What agent could do to change your mind?
Please ensure that you NEVER leave potential tenants unsupervised in anyone's home. I've never dealt with a company more unprofessional than Homefinders.

Complaints Procedure

Should you have a complaint please email [email protected] requesting one of our complaints forms. Once the form is completed and returned, in accordance with our complaint procedure we will be looking into your complaint to establish, amongst other things:

  • What corrective steps we need to take?


We will reply to you within ten working days with our response, if that's not possible we will contact you to let you know this and provide an estimate of when we will be able to respond in full.


We take our customers complaints very seriously and, if you're unhappy with our initial decision, we offer two stages of escalation:


1 - Escalation to our Managing Director (Mr H Sehri - [email protected]).


2 - If you are still not happy then the complaint can be escalated to The Property Ombudsman, whose ultimate decision we would be bound by (details of how to complain to The Property Ombudsman are available at www.tpos.co.uk )
