My wife and I decided towards the end of 2011 that we planned to move. We decided we wanted to rent out our existing home and were advised to contact many of the lettings agents in Guildford. I think we met nearly all of them and were dissapointed to say the least. it was a Thursday afternoon when i was contacted by Andrea King the lettings manager of Mann and co guildford. After a brief conversation we agreed that Andrea would come over to the property the next day. Andrea promptly arrived and proceeded to give me a very comprehensive evaluation and explanation of what services Mann could provide. It was agreed that Andrea would instruct her team to start approaching potential tenants on the Saturday with a view to booking a " block " viewing the following tuesday. I was contacted on the monday by a member of andrea's team and the block viewing was arranged. On the Tuesday the block viewing went ahead and by 5pm that day Andrea called me and informed me that they had received 5 confimed offers of the asking price! By 7pm that evening my property had been sucessfully let. As i mentioned i met many lettings agents but Andrea and her team managed to contact me, view my property and let it all within 4 days of initially calling me. I think what has impressed me most about Andrea and her team is there honesty and attention to detail in everything they do. Everytime i have asked a question ( believe me there has been lots ) Andrea or any member of her team has answered my queries very quickly and always pleasantly. I am so impressed by the manner in which Andrea has sought and let my property that she is now rent collecting on another property i own. In summary if you wish to let your property and have complete peace of mind then call Andrea because from the very outset Andrea and her team will find excellent tenants and completely take care of everything from the tenancy agreement through to the inventory. I understand that letting your property is important but I am so pleased with the service that Andrea has provided us that i would gladly recommend her to anyone wishing to let their property.

Kind and polite... until they receive your payments. After that, forget about them. They won't be of any help, totally useless. They become very responsive again at check out, when they will find a way to deduct what they can from your deposit. Useless.... Read Full Review

The WORST company to deal with. The property management company Countrywide made us wait over 7 months for house repairs, then Gascoigne Pees agents made my husband, baby and I homeless over the new year period and then expected us to STILL pay rent with an offer of outdoor porta potty!!!! Not what ... Read Full Review

Ridiculous. No inventory carried out but still charged for it. Admin fees are a joke!

I felt I had to write this review even though my daughter left Uni 3 years ago because the treatment received by this branch and specifically Andrea was disgusting. I was asked to act as a guarantor for my daughter AND her housemates ! Andrea was rude to my daughter and her housemates, treating ... Read Full Review

We had been satisfied customers of Gascoigne-Pees for the last 7 years, but a recent outrageous lapse has diminished our satisfaction considerably. When the tenancy ended on our property last June, Gascoigne-Pees changed our electricity supplier to E.On (whom I had never heard of and therefore... Read Full Review

I have recently tried to take a Property from this agency. First of all, the agency fees was note mentioned to me, even I asked for the same over Phone. They told me that they would let me know later. Once I got the good faith document from them. It indicates that I need to pay 600 GBP as the... Read Full Review


What agent could do to change your mind?

First of all tell the truth upfront. Secondly provide some compensation, in case they fail to provide property on rent even after agreeing for the same.

Have you ever heard of the saying " Customer is the king". Well in the guildford (high street) branch of Mann countrywide, there is only one king and that is Andrea King, a woman who will give you no respect and will treat you like garbage. I wonder how she could tell me (the tenant) ... Read Full Review


What agent could do to change your mind?

The Agent must understand that the customer is a tenant. A branch manager like Andrea does not seem to have the business sense to understand who is and isn\'t a customer. A customer has the right to choose a service and the right to exit from the service when there is a need to. People like Andrea have left a indelible mark on my impression of letting agencies which needless to say remains negative. If she had displayed patience and politeness in her dealings with me, I would have been less stressed and my impression of them wold have been positive. But sadly this woman\'s behavior leaves me in bitter taste.
