I was really misled by these agents - when signing a 6-month contract, they assured it was a formality and it would be definitely renewed. I furnished it, enrolled my son in a local school. Then, a week before Christmas, they send a letter saying that they won't renew it (certainly not due to non-payment as my rent was paid by standing order). They have now re-advertised the property for more money! I had to find another property over the Christmas period and have now moved - Northwood are now bombarding me with threatening e-mails because I moved out before end of the tenancy.
Some of their staff are extremely rude - for example, when I phoned the office to enquire after my numerous unanswered e-mails and messages about the broken tap and a leaking 20-year old fridge, she answered "What now?"!!!
They have absolutely no interest in maintaining the properties. Even before I moved in, they failed to get rid of a wasps' nest above the door even though the neighbour called them several times. In the end the neighbour paid for it to be removed himself! I waited 3 months (!!!) to get a hot water tap in the bathroom fixed (a problem, they admitted had already been brought to their attention by the previous tenant). And on and on it went.
They are very unprofessional and rude, I would never recommend anyone to use them.
