Could not give zero stars

Could not give zero stars. Trespassed on land and took drone footage over grazing land without permission.
You caused injuries on two horses. Disgraceful behaviour.
Please let me know where I can send the vet bill.
AVOID

UPDATED REVIEW BY MYSELF 30/4/2024 ... Barney estates you seem to have copied and pasted a reply from another bad review of a different review site to this one.

You have not answered my question. To whom do I directly send the vets bill to?

Mrs Ellis,
Our client has been trying to contact you for the last several days without a response.
Can I ask that you urgently contact me at our office to discuss this matter, 0208 432 7330
Regards,
Amiee


Dear Bernie,

Our client has instructed us to sell the land that you currently have a tenancy on. Within the marketing process viewings will take place on the land, this is a normal part of any property sales process.

We are sorry that the viewings are distressing you. We can assure you that viewers are always told to take care on land where animals are grazing and are told to not enter and view from the gateway.

Please report to us any purchasers who have not respected this. We have not heard any complaints from you thus far.

Please call us to discuss further. Perhaps we can organise for our client to discuss the issue with you.

Barney Estates & Auctioneers.

Highly recommend Barney Estates & Auctioneers

We recently purchased a property through an auction with Barney Estates and Auctioneers. Elliot did an amazing job of pulling our deal together and saved the day by identifying gaps in our ROI calculations due to a previous misinterpretation of several costs. This purchase wouldn’t have happened without Elliot as we had pulled out, but we ended up concluding the sale before auction commencement. Would definitely use the service again.

Supporting fraudulent sale

Despite being informed by the legal owners of a property that the land is no longer for sale through that route. Who have requested in writing thar the land be removed from sale. They have continued to advertise, and proceed to auction on the advise of a company who do not own the land.

Patrick was incredibly helpful

I am not experienced when it comes to auction buying but Patrick at Barney Estates and Auctioneers made the whole process very easy for me by giving his time to assist me in talking over the legals and giving me his advice after I sent him letters I received from the sellers solicitors.

Thank you so much Patrick for the time you gave me and all the follow up calls once you completed a task keeping me up to date with everything you did at your end.

Be very careful

Originally I left a review and then I took it off cos I thought Amiee was actually being genuine. It’s all a scam, they sold me a parcel of land with no access, but yet on their brochure it’s shows access. Access which has no connection to my parcel of land. It’s only when I visited the site I was told I was trespassing as the road was privately owned. The owner had written to the seller (strategic holdings 1 to 9) legal that they couldn’t use his road to access the parcels of land. Yet Barney Estate concealed this information in order to obtain a sale. My advise is never use an online auction house especially one which is not transparent in their dealings and will break their own code of conduct to make money. They are ruthless, have lost 10kg in the process of dealing with these white collar criminals. The seller is now seeking £10500 through insolvency, for the two day extra to his original completion date. Who completes a sale in 6 days. I offered to walk away, allowing them keep my £31,000 and the land which they rejected. Which makes perfect sense as land is worthless to them cos there’s no access. When you deal with reputable companies you won’t experience these issues. Regardless what you think I have witnesses, both have said I don’t have access and they live there. Some much for due diligence, charging £3300 for absolutely nothing. I will leave a negative comment every week to stop you from defrauding people.

Auction Sale - Knowledgeable and Fast

Very good experience. I am an experienced property investor, I must say I was impressed. From instruction to exchange it was swift. My unit was sold within two/three weeks. I had listed it previously in a larger organisation who failed in selling it. Recommend highly!

Miles and Elliot on the team are very knowledgable and work hard to get your property sold. Thnks

Dear Mr Boateng,

We understand that you are dissatisfied with your recent land purchase. We would like to address your concerns and provide some clarification on the matter. Firstly, we can assure you that there is access to the land you purchased at auction, this is evidenced in the title documentation.

We encourage all our potential auction purchasers to thoroughly review all legal packs and documents associated with the property before placing a bid. This is to ensure that buyers have a comprehensive understanding of the property, including any potential issues or restrictions. You had registered for several previous auctions with us, and you were asked to check the conditions of sale every time and to only bid if you were able to purchase in the terms of the contract.

We can’t comment on negotiations you are having with the seller’s solicitors.
If there are any other issues that Barney Estates and auctioneers can assist with, please do call us.
Barney Estates and Auctioneers.

It is not possible to give a higher rating, endorsement, or review of Elliot Bester and Barney Estates & Auctioneers. Elliot was instrumental in our recent successful purchase. Elliot helped us find our site and very quickly exchange, and complete all within one calendar week. Elliot was a pleasure to deal with and incredibly personable and professional and super efficient – making life incredibly easy for us. His experience, advice, and knowledge, were all very much instrumental and why we have taken the time to write such high praise. We thank him and Barney Estates and Auctioneers.

I have been struggling to sell my property for the last couple of years and finally decided to go down the auction route, Elliot and the rest of the team at Barneys were really good at explaining the steps and getting me to a point where I was able to finally sell my property, such a refreshing change from the local agents I have been using in the past. 10/10
