Our experience dealing with Oliver couldn't have been better. His approachable demeanour meant that we felt comfortable in our new home from day one and confident that if any issues did arise he would be more than happy to help. The property was great, so there wasn't many times we needed to get in touch, but when we did he dealt with each request quickly and effectively. When looking at new properties we met a fair few different agents and the interaction rarely compared. I would definitely use Spark and Sons again based upon this past year and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others.

I've been a landlord for several years, 10 of which with Spark and Sons. I don't quite understand the opinion of those commenting, however I suppose everyone has their own experience.

As a landlord with several properties I strongly recommend you avoid this agency. Inadequate background checks on tenants, rented our property to a cannabis gang, didn’t tell us and then re-let without a tenancy agreement in place. Property trashed, monies not passed across, arrogant ... Read Full Review

The worst agency in Brighton and I rented as a student for 4 years. Chloe and Adam are liars and thieves. Quick at getting your money just to get you into a busted flat.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
