Report
This is the worst estate agent that I have known. They just benefit the landlord but do nothing for the tenant. They don't have any professional people in the office because they don't deal with complaints straight away. If you give them any issues that you have in the house they take ages to answer your email. I am really disappointed with their service.

They have some friendly good staff but generally when you make a complaint it doesn't get followed through. Instruction from the estate agents to their contractors doesn't get properly relayed which results in multiple visits and wasting tenants time. I ended up replacing and repairing items myself in the end. Not the best estate agents but not the worst.

As a landlord with 4 properties I've dealt with plenty of people in 'the business'; thank goodness for Sky Blue Homes. I can't see myself using anyone else now, they are so helpful, efficient and prepared to go the extra mile for their clients. I recommend them to anyone and everyone and am proud to do so. Give them a try, you won't regret it.

I rented from this agency for my 2nd and 3rd year at uni. I was quite nervous about not living in student accommodation but I couldn't fault the experience. Really helpful staff and would recommend them for student properties.
