Unprofessional, rude, illegal, deceptive, and incompetent. If you are considering renting PLEASE PLEASE save yourselves the hassle, grief, humiliation, frustration, and criminal living conditions. Even with council intervention they persist in their unacceptable business practices. PLEASE consider absolutely ANY other estate agents.

Managed our rental property for 5+ years, handled everything to do with the tenant including eviction towards the end. The sales team took over and sold within 3 weeks. Great across the board, thanks....

It does correlate if you were being honest!

Thank you for your comments. I would like to address the comment regarding a rent increase. I did say to you that having reviewed your account regarding the heating situation, i noted that you are due a rent increase which was discussed before covid already and therefore by no means was this a threat but confirmation of a previous conversation. With regards the heating you were not without hot water as you had a functioning immersion heater ( confirmed by our independent contractor ) throug ...

I am sorry to hear you were unhappy the way you have been dealt with. Every property we rent out we insure the rent for our clients, and the insurance company have very specific criteria on income. If you put down a holding deposit, and then we carry out the credit check and you do not meet the income criteria you will lose your deposit. Her intention was not to be patronising but to avoid you losing money, by informing you that based on your income you would need to look for something cheap ...

I am sorry to hear of your issues regarding what can only be described as a very difficulty period we have all gone through. Property inspections were halted during COVID to avoid spreading this dreadful disease and have only recommenced recently ( and in some cases tenants still prefer us not to enter unless 100% necessary ) With regards to the refund of your deposit, our role is represent the Landlord who instructs us to act on their behalf, and we base any deductions on the comparison of ...
