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

After having signed a 12 months contract with Montrose I've discovered that my flat was not actually as advertised. I had a major issue with the windows of my flat, as they were broken and couldn't be opened nor closed and I had to involve the health department of the city council ... Read Full Review
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?
By : Rob Wildblood
16 Jan 2019Margherita, as you know, your Landlord's hands are somewhat tied due to the windows for the whole building being the responsibility of the block management company. You were informed about the...

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
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. I always found them to be friendly and helpful. A few years later, they looked after my home that I had purchased in Didsbury. I had 5 years ... 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.
No procedure set.
