Thank you for taking the time to write this review,
However please let me point out the following:
All of the extra services and recommendations were given to you as recommendations and at no point have Avrasons charged any commission of any sort, although i have always offered to assist with any queries, taxation issues, plumbing issues, and you were not even a Managed Landlord, as mentioned on many occasions the works that were carried out, especially the carpet, was owing to YOU constantly trying to cut corners and save money after buying an old, period property thus affecting the renovations, i.e. not replacing the carpet grippers thus when placing down new carpet after a few months started to lift, although this was not my contractor's fault, my contractors changed these for you FREE of charge and within 48 hours of tenant reporting. The mistake of double charging for rubbish removal was just a minor mistake by the contractor and rectified straight away, so kind of find this irrelavant, but in regards to this all rubbish including additional items that were not originally on the quote were removed at no extra cost, windows were never nailed shut, unless were already done before you purchased the property, and this complaint has never been brought to the contractor's or my attention until today, At all times i have been more than happy to assist you, yes i already acknowledged some of the decorating was not up to the usual standard i would expect of the contractors we use, and they have been more than happy to re-attend and rectify, although a lot of what you have stated that was wrong in your property is totally and utterly false, also, AS YOU WELL KNOW, your tenant is very awkward giving access, so is has already been agreed to rectify once she vacates your property in 2 weeks.
******** Other landlords reading this review, please be mindful that the nature of this review is due to Avrasons having to dis-instruct this particular landlord a few weeks ago, owing to her disgusting attitude and behaviour to numerous staff members of Avrasons. it has also been brought to our attention recently that a few other local Agents have also had enough of this persons attitude and behaviour and subsequently dis-instructed her also.
We at Avrasons take every step to look after our Landlords, tenants and also our employees and have a ZERO tolerance to rude, abusive and threatening behaviour, we endeavour to provide a 1st class service to all our customers and on the odd occasion that anything is not up to our usual standard we are more than happy to rectify straight away. Please read all our other reviews from landlords and tenants alike and Google reviews and you will clearly understand that something does not quite add up to this slanderous complaint.
