From start they were unprofessional, arriving late to the viewing and I should have passed this agent based on this alone. The bathroom door lock was broken and unsafe as it could fall on my little ones but it took 4 months to get fixed which is unacceptable. Fridge was not working properly ... Read Full Review

The property has rising damp which I informend the agency over a year ago and the main person they use to fix/mend properties is unprofessional and unreliable. So just hope nothing needs any work in your property. The only reason I would use this agent again is that they seem to have a almost a ... Read Full Review

Terrible service from day one. I don't know why I didn't see it as a sign. On viewing the property I waited 45 mins after the arranged time for someone to show me round, nobody appeared so when I called I was told that someone had come and I was not there. I had been sat outside the house for the ... Read Full Review

The s were helpful from the start. However they charged us 250 administration fee, which in my view is a lot of money for the service they offer. They also charge any additional costs, for instance 60 pounds to visit the house if anything needs to be fixed. Also, one member of staff was ... 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.
