Testimonials - GSL Homestyle Properties

“We just completed the sale of our flat with GSL, it was their 1st but we would have never known!

A friendly yet professional service, nothing was too much trouble. Excellent commutation and always a prompt response to any issues that may have been raised. GSL go the extra mile and I would highly recommend.

Well done ladies and many thanks”

TC Hedge End

“We just wanted to give you our sincere thanks, for finding us such a great lodger again. We realise this isn’t luck – it’s down to your skill and professional approach. Alison is the absolute ideal match for us, and is such a nice straightforward person too. You have exceeded all expectations yet again! Please feel free to quote this feedback from us!

“Having approached GSL as a recommendation, I hoped for an agent who would manage my property efficiently, find a suitable tenant expediently, and with the minimum of fuss yet with professional attention to detail.

GSL delivered on all fronts! In less than a week of handing them the keys and on the first viewing, the perfect tenants were found.

Nothing was too much trouble, all current legislation met, and the whole process was extraordinarily straight forward. I really cannot praise them enough, and would recommend them without hesitation to any landlord searching for a supremely reliable managing agent.”

Mary, Bishops Waltham

This one is from a landlord whose property had one viewing shortly after it was listed, which resulted in the tenant saying ‘yes’ and moving in a week later:

“Hi Karen,
Wow!
That’s SERIOUSLY impressive….well done to you and the team!

“Thanks again – you make the whole thing so painless, Julie”

“I have worked with a number of rental agents over the years, none have reached the high standards of GSL Homestyle. As a landlord it is important to have a positive, honest and productive relationship with your agent, I certainly have that with both Julie and Karen. They are knowledgeable and efficient in their dealings with both myself and my tenants, they can think outside the box when required and can be flexible when the need arises. I trust their advice, appreciate their help and value their common sense, for me they are my only port of call when I need to deal with any aspects of tenancy. In these hard times for landlords I think they offer real value for money and the highest quality of service, I can without reservation recommend them both to any landlord or tenant.

“ I just wanted to note how delighted I’ve been with every aspect of your service.

Being a newcomer to letting since retiring early last Christmas, I wanted to invest some of my assets into a good quality property to secure a fair, and healthy rental return.

I also wanted to have it fully managed by a company which I could trust, and who I felt were both professional, as well as offering a personal service.

You came highly recommended to me by a very good local estate agent whom I know. I can only say that I’ve found my dealings with you both to be most convivial. You initially visited the property whilst the purchase was progressing, and again once all the refurbishment was completed.

You quickly marketed it, with a great deal of content and detail. On only the first viewing you immediately found a very suitable and pleasant young couple to be my first tenants, at the price we’d discussed, and who have recently moved in.

With the first month’s rent now in the bank, I can only hope that this is the beginning of a long and successful arrangement between us, and with happy tenants over the coming years.

Thank you again, and I’d be very happy to recommend your company to anyone seeking to let or rent.

“If you’re looking for a completely honest, capable, fair, caring, hands-on and 100% professional letting agent, to rent your property or to find a property to rent, GSL Homestyle tick every box and more. They are a rare find, as you will feel completely safe in Julie & Karen’s phenomenally capable hands.

I found GSL after spotting their properties to rent in Rightmove adverts. I am a landlord so have had mixed experiences with a number of letting agents. This was different as we wanted a lodger for a room in our own home. I bombarded Julie with every question imaginable, and she answered them all with a calm confidence, and provided masses of sound advice, which I soon learned came from the years of experience Julie and Karen have behind them.

No surprise then that they kept all the stress of finding a lodger away from us, and their care in sifting through applicants quickly secured a beautifully suited tenant for us. GSL sorted out all the referencing, paperwork and inventory. All we had to do was get the keys cut.

We were so impressed with GSL that we are engaging them to manage our let too. If we ever decide to let the whole house, they are the only letting agent we would use. We just wish their area covered Aldershot/Woking where our 2 let properties are, as we haven’t found an agent there who is anywhere near their league!”

“ With some considerable experience with other letting-agents, it was refreshing to firstly meet – and then work with – the team at GSL. Their approach could not be more different: Clear and honest communication, with pragmatic advice and options presented too. They now manage several of our properties very efficiently and in the unlikely event there are any issues, we can always get hold of them. If you are looking for a local based agency who live by traditional customer service values, then we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend GSL.”

“ GSL stands out from the rest and that’s down to you! You’re such a lovely lady and I can see you really do have your client’s interests at heart – there should be more businesses like GSL!!”

