If I could leave this as 0 stars I would! Hands down the worst Agents you could ever imagine to have to deal with! Prior to moving into the property, which was a development of new build flats in Sale, they were disorganised, didn't respond to emails or phone calls, continuously lied to us and then put the price of rent up by £100 a week before we were due to move in! Upon moving out, they have now tried to keep a large amount of our deposit for items which should be classed as general wear and tear or for problems which simply don't exist!

O'Connor Bowden has been handling our buy to let flat in Manchester from 2005. In difficult markets, they have found us tenants very quickly. In strong markets, they have not only found us tenants quickly, but also negotiated rent increases. They are very conscientious as well with repairs,... Read Full Review

I rarely leave reviews or comments and I don't know about their letting service but definitely avoid buying property from them or through them. Broken promises, none responsive, working with shady developers, don't know how they are ever allowed to sell properties. Legal action will... Read Full Review

Unfortunately I have to echo the previous reviewer who warned "o be avoided!...". I had a water leakage and electrical damage from the flat above and despite constant promises from O'Connor Bowden no action was taken. Emails were ignored, excuses were made over the phone and after... Read Full Review

Not had the best experience with O'Connor Bowden from the start. On a personal level they appear helpful however fundamentally they cannot seem to do their job in managing let properties. Several times we've had to chase outstanding issues whether it be maintenance, contracts or renewing the lease. ... Read Full Review

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.
