I rented my property out and had nothing but consistently bad service! Emails were never acknowledged or answered. When tenants didn't pay the rent Davis and sons didn't even notice this and took weeks to sort this out! Countless times keys went missing when changing occupancy, and with no written inventory for the first set of tenants, several items from the house disappeared. I spent so much of my time trying to chase them regarding so many different issues it's pathetic! They are paid to do a service and have failed miserably. Stay well away, do not let them deal with your house if you are planning to rent it out!

I Travelled 150 miles for an appointment to view a property with this company - only to be told on arrival that the vendor had just accepted an offer from another party. In my opinion a professional agent would have told their client that he or ...

I am the neighbor of this tenant and has been throughout her whole tenancy and all i can say is that this woman was a living nightmare. constant people back and forth, overgrown gardens. i met the owner when he renovated it and in all fairness the guy done a great job. The tenant actually had a warrant to get her out after living there and not paying rent for a substantial time. This is just revenge because you had to leave. I have had police and th inland revenue knock my door for you and now ...

The first thing you'll notice about this agency is the high agency fee, higher than anyone else in the area. You might be thinking it's worth paying for a good service, but I wouldn't go with this agency if it were free. I first went ...
