My son and his university friends rented a house in Colchester from them which was appalling,actually it was quite dangerous on first inspection a year ago , it really wasnt fit for purpose .They accepted this at the time and the said the owner lived in Hong Kong and wouldnt spend money updating it .A year on and when the deposit was due to be returned ,they firstly lied and said it was paid the previous week ,when i chased for him my son finally got this email from a rather unpleasant man called Jeff which i have enclosed below ,which includes their costs in allegedly getting it back to its previous pig sty state ,its sadly pathetic and over inflated.Beware also they charge £60 to supply a reference to any new landlord ,again a rip off . My son is happily re settled in a nice little flat in town now but dealing with this company has left a bad taste in his and my mouth and i would advise Parents not to deal with them ,even if the options maybe some what limited in colchester
