Bay Estate Agents Ltd: Reviews
Negative experience: A complete mess, I’ve been talking to Kelly and Kate about the return of my deposit for days and they’ve been confirming it will be returned on Friday. No money on Friday and it relied upon me to highlight to the agency that they sent my deposit of more than £1000 to a random person.
Thank you for your feedback. While this matter was resolved last Friday, we would like to clarify a few points for accuracy. An administrative error involving one digit of the account number meant the initial BACS payment could not be processed. This did not result in funds being sent to another individual, as stated.
As is standard with BACS payments, we are not immediately notified of incorrect details; rejected payments are typically returned after a few days. Once you informed us, we acknowledged the error and arranged a same-day payment on Friday—the scheduled date for your deposit return—so there was no delay.
We strive to provide a professional and respectful service and regret that your experience did not reflect this. However, we believe it is important that the circumstances are represented accurately, particularly as the matter was resolved promptly.
Fantastic experience: Excellent service, quick transaction for this chain free sale. Easy and painless from start to finish, viewing, making offer, arranging surveying, and the final contract exchange.
Fantastic experience: I bought a property through Bay Estate Agents and could not be more happier with regard to transparency in overall process, updates in the purchase and responding so quickly to keep all parties in the loop.

Fantastic experience: I've worked with Bay Estates both as a Landlord and then on the subsequent sale of the property and I honestly cannot rate them more highly! Their staff are very professional but also friendly and accommodating. Since I am living in Australia it's also been particularly important to have a very competent agency managing my investment. Bay Estates helped put my mind at ease and I always felt that my property and, importantly my tenants, were well looked after. Given the awkward time zones and therefore challenges in communicating I can safely say that the staff at Bay Estates went above and beyond to accommodate me. I have experience of other agencies as a Landlord and also as a tenant and I would, without doubt, recommend Bay Estates highly to anyone who is looking to lease, rent or sell.

This property provides a supplement to my pension after having to retire early at the age of 50, making it an important adjunct to my income. Their team has been exceptional in terms of their marketing, dealing with prospective tenants, establishment of new contracts, and taking care of my tenants by reacting swiftly to any problems they may encounter.

Fantastic experience: Very impressed with Bay estate agents and their processes in obtaining this fantastic property in the Mayals. Claudio Gomes the letting Manager / Negotiator was unbelievably professional in helping us secure this property. With issues in selling our home Claudio negotiated different moving dates between the landlord and ourselves and mediated to make both parties happy under difficult circumstances. This skill is credit to him and the company. We would recommend Bay estate agents to any potential buyer / landlord / or tenant. Thank you Claudio a true gent in this industry.

When our offer for the property was accepted Claudio kept us well informed promptly and in great detail of each stage of the process and always replied to our messages within a few hours which was a great help to us. This made our overall experience of buying a property much less stressful. Claudio is an asset to Bay Estate Agents and we wish him well for the future. Thank you Claudio

Hi there. We would dearly like to know a little more about your situation and whether there is anything we can do to help. Naturally, we're very sorry if you have had a negative experience and would like to learn from this, at the very least. At the moment, we have no means of knowing who you are or what the complaint is. We would be most grateful if you would drop us an email at [email protected] and we'll do our very best to assist.
Fantastic experience: I have been living in the UK for over 10 years, rented about flats from different agents. Batstate agent was the best in term of professionalism and friendly at the same time.
Fantastic experience: This is the first time I have used Bay Estate & Letting Agents in Swansea.

I have no hesitation in highly recommending this very knowledgeable and experienced team. Thankyou Del Allen
Fantastic experience: Very good experience fitted us in fir a viewing at short notice. Alex arrived on time and allowed us time to view the property. What questions he couldn't answer he agreed to find out. Unfortunately when we called to arrange a second viewing of the property the owner had already accepted an offer.
Dear Susan, thank you for such a kind review. I’m sorry that you weren’t able to secure the property on this occasion. Alex is a new employee and I’m sure your review will be a great confidence boost. Thanks again.
Fantastic experience: Excellent friendly, helpful and professional service.
Fantastic experience: This company is professional but small enough to be very personal, I would recommend them to sell any house.

