I rented a flat with Avrasons with 1 other person for 7 years with Avrasons. I have had a few bad experiences with estate agents over the years, however Avrasons were a genuine exception. They always responded to queries and fixed issues when they arose. On check-out I got my full deposit back. Marcia was great to deal with, as was some of the others in the office. If you are going to rent in Oval I would recommend calling them to see what they have.

Hi Scott, as per my other replies to your numerous negative reviews, this review is highly inaccurate, you rented with us for 2 years with no issues until vacating and the discrepancy with your check out inventory, you were offered to counter offer the deduction or take to dispute but you did not, inventories are independant from Avrasons as dictated by all deposit schemes as such we are not to blame for the poor condition you left the property in compared to how it was when you moved in. regard ...

For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
