About GetAgent’s Top Performer Award
GetAgent is the estate agent comparison website that collates property data directly from the Land Registry, Rightmove, Zoopla and OnTheMarket to help homeowners make a more informed decision on which estate agents to instruct based on who performs best in their area. This is assessed against three core performance metrics:

Percentage of the original asking price achieved
Average sale time
Number of properties listed in the past 6 months

The GetAgent proprietary algorithm then combines these performance metrics to discern the best-performing agents in the area. The average asking price achieved is the most heavily weighted of the three metrics – something all our clients appreciate.

Based on these metrics and our exceptional sales performance this year, James Laurence is currently classed as Top Performers in the following areas:

Birmingham B1, B3, B15, B18
EdgbastonB5, B15, B16, B17

This award distinguishes us as being among the best in these areas based purely on performance. It also demonstrates our continued commitment to providing our clients with exceptional results backed by decades of combined expertise.

James Laurence Testimonials

“A really professional and excellent service. James Laurence were really professional, courteous, and helped the process of renting my apartment to be really easy and swift as a first time landlord. They were very transparent with costs and the feedback from the tenants to help me make the right decision. I will continue to use them and happy to recommend them to others.

It was clear they vet tenants carefully which gave me a lot of confidence in finding the right person.”

“Professional, friendly and efficient service – James Laurence is a professional agency which keeps you updated on the service they’re providing. Calls and emails are answered and updates given. I would recommend them to anyone needing an Estate Agent”

“This is our second experience with James Laurence, this time as Sellers but 2.5 years ago as buyers. I wrote a review about the previous experience which was excellent and I believe this experience warrants another great review. This time we worked more directly with Henry who is an excellent communicator. From the word go he demonstrated impressive subject matter expertise, confidence and professionalism. He regularly follows up on progress and bridges the gap between purchaser and vendor extremely well. I’m confident that James Laurence is a company that has high standards embedded into its culture and highly recommend them”

The people we've helped
  • 5 star review  We recently switched from another letting agency to James Laurence, as we found their team so warm and friendly and loved the local aspect of the agency. The team have absolutely exceeded our expectations, making the changeover feel so seamless and finding new tenants for our apartment at really short notice. Lotti could not have been more wonderful to work with, going completely above and beyond to ensure our tenants could move in just before Christmas. We felt an immediate affinity with her and have so appreciated her attention to detail, quick thinking and creativity. She has made us feel so at ease, supported and like our property is in the safest of hands. Charlotte and Melissa have also been so helpful and lovely to deal with during the process. Having worked with several other agencies in Birmingham, I cannot recommend James Laurence highly enough. Look no further, they are the best!

  • 5 star review  The team at James Laurence was very helpful when I tried to find an apartment in Birmingham. I was in contact with a different letting agency but things fell through and they couldn't help me. A colleague of mine recommended James Laurence Lettings so I emailed them immediately since I was was moving from Sweden and the move would take place in less than a week. The team at James Laurence responded within 5 minutes and managed to offer me a few different apartment-options. Things proceeded quickly and smoothly and just a few days later I had they keys to the apartment. James Laurence helped me every step of the way and went above and beyond to accommodate my requests. The only minor negative thing I can say is that the interntal communication could be improved a tiny bit. I received slightly different information depending on who I was speaking with at the time. When I said I received different information earlier the person I spoke to said she would talk to her colleagues and then get in contact with me later with the "correct" information which she did and the issue got solved very quick.

  • 5 star review  Our experience with James Laurence Estate Agents was absolutely fantastic! Melissa Wilson made the application and referencing process smooth and easy with excellent communication. Everyone we spoke with from the office was kind, helpful, and welcoming. To top it all off, the loft we moved into was even better than the pictures! We are thrilled with our new home and we would absolutely recommend James Laurence to anyone looking for a place to live!

  • 5 star review  I have been very impressed with James Laurence, who have recently sold my property. Having previously had a poor experience with Purple Bricks, I instructed James Laurence to help sell my property. I have worked with Henry throughout the whole process and have found him to be very professional and knowledgeable as well as being efficient. It can't be stressed enough how important this is to have an estate agent that responds quickly, negotiates well and truly understands the market (especially during uncertain times like recently with the cover pandemic). I have briefly worked with Caroline and some of the other team members who also seem to be very efficient and friendly. Thanks again to James Laurence who I would fully recommend to anyone looking to Buy/Sell in Birmingham.

  • 5 star review  I recently sold my property with James Laurence, and the overall experience was great. They demonstrated a good knowledge of the Birmingham property market when discussing sales strategy, marketing and pricing (more than I was expecting) towards the beginning of my experience with them. This showed when we achieved 2 asking price offers within the first couple days of showings. Once an offer was accepted, their support did not stop there, Caroline (Sales Progression) did a fantastic job at liaising between myself and the buyers side, helping to progress items and remove any potential blockers. I would fully recommend James Laurence to anyone looking to Buy/Sell in Birmingham.
