Reliable and professional lettings team

I've had a fantastic experience with Miles & Barr lettings and wouldn't hesitate to recommend them. The service has been professional, responsive, and stress-free from start to finish. A special mention goes to Gracie, who manages my property superbly. She is proactive, efficient, and always quick to respond, giving me complete confidence that everything is being looked after properly. I'd also like to thank Jessye, who consistently does an excellent job finding high-quality tenants. Her communication is excellent, and she works hard to ensure the right tenants are matched to the property, making the letting process smooth and straightforward. Together, Gracie and Jessye. make a great team Highly recommended!

Jade Eccott has been a very impressive and essential part of getting this deal across the line for us . Her persistence and patience really has been vital in helping keep this deal together. Her experience of monitoring and chasing up multiple property sales gave us the confidence to trust her advice and although it’s taken longer than we wanted a sale has now been exchanged . Jade more than made up for the branch negotiators Ethan Simpson’s poor advice which could have cost us £1000s in his incorrect so called market experience . Thank you Jade the stars are for you .

Outstanding Service from Start to Finish

We have been absolutely thrilled with the service provided by Miles & Barr. Everyone we have spoken to has been friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful throughout the entire process.

The level of service has exceeded that of other estate agents in the area, and we’ve had experience with several Canterbury-based agents in recent years. From start to finish, the communication and support have been excellent.

Two people who particularly stood out were Luke Payne and Rebecca Gravener. They guided us through the sale with professionalism, kept us informed every step of the way, and were always approachable and willing to help. Their dedication and hard work ultimately got the job done, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they did.

We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Miles & Barr to anyone looking to buy or sell a property.

Exceptional service

Having been a client of Miles & Barr for a number of years now, we have always experienced exceptional service, particularly from the Regional Team Manager (Michelle Purse) at Miles and Barr, Ramsgate, who is very diligent in ensuring that our properties are managed to a high standard and are compliant with all legislation.

Brilliant Communication

Louise Dayley was exceptionally helpful and easy to reach for reassurance and information regarding sale of property to Tenants. I would go so far as to say She held the whole process together

I’m giving the company 3 stars Diane 100.

I’m giving the company, Miles and Barr, only 3 stars because to be honest they are hopeless. I’ve had so many problems with them due to the lack of last minute information and requests that at one point I was seriously considering taking my business to another company.
Having said that there is one person who is outstanding.
Diane !!
She is an absolute credit to the company. Always extremely pleasant, helpful in every way, answers any questions I may have, always emails or calls me back when asked, and sorts out any issues I may have. If it were possible I would give Diane 100 stars. In my opinion she should be running the company and the company would be a lot better off if she were.

MY EXPERIENCE OF WORKING WITH PROPERTY MANAGER MICHELLE PURSE

MY EXPERIENCE OF WORKING WITH PROPERTY MANAGER MICHELLE PURSE.

In October 2022 I bought a house in Ramsgate which was converted into three flats, all of which are tenanted.
I was aware that Miles & Barr were the Letting Agents so was introduced to Michelle. From the first meeting I liked and trusted her.
Following on I made the rather foolish decision to tackle the innumerable problems which came with the property myself, employing roofers, scaffolders, builders, gas engineers, plumbers, decorators which was a costly mistake on my part.
Some of the tenants can be quite demanding and having arranged for a plumber to fix an issue, resulting in a much worse problem, I decided I needed to leave it to the professionals, which is what Michelle is.
Since then Michelle has resolved a vast number of problems, from external works, new flooring, replacement bathrooms, and many smaller remedial works.
She informs me in advance of compliance requirements, then arranges for one of her stable of contractors to simply go to the house and deal with such things as EICR’s Gas inspections, faulty locks etc.
When I submit my End of Year Tax, she sends me a break down of rental income and expenses to forward to my accountant.
All these responsibilities she removes from my shoulders, especially now RRA has been introduced, with good humour, unfailing reliability, and expertise.
I can honestly say that without her assistance, I would probably have decided to leave the PRS and sell up.
She really is a lovely woman, knowledgeable, helpful, funny, so I am extremely grateful to have won the lottery when it comes to my Property Manager Michelle.

I've had an excellent experience with Miles & Barr, especially Jadie Hards. She has been incredibly friendly, professional and supportive throughout the whole process. Jadie kept me informed every step of the way, answered all my questions promptly and made what could have been a very stressful time much easier.
Her communication has been outstanding, and nothing has ever seemed too much trouble. I truly appreciate all the help and support she has given me while preparing for my move. She is a real credit to Miles & Barr.
I would highly recommend Miles & Barr, and especially Jadie Hards, to anyone looking for a professional, reliable and caring letting agent. Thank you so much for everything.
