Great agency, friendly and approachable staff where nothing is too much trouble. Competitive rates, happy to put my property in their hands.

My girlfriend and I entered a tenancy in through Kim at Westbeach. She was amazing at first, did everything she could to help. As soon as we had moved in, that's where the help & support stopped. Literally everything was breaking in the flat, whilst we were left to wait and sort it out ourselves. The Bedroom window collapsed and almost fell out of its frame and stayed broken for the ENTIRE PERIOD in which we were there, the fridge was broken so we had to bring in a second one, the shower was broken, we had problems with hot water and central heating, the oven was broken, it was just a pure mess

Very positive experience with Kim. She helped us find a short term let just before the first lockdown. It proved to be in the perfect location, 5 minutes from seafront and close to our daughter's flat. It was so good we stayed for 11 out of the following 13 months and checked out last weekend. Flat was brilliant for our needs. Kim's calm and helpful advice backed up by solid admin provided by Charli was great. We will definitely visit West Beach Properties again if the need arises.

Kim from West Beach Properties, was a pleasure to work with to rent out an apartment for me in Hove. Her communication was exceptional in that she would get back to my messages on the same day.
Kim is approachable, honest, patient, calm and generally a nice person. I will definitely be using West Beach Properties again in the near future.

From the moment we first spoke to Kim at Westbeach, she was more helpful than anyone else we'd spoken to. We had a very particular brief and she was confident she could work with it... and she did, finding a great property on the terms we required. Throughout the let she was supportive and helpful. At the end of the letting period she went out of her way again to help us with something rather complicated.
Kim doesn't just go the extra mile, you can tell she's a kind and generous person. We immediately trusted her and, it turns out, with good reason. So we can't recommend Kim and Westbeach
