Ken was an absolute lifesaver in our property search! He found us the perfect place in just two weeks, which was incredible given the urgency we had. What really stood out was his dedication—he even took the time to show us the property multiple times, including after working hours, just to make sure we were completely comfortable with our decision. On top of that, he handled all the documentation smoothly, making the entire process stress-free for us.

Having not been in the rental market for many years I found it to be a challenging place. Dealing with many agents was often unpleasant, customer service was non existent, they wanted lots of very personal information just to view a property. I was getting very frustrated when I made an enquiry to Derbyproperty4u. Ken immediately came back to me, his way of doing things was night and day compared to other agents. He was friendly, extremely helpful, knowledgeable and gave fantastic service. He quickly arranged a viewing, showed us round and explained everything. He then kept us up to date through every step. The whole process was so quick and easy with Ken and I would recommend him to anyone looking to rent a property. I cannot praise this business highly enough, many agents out there could learn a lot from Ken and his business.... Read more

Myself and 5 others spent our second and third years at uni in a lovely house on Ashbourne road. The house it’s self was lovely and Ken was very responsive and happy to help. During our time here there were some issues that we had with the landlord turning up without 24 hours notice and we were told that 24 hours notice was only needed for our rooms and not for the communal areas, which I believe should not be the case. We also had some issues with the regularity of the gardener and the cleaners, at the beginning of our tenancy the cleaner and gardener came regularly, during covid this became less frequent which is understandable, however, after returning to ‘normal’ the frequency of the gardener and cleaner did not return to usual. Towards the end of our tenancy we were extremely disappointed to find out that the landlord was claiming that we had broken tiles in the bathrooms and was trying to deduct costs to repair this damage from our deposits, however the cracks in these tiles were there before we moved in and there is photo evidence of this. After discussing this with Ken the charges were dropped but they still insisted that we had caused damage to the property (please if you are moving into a property take pictures of EVERYTHING). This is not a review to bash this company as the house is very lovely and Ken and the landlord were quick to sort out any issues we had during our time here, there were just a few things that we were slightly disappointed with....

Great experience with Derby Property 4U. Rent for almost 2 years at DE22. Ken was always very responsive and straightforward with us.
We started the tenancy agreement in the middle of the pandemic, so viewings were done via Video call and all paperwork over the internet.
During the tenancy, a few minor issues happened with the property but where solved in hours or maximum a couple of days.
I completely recommend Derby Property 4U.... Read more

Perfect for students
I will recommend Derbyproperty4u to any student, whether you are just looking to move into a property solo or with friends. I was looking for an affordable room in Derby, that was shared just by students to make acquaintances and friends, especially after lockdown.
Kenneth Sherlock(Agent) was very competent and every question I had before moving in, he was able to explain. I have been in different properties and rooms and the communication with the landlord was always difficult. However, when I moved in, if there was any problem with the property or personal, the response was very quick and helpful from Kenneth Sherlock and the issue was fixed as soon as. You get informed of any changes that are to be made on the house, so thatyou don't get surprises.
The house was exactly as the pictures, there is no deceit. The state is properly kept and every once in a while there were inspections to check if any work had to be done. Honestly, I am very happy that I found my room here for my second year of University. Finding a room or sharing a property is always hectic and especially as a student you don't want to be in a position were you are stressed thinking about moving and the issue that can arise during your rental.
Definitely recommending any student to search for a property with Derbyproperty4u.... Read more

Ken has always been a very responsive courteous and kind landlord. I’ve rented 2 separate properties from him both student and private. I would give a 5 stars based on him alone but the student property I’m currently residing has a few issues that could really do with resolution before I could grant the full 5 (Kitchen needs a bit of work doing and the room needs re flooring and work doing to the walls)
But based on Ken he is pleasant.. warm.. contactable and always always listen to reason. I would happily rent a new property from him.... Read more
