I was the guarantor for a property on Lower Park Rd, Rusholme which my daughter and two friends rented during 2021/22. Despite promises to sort issues such as broken furniture, a leaky roof, and the most horrific mice infestation that went on throughout the course of the rental period, Sylvia at Railton Meeks was sluggish to reply to messages, useless at getting things sorted, and downright ignorant and rude too. Despite the dismissive reply that will no doubt follow this review, I can honestly say as a private landlord with over 120 properties Railton Meeks have been an appalling agent with a total disregard for its tenants. I would strongly urge other prospective tenants to look elsewhere. I have photos if anyone would like to see them

    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.