The personal help from Robin D’Darcy and Claudio Gomez was above and beyond professional and if I had to sell another house I wouldn’t hesitate to use their services again.

Thank you for your kind review.
Negative experience: Wanted to view property in St Catherine's Court but won't let us unless we prove we have the money. Sorry to the seller we won't be considering your property. We won't be using this company to sell our house either.
Dear Mr Price,
We are disappointed to read your feedback and sorry if you were affronted in any way by our viewing procedure.
A good agent will always look to make enquiries to ensure that the viewer is in a position to proceed to a sale. More so in the case of the property you were interested in viewing (St Christophers Court not St Catherines Court). This is because the majority of blocks within the courts are not currently mortgageable until the relevant fire remedial work is carried out and so only a cash purchase would be viable for the moment. If we don’t check for proof of funds, then a sale could collapse, causing loss of time and expense for both buyer and vendor. Our colleague explained this.
Another reason is that this particular property is also rented and we have to manage the amount of traffic through the property to help keep tenants covid-safe. That is why we ask our applicants to confirm that they are in a proceedable position or have a property already on the market. For those who have not reached this stage, we have a wide selection of virtual tours available.
In light of what we have said, I hope you will reconsider your review as it is a procedure that we follow in the best interest of our clients and customers.
I’m sure that when you come to sell your house then you will expect your agent to act accordingly.
Naturally, we’d be happy to discuss this further with you in person or by email if you are willing.
Fantastic experience: Friendly, helpful staff.
Thank you, David. Very much appreciated.
Fantastic experience: Bay Estate Agents are very professional and efficient rental property manager and sales agents who we have used for many years to provide both services.

Fantastic experience: I was a tenant of Bay Lettings in Swansea Marina for 15 months. Ever member of staff I came across was friendly and professional.

