Cheffins  Avis 

I have used Cheffins platinum service since 2015 .The staff are committed and professional especially when dealing with tenants and awkward situations that sometimes arise.Payments and accounts reporting are excellent as well as being kept up to date of all the legislation being levied on landlords by the government .

Cheffins lettings team managed my property for eight years until its recent sale. Both lettings and sales team are very helpful, have expert knowledge in their field and demonstrate true professionalism. Debra in the lettings team is brilliant, responds promptly to enquiries and gives excellent advice when needed.

Both Charlotte and Leila in the sales team were incredible. From dealing with potential buyers, booking viewings, negotiating the sale and then chasing everything to point of exchange they were so helpful, friendly, courteous, professional and always so quick to get back to me. My house was on the market for less than two weeks and we exchanged contacts in very good time. This was down to Charlotte and Leila’s hard work and communication with everyone involved.

I would highly recommend Chefins for both property letting and sales, they have been fabulous!!! Thanks to all of you.

Cheffins Haverhill are absolutely first class managing our 2 rental properties.
Laura Yemm is exceptionally professional, efficient, so helpful & looks after us perfectly. A pleasure to deal with .

Cheffins has been mangling my letting properties for many years. I can always rely on them to sort out the regular certificate check for Gas and Electric. The regular property visit reports are detailed and honest. If there is any repair needed Cheffins always inform me first. I know my properties are in good hands. Many thanks to their good management leadership and strong team members.

I had an excellent experience with Cheffins Haverhill throughout the entire process. The team was professional especially Laura, knowledgeable, and always willing to go the extra mile to help. Communication was clear and prompt, and they kept me informed at every stage, making what can often be a stressful process feel straightforward and manageable.
I would highly recommend Cheffins in Haverhill to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent a property. Thank you to the whole team for such a positive experience.

Excellent service from the letting team . Always happy to help out with any queries.
Thank too Laura and Ewan for your patience and understanding.

Knowlege and is very mice to talk to.

David and Rhea made the whole process completely seamless. Genuinely, the sale was the easiest and most efficient part of the whole process. It's really noticeable even that the care taken to get high quality photos sets Cheffins apart from others. Highly recommended and thank you David and Rhea!

Excellent help and advice from Rhia at saffron Walden office.
She kept her cool in what was for us a long and protracted sale process due to issues lower down the chain.
Thanks again Rhia

We complete tomorrow having exchanged last week and all I can say is a big Thank You to Cheffin’s especially Max whose persistence rewarded us with a successful transaction. We were kept informed at all stages of the progress in a friendly and patient manner. We felt Cheffin’s found genuinely interested potential purchasers during the course of our sale. A big thank you also to Ella and Judith who were calming influences in a turbulent sea.

I have been renting with Cheffins for over 10 years and at all times found their knowledge of rental laws to be excellent. Their support in dealing with tenants, both good and bad, has been well advised and rapid. Their knowledge of local professionals to provide all the services needed is very comprehensive and the charges have always been reasonable. I live abroad, so their local knowledge when finding new tenants has been invaluable. Over the years staff have changed At all times there has been excellent continuity of service, with no gaps in the service provided. I strongly recommend this company to anyone considering appointing a letting agent.

I had a lovely experience with Cheffins. I would especially like to mention Angie, who worked incredibly hard for us. She is one of the kindest and most dedicated people I have ever met. She even supported us during weekends, despite it being her time off.

Thank you to the entire Cheffins team for your excellent service.

If I could give zero stars, I would. We enquired about a highly sought-after 5-bedroom letting and were told there was only one specific day available for viewings. We completely rearranged our schedules and drove nearly an hour (a 2-hour round trip) to attend.
Upon arrival, the agent was nowhere to be found. When we called, it turned out the agent had booked us into a completely different 3-bedroom property at a totally different location. Because of their internal administrative blunder, we missed out on the correct property entirely, as it went under offer to people who were actually given the correct address.
When we raised this with the branch manager, Christina, instead of apologizing professionally and offering a solution, she actively tried to shift the blame onto us. She argued that because their automated confirmation email contained the wrong address, it was our job to proofread their agent's data entry before traveling. She then bizarrely claimed that because the property was high demand, it didn’t matter that we were sent to the wrong house because we "might not have got it anyway."
An absolute masterclass in gaslighting and shocking customer service. They refuse to take responsibility for their own staff's human errors. If you are a landlord, be aware that this agency is actively losing you good, proceedable tenants through pure incompetence and then alienating them afterwards. Avoid at all costs.

Cheffins Newmarket (particularly Kristie, Claire, Sophie and Andrew) were excellent in dealing with our recent property sale and purchase. They were friendly, proactive, accessible and effective - everything you want in an estate agent. Thank you!

We rented through Cheffins for two years and had a great experience throughout. Angie German in particular was outstanding, always responsive, genuinely helpful, and incredibly patient. When our move-out got complicated (we relocated internationally and had to coordinate everything remotely), Angie went above and beyond to help us work through the checkout process smoothly. She was proactive, fair, and kept us informed at every stage. The deposit return was handled transparently and resolved quickly. If you're renting in Cambridge, you're in very good hands with Cheffins and especially with Angie.

After a torrid time in the middle of the sale,it was a pleasure to meet max and he came to my house and apologised,and dealt with everything that was outstanding, credit where credits due,and max sorted everything out,as I was totally stressed,and I would definitely use them again as I maybe moving myself.

We were genuinely shocked by the unprofessional behaviour of the Cheffins staff handling a rental property in Cambridge.
Two different employees contacted us regarding the same property. Initially, Lauren Sweeney arranged the viewing by email, but as she was going on holiday, she passed our details to her colleague, Angie German, who was supposed to conduct the viewing.

We were relocating due to my husband’s job and travelled 1.5 hours with our three‑month‑old baby to attend the appointment. We arrived seven-five minutes early. The property door was closed and no one from Cheffins was there. After waiting for ten minutes, we called Angie German to ask where she was. She claimed she had been at the property on time but had left because “we were not there”. This was simply untrue. When we asked why she did not call us before leaving, she replied that she was not obliged to contact us.

The entire conversation was dishonest and dismissive. For us, this was extremely upsetting — travelling such a long distance with a small baby only to be left standing outside with no communication was stressful and deeply disappointing.

This experience showed a complete lack of professionalism, reliability and basic courtesy.

I was kept informed every step of the way, nothing was too much for Cheffins, my. House purchase was made more exciting as they negotiated a lot of furniture and white goods left by the owner making moving in really easy. The keys were ready early,. Thank you Cheffings for all you did.

I have been very impressed with Cheffins Saffron Walden. The whole experience of selling a property is such a stressful experience. My sale falling into that category very much so.
But the staff at cheffins have been nothing but professional & polite throughout the whole experience.
Thank you.

Sophie was amazing throughout the starting process. She replied to emails quickly and helped us feel confident in what we were signing up for as first time private renters. It was a quick process and we were able to find an amazing house that fit our needs. Other organisations aren’t as attentive to what we were asking for, after a long wait of seeing houses that weren’t looked after well and the agents not enthusiastic, cheffins was a breath of fresh air. Clean house, staff are kind and always looking to help even if it isn’t their property to help with. I cannot recommend enough. Thank you
