Generally a very good service, checkout and deposit returned fairly and squarely.
Had to go through a 3 monthly 'inspection' of the property which M&P demanded conduct at their convenience whether we were present or not which was invasive and very poor form
I would echo other reviews that staff can be abrasive, but its easy to be rude back and ultimately, we were treated properly on checkout and the deposit returned in a timely manner which is what most tenants are concerned about, so 4 stars

Our dream home was on the market with Martin & Pole in Wokingham, and I could not be happier with the process! Giles kept us informed throughout the process, spoke to the seller for us to resolve any potential delays, and was generally incredibly helpful if ...

My wife and I initially let our property with Martin & Pole for many years, and in 2018 we then put the house on the market through Martin & Pole. Throughout this time we have found the staff to be highly professional, conscientious, and very experienced as estate/...

Comment on agent fees
Whilst cheaper fees may be found with online agents, the benefits of having a local estate agent who knows the area and the market - are invaluable.

Staff rude on the phone when asked reasonable question, and Ignored letters.
When we left the property we were charged unreasonable charges from our deposit, (including some that were already listed in the inventory when we moved in, and others that affected the whole building.)

Mr Auger. Whether you were the managing agent or not is irrelevant and I made no assertion to the specific details of this complaint beyond your lack of interpersonal skills...of which we have a further display here. I did draw attention to the nature of your response to the complainants review, which is now further compounded by your once again making personal remarks about a former customer.
Now maybe you'd like to comment on ALL the complaints below, or will you continue to be evasive and si ...

It does seem unfair that we have mentioned schools nearby if the landlord did not want children - my apologies.
Some people are a little sensitive when we ask personal questions. The lady who asked the questions would not have made assumptions - we are being paid by the owner to find the best tenant. The best tenant for one property may not be the best tenant for another property.
If we got the balance wrong on this occassion - once again my apologies. ...
