What Our Customers Say

Very impressed with Swetenhams in Chester. Nathan and the Lettings Team were very attentive and followed up very well. Very professional and will likely work with them again. We opted for a 'Let Only' Service for personal reasons but for the next property we'll likely go with a fully managed service. Thanks Nathan! show more
, Cheshire, Mar 2023
My partner and I were looking to rent our first home and Swetenhams were so quick to respond and get the ball rolling for us. As we were first time renters, our lovely team of Fraser and Thayf were incredibly helpful! No questions were silly questions, they pointed us in all the right directions and they were always available. BRILLIANT! show more

Mr M, Cheshire, Jul 2021
What a fantastic experience we have had letting our apartment out with Fraser and Thayf from Swetenhams. From empty to let in under a week, I've been so impressed from start to finish. Not only are they both friendly, professional and smart, they also have a clear understanding of the rental market and that knowledge puts them above the rest. I would absolutely recommend Fraser and Thayf to anyone. show more
