We were told that they had let our flat after the 1st viewing. The 'tenant' left a deposit with them. The references were not acceptable apparently and the let fell through. They asked us to take the flat off the market which we did loosing potential tenants. When this has happened previously the other agent returned the deposit to us, ABC refused to do this. They also used the first agents photos and particulars without asking their permission. The agent who we dealt with told us he was new and didn't really understand the business.

Comments on Agent Fees

The fees continue to rise with a seeming decline in maintenance of the block. Since taking over the management of this block, the agent's fees have risen and continue to rise despite a tribunal deciding they were unreasonable.

In the beginning it is fine, possibly because they want you to pay the complete fee for the duration up front. The second they know that they need nothing from you, they become inaccessible. What's worst is when you call, and the person who answers wants to transfer your call, they put you on... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
