Awful. One of the worst experiences of a company I've ever had. Honestly, if you're reading this and thinking about renting a house or flat from them - don't. You really will regret it. For us, it was a negative experience from beginning to end, and I felt a weight off my shoulders when our contract finally ended. On top of that, such a dodgy, unethical company - conflict of interest between the letting agent which is owned by the same man who owns the majority of the properties on their books, and no transparency whatsoever. It's common knowledge in Oxford that this really is a company to avoid - I just wish I'd listened to this advice before signing the contract.

Liza showed us round a couple of properties of interest to us and the properties were nice and tidy and the locations were good for easy access to Oxford Brooke’s University. Liza was very professional and knowledgable and we felt in safe hands with her as she explained everything ... Read Full Review

I never write reviews but I think this can help many people. Especially students, which in most cases are treated with much insignificance. NOPS it's a complete scam. We had many problems with the house in September. The house did not cover the furnished criteria until the end of October. ... Read Full Review

I can't say we weren't warned against NOPS. Six months ago some friends and I were (desperately) searching for a new house. In our search for new housemates, we met a wise old Oxford grad student, who told us: there is one rule of renting in Oxford: you don't *ever* rent with ... Read Full Review

My year living in a property from NOPS was horrific and stays with me years on. Shocking. Times without a stair case. Mouldy. Electric shocks from shower. Flooding. Leaks… the list goes on. The impact was visible on everyone’s health of living in such squalor and mould. Always ... Read Full Review

their treatment of tenants is appalling. They lie to them, humiliate them, and seemingly try to prevent them from securing basic housing. This appalling treatment of tenants is often rooted in prejudice against tenants on universal credit and manifests as unlawful ... Read Full Review

Ridiculously damp house, made most of the tenants ill. Clothes wouldn't dry when hung up and were left with a stale smell on them. The old dehumidifier present in my bedroom should've been a sign of things to come, as well as the broken shelves we had to glue together ourselves on ... Read Full Review

I've been through many many estate agents in my lifetime. Of all of them, these are by far the worst. I thought the experience was below average already until they tried to charge me for my deposit. Things like £60 to change a light bulb, £300 for a "light ... Read Full Review

The worst letting agent/ property manager ever. We moved into a student house in Oxford in early October 2020 and since then we have been dealing with a half functioning house. Not only was furniture missing or broken when we moved in, NOPS have been unreasonable with repairs. Our boiler has been ... Read Full Review

The worst people I have ever dealt with in my life. Both, NOPS, and Rentguru are low-life scums. They don't give a shit about anything. They never gave my deposit back even though I left the room better than how I found it when I moved in. Pay a little extra money and stay somewhere ... Read Full Review

First off I'd like to point out that the majority of this review will be directed at the rent guru who work in partnership with NOPS who I found to be worse than NOPS themselves, hence only 2 stars. What limited communication I did have with NOPS was fairly helpful albeit much delayed. ... Read Full Review

Yet another negative review for NOPS. I should have read the reviews before renting from them, but given the time of year -sep- there were very few agency options left on the market (The real reviews ). When I moved to the flat, it had a strong smell of paint, and nothing worked, the fridge ... Read Full Review

This is not a reputable company at all , in my opinion. Although the house that was rented for my son plus 3 other students was OK, it was not professionally cleaned when they arrived yet they wanted to charge for professional cleaners once the lease was up. When the students left it was much ... Read Full Review

AWFUL! I have put a number of complaints in about the property I am renting which is far to small and way over priced! For them to put off ever coming to fix the issues I have raised! I rarely get 24 hours notice of when some one is coming out to the property! At the inspections they have taken ... Read Full Review

After a year of renting with NOPS, there are too many individual instances of frustration for me to fit into this Google Review. The gist is: NOPS exploits the oligopolized structure and lack of accomodation on the Oxford Student letting market by renting out low-quality properties for insane ... Read Full Review

These people enjoy the exploitation of ill-informed student tenants, which turns out to be their shiny business model in an oligopoly. They will rinse and charge you extremely disproportionate fees where they can, particularly on insignificant and nuanced issues allowing them to keep students in ... Read Full Review

Where to begin. I rented from these con artists for three years, and only stayed with them because I was too poor to afford the fees to put down on another place and was able to transfer my deposit from one flat to another. They constantly lied to me and my flat mates about improvements to the ... Read Full Review

We used NOPs to rent a property in Jericho last year. They were generally unhelpful, disorganised and unprofessional. When we complained about various maintenance issues, they often would ignore our emails or when they did respond it would take weeks, even months, to get the problem looked at. The ...
