Clyde Letting have been by far the worst company I have had the displeasure to associate with .
They are unprofessional and due to their inability to sort out a severe damp problem within the property we rent we are now due to go to court.They do not respond to calls, they are rude and condescending . This company advised us to withhold rent to make the landlord fix the property and the landlord issued us with an eviction order . This is fair enough and we will go to court , however what is the management fee that Clyde have been syphoning for?I have asked them to give us the schedules for other properties within the area and they don't care . Seriously I have not the energy to explain just how much they have p***ed around with us .Beware YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED !!!!
What agent could do to change your mind?
They are not interested . Once they have you locked into the lease they could not give a monkey's !!

Comment on agent fees
They force tenants to pay a referencing fee, which is illegal in Scotland. They get around this by claiming it is really the landlord who is asking you to pay, and by getting tenants to pay directly to a company called MARAS (a shady subsidiary of Towergate Insurance, who should know better).

What agent could do to change your mind?
Service could be improved by a single point of contact and informing (simply via email) when that contact changes. Getting 3 quotes for all repairs to allow a price comparison to be made rather than simply instructing repairs and only informing what the cost will be after the tradesmen have completed. Never before have I had to pay for a tradesmen to "diagnose" a problem, in my personal experience this should be free.

What agent could do to change your mind?
Concern there appeared to be lack of transparency regarding ‚£34,585 factor fee for essential structural work. We were told they don't need to mention this as solicitor when doing the conveyancing should ring factor and find out, then tell perspective buyer. When an offer was put in for second time ‚£15K above asking price, told seller had paid ‚£162K and was looking for that. Third offer of ‚£162,600 and ‚£164,100 ( later with furniture) told no, seller wants ‚£170K which is on home report. NB home report does not have known factor works identified. Factors have two estimates and one letter already sent out to people in block but no response. All other flats have tenants, only flat being sold has owner. Concern is lack of openness and that a buyer could be stung if unaware of fee for structural work and no one else in block resPonding to requests for work to go ahead. Asked by Lisa if I knew Scottish system as I should look at home report regarding price. Why then ask ‚£25K less and not make clear current outstanding essential repairs with large cost attached? Felt disappointed as though we could have had a much better experience regardless of outcome.

Train their staff to not be rude and obnoxious. Give their staff training on the referencing process. Teach everyone about common telephone courtesy and face-to-face customer communications. Or much easier.... Find new office staff for their byres road branch Judy Green is one of the rudest and most unpleasant women I have ever come across.
