Archer Bassett take all the worry and stress out of selling or letting a property as I have done both of the above through them now. They are with you every step of the way and fully manage all aspects of letting a property out finding suitable tenants and dealing with everything for what I consider a reasonable fee with no crafty hidden extras.
I know it sounds like an old cliché but the staff really cannot do enough for you even the directors get involved to ensure everything goes really smoothly during the letting process or the sale of a property so I would one hundred percent recommend you trust their skills and expertise and I have not and would not ever use any other sales or letting agent because with Archer Bassett you truly get that personal touch which the others do not give you. Thanks Archer Bassett.

I have worked with Archer Bassett for 25 years, both as a property management company and sales agent, and I can confidently say that they have been nothing short of exceptional in every aspect. From managing my properties with the utmost professionalism to overseeing sales with incredible attention to detail, Archer Bassett has always delivered a level of service that is second to none.
Their team is highly knowledgeable, responsive, and dedicated, handling every challenge and opportunity with expertise and care. They are proactive, transparent, and go above and beyond to ensure that everything runs smoothly and efficiently, whether it’s dealing with tenants or navigating complex sales.
As an experienced portfolio landlord I know what it takes to manage properties well and having used other agents in areas that Archer Bassett don’t cover it made it all the more clear how good they are and that I have used them consistently for so long also demonstrates that.
Over the years, their reliability and consistency have given me complete peace of mind, knowing my properties are in safe hands.
Archer Bassett set a benchmark in the industry and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone seeking a trustworthy, top-quality property management and sales partner.
Of particular note is Simon Jones, Director. Simon is extremely knowledgeable about the industry and importantly the many rules and regulations. Simon has been with Archer Bassett for as long as I’ve known them and has always been available and ready to sort out any issues.

I dealt mainly with Stephanie at Archer Bassett and from the start she was so friendly, personable and I instantly felt at ease with her. She always got back to me if I had any questions with a quick response and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. I would definitely recommend :)

Landlords if you want your properties wrecked by the tenants and the maintenance people they use and also struggle to get any deposits back then these are the ones to use.
My husband and i have had Archer Bassett both Rugby and Coventry Hollyhead road branch let properties out for us for over ten years in Rugby and Coventry. For the first few years they done a good job, but for the last five years they have got worse and worse to the point where we no longer rent any properties out through them, picked the last set of keys up today.
The five or six monthly checks are a waste of time, they only pick up on faults that the landlord needs to address and not how scruffy the place is or how many people are living there when it should only be one or that they have dogs or cats when they should have none, also the checkout they do and charge a silly amount for is a waste of time, they miss loads things that should be picked up on, i have been in after they have done the report and found food waste in cupboards along with maggots, missing blinds, broken sockets etc etc but dont forget you have to pay for this to have any chance of getting any part of a deposit back which we had been told by them is almost impossible to get back because they use a outside depositary who nearly always side with the tenant.
We appreciate that you have do have to accept wear and tear, but if they do the job job they supposed to do on a fully managed let and inspect properly then things could be nipped in the bud.
If you have any problem like an electrical problem or leak they will first get a quote from their maintenance people before doing anything, then get you to pay for it first, this is fine if it is a big job but we have had three properties that have had leaks and two of them have been a one minute job to stop the leak from causing more damage ( turn off the valve) but no, they go away and send in a quote to them that is then sent to you and by the time you have it which could be a coupe of days before you see it which could only be £60, well you can imagine, new floors etc, and they will not accept any fault on there part whatsoever.
We had one house that a tenant had moved out of and had found that much damp, i mean soaking wet walls we had to get a specialist in who told us the main water pipe in the ally way (terraced) must of broke at least a two or three or more years before had caused it, so much for the six month inspections.
I wont go into the attitude you can sometimes get from them because everything remember is your fault.
Its all about getting as much money out of you as possible for the least work.
We are so glad we no longer have to deal with them and would advise anyone thinking of using them not to, you will regret it.

Have had a fantastic experience recently selling a property through Archer Bassett in Coventry. The process was dealt with efficiently and with great sensitivity. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they kept us well updated along the way. Their advice and expertise was invaluable. They helped complete the sale so quickly and gave a very professional service. Would use them again and recommend them to anyone thinking of selling for sure.

Cannot recommend this company. I've been without any running water in my properties for three days now and still no end in sight. No toilet, no washing up, no cleaning facilities, no basic human decency allowed for their tenants - just profit for them. Have been left without any running water for almost a month out of the 9 months I have lived here. Mental.

The Sales team at Archer Bassett have been fantastic from the moment I chose them to sell my house. Their advertising pulled in lots of viewings and they kept me regularly updated and advised me on various offers made by potential buyers through to the ultimate completion on the house! I thoroughly recommend Archer Bassett to anyone wishing to sell their house! Thank you for your time and effort in getting this sale done!

