I would NEVER rent a property with this management company again, for the following reasons. 1. Despite paying the deposit and first month's rent several months in advance, the property was not ready to move into and the keys were not available on move-in day, yet the company still refused to amend the move-in date and kept all of the rent for this period. 2. The Company has no respect for their tenants' privacy and expected to be allowed to let themselves into the property whenever they felt like it, despite numerous messages from me to tell them I could make myself available if they told me in advance of the time of their visit. This was my home and I expected to be able to live there peacefully, without the constant worry that someone would have been in while I was out. I wonder how a Bowson employee would feel if a complete stranger let themselves into their home while it was unoccupied? 3. Insufficient or at times, no notice was given of visits to maintain or check the property, leading to unexpected interruptions in my working day. 4. Bowson attempted to keep a substantial amount of my deposit, despite the fact that I left the property in a better state than I found it. I took the matter to the DPS, who found in my favour and gave me back my deposit, but please bear in mind that you need to provide plenty of photographic evidence and it does take a few months for the DPS to investigate. I suspect that Bowson simply try their luck and hope that most people can't be bothered to appeal it, as they provided no evidence whatsover. I recommend that if you are currently renting from Bowson, make sure you take photographic evidence of EVERYTHING when you leave as I suspect it is a regular practice of Bowson to try to keep all or part of the deposit. If you are not currently renting from Bowson but are looking for a place to rent, my advice would be to give them a wide berth and choose a different company instead. I will certainly NEVER rent from them again.

Please avoid this agent as much as you can. It seems fine when you check in. When you check out, they endeavour to take every penny from your deposit. Below two photos are washing machine before my check-in and after my end-of-tenancy cleaning. They still want to deduct £110 given that I ... Read Full Review
