Hi Rob, if you had read my summary, you would see that I was writing on behalf my elderly mother, which is why you will not be able to match my name to a property, Shipways had indeed charged my mother an initial fee of which she was left very disappointed by the service or lack of provided to her, despite your colleagues comment on visiting her that 'we will soon sell your property'. My mother has lost all faith in Shipways Estate Agents and have decided to take her business to one of your com ...

Tiny little expenses pop out here and there and they were never fully explained to me from the start. They don't want to spend money or even ask the landlords to get issues sorted.

Dear Val, I am so sorry to have read your review. We pride ourselves on our high customer service so I am hugely embarrassed about what I have just read out your experience, I only wish you asked to speak to me (the manager) so I could've sorted this for you. Can you please contact me directly to let me know which property you live in as I do not expect you to have to live in a property with mould and I will sort this out for you. I look forward to hearing from you and sorting this out for you. ...

Comment on agent fees
we own another rental property managed by a different letting agency who's costs come in at about the same cost. the difference being that a quarterly inspection takes place with them - compared to that of once a year by shipways - and a lot can happen during such a long period of time! if it was'nt for the fact that robert does such a brilliant job we would be tempted to alter the letting agent.

We have a very stringent customer complaints policy and we wish to confirm we had already sent you our complaints policy prior to your post on this website so please tak ...
