Best Agent Ever!

Rob was perfect from the first contact all the way up to the collecting the keys. He went out of his way to ensure my viewing, document signings and enquiries with the landlord were seamless. Everything was completed very swiftly and I was in my new place in under two weeks. Best agent you could have. Thank you!

Helpful, professional and a pleasure to deal with.

I have been working with Rob for around 5 years now, nothing is too much trouble, he is always available for a call or a chat if needed and he is very professional and upfront. He keeps me well informed of progress, is very knowledgable in his line of work and always gives an honest opinion. A genuine person and a pleasure to work with.

Highly recommend HBL

I recently moved into my new flat, and I want to say a huge thank you to Rob for making the whole process smooth and stress-free. From the very beginning, he was clear, helpful, and always quick to respond to my questions. He went out of his way to ensure everything was in place for my move-in date and to make sure I settled in comfortably. I’m looking forward to my time here, thanks to his support.

Great experience thanks to Rob

Had recently moved into a flat with the help of Rob. He made sure the process went as smooth as possible and we moved in just in time. I had a great experience thanks to him and I do highly recommend HBL and Rob as a letting agent.

I would not hesitate to recommend him to any landlords!

5 stars all the way for Rob and the amazing HBL Homes!
Buying your first home can be so overwhelming but Rob was there every step of the way (out of hours and weekends) talking me through and guiding me in this very daunting process! Not only did I end up with my Dream Home I’ve made a great friend in Rob!

Highly Recommend

We recently became first-time landlords and chose HBL Homes to help us find a tenant—and we couldn't be happier with our experience! From start to finish, Robert was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. He guided us through the entire process, ensuring everything was handled smoothly and efficiently.

HBL Homes found us the right tenant for our property, and their attention to detail and communication made the entire process stress-free. They took care of all the paperwork and made sure we felt confident as new landlords.

We highly recommend HBL Homes to anyone looking for a reliable and professional letting agent!
