Thank you Montrose for a stress free 3-year tenancy at our flat in Didsbury! Montrose were reliable, helpful and trustworthy at all times, we usually dealt with Ollie who went above and beyond whenever we needed to get in touch - the other employees were really helpful too. Really appreciated the quick turnaround whenever we needed any repairs and it was always easy to get in touch. I also appreciated that Montrose treated their tenants like customers too - not just the landlords! It was a positive two way street and if I am a landlord in the future I won't hesitate to give Montrose my business.

Absolutely couldn't do this review justice with words. I can't dissuade people from using Montrose enough. Terrible service. Had no heating for the coldest months, and couldn't even get a reply from emails. The whole year they treated us as second class customers because we ...

Thats the fastest reply you’ve ever done. I wouldnt call not hoovering floors, cobwebs, grime on the kitchen surfaces and unwashed floors ‘reasonable’. The rest of the heating wasn't adequate, as the repair man explained- that one radiator prevented the flow to the others meaning the circulation wasn't adequate for the whole house. The other tenants rent arrears shouldnt have affected the other two fully paying tenants duty of care - the one who had rent problems moved out immediately due ...

Agent’s fees are ridiculous, especially the ones required to renew the contract - why do you need to pay agent’s fees to renew a contract if you just need to re-sign a piece of paper?

To be more precise, I've not been told about the windows issue when I signed the first agreement, I've actually being told that my current rent was priced at market rates. Furthermore, I've been bound to re-sign a 12 months contract just after 4 months of actually being in the property: at that time I was still not fully aware of the inconveniences caused by the windows as I was travelling for work and not inside my property for a consistent length of time. In December 2017 I've actually felt I ...

Thanks for your reply. We only charge a fee when putting someone forward for referencing. Very rarely does a landlord then withdraw their offer and on occasions such as this, we do refund the tenant's fee. Last year, I recall only two occasions when this needed to happen. At present, I do not know your name or the property you applied to rent. I am very happy to help resolve this matter. Please do email me ([email protected]) with more information, including your name or give m ...

Agency fees were very good, rent is competitive for the area. Deposit was maybe a little higher then I have previously experience but at the end of the day if you look after the property and leave it as you found it then you will get it all back.
