Single handedly the worst agent I have ever come across, I work in a lettings agency myself and the amount of laws they break is just completely outrageous. They changed my deposit scheme midway from TDS to MyDepsoits, without even telling me or producing me ...

Wow - AJ really will go to any lengths to try and hide his own dishonesty. You only have to read previous reviews of this company and AJ himself to see what he is truly like to deal with. As for myself, we did indeed work for him for around 8yrs, on and off.

Hi we recently left from a property that AJ owned. He only gave me back half of my deposit with deducted agency check out fees, administration fees and cleaning fees. He gave half of it back without agreeing it to me.... Did you get anything back? really annoying as mine is now released from the deposit scheme or they were that dodgy that it never was in a deposit scheme?! ...

Worst estate agent in Reading. Monthly inspections are intrusive, AJ is rude and controlling, and they will screw you out of every penny. We were once charged for a return inspection visit after there was dust on our bin- a bin that we own! Avoid ...
