Avoid at all costs. The least professional and diligent agents that I have ever had the misfortune of dealing with. Where to start... There were numerous issues that arose during our tenancy, none of which were dealt with in an expedient or professional manner. We raised an issue with the dishwasher's failure to actually clean any of the dishes and we were met with 'try to clean it yourself with special cleaning products'. We, of course, did not have any such 'special dishwasher cleaning products' that Sarah from Heaton Property suggested we used. Since when was the Tenant required to purchase expensive products in order for such a basic device to simply work? There was a small hole in one of the walls which had clearly previously been plastered over. We raised this in April and this still wasn't dealt with by Heaton Property by the end of our tenancy in October. This was after multiple chasers and only one response which asked for a photograph of the hole which they claimed they would pass on to a 3rd party who would deal with the issue. As any tenant would be acutely aware of, if an issue such as this arose during their tenancy they would be fearful that this could be an issue which would result in a deduction from their deposit. Due to Heaton Property's failure to deal with this issue, I was forced to hire someone to survey the wall, which confirmed my suspicion that the hole was old damage that had previously been plastered over, as well as revealing several other structural issues with the wall/skirting boards. Finally, when our tenancy end date was closing in, we asked Heaton Property for a recommended cleaning service in order to ensure that there would be no deductions for cleaning fees. Heaton recommended Tyne Clean and the end of tenancy clean was completed. 13 days after our tenancy ended, Heaton eventually came back to us and proposed a total deduction of 120 pounds, 100 of which were cleaning fees. They did not provide any invoices, photographic evidence or a full deposit report, because, and I quote, 'due to the small deductions we did not believe it was necessary to complete a full report. How remarkably unprofessional. After I contested the cleaning fees on account of us using the service they recommended, they flat denied that they recommended Tyne Clean. Despite replying with evidence that Heaton Property did in fact recommend Tyne Clean, they still denied this to be the case. Disgraceful customer service and utter contempt displayed towards their tenants. Eventually, and upon my repeated requests, Heaton provided invoices and photographs for the deductions made, over TWO weeks after the end of our tenancy. After I reluctantly accepted their deductions and confirmed that I was content for the deposit to be transferred to my flatmate and 'lead tenant', my flatmate followed up 5 days later to be met with the claim that I was still disputing the deposit amount, despite expressly accepting it via email 3 days previous. Funny enough I was removed from CC when they replied to my flatmate. After I emailed back asking why this was the case, they replied again to my flatmate stating that the deposit would be sent across. We dealt with Sarah and Lindsey primarily, both of whom were consistently unprofessional and bordering on incompetent.

Do not sign with these agents! I wish I could give a 0 star review. Heaton Property are the worst, most disorganised estate agent company I have ever come across.

Avoid this business like the plague. Formerly, or currently, known as heaton properties.

I would give this place 0 stars if I could.

I spent 12 months being gaslit over mould and damp.

I echo the previous reviews. For someone so tiny in stature the manager is so nasty. I remember the heating went off in the winter, and rather than apologise and make it a priority to sort, he simply said 'we have a little heater in office if you want that'. It was snowing and I was at ... Read Full Review

Me and my partner rented a Heaton property flat for a year and it was a complete nightmare from beginning to end. It was by far the worst renting experience we’ve both had.
