I have been a long term tenant of Lea Ridge Developments for several years and have lived in two of their lovely properties. Throughout both my tenancies I have always dealt with Jean Kelly and found her to be just brilliant! Nothing was a problem for Jean, and any issues were dealt with quickly and painlessly. Always helpful and professional in all areas, and I would have no hesitation in recommending Jean to any prospective tenant. Thanks for everything Jean. X

What can I say about Lea Ridge? Absolutely fantastic, professional and approachable. The cottage I rented was immaculate and anything that needed doing was attended to with upmost urgency. Jean and her team are understanding and a credit to the letting agent industry. I have now purchased a property with my fiancee so no longer require their services but I would have no problems in recommending Lea Ridge to anyone. Thank you Lea Ridge

We highly recommend using Lea Ridge as a letting agent. Their approach is very pro-active finding and qualifying tenants, great communication with both the owner and tenant and they make sure any issues are dealt with quickly. Jean has a reliable team of trades people she can call on to deal with any maintenance issues. You are in safe hands with Lea Ridge!
