To quick to judge apologies as issues are now being sorted thanks
Worst agency ever dealt with all prior landlords have been happy with us and treated us well, only go here if you wana deal with people set with there mind on your money. Never again
There are a lot of things to this story but I will try and keep it short and concise.
They rented out what they knew full well was a substandard property (their excuse is that the tenants accepted it in that condition). They categorically refused to rectify multiple critical health and safety issues that had already caused harm to their tenants. Then upon moving out they held the bond to ransom and falsely accused tenants of deliberately damaging the property. All of this of course is documented in photos and emails. I have included some photos with this review however I have refrained from posting the emails to protect the identity of the individual property manager involved.
All in all I am glad this saga is over, though I wish there was better recourse against property managers who so brazenly breach the law. Going to a tribunal is a lot of hassle not many tenants can be bothered with. Best case scenario, they make a lot of armature mistakes. Worst case scenario, they deliberately try to scam people. So whether you are a tenant ore a client of theirs, my advice is to tread carefully.
Website was easy to follow and a great description of the property. Photos were good too cant fault them.
