Report
The agents at Haslams have been amazing, particularly Bayleigh Reid. Throughout our letting process, she was extremely reliable, kind and helpful, offering exceptional service in helping my partner and I get our first flat. We are very grateful to her and Laura (who showed us the property) as they made our experience with Haslams great.

I have been letting my property with Haslams for 5 years. Never had a single issue and every person I have dealt with is professional, knowledgeable and very helpful. Michele has been very efficient and helpful, thank you. Would happily recommend Haslams.

I've been a tenant with Haslams for the past year, and the service provided has been exceptional! Lucky to be with Haslams when I move to my new flat soon- special mention to Bayleigh Reid for all the support throughout the process. Highly recommended

Report
I was a tenant at one of the flats managed by Haslams for the past two and half years, and I have mostly great experience dealing with them. Naturally, during Covid the response times for problem resolution has increased, but this is mostly due to the fact that engineers aren't as readily available. My manager, Sharon, was really kind, prompt, hard-working and went above and beyond to help us, for example liaising with the building heating management to bring our costs down. So I would therefore recommend them, but at the same time advise them to try to resolve the long lead times for any non-urgent problem resolution.
