My experience with Maguire Jackson has been extraordinarily bad. Having made arrangements to view a particular property, and coming from overseas at great expense both financially and in time, Maguire Jackson notified me that the property I had arranged to view was now "off the market"... but they had "a number of alternatives they would like to show me". Sound familiar? They lied: the property had not been taken off the market, the vendor had decided to change agent - I don't wonder why. After complaining to them about this experience, I was given every apology and assurance that this is not the service they set out to provide. Prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt, I made further requests to view particular properties - as an investor. Maguire Jackson failed to reply to 3 emails and a phone call.

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.

Maguire Jackson take your tenant's rent but do not hand it over to you as the landlord, unless you complain every month.
