TLDR; A petty, money grabbing company with zero communication skills and not a stuff given about their tenants wellbeing so long as the rent gets paid. Anyone renting through this company would be wise to read the small print, keep proof of everything and make full use of the DPS. Of all of the landlords and agents I have rented off of Leef have given me by far the worst experience. I usually prefer to let bygones be bygone as renting can be a headache regardless but I feel this company bears writing about. It took almost a month for the referencing to be completed, I'm not sure as to the internal workings at Leef's end but regardless communication was atrocious from the offset. They also managed to screw up the inventory check meaning it had to be done three weeks after I moved in which entailed the flat being photographed with my belongings already in there. The flat itself, although a converted office building, is typical new build material (think paper mache like walls) and poorly maintained. There is not enough room for the rubbish bins outside to the point it made local news, the street door was broken and therefore not secure and it took over a year for the lift to be repaired. I had to wait six weeks for the poor quality and known to be faulty radiators to be replaced as the weather was getting cold. I feel this is all totally unacceptable given the the increase in rent that happened upon the renewal of my tenancy after a year. I had to cut my tenancy short due to not being able to afford the flat due to my ill health which in hindsight was a blessing. Leef are so utterly petty and profit obsessed that they charged me for the 4 days rent and council tax between me leaving and the new tenant moving in. They also charged me £400 (non-refundable because remeber they are petty and profit obcessed even though I was very ill) to readvertise the flat but didn't start readvertising it until after a month of the two months notice that I gave them and even then that was only because I had to tell them to do it to which they simply blamed the letting agent although I had proof to the contrary. It has just taken me 6 months to get my deposit back and I cannot tell you how thankful I am for the DPS. Even though I communicated to Leef that I had a professional end of tenancy clean with all the bells and whistles they still tried to sting me £200 for a clean when it costs absolutely no more than £150 in the area I'm in, there's several London Boroughs where it doesn't even cost that much for an end of tenancy clean for a one bedroom flat. Ultimately, what I found was that Leef have no respect for the fact that what may be their rental property is in fact the tenant's home and they also have no respect for the humanity of other people and what is sometimes beyond our circumstances. I always thought other people were exaggerating until I rented through this company and I have to say that it made me very careful about where I go next. I would highly advise a situation where you deal direct with the landlord as opposed to thier agent like I did because all companies like Leef do is treat you like a dirty poor person who has to rent because you can't afford buy. What I find most ironic is that Leef is most likely staffed at the front line by people of about my kind of age (early 30s who very likely rent), I wonder how they would feel if the above happened to them?
