After a year and a half of being the perfect tenant, I left my home to find a “for sale” sign in front of my house. They hadn’t bothered to tell me. Jon Simon as a letting agency will follow all legal rules and boundaries. But when it comes to human decency, respect, kindness and following ethical and moral law, they flounder and don’t. I found a new home to rent due to the uncertainty of my new situation of having potential viewers look at my home and it being sold, and they promptly pasted a “for rent” sign over the “for sale” sign. The landlord wanted money coming in despite wanting to sell. I moved into that home with three children wanting a long term rent. They even told me I could decorate, with it being a long term rental. Gd knows what they told the next tenants. I vacated the property paying for an extra day to make sure I left it perfect. I cleaned the oven, hoovered etc. They didn’t inspect the property for over a week until I left, delaying things. They ignored my phone calls and emails. Eventually after I called them yet again, I was told rudely that I left the property unclean. I remember moving into the property to find nails on the bathroom floor and grease in the kitchen where there was no seals. They requested £150 to be taken off my deposit.
Warning to all prospective tenants. Unless there is a commission involved, these people will show you nothing but ignorance and zero respect. I trained in counselling and social work to masters level before I became a single mother looking after children including a child with a disability. These people see only a single mum on benefits who has no value at all. Despite me never having missed a months rent and having kept the house perfect. (I had inspections every 6 months). It’s both karma and irony that I’m currently the best bet for any landlord in the current climate, and that money greedy, ignorant sales people such as these will be the ones to loose money. Suffice to say, I would never rent from Jon Simon agency again, and I urge people to think very carefully before doing so.
