Extremely happy with the service we got from Jake, Carly, Kane, and the other guys when we lived at Olivia Court. Always helpful, professional, and would resolve our problems very quickly. A benchmark to the other flat agencies. Highly recommended....

We understand that finding a home can be frustrating particularly if you are travelling a distance, I am sorry if there was some unnecessary inconvenience caused by us. Flats in Chorlton often receive a lot of interest. We try to keep viewing times relatively close together to give people the chance to apply. You are correct, we did have other viewings that day, we received 4 applications from these viewings, not 21. I am sorry we were not able to accept yours. It would not suit anyone's in ...

The turnover of tenants in the property is very high, I would believe this is for a good reason. I spoke to all of the tenants in the property and none of them stated that they liked it! Additionally I already stated that redecorating was not an issue but your terribly slow request for this was and we had to chase you about this. Having a landlord who allows for your front door to be left open and has huge parties in your shared garden is not a benefit. I'm sure people would not expect this if t ...

5 bedroom student house, 2 cleaners worked most of the day on your move in despite us telling you (and displaying in highlighted wording in your tenancy agreement) that if you took keys during the early part of the "half rent" period this cleaning may not be possible. In fact your group insisted on moving in only a few hours after the previous tenants left. You then turned up weeks after your friends had moved in and complained the house was dirty. (Your friends arrived while cleaners were worki ...
