I dealt with Giovanni when selling my property. He was so polite and professional. He always got back to me and kept me informed of his intentions and plans. I had total faith in his ability to get the job done quickly, efficiently and in my best interests. I would highly recommend him.

Thank you to the City & County Sales team who were brilliant! Nothing was too much trouble from the viewings to problem solving they are all very professional, helpful and caring people. I cant thank Sales Progression Manager Susan Beaney enough for all her hard work, going above and beyond to try and get me moved nothing was too much trouble thank you so much for everything you did to try and resolve the complex problems.
Also Andrew in lettings has been so helpful arranging for me to rent the property short term so that I had a roof over my head. And to Giovanni for his help and advice regarding selling my property after my purchasers pulled out two weeks before the planned move arranged through another Estate Agent had failed. I would have no hesitation in recommending this wonderful team if you are thinking of moving home.

I start marketing my house for sale with city along with 8 other estate agents from Peterborough. Out of those only two estate agent were effective. and out of those two city service were best. Before they advertise this in web they start to bring people next day. They were very effective and will not force you to sell your property for lower value. They will do their best to help you to find buyer and provide excellent service. Other estate agents will lie to you about other agents and force your to sell your property for lower value. I have no hesitation to recommend City &County Peterborough. Well done team!

I am delighted with the service received from Faye Young at City and County to secure a Tenancy Agreement in Kettering, all questions asked were answered in a professional manner. The duration of the process was 2 weeks from application to agreed moving in date for the reason of referencing to be validated etc. I would recommend the service to any prospective applicant looking for a Contract Tenancy Agreement.

My sister and I have just signed a tenancy agreement for a property in Peterborough with Faye Young. She kindly did a video tour for us as we live in Chester and are relocating. She handled everything with us so professionally and in a polite/friendly manner. She's made what we thought was going to be a very stressful transition, a very easy one, she's been incredibly friendly and provided us with all the information we need and answered my probably very basic questions. Can't recommend her and this estate agency enough.

Great service offered from the beginning of property seeing till this long tenancy period of 3 years. Very professional interaction and very responsive and quick in fixing the maintenance problems. Their online portal is one click to report all the issues quickly and effectively. Special thanks to Helen for her great dealing and customer service offered. All the very best "City & County" for your great service and looking forward to connecting with you again in future.

I can only say these are the worst agents out there. NEVER USE THEM I wish I had read this before I used them to sell my house. I was rushed into signing a contract with them after my Dad died as I couldn't cope with being a landlord, they were fully aware. I was told they had 9 viewers lined up and I had to sign to get this moving. This was not true. I was sent a scanned copy of the agreement over, in which was the smallest wording ever seen.
Then I was locked in with them. The worst decision I have ever made. Horrible company, the staff lie, money is all they are interested in and they will do and say anything to get it. Please do not use this company.

23 minutes ago You only had one job. After telling you that I am travelling 2.5hours and checking again with you that the viewing was taking place you call 25 mins before to cancel. You blame it on the vendor not being available. You insist that the vendor would have been informed by a text. You would not take responsibility for this fail and waste of time. So what actually is your job at this stage apart from sticking some photos on the internet and arranging viewings? What contingency plans do you have? How do you think you could improve the process and actively confirm with vendor? Like I said, you only had one job. FAILED.

I wish I'd seen the reviews on here before renting with them : 120 to apply non refundable, steep but ok if it gets me the property I want. Then 60 for some tenancy agreement fee would have been nice to know in advance. Then 30 every 6 months for a 'periodic' fee well at least it's not too bad. Then I moved out 54 checkout fee. Since when Oh and a 170 fee for cleaning, when the house is cleaner than when I moved in and the inventory supports this!
And they tried to charge my another 54 to remove furniture included on the advert! All in all, that's nearly 500 in hidden / dubious fees Speaking to other people who've rented through them, I got off lightly.

Avoid, avoid, avoid. You don't get what you've paid for despite it being in writing and they'll expect you to pay for their mistakes. Almost everyone I've spoken to who's dealt with them has had problems. :

Hidden fees (rent through them and you'll pay and pay and pay), rude staff and poor customer service - they seem very helpful until your locked in. If you rent a flat, it'll be a month's rent and deposit - fine. Then it's a 125 application fee, then a 60 odd tenancy fee, then a 25 admin fee and so on. They'll ignore maintenance requests and you're lucky if you get the features promised (I didn't). Avoid!
