I found Jemma to be professional, polite, authoritative, friendly and efficient in her dealing with my search and subsequent application and process for the property. I would not hesitate to recommend her, and indeed Philip James, to those looking to rent in and around Manchester....

Comment on agent fees
As long as the letting of the property is managed appropriately safeguarding my investment then the fees represent value for money. As a property owner I would of course prefer longer tenancies without the need to keep paying finder fees. Philip James have assisted in finding such tenants and in my opinion have charged reasonably for contract extensions (to date).

What agent could do to change your mind?
She could have been honest and admitted her mistake. She called me a liar, was unpolite, yelled at me and unrespectful.
The manager was arrogant and from the beginning not willing to listen to our explanations.

They ripped us off 400‚£. Nothing was done, they only printed some papers and they charged us for it ‚£400+. They never contemplated giving me my money back.

What agent could do to change your mind?
They could have fixed the leak when we first reported it. Or even just sent someone round to assure us something was being done.
Once they had set the cockroach traps they should have sent someone round to collect them.
When ringing up to ask about a seemingly faulty dishwasher and being told someone will ring me back the next day. Not having to wait a week until I call back again.
They should have replaced the carpets when they told us they would.
They should have dealt with the leak issue themselves rather than sending us to get the tenants upstairs detail, and getting us to email them pictures.
The should not have rang us after we had left. Asking where the internet plug is.
The should not have rang us after we had left to ask which electricity supplier we used.
