It has been horrible dealing with this agency. They had an abusive attitude towards me as a tenant. For example, it took them more that three months to replace a defective heater, and provided unreasonable excuses when it came to releasing my deposit.

STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS AGENCY! Theres MICE issues which they refused to take care of, MOULD everywhere, they take ages to do repairs, if they do them at all. You can expect a house thats basically FALLING APART, and later blame you so they can keep your deposit. They sent pest control for the mice issue but even stated themselves “pest control dont do anything, they just put down poison and that it” well if you know that why wont you send someone in to find and close up the entry points!
We had a break in in the house, they did nothing, claimed it was a tenant dispute despite the fact that the person who broke in was not on the lease. The person who broke in mostly destroyed things belonging to me and my flatmates, but also sprayed liquids on the walls so they had to be repainted. At first they refused to do any repairs resulted from the break in, they only started to do repairs when everyone in the house wanted to move out and they had to rent it to someone else.
There was another issue with one of the tenants who went to deliver the keys in the office and he became very aggressive with them, causing a scene. Yet, they refused to take his keys and encouraged him to go back to the house to “sort things out”. So that he could start a fight with me and the other flatmates instead? ENCOURAGING A VERY UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT.
They started to hold viewings while I still lived there, which was fine, however they refused to wear masks any time they entered the property. Yet when you go to the office you must wear a mask and sanitise upon entry, so its not like they dont know the severity of the pandemic. But its clear that TENANTS SAFETY IS NOT A CONCERN. One day when there had a been viewing I came home hours later only to find that Chris had left the GARDEN DOOR WIDE OPEN! Encouraging another break in or maybe increase the mice issue?
Like others have stated on here, they will find ANY EXCUSE TO NOT GIVE YOU YOUR DEPOSIT BACK. They blamed me for the break in stating it was a tenants dispute despite the fact that there was a third party who broke in, and therefore refuse to return the deposit.
If you ever need something from them such as repairs they will not answer emails and make excuses on the phone. However if they need something from you they will harass you with endless phone calls! DO YOURSELF A FAVOUR AND FIND ANY OTHER AGENCY.
Was also asked to please write them a positive review, so I’m gonna guess the few positive ones on here were asked the same, and they probably havent lived there long enough to get the real experience of what a shit show this agency actually is.

London’s People were really great with us and worked tirelessly to re-house us when an unscrupulous landlord left us with nowhere to live THE DAY BEFORE we were due to move to London (we were coming from abroad and moving our whole lives… Our stuff was already boxed up and being loaded into the removal van and the new tenants were moving in to our flat in Paris). London’s People totally saved us- they were super helpful, very strong on communication and found us a great flat really quickly- we’ve just moved in and we love it. Thanks in particular to both Sal and Daniye, who really went the extra mile for usl. I really can’t recommend LP enough- actual human letting agents not just people trying to get money! Thanks again guys, Francesca.

I don’t hate London’s People
like most people do
I’ve grown quite fond of the things
they keep saying they’ll look into.
I no longer mind the hole in the floor
or the overpriced rent
and the broken lock on the toilet door.
I even quite like the rats and the mice
The ants in the kitchen
the bedbugs and the lice.
The clapped out boiler
that needs a new part
is now a dear friend, close to my heart.
Broken promises are all part of the charm
they’re just trying to get by
they don’t mean you any harm.
You see I like London’s People
I swear to god that it’s true
They’re the perfect letting agent
for the masochist in you.

Londons people are the worst estate agents you could ever choose no house is worth having to deal with Londons People. They are the scum of all letting agents which you can see by these reviews. First of all I will address the issue which is Chris Chris Socrates the owner of Londons people. The First day we moved in we were given the wrong keys, we were left waiting for 4 hours with all our belongings in the garden. Chris turns up 4 hours late, no apology upon arrival he simply went to the back window and smashed it to get into the house, this is the kind of person I had to deal with for two years. Chris is a very angry LITTLE man who's only objective is to rip people off, especially students as well as first time tenants. This is a man who has verbally abused me on the phone more than once, simply I was asking him to fix issues with the property I was living at at the time. This is the man that left us in a unfit and frankly disgusting house where two tenants including myself were getting ill from the conditions we were left in and only fixed issues when he was threatened with action from environmental health. He is the kind of person to shout down the phone and then not turn up to the house and send one of his employees who are equally as uneducated and useless as Chris himself. I word of advice to anyone who is looking to rent No. 66 St Julians Farm Road, this house has a severe damp problem due to a leak in the roof, something which Londons people refuse to address, the bathroom is constantly mouldy as well as the rooms and they will come round and paint over this again and again, accusing tenants of not maintaining the property when infant its the letting agents who cut corners and bodge everything they possibly can to same some money. I have evidence, videos and images to back up this claim and will be more than happy to speak to anyone who is having the same issues time and time again with Londons people. Chris will try to take your deposit away at the end of the tenancy and add charges on top of anything he possibly can. Make sure you photograph the house when you move in if you want any of your deposit back, something which we happened to do and left Londons people and its colleagues looking very stupid when they infect had to return our money. AVOID these letting agents by all costs it is not worth your money or time find another property or letting agents.

