The process for applying to rent a house had various steps but Beth explained everything so we understood and she sorted out our application efficiently. Beth always replies to emails straight away and is happy to help.
We had a problem with the hallway light which we mentioned and after chasing up a little while later, it was sorted which was great. Beth has also been arranging to sort out our windows so the house is warmer. All in all, it's been great to have Beth sorting out our queries!
With regards to Coastal in general, the high agency fees are something I always find frustrating because it comes to a total of £540 for the three of us. The paperwork and admin that arises from us renting this property (I imagine) has totalled up to half a day's work so far which would cost £40 - £50. That means the company takes quite a lot of money on top of that (and I imagine profit is made from the landlord also). I've paid agency fees each year for the past 3 years and frustratingly, it all adds up to a large expense which I struggle to afford (then, being a student and now, recent graduate). For that reason, in the future I will always look to rent straight from a landlord.
Other than the fees, everything else so far with Coastal I'm really happy with!
