Absolutely couldn't do this review justice with words. I can't dissuade people from using Montrose enough. Terrible service. Had no heating for the coldest months, and couldn't even get a reply from emails. The whole year they treated us as second class customers because we were ... Read Full Review

Comments on Agent Fees

Agent’s fees are ridiculous, especially the ones required to renew the contract - why do you need to pay agent’s fees to renew a contract if you just need to re-sign a piece of paper?

Montrose Properties (Didsbury) have been the best estate agency that I have ever used, in the whole time I have rented, and if I hadn't brought my own home I would have stayed with them for longer. The flat me and my wife rented was refurbished and we was the first ones in and was completed ... Read Full Review


Comments on Agent Fees

Agency fees were very good, rent is competitive for the area. Deposit was maybe a little higher then I have previously experience but at the end of the day if you look after the property and leave it as you found it then you will get it all back.

I found Montrose after graduating and moving to South Manchester. I rented a shared house with them and then a lovely one bedroom apartment in West Didsbury.
