Landlord-friendly company, not for someone trying to rent.
Advice to anyone trying to rent property with them:
1. Foxtons has landlord-first approach - Journey might seem good in the beginning when you are going for property visits, but becomes a nightware after the contract is signed - delays to get the repairs done, and getting back your deposits due to their landlord-first approach.
2. Do self-inventory - If you wish to go with them, please make sure that you have all documents with you - photos when you checked-in and checked-out and please get them signed. Though they have a paid inventory company, they cannot be trusted. Please do go through their check-in report, do make photographs and get them signed with Foxtons. Please also make sure that you are available at the property this private company comes to "make" check-out report.
3. Keep track of your conversations - Please also make sure that all your communications with Foxtons are recorded somewhere like emails as you will need them in future. They have a option to report issues in their website, but they closes them on landlords behalf even if you have raised the issue and have had no resolution.
Tenants, you are on your own - good luck with Foxtons. I've not got my deposit back even after 55 days I left the property. Silent landlord, silent Foxtons.
