My worst experience as a tenant. Incompetent and untrustworthy. For months we had a boiler that broke down several times a week, including over Xmas.

We liked a property which was sold. This estate agent told us it was sold but it turned out it was taken off the market. We was told they would keep us informed. They didn't. It came back on the market and we went to the agent and asked if we could put an offer in as we had already viewed the ... Read Full Review

We tried emailing and phoning this agency about a house we were interested in viewing. The email wasn't replied to and each time we phoned we were cut off before anyone even responded to our call.

If I could give a zero or minus rating, this branch would get it. Avoid at all cost. I have never come across such an unprofessional and untrustworthy establishment. The reason Sharon was named is because I believe she has been the biggest problem. For a branch manager, I would expect excellent ... Read Full Review
