Worst experience ever - a costly mistake
Their terms for landlords seemed fair and they promised everything we needed. Unfortunately, once appointed, it wasn't long before their lack of interest of ability became clear. Getting hold of anyone and getting meaningful answers was very difficult; replies to emails can take days or even weeks - if at all. But worst of all, they lied to and misled us and the tenants.
What looked like god value turned out to be the opposite - they even kep a finders fee when we found a new tenant!Their additional services are ridiculously expensive and, contrary to their website, are not all legal requirements that need 'professional' and expensive intervention. Some, if not all, of the 'independent' services are owned/controlled by the same owner/director, and yet their online information and literature promotes them as wholly independent.
Not surprisingly, you'll get nowhere if you challenge the poor work or high prices. And if they do appoint trades to undertake any work, the results are very mixed and, again, very expensive.
The owner/Director lied about who owns/controls the company to avoid putting things right. I eventually learned thet he was, in fact, struck off the Roll of Solicitors for professional conduct - he was misleading clients.
When we tried to leave and go to another agent it was difficult and very costly. I wish I had never heard of them.
Go to them at your peril. You have been warned.
