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.

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....

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 ...

To all the tenants who, like me, have been abused and/or robbed by Londons People Property Services
Do not let them get away with it and submit a formal complaint to The Property Ombudsman (TPO) or the Tenancy Deposit Scheme (TDS).

I endorse this review. Apparently they are not breaking any laws to turf people out after a short time, retain all fees, and immediately advertise the property at a greatly increased rent. I shall be putting this in front of the Property ombudsman. Rules or no rules this is immoral - probably amoral in fact as this weasely little agent appears to have none. ...

This comment is simply false. London People's Property are by far the worst estate agent I have ever dealt with. Chris Socrates is rude, dismissive, inept, greedy and completely incompetent. I have never had a worse experience renting a property. the house my flatmates and I rented was rat infested, covered in mold in damp, falling apart at the seems and to add insult to injury the tree fell down in the back garden and smashed into the side of the house (we had notified them of the dangerous wal ...

In 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 m ...