Awful and Untrustworthy

By : Chris Socrates
Mar 9, 2018In response to Mr Neish With regards to my being an angry little man I'm nothing of the sort. I have a job to do and one of those jobs is to collect rent and pass it onto landlords. If you were renting your property through us and a tent was consistently late with his/her rent you would be glad that I'm on your side. Mr Neish and one of the other tenants were late with their rent during most of the tenancy and month after month it was necessary to chase them. They stopped responding to my calls, failed to reply to our emails, ignored letters. Mr Neish feels that because he doesn't have adaqate funds to meet his commitments he can just go on enjoying this supposedly damp and uninhabitable house. Might be a good time to point out that the three other tenants paid their rent on time every month. One of them asked me for a reference for his new agent and I had no hesitation in giving that because I never had to ask him to pay his rent. I'm responsible for hundreds of thousands of pounds of other people's money and I have to be certain that I collect it as landlords rely on me to pay them on time in order to meet their own commitments. Mr Neish obviously didn't consider anyone but himself when he didn't pay his rent. He didn't consider that his landlord has his own commitments to his mortgage company, insurance and other outgoings and that in order to meet those commitments he will gave to find the funds elsewhere. Another important point to make here is that Mr Neish and all the other tenants of the property signed up for a second year. It doesn't make sense that if the property was in such a horrendous damp condition why would they sign up for a second year of misery and Pay the increase in rent for the second year. Back to the point of my being an angry little man, you only have to read the abusive and offensive wording of Mr Neish's review to to realise that Mr Neish obviously has some serious issues otherwise his review would have been more factual rather than personal. Clearly Mr Neish failed to mention his own transcresions with regards to his erratic rent payments as it would have made him look vindictive and dishonest. It's best to stick to facts when reviewing an agent and be absolutely certain that your account is not one sided

Apr 19, 2018I can confirm Chris Socrates is an angry little man. Hes one of the worst men I have ever dealt with. His business is close to a raquet. He abuses his staff as much as his tenants. He is a severely dissapointing human being. He has shouted in my face multiple times and refused to respond to requests to fix basic house damage and a rat infestation. We were forced to withhold rent. He didn't even notice for three weeks as his business is so disjointed. Awful awful man and awful awful estate agent.
By : W
Apr 20, 2018Said by a true angry little cowboy. Your border line criminal negligence is sickening. You are a disgrace to the estate agent world, which is really saying something.
By : Ruth
May 2, 2020I don't know Mr Neish so cannot comment on anything to do with the particular tenancy mentioned above. I can, however, confirm that Chris Socrates is a very small and very angry man. He's extremely short and presumably has some sort of complex as a result. He's a yappy yelling prat and is practically impossible to deal with. He's pretty well known by the local council due to decades of dodginess. I'd avoid him at all costs as either tenant or landlord.

This is a miserable little letting agent business with, from what I have seen, a sad list of run down, damp and infested properties on their books. Their approach to tenants is worse than their houses & flats - almost nonexistent communication, dangerous disregard of health and safety issues and embarrassing incompetence about the fundamentals of managing properties.
If you are a landlord - you should avoid this company. No doubt their rates are the lowest in London, if not the entire world, but as ever, you get what you pay for. In our case they let the house fall into dangerous disrepair and would only take action once environmental health issued them with a correction order. They also were unable to take the inventory correctly rendering the whole thing useless from the landlord's perspective.
If you are a tenant - as others have said, 'slum landlord' is the best definition of this company. You'll have a terrible time, nothing about the property will be fixed and you'll basically end up living in damp/rat filled bin for a year.
There are plenty of properties out there and plenty of more reputable letting agents - it's simply not worth letting these guys waste your time.
If you're not convinced yet - how about the fact that their only business email address is a Hotmail account. *slow clap*

They didn't even know until three weeks later despite numerous emails and calls.
It is unclear whether he is woefully inept or border line criminal. Probably a mixture on reflection.
Chris Socrates is a bully to his staff and his clients. He shouts because his words have no substance. The utter disregard he holds his tenants livelihoods in is quite staggering.
Please if you read this: do Not rent from this woeful excuse for a business. The staff are nice people at heart, they try their best but they are shouted down by little angry Chris.
I sincerely hope that other prospective tenants read this and do not make the same mistake I did.
Thanks for reading.

