Awful experience, the agent didn't pick up our calls or emails, we put an offer on a house when there was no other interest. David Nelson was not picking up our calls or calling us back. He managed to get another customer (which per our understanding has seen the house a few months ago but didn't express interest or put in an official offer) to bid against us hours before our offer expired, then went on holiday. He knew what our offer was because we verbally advised as well. Just awful experience, do not use this company.

I would strongly advise caution when dealing with this estate agency. My experience was deeply disappointing and marked by a clear lack of integrity and professionalism. After expressing interest in possibly purchasing the property I was renting, the agency responded by serving me notice to vacate ... Read Full Review

25 Oct 2025I had the exact same issues. Very frustrating when you leave a property in better condition yet they go out their way to keep your deposit. Would never go near them...

The attitude from staff is disgusting and quite frankly ridiculous. I had a viewing booked for a flat and was told it was cancelled and when I asked why I was told "if you're going to have an attitude then I'm just going to put the phone down." Taylor is a bully and ... Read Full Review

Hard to rate an agent that isnt interested in doing viewings at all, or even answering the phone. Recently tried to view 5 seperate properties. Got a single response "we arent doing viewings, take it from the photos or leave it". Covid is not an excuse, as other agents are willing and ... Read Full Review

17 Nov 2020Ian, I am sorry that your enquiry with Castlebrae did not to your expectations. At this time we are still carrying out viewings, but only on vacant properties. This might mean that your details are...

Terrible experience with this company dealing with Alistair McMurdo - the guy had no time for us when showing us around a home viewing we where viewing, we applied for a property we could afford quite easily, after supplying all required documentation, paying our holding deposit right away and ...

21 Oct 2013Cusson, I am somewhat surprised at the comments above. Firstly we do not lie! The truth is, there was so much more to this application, for a property at £2200 pm, and have outlined the...
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.
No procedure set.
