First and foremost I am disappointed. I first view the property with Mo, and was pleased with what I saw. We asked mo some question about service charge and ect, we had to correct him, because we knew what he said was incorrect to our surprise. We made an offer. Then I got calls from Mo, pressuring me to give over all my deposits info, max offer and MIP, I refused due to the manner the way I was spoken to, he made me feel very uncomfortable. Then I got another call from Matt pressuring me to do the same, then Andrew Roberts, to be fair Andrew seemed more composed out the three but my god three estate agent to call you is anyone's nightmare, so I reluctantly handed my over my MIP because I wanted to let the vendor know I am serious. I got an email back from Mr Robert informing the vendor went for a lower offer because apparently i could be a liability and will let me know if the situation changes. What a waste of my time and stress.

the estate agent just lied about everything including previous sold prices in the area and what the property would include. Couldn't advise on any useful information. Missed appointments and did nothing to aid relation between seller and buyer.
If you are thinking of selling a ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Firstly they could have found me a proper tenant first time around instead of wasting time with a totally unsuitable tenant. They could use a proper inventory company that knows what they are doing. They can try to concentrate on the telephone call they are on so they know what property they are discussing. To call back when you have left a message. To send you a statement every month without having to chase them. To act promptly and efficiently, and if they have too many properties to look after hire more staffAttached Filesnbsp;

James at the SE12 branch... lie after lie after lie. Lies in a polite manner, I will admit!
To start off I had requested a viewing with James for a property requiring total modernisation. After the viewing I put in an offer £20,000 below the guide ...

We have had the worst experience a tenant can imagine with our rental from Acorn. Our review is however mixed as not all aspects of the tenancy arrangement have been negative. We received great service from the letting office represented by Mr Callum Haughton. He ...

The agent could have acted with more due attention and sympathy for the tenant which the company also represents. Her communication skills are awful and desires much improvement.Attached Filesnbsp;

To begin with the I lost £800 of my deposit with the agency making claims for damage that have been reported from the beginning of the tenancy.
The inventory was completely unprofessional, having items in check in that never existed and having items missing ...

As a landlord, i would advise you not to use this company in any capacity. From day one, they have been nothing but a burden to me. On the day they moved tenants into my property, they lost the keys, and broke the gas tap. ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
He could have refunded my entire 3 years. they didnt do what i paid them to do, so a total refund is all i would accept as the right thing to do. anything less would be an insult. I simply detest this company for what they have put me through since that god forsaken day that i agreed to do business with them.Attached Filesnbsp;

Terribly horrid service by all. Our boiler broke and we called the agency a number of times to get it fixed. Lived with no hot water or heating for 1 month.
Only interested in taking money, and will only ring when there was problem with rent (...