I cannot find a single positive thing to say about this supposed 'company'. The fact that their offices are falling to pieces speaks volumes about this estate agent. They really are the lowest of the low. Rats, mold, damp, the floor caving in, the garden wall collapsing and smashing into the back of the house etc etc etc. Trying to just speak to these people on the phone is the single most annoying and frustrating experience of my poor flatmates lives and mine. I'm not really sure what anyone in the office does. They will not help you. They either do not care, or have the required intelligence to fix any single problem. All they want is your money. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid. Avoid.

Londons people are the worst estate agents you could ever choose no house is worth having to deal with Londons People. They are the scum of all letting agents which you can see by these reviews. First of all I will address the issue which is Chris Chris Socrates the owner of Londons people. The First day we moved in we were given the wrong keys, we were left waiting for 4 hours with all our belongings in the garden. Chris turns up 4 hours late, no apology upon arrival he simply went to the back window and smashed it to get into the house, this is the kind of person I had to deal with for two years. Chris is a very angry LITTLE man who's only objective is to rip people off, especially students as well as first time tenants. This is a man who has verbally abused me on the phone more than once, simply I was asking him to fix issues with the property I was living at at the time. This is the man that left us in a unfit and frankly disgusting house where two tenants including myself were getting ill from the conditions we were left in and only fixed issues when he was threatened with action from environmental health. He is the kind of person to shout down the phone and then not turn up to the house and send one of his employees who are equally as uneducated and useless as Chris himself. I word of advice to anyone who is looking to rent No. 66 St Julians Farm Road, this house has a severe damp problem due to a leak in the roof, something which Londons people refuse to address, the bathroom is constantly mouldy as well as the rooms and they will come round and paint over this again and again, accusing tenants of not maintaining the property when infant its the letting agents who cut corners and bodge everything they possibly can to same some money. I have evidence, videos and images to back up this claim and will be more than happy to speak to anyone who is having the same issues time and time again with Londons people. Chris will try to take your deposit away at the end of the tenancy and add charges on top of anything he possibly can. Make sure you photograph the house when you move in if you want any of your deposit back, something which we happened to do and left Londons people and its colleagues looking very stupid when they infect had to return our money. AVOID these letting agents by all costs it is not worth your money or time find another property or letting agents.

This agency is not very efficent and not very helpful. If there is a problem with the property they would not respond immediately. It took ages and so many calls/emails to get an answer from them. There was once when there was an issue with the rent, it was their mistake for giving the wrong date for the standing order, but they called me and one of the guys was speaking very rudely with a raised voice over the phone asking why I haven't paid the rent. After he discovered that it was their fault, he lowered his voice and apologised, but damage has been done. I have lost respect and trust in them. The worst time was when we were moving out. We felt very disrespected as a tenant. Very very disrespected but that's another long story. Basically, I wouldn't recommend this agency to anyone.

Do not deal with these agents. They are cheap, nasty slum landlords who have no interest whatsoever in the wellbeing of the customer and are only concerned with leeching as much money as possible. Upon being asked to furnish a property they filled it with the cheapest stuff they could find: one bed was made of plywood, card and staples. They charged a cleaning fee and didn't clean the property. They're so incompetent that their contracts are rife with spelling and grammar mistakes as well as not being headed by the company's full name (which their own staff do not even know) meaning their contracts aren't even worth the paper they are printed on. Refused to fix multiple issues that were covered by fair wear and tear, extremely rude and difficult to deal with on all occaisions and tried to illegally withhold deposit because of nonexistent cleaning issues and then staff absences. Have no idea how they have stayed in business for this long as the key staff members are so incompetent and rude. For the love of all things holy stay away from these godless charlatans. Rent somewhere else

Long Version: Absolutely nothing. I wish I could give a negative amount of stars. These are bar none, the rudest, most incompetent money grabbing liars I have EVER had to deal with in my life. I have literally dealt with criminals with more manners and customer care than these people. Unbelievably rude throughout our year of dealing with them, failing to fix things (then trying to claim our deposit for it!), not being able to defend queries on their tenancy agreement, withholding our deposit for weeks because 'the right staff member isn't in'... The list goes on and on. I cannot express more how these people will make even the nicest flat into a nightmare that you just want to leave as soon as possible. Please (PLEASE!) do yourself a favor and have nothing to do with them.

I had a problem with shower system it broke down within 2 hours some attended the property. It was fixed within 24 hours. They have been reliable and helpful. I would recommend this agency in the future.

I echo all of the previous reviews left by customers. These letting agents are the most dishonest, rude, unreliable and money-grabbing agents I have ever worked with. They left me in tears on multiple occasions due to their withholding of money and any kind of maintenance services on our flat. They promised multiple things on looking round and signing the contract that were not upheld on move in. They told us that the rent was increasing by £20 a week per person two weeks before the end of our lease. They charged us £100 for cleaning at the start of our tenancy and left the flat in a disgusting state for us to move into. There was damp. The boiler worked only sporadically and we had to argue for any kind of maintenance. I want to put the message out there and WARN other potential tenants NOT to rent with these horrible human beings.
