Got my review removed on google because i didn't comment anything which is petty as hell ! so i'll be leaving my comment here with all the legit reviews as they seem to fake and remove any none 5 star reviews from their google account!
Leaving a none comment doesnt equal a fake review ( even though my account was anonymous on google doesnt mean its a fake review FYI it was anonymous for reasons i cannot state publicly ) , its weird how im being treated and singled out while literal other reviews have no comments . This further proves to me they are a disguistng company that would only value their customers if you write a 4 or 5 star glowing review. My experience with this company was horrendous , and i continue to experince their horrendous and disguting treatment i will not be using them ever again .
I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY unlesss you want to get treated like utter flith by them!... Read more

I do not consider Stoke property shop as estate agent. I think they are jokers. They simply lack professionalism that is required in managing estate agency. Most of the houses they deal with are very old and in poor condition with full of damp.
I remember the wood flooring was all coming out of place. They sent someone to put black tape all over it in the corridor, instead of repairing. Also, the kitchen tap was leaking, they sent same guy with super glue to fix a broken tap.....Jokers.
During snowing season, we slept in the cold for two days without heating and lighting, and my child was only 3years old at the time, but they did not care. We had to report them to the council, and on the same day they sent someone to resolve the issue.
The worse of all is that after they have given you troubles, at the end of your tenancy, they will team up with the landlord to try and take most of your deposit, if not the whole amount, even if you leave the property in a better condition than before....They are rip off. I can go on and on, but don't have time to write all that these people put me through. I have dealt with many estate agents, Stoke property shop is by far worse. All they want is your money......Beware, please stay away from them, but if you do not take my warning, then I wish you all the best.... Read more

Absolutely disgusting and abhorent behaviour from all members of staff, constantly the threat of extra fees and charges! They treat tenants and students like exploitative bags of money.

SPS, in simple terms treat their landlords with absolute bias an impunity in order to maintain their status quo and cash flow (they claim otherwise). They do a great job of welcoming you with smiley faces and all the usual song and dance in order to get you signed up to a house.
My experience involved calling up dozens of times for someone to repair the showers (which dripped constantly through my year) toilets which were not fixed to the ground only for them to turn up and fail to do so each and every time. This was the same case with a ceiling roof leak above my bed which took weeks to ammend, under the guise of "having to source professionals" of whome left the mess of broken tiles in the back yard, clearly a lie. They even sent someone out to repair a floorboard who took 2 days to do so and ended up putting a hole in the ceiling, im unsure if SPS hire this "repair team" but they are a joke.
I also made a note to myself of the bed in the room I was staying in, was bent out of shape (this is very soon after moving in) and I naively didn't call this up due to the incompetence of the team for any other issue that arose, the bed caused no issues and I assume that this was already noted by the landlord and deemed fit for purpose, upon the end of my tennancy the Stoke Property Shop team saw fit that a fine of £390 for the year was justified, £100 for the bed (which broke due to the fact it was bent prior to me moving in), a general clean price of £100 and cleaning marks off the walls at £30 a go, despite the fact that these marks fell well under wear and tear and thus should be exempt from the charges. Upon my argument that the bed was weakened prior.
Due to a lack of photographic evidence they held strong and their "unbiased" facade fell flat. They had the audacity to tell me the house was renovated when anyone with a modicum of integrity would tell you how barebones the house was, furnished with the finest a charity shop black friday sale can offer. Charging for general wear and tear and now a bed that, if the landlord was honest would confess was already structually compromised.
After posing valid points over an over again the professional and friendly side of the SPS team shined through. They state from the beginning that they act as a middle man for the landlord, when they clearly set up arguments and defences for the landlord that take advantage of naieve students (such as myself at the time). After myself constantly arguing valid cases which went around in circles, they decided to provide me with a "goodwill gesture" and knock £90 off the fine, this was clearly described as a goodwill gesture in order to deny any fault if the matter went further, that same email went on to insult us as tennants stating "we made more of a mess in 5 months than the previous tennants did in 11", reading this (which is a lie anyway) and realising they couldn't even count that late August to NEXT June is more than 5 months I accepted their goodwill gesture and left it as they clearly cant be reasoned with and were simply wasting my time.
Here is the bottom line should you decide to go with stoke property shop:
- They have some dishonest landlords with them, landlords that take deposit money for issues and don't fix them. This was clearly apparent regarding the leak I had, my bent bed, the shower and toilet. This is a fact. If you go to view the houses make sure that you ask the current tennants about the situation.
- Take pictures of EVERYTHING, no matter how small of minute have about 100 - 200 pictures of any crack, scrape mark or dent as you don't know which thing that they will claim on. And report ALL of it over phone and email so there is a record to cover youself, dont feel like your being annoying because if you miss a problem they are liable to pick up on it and charge you.
These guys have a name for themselves around the university area in person that suggests a much lower rating than the handful of reviews on this page.
SPS try and extract deposit money simply to make their client (the landlord) happy.... Read more

