Atrocious service and a complete disregard for tenants: this is the only way (and possibly still too nice) to describe Spicerhaart's (and FJ Lord's) way of dealing clients. I didn't think it was possibly to be treated with so much disrespect. As a tenant who's ... read full review
What agent could do to change your mind?
Look after a tenant who's always paid rent on time and 'merely' asked for a functioning hearing in the winter. The disrespectful and dismissive tone in their emails is unacceptable.

I can honestly say I have never ever been as upset and disrespected as I have whilst letting my property through this company. I can list about 53 things (I am keeping a list) of events over the past 12-18 months whereby they have breached their ... read full review

Be an letting agent who respects both the landlord and tenant. Increase communication and follow the rules of the contract that you implement!!

I am a first time landlord and didn't realise that once the property was let by the Lincoln office it would be managed by a team in Essex. That was my mistake for not doing my research.
There was inconsistency of contact in that over ... read full review
What agent could do to change your mind?
Limited the number of people dealing with my property.
Been more flexible in terms of using landlords choice of contractors.
Explained how they selected their 'approved contractors'.

The incapability of Spicer Haart's (and FJL's) property management as well as their contractors is far beyond standard.
We had repair work that was due to be carried out for 5 months! Still the one issue that constitues a health & safety hazard, and has already caused ... read full review

Its a standard marketing charge. Read the small print. There are lots of reasons why houses dont get viewed - bad pictures on details, people arent interested inthe area, not enough applicants suit the properties in stock etc etc . Basically its all about price. 6 viewings in 4 months = overpriced property. Did u reduce at all? People only pay what they think a house is worth - a competitivley priced property gets viewings and offers, overpriced don't. Something to think about after giving less ...

They fail to manage in every respect of property management. They have cost me a lot of money because of their incompetence and lack of supporting documents/paperwork. Their procedures are woefully inadequate. Staff are badly trained.... read full review

I cleaned the place top to bottom when I left and yet they still insisted on getting professional cleaners in at my expense!!!! What do you make of that??? They even had the cheek to blame it on the landlord but he is not even here in the country? ...
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.
