What agent could do to change your mind?
In summary, the agent was useless, rude and vaguely racist. The lettings agencies in Newcastle aren't great in general, but Rook Matthews Sayer in particular were just awful.

Absolutely disgusting that these people charge a fee to basically do as little as possible. No customer service, no communication. Used once, never again. You would think that repeat business from families moving up the property ladder would be of paramount importance, and that service ...
