I’ve been living in this house for a while and by the time my second child was born, the health visitor noticed a mould and I did also, reported it and after a while a company they work with (LPC) came by. At first they assumed it was a leakage, but claimed to have checked and it just needed paint. A year after the same problem only worse. Clothes being damaged that can’t be replaced, items full of mould and a now sick son. Richard Reid when I expressed how mentally hard it was and unhealthy to be in my house, the damage it costs, screamed at me on the phone and told me to ‘Shut up’ .. He’s the agent. I’ve been sick, my son uses an inhaler, whole family is having a hard time due to the mould and their way of handling it. It has been a constant case of gaslighting, intimidation and blame. I’m a single mother with two kids, his action towards me were a Trigger. Also as attached the mould keeps coming back, knowing the medical damage it had brought. The house is freezing, insulation is horrible. We get so cold our hands hurt and because the heat doesn’t hold (bad insulation) it costs me more in topping up my electricity, with my finances. They kept sending multiple maintenance men to come and inspect the damage, had us in a b&b for 3 weeks and 4/5 months to agree to what they would pay to fix, knowing the damage and then try to blame me. Environmental health got involved and many others are. They only care about money, no form of humanity from their ‘landlords’ nobody knows. When they want something from you, you will get emails immediately. The third time now the company that said there wasn’t a leakage is coming back to ‘fix’ it.. I have also been cleaning the building for 6 months, get rid of a horn of flies that produced maggots, finding for myself that there was a leakage (doing their job for them). It’s been horrible. I do have arrears and I’m being helped to pay back, however that was after the situation that has been going on since 2019. This is the state of my house as I type. I would not recommend this agency! Horrible

    I found Berns & Co to be very honest and upfront during my interaction with them. They offered a place near King's Cross at a very reasonable rate, which initially made me a little suspicious. I had contacted other agencies earlier through Zoopla, but they never seemed to have the deals they ... Read Full Review


    Comments on Agent Fees

    Fee is slightly higher than the average quote (£185 for £800/mo flat), but because of the high level of integrity and the fairness of the rental price, I don\'t mind at all.
