The property was let to students who arrived to black mouldy mattresses, appalling condition of the place. It HAD NOT been properly cleaned. Drawer broken, curtain rails hanging off the wall, fridge broken. I have so many photos to prove this. Fire door broken, hob doesn't light. All emails that have been sent haven't been replied to. No one will take responsibility. The property hasn't even been gas certified which is a legal requirement. Mattresses have been replaced, all over issues are outstanding. I see the property is now being advertised for next year without a valid gas certification. Avoid

    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.
