Shysters or simply representing unscrupulous landlords - i'm not sure.
Regardless, be very wary when you rent from these guys. Nearly 4 months down the line that is me finally getting my deposit back after fighting about cleaning and the replacement of a carpet in one ...

Sadly I have nothing positive to say about Property Bureau, who I am currently renting my home from. Avoid at all costs. They will not fulfill their legal responsibility as a letting agent to provide accommodation that is water tight, heated sufficiently, and functioning to ...

Hi Claire
Sorry to hear you are also suffering as a result of Property Bureau's negligence. Hopefully your issues have been sorted by now, but if not, the email address is enquiries@propertybureau.co.uk. We are still living with the consequences of repairs not being made before the pandemic. ...

I've had a great experience with Property Bureau from the very beginning. Signing the lease after viewing the property was really hassle-free and they have always kept their promises since. They are very responsive to all my enquiries whenever there's a fault in my flat. ...

As you can't give a rating of 0, 1 will have to do.
My flatmate and I stayed in a property listed with property bureau for over a year and a half.
Throughout that time we had constant emails, phone calls and hassle from the agents at ...

Yet another money-grabbing letting agency which doesn't care about its tenants, and whose staff seem to forget that despite the property being rented, this is still the tenants' HOME, and should be treated with respect.
The flat was dirty and mouldy when I moved in; ...

This property bureau rented me a house which during the winter proved to be absolutely insufficient as a winter let. Leaky windows, uninsulated tin roof, draft coming in from the windows and from the front door, a road full of potholes and not ploughed throughout ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
If the agent would have responded to us regarding our complaints, rather than just sending us a "notice to quit" and taken it seriously, we could have worked something out.Attached Filesnbsp;

They've never attended repairs. After I informed them I will be vacating the property in summer, they decided to ask us to move out on 31st March 2014. A property that was unfurnished and no photographic inventory provided, they decided to with-hold £1500 deposit of ours. The ...

Be there for both tenants and landlord. Help the tenants more (when it comes to property maintenance) - they are the middleman between the tenant and landlord but they clearly failed.Attached Filesnbsp;

What agent could do to change your mind?
Acknowledged problems, attempted to fix them, left the flat in a reasonable state (it was disgusting) and not expect it to be in a better state when keys handed back (although it was by far). Not be so blatant in cheating the tenant out of the deposit and by sticking to the terms of the lease agreement.Attached Filesnbsp;
