I'm writing to warn potential renters about Leaders Estate Agents in St. Albans. I had a terrible experience with them, and I don't want anyone else to go through what I did.
The staff was unprofessional and incompetent. They were rude and dismissive and didn't know what they were doing. They mishandled paperwork, misplaced important documents, and gave me incorrect information.
When things went wrong, no one took responsibility. They just passed the buck around, and I never got any answers. I felt like I was being blown off, and I was never able to get anything resolved.
I would strongly advise anyone considering using Leaders Estate Agents to look elsewhere. They are unprofessional, incompetent, and have no accountability. You're better off finding an agency that will treat you with respect and give you the service you deserve.

Terrible Experience - Avoid at All Costs!
I had an absolutely awful experience with Leaders in St Albans. For seven weeks, I was repeatedly reassured over multiple calls and emails that everything was in order with my rental property, that contracts had been signed, and ...

Ross tricked us into paying a No Deposit option for our whole tenancy (amounting to £650 we won't get back..) by saying the landlord would never agree to a tenancy agreement without it. Turns out the landlord never got any of the money and leaders kept ...

Tenants Beware!
Be very careful when renting with this company, particularly when it comes to leaving the property. They will attempt to charge an extortionate amount from your deposit even when this is not warranted.
I my own case I left the property in the ...

Comment on agent fees
We had cheaper quotes from other agents, but found that a lot of agents tried to quote a cheap management fee then add on lots of extras. We felt we got good value for money.
