I was told the same by a friend who originally rented with them and told me they tried to retain his deposit for no reason, but didn't heed the warnings.

This agency are unorganised, unprofessional, and incompetent. The flat itself was damp, there were flies/maggots living behind the sink due to a lack of sealant/dampness (which was not a health hazard apparently..) and the dishwasher stopped draining and sat with mouldy, festering water in it...

They only do anything when the council has been brought in to force their hand, leaving the properties they manage with broken appliances and mice as a result. Even their own maintenance team have complained about... Read Full Review

Despite the fact fees relating to tenancies have been illegal in Scotland since 2012, 1st Lets charged me a £100 admin fee in 2016. Being over a barrel essentially - either I paid the illegal fee or I wouldn't be able to move into the property - I paid it. I moved out in January 2018 and... Read Full Review
