Rented out a digsuting flat, refused to repair latently discovered issues including a completely broken bed frame and soiled mattresses they flipped over. I never moved in and they still tried their scummy hardest to keep my deposit even after I returned the keys immediately. They also lied to TDS in order to get more off me to pay for the faults that already existed. And failed. 😂 They illegally amended the check in report that was completely incorrect and only issued repairs once legal action was taken by myself. They work with broke landlords and have very inexperienced, slimy and obnoxious staff. Steer clear. The furniture pictured is allegedly new and unused and the tenant is liable to pay for if they wish to replace 🤢

Acted as an agent for me for a rental property for nearly 15 years and can not fault them. They have always found excellent tenants and been very helpful supporting tenants and communicating with me as the landlord. Would highly recommend.

I had an excellent experience dealing with Sean and the team throughout the entire tenancy process. From the very first viewing to signing the agreement, everything was handled with impressive efficiency, clarity, and genuine professionalism. The viewing itself was well organised, informative, and conducted with great courtesy, which immediately gave me confidence in the process. Communication throughout was always prompt, transparent, and helpful, and what is usually a stressful process felt smooth and reassuring from start to finish. Sean was responsive, professional, and highly organised at every step. It is rare to come across this level of service, and I truly appreciate the support provided. Highly recommended.

I have been a tenant with Places Birmingham for three years, and their service has consistently been professional and top-teir. It’s clear they value their tenants and run a smooth, reliable operation. They are excellent, and I highly recommend them. Special thanks to Jasmin, Fern, Petra, Charlotte, Chloe, Sean, Kifung, and the entire team for their fantastic support!

My partner and I have been renting through Places Birmingham and we’ve had a very positive experience throughout. The communication has been outstanding especially from Jasmine and Charlotte. The team is always quick to respond to queries and keep us informed every step of the way. What really stands out is how promptly they handle maintenance issues. Whenever I’ve reported a repair, they’ve dealt with it efficiently and professionally. The entire team has been friendly and polite, but I’d like to give a special thank you to Fern who has been incredibly welcoming, helpful and gone above and beyond to assist us when we first moved into this property. I would highly recommend this estate agents to anyone looking for a rental property!
