The management of my property was dreadful, they never performed any regular checks. The agency kept hounding me for money when I owed them nothing and they had previously confirmed that, in fact they owed me money! Extremely bad attitude. Not the worst agency I had used but they were pretty bad.

The comments from Kevin are over board to my Agents Burwood Marsh also Moses. I have a few properties I use Burwood Marsh to find tenants for as long as 16 years now. All previous tenants found Burwood Marsh & Moses honest & trust worthy. Cut a long story short there were a few problems with the state of the flat being returned back to me reported to me by my Agents/Moses and after inspecting my property which was a brand new flat given to the tenant. I was shocked by the condition it was retu ...

I am the landlord, I would ignore this particular review, this tenant's name is obviously not Kevin, is an adolescent Italian chap and his girl friend, they had clearly bitten off more that they could chew, were newbies in the uk. My instinct was not to rent out to people do not understand the system in the uk. They struggled with rent payment. Very disruptive, tapped up all with see through-plastic film to save money on heating, causing damp in the flat. Till date in over 12 years are were the ...

Hi 'Mark' please clarify what property you have moved into (even a property reference) as we have no 'Mark' noted on our books over the past 6 months or more yet you log a review as if this is something recent. We are worried you have noted the 'wrong agent' maybe, and also that you cite that 'someone' 'cut you off' and 'the staff' but have not mentioned any names, even male or female. We are a small team and none of us have any reference to this, and would happily resolve if you clarify furth ...

Alex, unfortunately the error in this case was merely relying on the Landlord's advise that the payment was made and then found to be delayed a further day and the wrong sum was initially paid, but the Landlord corrected this. We endeavoured to update you throughout the process. We don't hold the deposit as explained and are merely the agent to'ing and fro'ing between Landlord and Tenant to ensure the deposit is refunded. Delays happen when the recipient doesn't action but when any party was o ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
I have had the misfortune of renting an apartment off this poor excuse of a lettings agent. They took 6 months rent + deposit off me as they said this is the requirement of the Landlord. Turns out after I moved in that the landlords had no idea and never requested the 6 months from me. Burwood Marsh intended to keep my money in their account (no doubt earning interest) and pay the rent on my behalf. After their lie was discovered both myself and the landlords have requested the money back from them. After repeated assurances that the money will be paid (at the beginning of March) I have yet to receive it back. In addition to this, having dealt many letting/estate agents over the years, I have never come across such rude and arrogant staff as at Burwood Marsh. Please let this be a warning - Do NOT use this agency, there are plenty of others located on the same street/area and I am sure any one of them are more professional and trustworthy than Burwood Marsh.. You will be seeing this same review on other websites, facebook (Burwood Marsh) and on their twitter page.
