They are Jesse Gregory (pictured top), age 23, from Tadley, Hampshire; Edward Wall, (pictured below) also 23, from Micheldever, Winchester, and Joey Cole, aged 19, from Paices Hill, Aldermaston
Mr Gregory and Mr Wall both pleaded guilty to one count of handling stolen goods; three counts of burgling a dwelling; and one count of attempted burglary.
Both were sentenced to four years imprisonment at Reading Crown Court on Monday, January 20.
Cole was sentenced to six months imprisonment after pleaded guilty to one count of being carried in a stolen motor vehicle and one count of attempted burglary.
The charge of the handling of stolen goods relates to a vehicle stolen in Mortimer on July 29, 2013.
The three property burglaries relate to offences in West Ilsley, Chievely and Hermitage on on August 11, 2013.
The attempted burglary charge relates to an offence in Sherfield-on-Loddon on August 15 last year.

Investigating officer, Det Con James Faulkner, said: “The three defendants form part of a disciplined and effective organised crime network that conspired together to burgle properties targeting isolated rural communities across police boundaries.
“Following a successful operation by the Serious and Organised Crime Unit, supported by the Dedicated Surveillance Team and Tactical Firearms Team, all three pleaded guilty to various offences and have received custodial sentences. It is hoped that this will serve as deterrent to those criminals who wish to target the rural community."
Local Policing Area Commander for West Berkshire Supt Robin Rickard, said: “Tackling and disrupting criminals who prey on the rural communities in West Berkshire is a priority.
"I am very pleased with the sentences imposed and I am determined to continue to work with other agencies and the communities of West Berkshire to do all we can to prevent criminals operating in West Berkshire and to target those who do".
