We are using Home Sweet Home Letting and their attention to detail is great. Overall, five and a half out of five for service. Perhaps the most useful things are the personal touch and that they seem to take care of everything. Suitable, vetted tenants were found within two weeks.

As a first-time landlord, I was incredibly happy with how thoroughly and quickly HSH dealt with all my queries and got me set up to begin letting. I have no hesitation in recommending them, and indeed, have already done so.

I have had such a positive experience using Home Sweet Home Letting Agency. It is clear to see how much they value their customers, they demonstrate this through creating good rapport with us. They are very attentive and responsive with any queries. I would recommend using this independent letting agency as opposed to other larger ones because Home Sweet Home actually care about the tenants. We've never had any problems with them, they are very professional and reasonable.

We moved our rental property to Home Sweet Home as we wanted a small, personable, company that cared about both tenant and landlord. HSH has delivered. The Agency ensures all parties are treated fairly. This is a friendly firm that communicates clearly and quickly, and rapidly responds to questions and needs. We highly recommend HSH; a wonderful change from the larger corporates.

Happy to say the best letting agency I've dealt with. If for no other reason than the fact that they treat their tenants like human beings - customer service is top notch.
