Have rented an apartment from them. On the nice day they told us that non of the agreed repairs had been completed and said we could still move in but would have to agree with this. My housemate had arranged for all of her stuff to be moved up from London so we had no choice. Our move in date was the 2nd and despite rent due being on the 28th of the month they still had the audacity to charge us a full month rent. And they repairs that hadn't been completed was endless. Firstly the living room- part if the floor had come up and both sofas are broken. The door to the living room was broken resulting in my housemate getting stuck and having to call a locksmith to let her out. The kitchen: The grill on the oven doesn't work and all the markings on the buttons have come off meaning we don't know what temperature to set it at. Main bathroom: Possible black mould in the bathroom which hasn't been addresses despite me informing them I have asthma and this could be a serious health issue for me. The plug in the bath is broken and one of the lights is broken. One of the lights in the hall is gone. Ensuite bedroom: all the furniture is broken including the best and is damaging my housemates back its in such a state. The shower head is also rusty which can cause legion Ella. This means both showers were broken and we had to make the choice between not being able to let water out of the bath or becoming ill. Second bedroom: again all the furniture is broken and the bed is terrible giving me a bad back which means I've had to stay at my boyfriends most nights. I don't want to pay for an apartment I'm not going to stay in. And finally after a ridiculous long list all walla are dirty and havn't been painted. So many of these issue are in breach of our rights as tenants and according to my friend who practices real estate law we not only have the right to withhold rent under the housing act but can also contact the encironmental agency and they can blacklist the landlord
Comment on agent fees
Terrible. Don't understand what we paid for because they are terrible at communication from start to finish. Would only contact us when it involved getting money of us not and often didn't respond when we had a problem
