There's a lot of discussion at the moment about letting agents fees being too high. The last budget proposed legislation to counter what some letting agents charge for what amounts to a bit of photocopying. Langford russell earned every single penny of my tenancy fee.
I am a 'problem' tenant. I'm in good full time employment, I have never missed a payment of rent, but I have had bad credit in the past. I saw a lovely property with LR and had to move quickly to secure a deal with a rent reduction - two weeks to agree the tenancy and move! We all like a challenge, don't we?
I Put down a holding deposit. Thought I'd log on and check my credit file...DISASTER! A CCJ I knew nothing about, served to my old address. Very many phone calls and a few more grey hairs later, all sorted. I'm writing this on my second morning in my new house.
I genuinely feel LR did the absolute best they could for me. Staff were always professional, phoned me when they said they would, did a lot of intervention for me with the credit agency and I *always* felt they were on my side.
A few minor quibbles (I agree with previous review about paying massive end of tenancy clean fee at the start of my tenancy, but by the time I handed over the cash, I was so relieved to have the property I wanted, I was past caring.) It has been a very stressful couple of weeks, but I am delighted with LR and hope to be very happy in our new home.
