Quite possibly the worst student housing company you could use. They repeatedly took advantage of the fact we were students - through increasing our rent without our knowledge months after signing the contract, charged us on our returns deposit for no reason what so ever, awful customer service from the employees in office, refused to deal with mould that was in my housemates room and blamed her for it despite her doing nothing different within her room to the rest of us, and were rude when handling maintenance issues that were completely out of our control. This company will do anything to get money out of you, e.g. requesting the whole house to be repainted and cleaned when it was a complete mess when we first arrived. Would avoid using this company if you don’t want to be a victim of daylight robbery lol.

I rented a house from MRH for 10 years. They were brilliant, if anything broke they replace it, redecorated numerous times and were quick to act when anything needed sorting. Really nice, friendly people and I have yet to find better landlords. They also gave the deposit back without any hassle and ... Read Full Review


Comments on Agent Fees

I don't know now, it was a long tenancy and things will have changed. But they have always been very reasonable. We had an old recliner that was not fireproofed so we couldn't move it in, they gave us a new 3 piece suite as a replacement and all the chairs / couches reclined, which was nice of them.

I feel like you get a lot more than what you're paying for especially with how professional the agency deals with your inquiries (on top of what comes with the house itself).

Way too high. The moving in administration fee is too much and the 'cleaning charge' when moving out is ridiculous.
