I felt well informed by the staff at Jan Fosters. I liked the text messages to remind me of viewings with the names of our visitors. The staff helped to reassure me when we got close to our selling date and I began to feel a little stressed. I would recommend them to friends.

These people do not do their jobs. My tenancy agreement had the wrong length of tenancy and the wrong landlord details. I was then told it was still legally binding. Absolute joke. Management is nonexistent and at a premium. Don't expect manner or a helpful ...
