What can I say about JLL?
Very unprofessional beyond my worst expectations. It started from the very beginning but I wasn't paying much attention; from a flat that didn't have the full furnishings for the first few weeks to receiving an email saying I didn't pay my first monthly payment (seems they have deficiencies in their process of monitoring the payments received). Some facilities in the building were closed for maintenance for extended periods during my tenancy and as you can imagine, no compensation was received for that.
Things had been quiet after that as I had been paying the monthly rental payments before the due date and no communication with them, thanks god!
Then came the end of tenancy procedures. By that time and as a person acting in good faith, I hadn't been paying lot of attention to the deficiencies listed above, naïve me!. The end of tenancy was a hell of a pain. They made every possible attempt to make my experience very annoying. The inventory report (checking that all items were present and in good condition) was very poor. The report itself contained items that had already been replaced by them; the report mentioned such items as missing and I had to dig through my emails to send the landlord such evidence (i.e. doing their job for them). The report also worked on exaggerating anything found to prove that the flat was unclean; for example, saying that placements and coasters were unclean. How are these expected to be after years of usage? These are disposables! Accordingly they hired a cleaner and charged me a hefty price while the findings of the report were either unsubstantiated or immaterial. Think of it, stocktaking companies and cleaning companies need to get some work!
Raising the issues with JLL they were either passive or supporting the landlord's views. Not responding to my emails (or responding to the questions that suit them and ignoring other questions), They didn't manage the communication with the landlord who was keen to deduct hefty amounts for a bulb that needed to be changed or a piece of cutlery that was lost (although I left lot of additional cutlery, crockery and even electric equipment as I wasn't able to take with me. They only had one response; agree with the landlord! In short, they only care about the landlords!
Finally, my view is:
avoid at all costs; find another agent.

I recently had an incredibly frustrating and disappointing experience with JLL as my property manager. After moving out of a property managed by them, I was shocked at how they did everything possible to withhold as much of my deposit as they could, with little ...

I've been a tenant under JLL for 1 year. When I moved out, they made every possible thing to make my experience unpleasant: didn’t reply to my emails, didn’t do anything to stop the landlord from deducting over £150 from my deposit for having left ...

I previously rented from a JLL managed property, and the staff were very unhelpful in the move out process. It was impossible to get a response, and the lack of communication made it extremely stressful and challenging when moving out. After I moved out, and ...

The JLL managed property we rent in has now gone for a full year without having its windows cleaned once.
It's one of the more visually obvious signs of neglect in property maintenance we've come to expect from JLL, complementing the forgotten breached bicycle storage ...

Overall very good letting experience with JLL especially through dealings with one of their senior agents (Neil Short). He is very competent and prompt in his responses via e-mail with us which is something very important to us as we live overseas. They are also very fast in tenant acquisition each time an existing tenant moves out. That helps us keep our yield on the property in tact.
