Terrible agency.
They "forgot" to mention the scaffoldings which were to come up on our house about 2 weeks after we moved in and took 2 months to come and fix a window.
They are unefficient, irresponsive and unethical.

The team here at Alwyne Estates do their best to provide a good service to both our landlords and tenants.

We take every review personally and would like the opportunity to discuss each individual bad review with each party so we can look into any problems which may have occurred in each particular case.

At Alwyne Estates we really appreciate everyone's honest feedback as if you do not tell us where you think we are going wrong or what we could be doing better we will never improve.

That said we currently manage over 250 properties, housing over 800 tenants and the amount of landlords that use us speaks for itself.

We would urge anyone reading these reviews to come in and visit us personally at the office, meet our team and make your own opinion.

Dear Unhappy Customer. I am struggling to relate this review to any of our sales in the past 18 months since my return to the office as Sales Manager. I have not had a direct complaint regarding our sales service which would match up to this review. I would ask you to contact me direct to discuss. Alwyne Estates like to think of ourselves as a friendly local agent which base their service on 100% effort and 100% honesty in all aspects of our agency. We welcome any feedback especially negati ...

We have had the exact same treatment, outstanding repairs and maintenance that hasn't been sorted in months despite bumerous calls and emails. The landlord/ service men let themselves in with no prior warning despite us repeatedly asking the agency to make sure this happens as we are a house full of girls. The service and communication is appalling, when our contract changed we had to ask the agency for contracts to sign!! Utterly useless! ...
