My husband and I have lived in a two bed flat managed by Ascent Lettings for the last 6 years, which probably says a lot in itself. The administrative/move-in process was smooth and I have always found Rob and Melissa to be very responsive to any queries we have had by both phone and email. Any maintenance problems we have reported have been sorted out in a timely way. We had a couple of incremental rent increases over the years which were obviously not exactly welcome but were fair and in line with the market. The actual flat is modern, open and very attractive. The kitchen, lighting, underfloor heating, bathroom fittings and furniture were of a high standard and were all fairly new when we moved in. A few items were replaced without question once they started to show more wear and tear (eg fridge, mattress, dining chair). Ascent Lettings manage some of the nicest rental properties aimed at professionals in Sheffield - highly recommend.

Dear Ed
We are quite disappointed to read this review as during your tenancy we felt we tried our best to accommodate your needs. We must point out that the property was a purpose built first floor apartment and viewed by yourself before the tenancy started and too our knowledge never suffered from damp. We do try to be a reasonable and responsible landlord and we would welcome a call to try and resolve matters as we prefer to end tenancies on a positive note. ...

With all our rental properties a security deposit is taken at the beginning of the tenancy, this is used to cover any damages or rent arrears.
Prior to tenants moving into a property we instruct a third party to attend and complete an initial inventory, at the end of the tenancy a further inventory is completed by the same company. This process makes us aware of any new damage and helps us to confirm that all items provided as part of the tenancy, including furniture and appliances, have not b ...

Thank you for taking the time to express your views, however we unfortunately don't share the same opinion.
We don't feel it is acceptable to return a property in the state you did, and significant work was required to bring the property back to the standard it was let in. This can be seen by comparing the inventory taken at the start of the tenancy and check out report at the end. We are sorry if this caused you upset and was the worst experience you've had, however maybe you treated your p ...

We were charged a £75.00 administration charge on arrival and a further £75.00 on departure. Surely an inspection only needs to done once at the end of each tenancy. (Two bites of the cherry).

I stand by my original comments. To be clear I reported the excessive condensation/damp and it was this that prompted your communication. My concerns regarding security remain valid and are not addressed in your response (communal security door to block). Rather than allude to our ‘conduct during the tenancy' I would expect any concerns you may have in this regard to be clearly stated. ...