“ We have worked with Get Set Let Property Management for approximately 4 months now and to date have been very impressed with the service they have provided. Their approach is extremely professional, courteous, open and honest not only to us as their client but also to my tenants. They have provided a good quality and timely service and communication skills are second to none, always keeping me informed: whether good, bad or even no news. I have complete confidence in the work they do for me and would have no hesitation at all in recommending them to others.”

“ Hi Karen,
Many thanks for dealing with this so quickly, what can I say, this is exceptional service of the highest order.
Kindest regards”
N, Romsey

“ One has to say that during the whole time, you and your agency did everything possible in the best interest of the landlords and us, as tenants.”
LS, Rownhams

“ I let a property on behalf of a relative who is in care and unfortunately the property is quite a distance away.

I’m not sure how I would have managed without the help of Karen and Julie. They are incredibly efficient and offer a friendly and efficient service. All of their correspondence, including where necessary comprehensive files of photographs, has been through email which I have found a quick and easy way to manage things. Even on the odd occasion where minor work has needed to be carried out they have dealt with it from start to finish and kept me informed.”
AE, Cleveland

“ Thank you for all your hard work and advice too. It has been a real pleasure working with you both. All the best with your business and hope to catch up with you at a networking event or perhaps we will work together again.”
YK, Southampton

“ Have a lovely holiday and thank you so much for all the great work you do for us. It means a lot.”
M & T, Sweden

“ As a busy private landlord I find it really useful to call on the pay-as-you-go services of GSL when I need some extra help. As experienced professionals their knowledge of all aspects of lettings is second to none and they really go that extra mile to give all the support needed. It’s also really reassuring to know that I can count on all the documentation being thorough and complete. I’ve used them for tenant finding, tenancy agreements, and inventories and I can thoroughly recommend their service.”
RD, Southampton

“ Thank you both for doing such a great job.”
NN, Romsey

“ As a first time buy-to-let landlord I was looking to work with a managing agent who would be honest with me and help me to understand everything I needed to know to achieve success with this venture. I definitely found that with GSL. Julie and Karen supported and advised me through the whole process from preparing the property to rent, project managing with me the refurbishment process, advising on types of insurance etc and producing a very comprehensive inventory and introduction pack for the tenant. I now feel that I understand a lot more about being a landlord but at the same time am confident that I have GSL to support and advise me as necessary throughout the tenancy. Many thanks Julie and Karen, it has been good working with you and I am looking forward to continuing our working relationship.”
DH Southsea

“ Can I also take this opportunity to thank you again for all your help and guidance with the letting and especially for the robust and professional line you took initially. This enabled us to get the commencing rental from our tenants at the top of your expected range and to hopefully give a good platform for the future!”
NN

“ We need you !
Many thanks for all of your excellent help in the past”

“ Hi Julie – Fencing looks great, good job thanks a lot.”
TM

“ GSL have been a dream to work with. Clear communications and prompt responses to the inevitable issues that arise in older properties made the job run smoothly. As an intermediary between us, the contractors, and the landlord GSL passed on information in full and were happy to approach the landlord with our suggestions. We were well informed about other trades and visitors to the house, which is a refreshing change! We will happily work with GSL in the future and really appreciate the friendly yet professional manner in which they have worked with us.”

“ Julie Lowe was involved in the marketing of two of our properties to let and we found her professional in her dealings with ourselves as landlords and prospective tenants. she has a wide knowledge of the business and we have no hesitation to recommend her as an asset to any one or business connected with property”

“ As first time landlords we were clueless to the whole procedure. We needn’t have worried as the fantastic team at GSL guided us through the whole way in such a professional yet friendly and caring manner, helping to find us the perfect tenants. We enjoyed our association with you and would definitely recommend to others.”
A. Harris, Chandlers Ford

Many thanks to you all for all your guidance & fab service, we would strongly recommend your team in fact I already have!”
Thanks again Chrissie & Barry

“ I have a three bedroom property that I rent out and have used agents in the past and then because I was so fed up with them I tried going it alone and had a bit of a nightmare.

“ I found this company through a friend. They have been a breath of fresh air. They are so good at keeping you informed without badgering you and any time I have needed to contact them they have been quick to respond and never leave me hanging. I have also saved a great deal of money using their pay as you go options. I rarely bother writing reviews but these guys really deserve high praise. I can’t recommend them enough.”
