Report
They have some friendly good staff but generally when you make a complaint it doesn't get followed through. Instruction from the estate agents to their contractors doesn't get properly relayed which results in multiple visits and wasting tenants time. I ended up replacing and repairing items myself in the end. Not the best estate agents but not the worst.

As a landlord with 4 properties I've dealt with plenty of people in 'the business'; thank goodness for Sky Blue Homes. I can't see myself using anyone else now, they are so helpful, efficient and prepared to go the extra mile for their clients. I recommend them to anyone and everyone and am proud to do so. Give them a try, you won't regret it.

I rented from this agency for my 2nd and 3rd year at uni. I was quite nervous about not living in student accommodation but I couldnt fault the experience. Really helpful staff and would recommend them for student properties.

They have successfully stolen 410 from me by claiming I had not paid rent that I had paid. Even though I went through the My Deposit scheme and proved I had paid for the periods they claimed were missing, I did not provide bank statements for the entire 4.5 year tenancy, and so it was 'unproven'. It's a devastating amount to lose. Also, at the start of the pandemic, I was behind in rent by one month and they threatened me with eviction, even though eviction is not legal in this circumstance, there was a pandemic, and they did not have the support of the landlord. I honestly don't know how these
