We rented via Shipways for over 2 years and found them to be a good, fair agent. Any problems with the house were always dealt quickly and professionally.

Sarah Danks in the Shirley office was really nice and always assisted us where ever required.

The lettings department is operating unethically and unprofessionally. They conceal the truth, fabricate circumstances and raise false hopes. Time wasters. They lie to both the landlord and the prospective tenants. No one answers the phone (that's for the sales and the lettings departments). I spoke ...

The fees are about average - but to be honest if its based on communication then they seriously should look at reducing them!

Comment on agent fees
I believe the fees are within the 'normal' range for the type of properties I rent through Shipways, by comparison with other Letting companies - although I haven't made a comparison of fees during the last 12 months.
