Appalling estate agents. I spent £2000 on solicitors and a survey just to find out 2 weeks before exchange of the property in Martock that the illegal work done on the property which is grade 2 listed has never had restrospective planning permission and no certificates can be produced to ...

As a Purchaser, I have just had to withdraw from a property after being misled. I have also been shouted at, spoken to in a very patronising manner and had the phone slammed down on me twice. VERY UNPROFFESIONAL. To be avoided at all costs. I think they need a lesson in people skills. I have tried ... Read Full Review

Without a doubt, THE WORST company I have ever dealt with. If I could give no stars I would. To say that they are slow is an understatement. You report an issue (which we have had almost twenty) and they simply do not address it. We love our home, but have had problems with the boiler, problems ... Read Full Review

They subsequently failed to send me the leaving survey when the tenant left and I had to chase it for 2 ... Read Full Review

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.
