Typical estate agency where no one wants to make any effort to match landlords with tenants. I explained at length my financial circumstances - just left my last position after 7 years to start up my own company. Offered one year's rent upfront on a one year lease but the landlord apparently prefers to offer a one year lease to someone who is in employment today but may not have a job tomorrow.. The agent was unable or unwilling to explain to the landlord the benefit of receiving all of the money for the lease upfront rather than be paid monthly and be wholly dependent upon the tenant remaining in employment for the period of the lease. One wonders what estate agents like this actually do to justify their commissions. Apparently they have "rules" and anything that is slightly different to the "rules"does not merit consideration.
What agent could do to change your mind?
They should have explained to the landlord clearly and concisely that they had a prospective tenant who was happy to pay one year\'s rent upfront for the one year lease that was being offered. They might also have added that the prospective tenant had been renting a property via Hamptons for the past 7 years, at double the monthly rent that is being asked for the property they are offering, with an impeccable record throughout all of that time (Hamptons, like King and Chasemore are part of Countrywide Plc.). The fact that they were unable to convey this information to the landlord speaks volumes about either the mental acuity of this company\'s employees or their willingness to do the job they are being paid to do, i.e.match landlords to tenants. Go figure.

These have to be worst letting agents in the UK. Right from the onset the service has been horrible with the lettings officer being uncooperative and rude. After inspecting the premises we had asked for certain issues to be resolved, which had not been attended to at the point of moving in.... Read Full Review

My experience with the K&C office in Kemp Town left me exasperated. I got little or no feedback, was given incorrect information and was also told lies. I had to do a lot of the work post offer, the agents just disappeared once we had a sale agreed. A smart suit or dress does not make a... Read Full Review

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.
