Comment on agent fees
I personally feel that the check in fee should be paid by the landlord. I really don't understand why I have to pay ‚£145 check in fee on a unfurnished property. I completely agree to pay a check out fee when i vacate, but its frustrating to pay a check in swell.

Comment on agent fees
I feel that the inventory check in fees should be paid by the landlord , not the tenant . And check out should be paid by the tenant. So that at the time of check out tenant is free to schedule inventory clerk at his own convenience. In my humble view, omitting inventory check in fee might reduce the fees in general which one has to pay in addition to deposit and first month's rent. This would be my only feedback. for the agency to kindly consider. many thanks.

Comment on agent fees
The agreement I made with Townends in Chiswick was a 'tenant finding service only' for a flat fee. James and Mark found me a tenant before FJLord did and I was happy with the representation agreement we made. I am sure I would use Townends again on basis of the same agreement. I was not required to sign the T&Cs (as in this case mostly irrelevant it our agreement). Mark's flexibility on this point was important and was much appreciated. We were able to proceed because of his amenable approach.

The contract to engage in filling a property is between the landlord and the agency. The relatively new trend to pass this cost onto the tenant feel like a scandal which I hope is outlawed asap.

What agent could do to change your mind?
They could have followed their own complaints procedure by doing a proper investigation into the breaches of the code of practice of residential letting agents as soon as identified and complained about and formally responding within the codes deadline period.Attached Filesnbsp;
