Thornley Groves purchased Barlow Costley lettings agents a few years ago and took the staff with them. It's just as well because the staff are superb.
They managed my property for about 6 years and in that time life has been so easy. When a repair ...

Comment on agent fees
The only issue that we had was that the property was put back on the market (albeit temporarily and unlikely to result in any interest) while our exchange was delayed despite us having paid the relevant fees to secure the property. Whilst I appreciate that this was done to appease the landlady and Jess reassured us that no interest would arise, we felt that this could be construed as being slightly unfair as we paid the fee in good faith, were told that it would secure the property and were only potentially delaying signing of the lease by one working day.
