I recently rented a property out through Romans. I consider myself a good Landlord and do everything within my power to be legal and fair. Romans hide behind small print to rip off both tenants and Landlords. Their terms and conditions do not comply with Guidance for lettings professionals on consumer protection law. They are planning to rip me off to the tune of about £ 55 a month for as long as my new tenant remains in the property. They do no work for this money and a Judge will probably rule it as unfair conditions but still they are going to hassle me for this money. As a pensioner this is my income - it is outrageous that I am 70 years old and have fallen foul of this outfit and may have to either fight in court or evict my poor tenant in order not to pay this money. No other agent I have dealt with is so money grabbing - this was a first and last time of using them. They also paid my tenants money into their account when it was instructed that it should come straight to me. They lied to my tenant and told them they had agreed the process with me. They then continued to keep emailing me and my tenant asking for information and documents that they had no right to ask for or see.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Comply with consumer law.

Comment on agent fees
They want to charge a fee for doing no work.
