Allen & Harris Pontcanna branch, Cardiff - used as a managing agent for owners overseas. Do not use this company if you want to ensure a hassle free service. They did not always advertise the property promptly in between rentals (they had to be reminded to do this several times). They had to be chased by phone to ensure any maintenance was done (which wasn’t subsequently checked) They booked in the same maintenance jobs which had previously been done. The inventory system is not reliable, with lots of things missing. The staff turnover is so high, you don’t speak to the same person twice! Not recommended at all, very disappointing service and no apologies or compensation after complaints.

Absolutely terrible agents. They will lie to you about costs, do viewings without your consent and then mess you around with your deposit. One of the worst agents I have ever dealt with, especially Sophie *- completely incompetent. There are better agents in Cardiff....
