Worst letting agency in the UK. Please, first of all, take a look at the attached pictures; these were the conditions my partner and I were living in. They kept saying they would fix this issue but they never did and it was progressively getting worse since the damage was coming from a leak inside the wall (clearly not our fault). The issue wasn't initially visible because they painted over the wall and they did this again for the next tenants after we moved out (we noticed walking by the house from outside the window). Apart from this major issue, any other issue was also never resolved because of the UNBELIEVABLE INCOMPETENCE OF THE PEOPLE WORKING THERE, who also charged us randomly over £200 for some lights flickering even though they were already in those conditions when we moved in. We were also paying the non-deposit scheme, meaning that the extra money we were paying every month should have been used for this kind of stuff but no, this agency loves scamming and charging people with no valid reason without doing any work. AVOID THIS LETTING AGENCY!

    Brand Vaughan is an awful letting agency. I've shared your experience on X. I hope you don't mind. @ExploitedTenant #BrandVaughan #ExploitedTenantsUk Best Regards

    Hands down the worst experience I've ever had with a letting agency. Myself and 2 housemates a house from them, through their students letting and over the course of our 2 year tenancy with them, it was almost a continuous battle with them to deal with a leak in my newborn's bedroom. It was... Read Full Review

    The service I receive from this company is a joke. I am a landlord and ended up using Brand Vaughan as my previous company was acquired, not through any choice I made. They have recently formed some sort of alliance with a company called Michael Jones and seemed to have screwed up a reasonable... Read Full Review

    Im a student, and i wanted to warn everyone about this letting agency. They are secretive and unhelpful, as well as rude and condescending. When trying to make sure they didn’t sell our house for next year to someone else, I called the company to ask for some help and clarify what we... Read Full Review

    I have been with this agency for about 3 years, and as far as there are no problem with the property and you pay your rent, they only contact you for renewals and not much else. I reported a leak 2 years ago, after all this time they haven't done anything, not even pretending. Now is time to... Read Full Review

    I’d say the service provided by Brand Vaughan has been appalling, but in fact it has been non-existant. The property was not ready for the move-in date, falsely advertised, and despite our constant chasing, they have done almost nothing for an entire month, all while happily taking a...

    Terrible agent. Slow communication and short notices of visits (barely legal). If something was broken (such as the heating) it would take more than a week to get it solved. At the end of the tenancy unreasonable charges were made against us. We disputed the charges through reposit and almost 50%... Read Full Review
