The guys were super helpful, really flexible and the whole transition was really smooth.
I have already recommended Spencers to my old landlords to use as an agency instead of abbeymove, as the service was thorough and super easy.
All the staff were really friendly....

Dear RG
Thank you for your feedback and I am pleased to see that overall you felt our service was ‘friendly and efficient'.
Thank you for taking the time to speak with the office Manager earlier. Although I am disappointed that you initially felt your questions in relation to the tenancy agreement were not answered sufficiently, I understand that following your subsequent conversation with the Manager you now feel that these questions have been addressed in a satisfactory manner.