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND - This agency does NOT care at all about the student that it provides accommodation to.
TL;DR - You'll have a better experience with a private landlord as they survive and thrive from word-of-mouth and taking care of their students. Stoke Property Shop has no interest in ensuring that your student experience goes smoothly, they are solely focused on claiming every penny possible from their tenants.
Property had many issues, and during the global pandemic, NO CONSIDERATION was given to those who had complications. In-house disputes are "not their responsibility" and students are told that "your student loan is provided to pay for accommodation" (which is NOT true for student studying post graduates as we have a singular loan that covers tuition AND EVERYTHING ELSE.
Need to leave the property to be with your High Risk family? You'll still be paying 100% of the rent, and 100% of bills for resources you will not be using.
Do the best you can to leave the property in a state where no claims need to be done on the deposit? If your housemates create issues past when you leave, that's your problem too - regardless of evidence that you have made that effort.
Using Stoke Property Shop as an agent has negatively impacted my student experience for my masters year, for my undergraduate I went through a private landlord - I would recommend all to do the same.
See image:
Landlord claiming £35 for cleaning from a student that hadn't accessed the property for an entire semester, after still expecting the FULL £1150+ for rent and bills on a property not accessed for that entire semester.
Please note - knowingly did this to a Masters student, whom does not get a separate tuition loan and maintenance loan, meaning this money was taken out of the money required to pay tuition.... Read more

Staffs students beware .Rented with them in second year and was the worst decision i have ever made .The house had damp and when i asked for it to be fixed they said they would send someone but nothing ever happened . The boiler in our house had to be reset every day and despite phone calls and emails they did nothing to fix it . It was like our problems were not of any concern to them . When speaking to them in person or on the phone they just wanted to end the conversation and were damm right rude as being students they assumed they could do as they please and when i got my parents involved they refused to cooperate but instead said they would only talk to me and were rude . Very nice till you sign the contract and the payments come if you miss it by a day you get rude phone calls and emails demanding money but if you want something resolved they take forever .The houses i have see from friends are shocking with mould and some are in clear need of a renovation clearly they care more about money then the quality of the houses they let out to the public and students .I was luck for my final year and found a better house but i wont ever rent from the again and if you want a pleasant time with a nice house and problems fixed they are not the people .Just people out for your money ....

Currently renting a property with these horrible people, we contacted them previously about issues with the property, since I've moved in we have had issues with the boiler, people came to fix it but it was never properly fixed. Coming back after Christmas the boiler wouldn't work at all, so my mother contacted the property shop at 4:30 as I couldn't, they said they would 'book it in' for me but it was freezing outside and inside was just as bad, after ringing back at half 7 to find out what was happening because it was so cold and against the law for them to leave one of their occupied properties without heat, I don't know who it was who spoke to my mother but they were absolutely vile to her, forget good customer service and all that, they were so rude to her and never resolved the issue, I had to get someone else to try to fix it because the house wasn't fit to be living in, with it being like a walk in fridge. I would advise everyone not to even consider renting properties from these bunch of con men because once they get your money, they don't give a toss about you!!
