Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

About 12 years ago i moved my property from a larger company in the area to Martyn Russell for letting services and over the years they have done an excellent job both for me as landlord and my tenants. They are a small family concern but nevertheless efficient and professional in dealing with my ... Read Full Review

We was renting through Martyn Russel, it was absolutely great experience, I wish all agencies would be this professional & nice. Martyn is an absolute delight. Our landlord was also very nice.

One word describes this outfit of alleged rental agents - dire. From the first communication to the last it was incredibly painful. The first complaint is the fee the agent charges - £1000 for my wife and I. Not bad one might think - but it is very poor as the first time we actually ... Read Full Review

We have rented our property through Martyn Russell for almost two years now and as landlords we have been thoroughly satisfied with the service they have provided us. They found us wonderful tenants within one week of being instructed and everything went smoothly with them moving in, and has ... Read Full Review
We feel that the fees charged are fair and below average for the area.

*They took 85% of my deposit and charged me for the removal of rubbish that was left there before me. They told my landlord to evict me. They constantly told me 'phone the landlord' and the landlord told me 'call Martin Russel the rip off merchants'. They knew I was a student and charged me the ... Read Full Review

I can only advise that if you are looking to buy a property in the Wokingham/Winnersh/Earley/Reading area you use any one of the vast number of estate agents competing with Martyn Russell in the area. We rented a house in Winnersh and are now in dispute over retrieving our deposit back from the ... Read Full Review
Be honest and have a little bit of integrity in the first place knowing what the previous tenants of the house had been through.
Very poor service, fees are extortionate, customer service is non-existent.

15 May 2019Not sure who this Phil guy is or who's payroll he was on, but we have never rented a property in Winnersh for £1800. Another pure...

I would just like to add to the previous reviews on this board at add my recent experience with them. Add everything gone smoothly I'm sure the only thing I would not like is the amount of administration fee to pay.... However this is not the case they have shown poor communication, poor 'people ...

Just be as proactive as I was when dealing with money, and always kept a \'professional\' tone when dealing with them as I did. They need to give more to earn back there Kharma. Dom.

Ever the odd one out it would seem, but I had an excellent experience renting through Martyn Russell for a year. We had been struggling to find anywhere as anything matching our requirements seemed to be snapped up before it even went up on the websites. Explaining this to Andy he called with a ...

Cheap and cheerful and middle of the road!. When I rented with them, if there was a maintenance problem, they dealt with it quickly which was great. Martyn Russell's tended to get unmodernised, low end houses but having been in a "professional" house share, they were content with ... Read Full Review

24 Apr 2012This suposed ex-tenant must be confusing my Company with someone else, we do not offer unmodernised houses for rental as they would not conform to Health and Safety standards. We do offer rooms for...

I lived in a ridiculously large and rather old house for 3 years with this agency, until August 2008. As you can imagine there was no desire to update the dodgy electrics or replace the increasingly money-swallowing oil tank, but the main issue was when I came to leave the property. Unfortunately ...

14 Mar 2011Obviously this comment is untrue as we do not or have ever had a property with an oil heating system on our books. If you read this letter you will find it to be fully of holes and basically its a...

Disorganised cowboys, that completely lose interest once they have your money. It took two weeks to finalise moving in, of which we were paying during that time without actually being within the property. Their listings upon letting sites are a lot lower than the actual rent, be warned of their ... Read Full Review

[[EDIT ORIGINAL START]] Absolutely shocking. These brainless amateurs kept us without fully-functioning hot water and heating for 6 months. When we complained, we were treated as an unwanted hinderance and NEVER as valued customers. They only finally took some action when we complained in front of ... Read Full Review