I would highly recommend them to tenants and landlords!
Thank you, Eileen.
Fantastic experience: A lovely clean property by the sea
Thank you, Kirsty.
Fantastic experience: A first class organisation - couldn't recommend highly enough.
Fantastic experience: I have been using Bay Estate Agents Ltd for many years, when I need to rent a flat in Swansea on a short term basis. Bay Lettings have always been courteous, professional and helpful, and have always found me a very comfortable flat at reasonable rates. They take great care and pride in their service and I would heartily recommend them to anyone.
Fantastic experience: I have always been very impressed by the quality of the service provided by Bay Estate Agents. I stayed in one of the flats they manage on several occasions within the last few years. The flat always looked very clean upon arrival, the agents were always very friendly, professional and helpful, and they always went above and beyond to make sure I had a nice stay. They are also very reliable, and excellent communicators.
Fantastic experience: We recently purchased 2 properties simultaneously with Bay and couldn't have been happier with the level of service we were provided from our agent. He was extremely helpful with his knowledge of the properties within our preferred area and particularly helpful whilst negotiations were ongoing between us and the respective Vendors.
Fantastic experience: Bays have helped me put my property onto the Letting market giving great personal advice and support during a very difficult time of the Pandemic. Many Thanks for all your help.
Thank you for your kind review, Pearl.
Fantastic experience: I would recommend Bay Estates to anyone buying, selling or renting in Swansea.
Thank you, Steve.
Fantastic experience: I rented a property through Bay Estates & Letting for the past year. Claudio Gomes managed the property I was renting and was extremely reliable and helpful throughout my tenancy. This was the first property I’ve ever rented so I was clueless - but the amount of support and information I received from Claudio and Bay estates really made me feel at ease. The property was kept to a very high standard and the process was very straightforward. I felt lucky to rent from a very friendly and supportive company and would 100% recommend.
Thank you for your kind review, Bryoni. Renting can be a bit of a minefield and I’m glad you felt that we made the process a little easier to navigate.
Fantastic experience: It's my first experience here in Uk as a Tranent and I was lucky to deal with them specially Claudio who is the best , he is professional and expert in his job and helpful . They are honest and bring you the best quality
Thank you, Mohammed. I’m glad we were able to help with your first experience of renting here in UK.
Fantastic experience: I was recommended Bay Estate Agents by a friend and they definitely lived up to their reputation! Claudio was so helpful, accommodating and went further than the extra mile, even checking in on his days off! And when he wasn't in, his team, particularly Laura, provided the same amazing standard of service, something I have never experienced before when dealing with staff not specifically assigned to me. These guys treat you like individuals and really care about helping you and it shows in the way they do business. Normally I wouldn't even think about the service when looking for a place to live but it made a world of difference for me, especially when moving to a new city! 1000% recommend!
Hi Ella. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave this review. Your comments have meant a lot to our team and have been truly motivational. Personal service is what we strive for and it’s a side of the business where the team gets a lot of personal satisfaction so to have this recognised in this way is humbling and a great source of pride. Thanks again.
Negative experience: I wouldn’t recommend international students to deal with them at all .
Hi Jasmine. Having checked with staff, our lettings database and all email leads, we have absolutely no record of you as a client with us. From your profile we can see that you leave exclusively one star reviews. If that’s your thing then fine but these kind of reviews are damaging for a family business, particularly in these difficult times. If you have a genuine concern or grievance, please be upfront and get in touch with us and we’ll do whatever we can to resolve this for you and improve on an area you feel is lacking.
Fantastic experience: "I have leased numerous apartments with Bay Estate! Most recent trip was cancelled due to Covid and Kate D'Arcy worked tirelessly to get our money refunded since it was not our fault we couldn't make the trip. She went above and beyond to take care of my family!!"
Negative experience: A joke- wouldn't recommend to anyone. Stayed in the ground floor flat in Ferrara Square for barely 6 months. The flat was disgusting, full of fungi and damp, dirty and full of precious tenant's stuff and landlords garbage-basically his storage unit or something. There's always someone walking past and no privacy at all. The house is neglected and it's right next to a bin ( rats and always a mess!)The agents are incredibly unprofessional and incompetent of proving any kind of service. If you happened to already be with them I would really recommend you take as many pictures and as write a really detailed inventory or they will scam you where they can. Otherwise just go to another agency where they will actually be able to provide decent service for your money. Update: I would really recommend looking for flats with Peter Alan. More competent and definitely more professional.
Dear Natalia. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I’m sorry that you have not enjoyed your experience at one of our rental properties. Your flat was in an elevated ground floor position and popular over its ten years of rental due to its location, overlooking the Marina basin. Albeit elevated, this does mean that there will be pedestrians walking past and I’m sorry if, over the course of the six-months, this has become an issue and perhaps you would be better suited to an upper floor flat. I’m afraid we have no knowledge of any problems with the public bin but we will make enquiries with the Residents Association to see if this is a common problem.
The flat was photographed for sales purposes prior to you moving in and was clean and presentable. You were also given opportunity to return to us with any problems or queries over cleaning so that we could attend to these as required.
Your property manager is particularly saddened by your comments as it was felt that every query was met and the landlord took time to visit the property in December to remedy any issues highlighted.
There was a condensation build-up at the property due to the sheer volume of belongings and cardboard boxes and a requirement for the property to be regularly aired and ventilated.
Finally, the only deposit deduction requested was for an end of let clean, which was evidenced through before and after photographs. As is your right, you took this to dispute and I am sorry if you are unhappy with the result.
The words “Scam” and “A**holes”, as you have referred to us on another social media page, are very emotive terms and I’m sorry if you have been left frustrated to this degree. If you’d like to contact us, we’d be happy to talk this through with you to see where we can improve our service in future.
Update: Dear Natalia, it’s a shame that you have decided to update this two years on from your original review. Stay safe and be kind.
Fantastic experience: "The service provided by Bay was comprehensive from start to finish, it was not a fast sale, but I felt that everything possible was done to make the sale, with more than satisfactory communication during selling which continued once the sale was made. I couldn’t be happier with the process."
Thank you, Jon.
Fantastic experience: Bay Lettings have handled our property very well so far :) the whole set up was really easy and they keep us well informed!
Thank you for your kind review.
