Any students thinking of renting through Tiger Properties I would strongly advise against doing so. My son rented a house with friends whilst at Manchester University and after leaving the property at the end of June it is only in mid October that they have returned deposit monies and only a small fraction of the deposit given to them. They have deducted for a mattress to be replaced. This is the same disgusting mattress that was there when he moved in (of which we took photos) and we bought mattress covers and toppers so it was bearable to use. Also the house was damp and had water stains down the wall and he has been charged for a broken door which had literally rotted. This was confirmed by a contractor who visited the house to check the door frame. He has also been charged for another tenant's room damage. I have telephoned several times to be told the person that deals with it is not there and will ring back and have never received a return call. Also as there were several students in the house they would only speak to the 'nominated' student. All utility bills were also processed by a company called Glide. For any student renting in Manchester please beware that Glide charge a vast amount per unit and when taking a tenancy agreement you must ask to choose your own supplier or you will be soundly ripped off.
Comment on agent fees
The fees are probably commensurate with other companies fees.

Good morning, I am sorry you feel this way about Tiger Student Properties. The tenants moved in the day after the old tenants moved out and we made your son and his housemates aware that the house may not be up to scratch but we would do everything we can to rectify the matter ASAP. We stuck to our word and had cleaners in almost immediately and also carried out a full inventory inspection. In regards to your sons deposit, we have not deducted for a new mattress we deducted for a mattress clean which was explained (the mattress was clean at the beginning of tenancy). The reason the deposit returns took so long to return was due to the fact that we had not received final bills for this property and in our contract which all 8 tenants signed it states ‘The tenant must show that all relevant utility bills have been paid off before the balance of Deposit can be returned, and must have returned all keys issued to the Tenant at the start of the tenancy.' At the start of the tenancy I explained that the lead tenant who signed would be the main point of contact at the end of the tenancy in regards to any deposit disputes. Your son informed me that he would be responsible for the other roommates broken window which he admitted he had broken. We are in no way affiliated with Glide so any issues with this company is not at a fault of Tiger Properties. However if you do have any other issues you would like to discuss please call the branch manager who would be happy to discuss this further.

Hi Julia,
Aside from the fact that everybody you can speak to outside your industry agrees that asking someone to pay for one months rent when you don't live at the property is morally wrong, therefore this agreement should have always happened. You have completely disregarded the issues we were reporting to your company for the previous 12 months with absolutely no action taken in regards to the damp and the sofas.
If any of your other tenants go through something similar, I hope you treat th ...

Hello,
Thank you for your recent review.
We are sorry to hear about your experience with one of our landlord's properties.
Mice were reported 7th March (PM) and maintenance attended the property 10th March (AM) to apply poison. We kindly asked tenants at the property to keep us up to date with the situation, but we haven't had any further correspondence. We are unclear about the comment that vermin have been in the property for the previous three years as the current tenants have only b ...

To be honest, I didn't see the point in making a complaint. I made so many complaints when I was living there, but nothing got sorted, what's the point in making a complaint now? All I want to do is warn people to not rent a property with you. Let me just say, I had nothing to do with any of the damage in the house (as you know) and do not think it's fair how my other housemates and I were treated because of this. By the way, that carpet was definitely not new when we moved in, at least a few ye ...

We the former tenants of aforesaid house are disappointed to read your reply and are confused at parts of your statements that seem entirely aimed towards trying to disclaim statements that are entirely true.

Dear fellowza,
First of all I'm really sorry that you've felt it necessary to put this bad review of us on Allagents. Everything regarding the maintenance of your apartment you state is true and usually the causes of damp mould in student rented properties like yours are exactly as I stated, so I did visit your apartment personally and spoke to you about this a few weeks ago.
What none of us was aware of however - and something we've only learnt about in the last few days - is that the water m ...
