Absolutely awful estate agent that operates illegally (group viewings during Covid restrictions; providing false information about properties in order to let them; refusing to fix essential safety issues in them).

Untrustworthy, unpleasant and unprofessional staff. They regularly change their location on Google Maps- probably to avoid more poor reviews- and their current one on Ducie Street in the Northern Quarter does not exist. 'Dodgy' does not even come close.

If you see these crooks advertising accommodation to rent in the Manchester area, stay well, well away.

Wuite frankly the worst experience ive ever had with a letting agency. Karen is the most Rude and unhelpful person I have EVER had the displeasure of dealing with. My first experience of dealing with her she asked me ‘if I was thick?' all because I rang to ask a question about the boiler. Picked the keys up in Manchester, had to drop them off I'm barley?? Makes no senses considering the property is in Manchester. I loved the little apartment but parted because I couldn't deal with it being man ...
