AVOID RENTING FROM GRANT PROPERTY AT ALL COSTS. I would have rated 0 stars if that was an option. Absolutely horrendous letting agent company that treat students like mugs. I say this for a number of reasons. 1) I rented a property from them and the roof in my bedroom leaked substantially. Their own handbook said urgent leaks would be seen to within 24-48 hours, they left the room stinking of damp and mould for over 3 weeks and suggested I sleep in the living room on a couch for these 3 weeks. I was given a measly £50 compensation from the landlord and a dehumidifier- bear in mind I was still paying £400 per month to have no access to a clean and safe bedroom to sleep in. See photos attached for the extent. Funnily enough they did a quick patch up job once I'd made my intention to leave the property clear. The property manager appeared incapable of making any decisions or communicating clearly. Likewise, in my opinion Andrew Hutton, Director of Property Management, was very condescending in any communication I had with him and appeared not to care one bit. 2) It took me four emails to finally get a response from the person responsible for returning the deposit to process it. They were quick enough to charge a holding fee (which they conveniently added to the deposit for the property as holding fees are illegal in Scotland), deposit and rent as quick as they could, but returning money was clearly not an urgent enough task for their team. If you are a student seeking to rent with Grant Property - do not bother. Worst experience with letting agents I have ever had and if you read other reviews they will tell you the same. I moved out my property in October and just had the deposit return processed later than the 30 working day timescale they communicated to me. Overall, Grant Property are chancers who think a law student does not understand the repairing standard or their tenancy rights - AVOID AT ALL COSTS! My new letting agent is absolutely fantastic in comparison to Grant Property (who I'd label as "cowboys").

22 Jan 2021So sorry to hear about your experience. I was considering to let one of their rooms. I did see a previous comment on Facebook about them, but it was from a few years back, so I thought maybe they would have cleaned up their act... I guess not if even in 2021 they are still poor towards students. Might I ask where you changed to as I am looking for a room to rent?

We have just moved to our apartment and the fridge broke. A technician representing Grant property said it would be replaced in 2 days, the oil had dried in the back, it was obviously not our fault.

They do get contractors out quickly to assess any faults, and reply to any issues in the flat quickly. However, often they... Read Full Review

Overpriced for extremely poor quality. I was paying a large amount for a room with peeling pain, holes in the flooring and broken furniture.
