I have had a terrible experience with this estate agent. Imran let and managed my property. Here are some of the problems I've had to deal with: 1- One of the 2 tenants had left and Imran only told me about it 2 months later. The 2nd tenant had sub let 2 bedrooms in the house for months! 2- The tenants had installed locks on bedroom doors, extra decking in the garden and made other changes without permission. I received no compensation for any of these damages, Imran advised it wasn't a big deal! 3- After the tenant left , I had to take care of all the problems regarding the unpaid bills etc myself by calling,emailing the power company... over and over again even though Imran had said he would handle it. 4- My emails to Imran are constantly ignored and I receive no replies for most of them. This is not only unprofessional but rude as well. 5- It's been more than 2 months since the tenant left and I still haven't got back the money I paid to have the locks changed... I have repeatedly asked Imran to follow up with the tenant to see why he hasn't responded to this deduction from the deposit but nothing has happened so far. The past 3 months have been a nightmare for me, having to deal with all the above and more. I will be complaining to the Ombudsman but I just wanted to warn others to be careful. I think it's worth paying more for a reputable agency to let and manage your property, you will save money in the end and can avoid the mental distress. I wrote this review in the hope of saving others from going through the same terrible experience. Good luck
I don\'t think they care, I gave them many chances to sort out the problems but nothing was done.

20 Oct 2014Dear Mr. Farzad, I would like to apologise for the stress you have been through, however its the tenants that have unfortunetly caused all this stress. All the issues you listed please see below the response to it: 1- One of the 2 tenants had left and Imran only told me about it 2 months later. The 2nd tenant had sub let 2 bedrooms in the house for months! ANSWER: WE WE'RE NOT ABLE TO INFORM YOU AS WE OURSELF WERE NOT AWARE OF IT AS SOON AS WE FOUND OUT WE INFORMED YOU. 2- The tenants had installed locks on bedroom doors, extra decking in the garden and made other changes without permission. I received no compensation for any of these damages, Imran advised it wasn't a big deal! ANSWER: UNFORTUNATELY WE WERE NEITHER AWARE THAT THEY INSTALLED NEW LOCKS AND MADE DECKING IN GARDEN, THESE ARE NOT DAMAGES. HOWEVER WE HAVE RAISED THE DISPUTE FOR THIS AND ITS UP TO DPS TO DECIDE. 3- After the tenant left , I had to take care of all the problems regarding the unpaid bills etc myself by calling,emailing the power company... over and over again even though Imran had said he would handle it. ANSWER: WE HAVE INFORMED THE TENANTS, BUT WE CANNOT FORCE SOMEONE TO PAY THE BILLS, ITS THE PROVIDERS DUTY TO CHASE THEM FOR THE UNPAID BILLS AND TAKE LEGAL ACTION IF NECESSARY. 4- My emails to Imran are constantly ignored and I receive no replies for most of them. This is not only unprofessional but rude as well. ANSWER: YOUR EMAIL HAD BEEN RESPONDED ON THE FIRST INSTANCE HOWEVER YOU EMAILS WERE REPEATED WITH SAME QUERIES WHICH WE ALREADY REPLIED YOU WITH. 5- It's been more than 2 months since the tenant left and I still haven't got back the money I paid to have the locks changed... I have repeatedly asked Imran to follow up with the tenant to see why he hasn't responded to this deduction from the deposit but nothing has happened so far. ANSWER: THE MONEY IS HELD BY THE DPS AND THE TENANTS ARE NOT HAPPY THAT YOU ARE CHARGING THEM FOR THE LOCK CHANGE WHICH THE TENANT WHO IS A BUILDER COULD CHANGE IT HIMSELF . THE DISPUTE AS PER YOUR REQUEST HAS BEEN RAISED IN DPS AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO ACCELERATE THIS PROCESS. We understand that you have been stressed but the money is held by DPS and until both the parties are satisfied the matter will not be solved this will unfortunately go to tribunal and will be a long process. The only thing to do is either to come to a mutual agreement between yourself and the tenant or wait patiently .

Worst renting agency have used. Never go check the property provided the tennants are paying. Handing over the house back. Very difficult and had to end up to court. The tennants were throwing used pamper through the window and this was affecting the neighbours with smell and also the appearance. ... Read Full Review

The agent fee is reasonable. However the letting agent is flexible and I can negotiate it down if I have any concerns.
