If i could leave this agency zero stars i would. My tenancy ended on the 24th of august 2019 and i still haven't received my deposit back.

When I begun writing this review, I attempted to think of something good to open with - you know, two stars and a wish and all that - but I failed. There is literally nothing good to say about this agency, if I could give them 0/5 stars I would. They ignore repairs, don't take concerns ... Read Full Review

I don't have the highest of expectations with agencies as I've used a few and have rented as a non-student, but I wouldn't recommend even looking at BAAs properties. The big problems were that they broke the law by repeatedly breaking contract in regards to our right to 24 hours notice before any ... Read Full Review

What agent could do to change your mind?

What a terrible experience!!! Be warned these 3 are total crooks. I ended up having to take legal action against them for withholding my deposit. James slammed the phone down on me, Beth promised my deposit back but a month went by and she lied through her teeth, and Dan Lyons, the supposed brains behind the operation is utterly useless! The dog is the most professional thing in the whole company!!!!! They moved a new student into my room before I had moved out!!! Awful people, terrible experience, filthy house, with no mod cons. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!

Comments on Agent Fees

Agency fees were a joke considering they never actually did anything to sort out any problems we had which we were told is why we paid them agency fees rather than having direct contact with a landlord.
