On 12/12/2023 a stage 3 complaint was raised about an abandoned car permanently parked on residential car park managed by Hobdens Property Management. They ignored the complaint until it was made public and finally responded in August 2024. In public responses they lied that the complaint was responded ...

As commented on other sites where this individual has left a review, there is another side to the story with this vehicle, which is parked in an allocated parking bay and is registered SORN. Contrary to the review we have not ignored the issue and have the emails to prove it. The review is completely unfair. ...

A worse managing agent is difficult to imagine. Absolutely no response from Hobdens to any enquiries from leaseholders. They allow slum like conditions to fester. Lift out of order for 8 weeks. Flooding of entire areas of the common parts due to lack of drain clearance. ...

SOS represents many disgruntled owners at Marine Court, not one person as you imply. Since Hobdens joined THERE HAVE BEEN NO IMPROVEMENTS WHATSOEVER. In fact, the communication is the worst it's ever been with no responses to resident concerns or enquiries, it's like contacting a brick wall. They regularly cut off the water without notification, the only time you ever hear from them is when they send bills. They refuse to be transparent in regards to the company accounts when asked for them, th ...

I want to give some feedback about the work of Kerry at Hobdens Management who has taken over the job as the Property Manager of our buildings. Following some very unpleasant experiences, with work that was not done as promised, I was totally demoralised and ...

Absolutely disgusting, negligent money suckers. They charge leaseholders for management of block of flats, and do absolutely nothing. We have mould, thick layer of moss in all communal areas (I slipped and hurt myself twice), we dive in ocean of rubbish, rats are running here, ...

I’m in the process of purchasing a property where Hobdens are the managing agents. I called about a month ago with some queries- and have since called 5 times. Each time the poor receptionist has sent an email to the person looking after the property, ...

Hobdens Managing Agent has been the worst Managing Agent I’ve ever come across in my entire life and I’m over 60. I could write a book. They are refusing us to inspect the accounts after being served summary of service charges. They’re refusing ...

I can't quite express the dissatisfaction we've experienced with Hobdens. Unbelievably unresponsive, uncooperative and unprofessional. We spent over a year trying to get hold of them with constant phone calls and emails. We were consistently fobbed off with excuses and went countless times without a ...

This managing agent is absolutely unbelievable. We requested details of our service charges of which they’ve put completely illegitimate charges for things that we don’t even have like cleaning and electricity. The electricity gets charged to our own personal meters as leaseholders. I have walls falling down with dust and black mould everywhere and I have cancer and I have very serious lung issues and they’ve done absolutely nothing. They do not care that I’m living in a place that was a ...

Two main issues with Hobdens :-
1. When the block of flats I live in needed the roof repaired, Hobdens allowed the residents management company to maintain the service charge at far too low a level. This resulted in all 24 flat owners paying £5,000.00 each in a ...

Hi Helen
I have only just seen your comments as we did not get any notification about your post. I don’t know which property you live at so it is difficult to comment fully but please understand that the final decision on budgets rests with the RMC so it isn’t a case of us allowing the Service Charge to be too low.
Regarding the noise complaints these can sometimes be difficult to resolve without legal action and it sounds like such action may be disproportionate in this case. If howeve ...

On a personal level, I wish I had never heard, seen or had anything to do with these people. Unfortunately, I have no ...

We are aware of Mr Black's complaint and it would not be appropriate for us to go into the detail here but he is aware of the position. Whilst it is always disappointing to receive reviews such as this, there are always two sides to every story and we are content that we have acted correctly and professionally. ...

I have to laugh when they say they bet all of their contractors. They have sent absolute Cowboys out to our property when I asked who they were they said they didn’t know they’ve never used them before. They do not vote the people they send out at all. I’m going to do a full complaint where everyone can see what we’ve been through but I just had to make a comment on that ...
