Becky and the team were very helpful with our moving process and managed to fit the move in date to our schedule. All immediate issues with the property were dealt with quickly and allowed for a comfortable move in process. I would highly recommend this company for all those looking to rent in the area.

Excellent experience with John German Estate Agents, from my initial enquiry right through until completion. Estate agents usually get a bad name but this team were great. Debbie was very responsive and kept everyone informed along the way - Thank you!

I have been using John German for 3 years and am delighted with the service I have received. Staff in the Burton office have been brilliant in managing issues for me, keeping me informed and going ‘above and beyond’ at times. Lisa Schuck in accounts has been excellent in looking after all things financial for me, providing advice and ultimately peace of mind. I would totally recommend them! Great team!

Outstanding service. I have used many estate agents in different parts of the country over the years and John German is definitely the best I have encountered. Emily and her colleagues gave excellent support and advice throughout the selling process which continued through to completion. Highly recommended.

Lisa and the John German team have been, and continue to be, diligent professionals in the service of full property rental management. The responsive nature of their business means that as a property owner, I’m never in doubt that the tenants are never left unmanaged or assisted. I would highly recommend Lisa as your account administrator too, her thoroughness and understanding of your rental property portfolio compliments the resources John German has to create a highly satisfactory full-service property manager.