4 SEYMOUR HOUSE,WARWICK ROAD COVENTRY
When we visited the house they told us that it was furnished, surprisingly when we entered to live there were important furniture, the bed and cabinets, dirty and unpainted walls, they gave us a list of defects that at least there were 25- 30N defects at the house, one of the most important all the windows were broken and entered cold, you can imagine the cold we spent during the winter, the answer was that the landlord did not want to fix them, the communication with the agency was always very good , with respect to hot water they were always fast. We had a new house and extended us 2 times an additional month until they entered the next one (they didn't find new tenants either) for a few months they made many visits but nobody hired the floor. Before leaving the house They send you an email saying the conditions with which you have to leave the floor, clean, organized, we insist on doing the checkout with them to confirm that everything was right and D Evolve our integrated deposit, because that did not happen and stole from the deposit the amount they wanted, what a way to steal without seeing your face. My experience is not recommended, they are not professionals and if they can deceive you they will do it, I hope that my Experience serves others, greetings

Everything seems like it's hard work with these guys. When you call to ask things and are instantly made to feel like you are causing them an inconvenience. Didn't send any emails back over after contact even upon chasing them. Instantly put me off and so I have now gone else where. If they treat people enquiring like this I can only imagine how poor the customer service is when signed up with them. I had 3 properties I wanted an agent to let out. Was made to feel like I shouldn't have called at all or bothered them. Definitely would never recommend Archer Basset from the experience I had.

Can’t give less than 1 star, the least professional letting agency. No response for calls and emails, not bothered to give a proper reason why application was not accepted. Have to wait 10 days and make multiple enquiries. Try and stay away if you want to avoid bitter experience

Being a tenant for 2.5 years, just moved out as needed a bigger house, I would recommend Archer Bassett to others as they provide excellent service and professionalism.
They also follow strict covid guidance as only one tenant was allowed for a viewing appointment and only 1 appointment a day, wearing face masks as well. I would highly recommend Archer Bassett.

I recently bought a house through Archer Bassett Lettings & Sales, I can highly recommend their services for buying/selling a property in the Coventry area. Nicola Austin provided an excellent service throughout, she efficiently manages all communications, liaising with both parties promptly and with great attention to detail. I give 5 stars as Nicola is friendly, approachable, professional and very good at what she does, it really makes a difference.

If you are Landlord do not use Archer Basset. Service is really poor. Communication is weak and they will scam you out of money which you haven’t agreed to pay. Please be aware of the Statement with in their contract that reads they can change their contract at any time. If you are considering Archer Basset make sure you check your terms and conditions with a solicitor and note the following wording “we may make any change to the terms” I’m afraid to say this has caught me out. Very dirty business from Archer Bassett.

WARNING landlords - DO NOT USE!!!!! Complete con artists who have created a contract that is so woolly but will have you trapped! They change the fees you have to pay after the contract has been agreed and signed but hold you to ransom if you want to leave them - will charge you 2 months rent plus VAT if you want to leave them!!!
DO NOT USE !!!!! Beware

Would have give 0 stars. Absolutely unprofessional service from these. My girlfriend went to view a property with a guy called Tom Wolski. He told my girlfriend we would have to go through the application process, there was a couple viewing after us. My girlfriend emailed him after the viewing to say we would like to start the application process. Upon his return he emailed back and said that the couple after us had phone up and put a deposit down on the property while he was travelling back and that they would “have to go with them” so it was one rule for us and another for them. Absolute money pinchers. Would not recommend!

0 stars - went to a viewing for a property was advised was all through the application procedure for all applicants, as soon as I got home from the viewing i recieved an email advising the people after my viewing have put down a deposit. Unfair as no application was completely by others but due to them putting a deposit down they secured the property, I was not informed of this else I would of done so. Unfair and unprofessional, time wasters

Do not ever use this estate agent . I rented
My house with them for far too long almost
7 years. During the coronavirus my last foreign tenants decided they did not want to pay me
Any rent! This was in May 2020. Archer Bassett allowed them to completely destroy my house
They painted the bedrooms in bright pink and left mould in the main bedroom . It had cost me thousands for a refurbishment with the painting and the decorating . I have still not got my rent back from last tenants . I phone them everyday but the people who work there are rude unsympathetic and incompetent. They basically confuse the general public with rules and regulations of letting your house.
All they are interested in is making as much money as possible !
The person who owns it is called peter I have spoken to him on the phone once or twice
He is a rude sarcastic individual
People of Coventry just let your property with a different estate agent
These people should not be allowed to exist in business and this is why they give estate agents a bad name

The most worst let in agency. I paid deposit to hold one house and after they check my references and rejected my, hold my money. Before that I asked if I apply and don't give me house can I recuperate my deposit? They said yes. And now send me message because I have low credit score. Y rent house not buy.... This people are rasist and trick people who don't speak English like my. Rubbish agency with rude people.

IF THERE IS ZERO STAR I WILL RATE THEM
They booked me for a view for the property and they told me call as at the day of viewing
I called them and they said It is not exciting anymore.
But I realised the story, the booked many different people and they do the same with everyone I stopped searching for a house because the told at viewing you can reserve the house for £225.
Unprofessional agency . Unfriendly staff.
AVOID THEM PLEASE ????
