Absolutely disgusting. Unprofessional. Abusive. Lazy. Will try anything they can get away with. Have had nothing but problems even before we moved in. If you like stress and chasing people to do their job then by all means this is the agent for you. But if your smart you will STAY AWAY! wish i had looked at this website and spoken to local people before i had moved in. Every one i have spoken to that knows this company has not said one good word about them. Do your research first people!


What agent could do to change your mind?

Hire someone else that can actually answer the phone, be in the office all day, reply to e-mails and manage repairs. Simple as that! Two people to run one estate agents is CLEARLY not enough.

The negative comments might seem harsh but they are all true. If I had the time and patience I would take this Scott guy to court! He will be the nicest person until he gets your money and after then good luck trying to get touch with him. The people in the office change on a weekly basis so you get to speak to a new person every week! This is not a business. This is a Con man running an estate agency. STAY AWAY!

Stay away from them, they are fraud and can't be trusted. We were renting out a commercial property through them and our very first question was if we can sell cars from the premises advertised. We were given assurances that they have spoken with the landlord and they have no objection to car... Read Full Review

Avoid at all costs. Scott in person comes across well and at first appearances seems trustworthy. However as a landlord we received absolutely no response to any queries asked by either phone, email or post and I was consistently lied too 'yes your tax invoices are in the post, i've sent them by...

Interesting to read these reviews, 5 star reviews from Landlords and 1 star reviews from Tenants, that just about sums it up. I could write a book on the problems we had with Allen & Crane as tenants, you wouldn't believe some of what we went though. In short, they are enthusiastic and... Read Full Review

To arrange a first viewing was difficult. Called 3 times no answer. Left a message, no response. Husband calls and makes first viewing instead. Met agent at viewing. All fine, however, Scott had no problem divulging the number of failed offers on the property and the amounts of those offers.... Read Full Review

I am trying to organise a viewing with them and after 2 days of tying I gave up. There is a house advertised on rightnove which I am interested to buy, and they can't be bothered to come back to me. The communication is nil. I feel sad for those who are trying to sell it as this agency just cannot ... Read Full Review


What agent could do to change your mind?

first the agent could have called me back as they promised and not to mention to all my messages that I left on the voice mail. They just don\'t seem reliable enough to do this kind of job. I feel frustrated for even trying. That is a waste of my time!

What agent could do to change your mind?

imcompetent, unproffesional, ignorant, lazy, rude and unhelpful. They could do their job at the end of the day. But no. They ignore you then make you out to be the one in the wrong cause you pay the most expensive rent in the area and cant even have a bath without Mr mould joining in.
