“Stay away if you are a tenant, use someone else if you are a landlord...”

If you are a tenant, steer clear from this agents. They are from start to finish about milking money out of tenants. Throughout my time renting a property through them, they tried to find every possible way to extort money from me. It was extremely stressful and upsetting and they managed to ruin two Christmas periods for me with their shenanigans. If you must rent through them get all agreements and communications in writing and take comprehensive photographs of the property upon moving in and moving out. Check your rights when they attempt to charge you for things as they will try and make you liable for things that are legally the landlords responsibility.
And if you are a landlord, I implore you to use a different agents if you have any care and consideration for your tenants and view renters as human beings rather than just a resource to be exploited.

Really can only agree with you . Bully boy attitude and still waiting for over £500 deposit I should have got after our place was trashed ! So far we have lost well over £1000 due to this company saying no damage done and that they didn't even know they were renting it out ! Been in hospital twice due I believe to Martins as the stress they have caused us since I made the terrible mistake of letting them rent our house out for us ! Just look at the photos and they are just a few and they insis ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Treat all customers with respect and courtesy, speaking in a professional and polite manner. Honour agreements and keep accurate records of requests. Read correspondence and act on it in a timely fashion. Check emails before sending them (not only to check they are going to the correct recipient, but some proofreading is also needed). Follow your own complaints procedure correctly. Be prepared to travel to properties you manage, or else don't take them on if you can't manage them as part of your workload. Act on requests for repairs promptly, without needing to be chased. Don't be pedantic about truly trivial matters whilst failing to deal with major problems.
