Bill Burns - Owner This man is a crook - he owes me 5 months rent which he has collected from my tenants but which mysterious get lost in the banking system. I have recieved 4 post dated cheques to clear the arrears and guess what....................the first cheque has bounced. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
It is not rocket science to collect rent, deduct a %age and pass on the remainder promptlly to a landlord! I am considering calling police as he has stolen my money!

13 Mar 2012Rather than each disaffected Landlord trying his own little bit of self-help – we suggest a single competent solicitor is appointed on a joint basis – when the costs can be shared and the effectiveness of recovery of these debts will be so much greater. As a company who have gained a reputation, since being established in 1999, of providing professional, friendly service, we (DirectLettings.co.uk) can assure Landlords and Tenants who have been badly let down by this company that, whilst unfortunate, this type of situation thankfully does not happen often, and should certainly not be thought of as “the normâ€. We believe that we speak on behalf of all trustworthy Lettings Agents in Consett and the surrounding areas, in expressing to those that have been affected by the actions of a minority element that we will continue to offer assistance where required in order to restore confidence in the Lettings Agency profession. Please contact us if you would like to discuss your situation on 0845 680 5550 or email us – enquiries@directlettings.co.uk

[[EDIT ORIGINAL START]] Hi I'd be interested as well if anyone has an address for Mr Burn. We are begining small claims proceedings against him, also it appears that Derwentside Estates was not a Ltd company. If he was trading as a 'sole trader' then we believe he is personally liable for any ... Read Full Review
