our referencing was completed as quickly as possible, as we were working within a tight timeframe.
We really appreciated her help and professionalism throughout — we couldn’t recommend her more!

Experience with Jordan 10/10

We had a great experience with Jordan as our estate agent! She has been incredibly helpful, patient, and considerate throughout the entire process. Since we were moving from a different country, everything could have been stressful, but she made it all feel easy and smooth. Thank you, Jordan, for your support and dedication!

Great Services

I have recently moved into my new property with Uni2rent part of John Shepherd and I have to say it was very smooth process for me to get into the new property. My previous tenancy agreement was about to end and I have to move in on the very same day and it was Friday evening, most of the letting agency try to shift the move in to Monday but when I requested Monica Moran she managed to give me the keys the same day I requested and I am very glad she did. I would also like to mention Ellis Boakye here the way he helped me to move in and sort every problem I had was tremendously good. If anyone reading this review I would suggest to book with them and honestly they have great properties.

They respond really fast via email

They respond really fast via email, but it is a little harder to find anyone on the phone. They are quite adaptive to your needs and will find a solution that would make you happy. Havind said that there were some delays and there could be more attention to detail.

John Shepherd - Kelvin Zakeyo Review

Had a really good experience with Kelvin Zakeyo. He was easy to deal with, always quick to reply, and kept things moving without any hassle. He made the whole process way less stressful than I expected.

He was friendly, straightforward, helpful the whole way through. He actually cares about doing a good job and building customer relationships rather than just doing the bare minimum for the job.

Would definitely recommend Kelvin to anyone – really appreciate all the help!
