After 3 years with Oliver’s Town, I have gathered so many bad experiences that it almost seems unrealistic for one company to mess up on so many levels. From leaving us, the tenants, without a shower for over a month and without a washing machine for even longer when they broke down, to changing the locks of our house while we were away on holiday and basically illegally locking us out of the property that we were renting, Oliver’s Town has never ceased to overpass our expectations in terms of their lack of professionalism. From my experience, and as a rule of thumb, I highly suggest researching your lettings company before signing any contract with them. My neighbours actually told me that when they were looking for a company to rent with, they purposefully avoided Oliver’s Town due to its very bad reputation. If you think about it, this makes a lot of sense when you find out that Oliver’s Town’s director keyed a recruitment agent’s car, after losing a legal battle, for refusing to pay him for his services. To me this says everything about their company, but if you still decide to choose them, know that you’ll be doing it at your own peril. They say that every cloud has a silver lining, and it is true that fortunately, our experience with Oliver’s Town hasn’t been completely horrendous. While the company itself is a big fat dark cloud that is bound to start storming all over your tenancy at any point, there has been one silver lining: Mihaela. I actually wish that I could give her a review separately, as she deserves all 5 stars, and I have nothing but good things to say about her! This amazing property agent whom we unfortunately only met in our last year of tenancy, has been nothing but professional. After a long line of ever changing property managers, we were blessed to be put in contact with Mihaela. Extremely professional, always helpful and very friendly, she has made our time with Oliver’s Town significantly better. I only wish that we could have been put in contact with her from the start, as I am sure that if that had been the case, I probably wouldn’t have anything bad to say at this point. So please, dear management team, hang on to her like dear life!

WARNING TO ALL, DO NOT RENT WITH OLIVERS TOWN. We had the unfortunate experience of renting with OT. Below are just some of what we had to deal with 1. Left without a fridge for 6 weeks. Even after using their own property management forms they were slow, and frankly uncaring, in replacing... Read Full Review

This is by far the worst letting agent I have ever had. When looking for a property to rent, they were very helpful and proactive. Once you signed a contract, it was like you didn't exist. Would ignore important maintenance requests for months, and you would have to call every day for two... Read Full Review

It is with regret that I write of my unpleasant experience with Oliver Towns. We travelled to London specifically for three days of house viewings and over the course of those three days saw ten different properties, with ten different agencies - Oliver Towns were by far the worst.

We gave Oliver's our keys so they could view our property while we were at work. They came to the property, removed all our post which they have thrown away and then did not lock the front door when they left. When we emailed to ask about our post and alert them to the fact they left the door... Read Full Review
