I would advise everyone not to step foot near Martin & Co. They are by far the WORST agency we have ever been with. Lack of communication on numerous occasions, meaning we had to constantly chase, when items broke. Told they wanted access to the property as the landlord wanted to 're-mortgage' the house. Only to find a couple of days later they had taken images of all our belongings within the house & put it up for sale, without giving us a heads up. Upon leaving the property, we knew they would try to get more money out of us somehow. What a surprise it was to hear that the house 'wasn't up to their standards'. We went back in to the property to clean so we wouldn't be charged for anything. They then ever so kindly brought the fee down to £100 (which they said was quoted for by a cleaning company) for 'a new toilet seat & dusty skirting boards'. When asked to see the quote we got nothing but trouble, surely if someone wants to take your money you ask to see proof of a quote? We still haven't seen the quote & are still fighting this.

Dire. Left in a property for 2 months with a broken boiler and no hot water. Sent an engineer around whose fix was to put tape on the boiler pipe. After numerous calls and chasing I woke up to a carbon monoxide alarm going off, which I paid for and purchased due to the ongoing boiler safety... Read Full Review

Over our 6 month tenancy agreement en counted a series of problems which has disappointed and made us uncomfortable with the flat in which we were living. The following reasons made us feel this way: We were apparently sold a hall area by Martin &Co which after being told by the... Read Full Review

13 Nov 2013I am afraid that these comments are particularly unfair as the tenants were not informed that they could store a bicycle it what is clearly a "common area" in the block which is also a fire ...

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
