AVOID! Absolutely disgraceful service and communication from Bev and her team in Alfreton. Firstly they shared my contact details with the exB, something they were told specifically not to do, due to ongoing and persistent abuse. Then they did it again! I informed them prior to signing any contact I would need to advertise with multiple agents - the contract was a 20 week sole agent, which I didn't spot, along with all sorts of financial clauses. There was a delay in listing my property, with no communication. The listing contained multiple errors, which were not corrected for weeks, until the listing was shared on social media and I highlighted the errors again. The professional photos were taken by the office sales person. I created more interest myself and through social media friends than DP did. When we eventually had a viewer, the Estate Agent arrived very late, when the viewer was leaving. The Estate Agent didn't inform me she arrived late until days, nearly a week later falsely claiming floods had caused her delay, and that she had rang the viewer to let them know, which they informed my neighbour they were annoyed she didn't turn up. When I queried the activity the estate agent claimed to be undertaking, there was no responses, yet demanded immediate replies to other emails to myself. The agent dropped my listing after I asked them to explain damaged caused to my house after the viewing. Totally unprofessional. Definitely would not recommend or use again

As firsttime buyers, we were so impressed with Amy at Derbyshire Properties. Although she was acting the sellers, she went above and beyond to support us throughout the process. Her enthusiasm, professionalism, and friendly approach made a huge difference. Amy kept us fully in the loop at every... Read Full Review

Stay well clear!!! Awful company and tie you into a never-ending contract - £360 should you take your house off the market even after the 20 weeks. They even tried to add someone who didn't come to view our house. There are far better estate agents out there. I would not be touching ... Read Full Review

I can only speak from my experience & of the agents I've dealt with, the Alfreton branch are head & shoulders above the competition. Excellent communication, when they said they would do something, they did. Thank... Read Full Review

The worst agency my husband and I ever dealt with!!! The staff has no manners, the houses you rent are always dirty, have faulty things which you are told to pay yourself to fix and they will reimburse (that never happens), and they take ages to resolve any issues. Is almost like they do not take... Read Full Review

Avoid renting through this company. Throughout my tenancy issues with property were not sorted and we're never followed up on. If you enjoy being treated like a child and not a professional person, and enjoy being patronised, then this is the company to go for. I would never use... Read Full Review

I am currently in a tenancy agreement with Derbyshire Properties, and I have to say I am absolutely appalled. I have been living in the current property for over a year now, there are many issues. The kitchen is unsanitary, kitchen doors falling off, grouting around tiles almost none existent, ... Read Full Review
For me to approve they would have to be more in contact with there tenants and landlords once an issue has arisen, and keep everyone informed. They should become more aware of landlord and tenants rights, they should make sure their tenancy agreements do not have contradictory information, which is ultimately misleading and possibly invalidating agreements. They should also get expert opinions about structural faults, not sending out one of their employees that has less of a clue than myself. They should make landlords have inspections by the environmental health office before renting out the properties. Last but not least they should have manners!

The people that worked at this agent bullied us on a near daily basis during the sale of our property. We was recieving threat after threat from them. They also have it written into their contract that they are able to charge you regardless of whether the sale goes through or not. If your buyer... Read Full Review
