Jade has been managing my properties for several months. There were many problems over this time that required attention and Jade has always been efficient and communicated well during this time. I know if I require any thing Jade will always respond and seek out answers. I hope Jade remains my property manager for a long time.

The most unprofessional and disappointing agent I've ever dealt with.
When I moved in I saw how dirty and unkempt the room was. The walls were extremely mouldy, and the bed mattress hasn't been cleaned or replaced at all for a long time so it ...

Believe the 1-star reviews. I would give 0 if I could. From my initial onboarding as a tenant, to the very end, it was like pulling teeth. It's the worst of the worst in terms of professionalism. Expect curt one-liners to BIG issues, passive-aggressiveness, them giving ...

This has been by far the worst rental experience Ive ever had, and I\'ve been renting now for over 17 years.
First of all, we are internationals. Before moving in, we asked how to get electricity and gas sorted. They advised us that these would be available for 2 weeks when we moved in, and that would give us time to sort out more formal contract. We moved in - of course, no electricity whatsoever.
Moreover, the house was FILLED with garbage when we arrived. Mould in the washin ...

In 2021 we rented a house from leaders in Cambridge. Almost all the agents were very rude, not at all helpful and have an attitude of ‘ya whatever’.
I agree that Cambridge rental market is a sellers market and renters don have much say or option. ...
