A shameless disgraceful company. Throughout the year, the agency never replied to calls after we paid the deposit. When we turned up, the flat was in a dirty state (carpet stained, floor tiles damaged, light bulbs missing), but the documents say everything is cleaned and fixed to a professional standard. I suppose this sort of professional standard can be compared to as just how professional this company is. One bed was missing in a furnished flat, which took this agency a week to sort out. We requested the company to amend the agreement that the place is not cleaned, in the end we were sort of settled. However, when we were moving out after a year, the huge bill for all the cleaning issue and damages we did the the flat is really shocking. They were asking us to pay them to clean the flat professionally, basically most of the deposit is gone. I really wonder if they have cleaned anything this time, I wish the next tenant best of luck.

(By the way, this agency said they will check on the tenants within a month of moving in on behalf of the landlord to make sure everything is going well. This has never happened, we were only ever contacted by the company because we were not paying the rent a few days before the agreed day of the month.)
Comment on agent fees
Bad, roughly £100 a month added to the rent. Hence it's "free".

Hi Mel, I am really sorry to read of your disappointment, we never want anyone to feel like this. Even if we have several notes of interest, if somebody sends us an offer via their solicitor, we are duty bound to report this to the client. We always advise our client that if there are notes of interest, they should reject the offer and consider calling a closing date to allow everyone to offer, however a seller has every right to simply accept the offer if they feel it is at an acceptable le ...
