I have never dealt with more unhelpful and unprofessional people then these so called agents. My daughter is a student at Herts University. She & 4 others recently rented a student property through MM. I went with my daughter yesterday and the other 4 tenants (with parents) to sign up and take possession of the property. We arrived at midday as requested although one of the students was late due to traffic. We entered the offices and the students were asked to sit in front of Kerry. The parents were asked to sit in seats further away. I replied that I was happy standing as I wanted to know what was being told to my daughter. Kerry abruptly told me that she did not want me standing and hovering over her. Another lady then shouted that all the parents should leave and get a coffee. At this point I explained that as a parent I would be staying and seeing what my daughter was signing. The lady then told Kerry that the students were not children and if any more parents came in they would have to leave. The students were asked to review the documents and sign and initial. When my daughter at one point asked Kerry if all the students needed to sign a certain page, she was told

Was looking for a long time for a property to rent and viewed many. Made offers on properties, which always came back as 'landlord says no', only to find that a week later, the rent is reduced to what I offered!! This happened on 3 different properties and it does make me wonder ... Read Full Review
Horrendous fees, unjustifiable.

Good afternoon :) Hatfield is an area where a lot of students (from the University of Hertfordshire) rent properties to live in during university term times, therefore many are embarking on the property ladder for the first time and are, therefore, inexperienced. This being said, Mather Marshall ... Read Full Review
1. Be honest and upfront with students about the fees they have to pay 2. Do not be patronising and unfriendly. It does not hurt to have manners and decorum, eg, something simple like POLITELY asking \"Sorry, I did not get your name?\" Or \"Sorry, who is this I am speaking to?\" Instead of \"...and who are you?\" You can be assertive if you have to be, but being assertive does not mean you have to be rude and unpleasant. 3. Be helpful and patient to students who are renting for the first time. Believe it or not, students talk about their experiences with letting agents and I will campaign with the University to let students become aware of their rights and to know what is and what is not acceptable from letting agents.

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.
