Grant used to be good but ever since we’ve moved into our new flat we’ve had nothing but poor service. No responses to emails, the wrong information was given about the flat (for example, we were told it had a prepayment metre. They then said they’d accidentally left the keys in the office-then closed for the weekend rather than let us collect them because apparently they couldn’t wait an extra 15mins). On moving in and seeing the metre, it isn’t even prepayment- it’s a smart metre! Repairs are hit and miss. Some repairs are dealt with promptly but others (such as the window being glued shut which we told them about in February, haven’t been sorted. They sent somebody out to look at it but the guy showed up, looked at it, then left and didn’t come back.
Other times, the agents and their subtractors show up completely unannounced, or give very little notice. Usually I wouldn’t mind, but when you’re an online tutor and you’ve got some guy banging on your door and shouting “hello? hello? hello?” after they’ve opened it (they have keys to your flat as well) and I have to delay my lesson, then it isn’t good. I never write reviews but Grant have been completely unprofessional, with no regard for the law in Scotland surrounding notice to tenants. By law, the landlord, the agency and their contractors have to give a minimum of 24hrs notice- a minimum.

Had one of their managed flats leak water into mine on 3 separate occasions but they refuse to repaint my ceilings that their leaks damaged!
Now they appear to have shut down their Facebook page too after I left comments stating this? Or blocked me! Hmmm?...

I wish I’d read reviews before I moved in. As everyone else states they are absolutely awful at replying and getting in contact. They failed to put our deposit into a deposit scheme within 30 days and I’m struggling to get my deposit back. ...

Problems from the offset. No formal inventory given to us. Previous tennants belongings left in the dirty flat. During the tennancy emails got blatantly ignored to the point I had to report them to the council and withhold rent over issues. Upon moving out they ...

Do not land yourself with a leaking, mould ridden property from Grant Property.
Why they will not do anything to repair their properties is incredulous as it just leads to further damage and escalating repair costs, and, dissatisfied tenants?
Avoid renting from this company....

If I could give this company zero stars I would. Flat moved into was somewhat clean but grounds were untidy and unkempt although rent agreement said the agents would keep this tidy and in good maintenance. We sold a house to them in exchange for ...

The worst lettings agents in the universe.
They demonstrate a history of persistent lies and leave tenants in poor living conditions. They dont care if you have genuine concerns and just shirk off their legal responsibilities.
Avoid them completely! ...

I had to pay a non-guarantor fee which was 2 month rent up front, not withstanding a deposit on top. We received a shocking deduction for cleaning (they must use the most expensive cleaners in Dundee) when the flat was fine. However, nearly 2 months down the ...

Firstly, when we moved in we reported that a chair was broken on arrival. Our reply to this was that they had contacted a contractor to replace the chair ...

Before we even got the keys at 1pm we were turned away and told to come back in half an hour after lunch.
The flat had a lot of black mould hidden behind beds and other nooks and crannies we did not see on inspection, ...

Grant prorperty agents are great at lurring people into renting flats run by them. There is no denying that the flats are tastefully furnished, however this comes with grave consequences.
My flat mate and I moved out of this flat and left it sparkling clean. ...
