Posting this 6 months late but a lady called Donna helped me and my partner out so much. We had been struggling to find a flat and I became emotional as a viewing we had scheduled cancelled last minute. Donna was the lady showing us the flat and once she noticed how upset I was, she worked past her finish time to find us a flat. She went above and beyond and now that we’ve been living here for 6 months, I only have her to thank for this. I didn’t get this kind of help from any other agency.

Connor kindly showed me around the property during his inspection as I hadn’t had eyes-on in some time. He promptly sent over his in depth inspection report - giving me peace of mind. What a fantastic property manager, and may I say, charming young man. Thanks again Connor and to the rest of the Thistle group for their care and attention to detail.

Severe Mould, Neglect, and Unlivable Conditions, Avoid at All Costs

Renting through this agency has been an awful experience. We moved into the property and found severe mould issues, filthy conditions, and broken fixtures throughout. I did manage to remove mould myself initially - I just could not stand it and agency was taking forever to fix it, but because of underlying neglect and damp issues, it is already aggressively coming back.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Oliver while searching for a rental property, and I must say, his professionalism truly stood out. From our first interaction, Oliver demonstrated a deep understanding of the rental market and was attentive to my needs and preferences. He took the time to listen and provided tailored options that matched what I was looking for.Throughout the process, Oliver maintained clear communication, promptly answering any questions I had and guiding me through each step. His knowledge of the properties and the surrounding areas was impressive, which made me feel confident in my decisions. I appreciated his honesty and transparency, which fostered a trustworthy relationship.Overall, I highly recommend Oliver for anyone looking to rent a property. His professionalism, expertise, and dedication to client satisfaction made the experience seamless and enjoyable. Thank you, Oliver, for making my property search a positive one!

Positive

We've had a positive experience with DJ Alexander. They fix urgent repairs, though de-prioritised repairs can take some time to get fixed. Their move-out process comes with a 3-page cleaning checklist. We duly completed everything on this list and got our full deposit back from the landlord. During our move out, they were very helpful in assisting with applications for other properties. Edit: shout out to Alison McInnes our property manager and Elizabeth Saker who was super helpful with enquiries, they are a pleasure to deal with.

Great Selling Experience with DJ Alexander Glasgow

I’m incredibly grateful to Ruth Woodcock and Conor McNulty for guiding me through the sale of my property. From moving the property over from rental to the final sale, their professionalism and calm demeanour has never wavered. Their excellent communication and responsiveness meant I have been kept me informed every step of the way. They guided me through the complexities with clarity and reassurance, ensuring I always felt supported. I truly appreciate their dedication and expertise, which made this experience not only successful but also remarkably pleasant. Thank you so much Ruth and Conor. If you are selling your property in Glasgow, look no further than DJ Alexander.

A chance of tenancy and renovation work

I had a change of tenancy for my flat recently. While the flat was being shown to the prospective tenants by D J Alexander, I undertook organising a lot of renovation work for the flat myself. Brandon Wiseman was quick to find a new tenant for my flat. He also helped me by adjusting the time period for the work to be carried out properly, before the new tenant could come in. I found Brandon extremely helpful and approachable at every step and wish him well in his career.

Shambles of a company

Shambles of a company, moved in Disruptive neighbours to the flat above us, after multiple complaints they done absolutely nothing about this, police had attended the property and still nothing done. Got to the point we had to seek a different let, essentially being forced out of our home of over 5 years. This turned into another disaster as DJ alexander, on top of forcing us out of our own home, then explained they would not give us a reference unless we paid £30 for this. The reference which we paid for confirmed I was a Tennant a the property and nothing else. £30 wasted. I was then pressured to write a positive review on trust pilot for actually giving the reference! Upon moving, we have then had the usual daylight robbery technique applied where the additional cleaning bill just happens to match the full deposit amount. Mould was discovered Upon exit of the property, I have left this so it could be seen and dealt with however it would appear that they are going to clean the surface but not deal with the underlying issue. Anyone looking to move into the stonefield park area of paisley I would seriously avoid. Dangerous tenants have been moved in, people who have parties regularly over 3 day periods, police regularly called to the area, properties full of damp. This was once a nice area, dj alexander have absolutely ruined the place. If you are looking for a letting agent who will let you down at every turn, please spend your money with dj alexander!

Would not recommend this company in Aberdeen

We have properties in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire ‘managed’ by this company. Whilst I agree that in Aberdeenshire that Iona is fantastic, the same cannot be said for Aberdeen. This review score is for them. Their service has been consistently poor. Their communication is appalling. They do not tell us when the property manager changes (frequently) and we are then left chasing non-existent staff who obviously never reply. How hard is it to train people to introduce themselves when they start and send out general exit emails? We have repeatedly raised this and had assurances of improvement, but it has never happened. It has also had an impact on our ability to adequately maintain our property. We are on the verge of moving our business.

The sales team of Sarah Macintyre and Sara Ranking are a fantastic partnership, my communication and interaction with both ladies was fantastic.Sara was particularly quick with responses and was very happy to make those slight adjustments I had asked for she really is a very friendly happy and helpful young woman who is a credit to the company.Sarah was easy to deal with, friendly, happy and very professional nothing seemed too much for her she is also a credit to the company.I have already recommended DJ Alexander, Sarah and Sara to some friends.

Think of letting in Scotland, thing of DJ Alexander!

If you are looking for a befitting apartment to rent in Scotland, you need to cross mental hurdle of searching on the web for months, psychological trauma of viewing/applying and getting rejections, and financial stress of high cost of renting and making a huge statutory/cautionary deposit. BUT DJ Alexander Letting Agent in Edinburgh is completely opposite. These guys are highly professionals. Their feedback system is robust and timely too. The staff of DJ Alexander in Edinburgh (like Caitlin Butler, Kaiya, Leno, Calumn, etc.) are awesomely dedicated and supportive. Your enquiriesteam is phenomenal. I have been with DJ Alexander since I moved to Edinburgh and my last apartment offer is simply WOW. Keep it up!

Would never rent from them again

I rented a flat from DJ Alexander for almost four years and have had numerous issues along the way - I would highly advise anyone to stay away from this letting agency. Issues have included the check-in process (20+ inaccuracies on the initial inventory), long delays before any response from the maintenance team about ongoing issues like mice and mould and there being a lack of response/follow-up throughout the years (felt like I needed to phone Xavier many many times to get any response), it taking a full year for a shower to be fixed (despite multiple 'inspection visits to check the issue' that I had to stay home from work for), being told by Leno I was in the wrong for paying the amount of final rent that had been agreed, numerous inaccuracies again with the check-out report (like them trying to charge me for leaving the landlord's items in a cupboard) and being charged a three hour cleaning fee as that is the minimum amount even though I had already thoroughly cleaned the flat myself. It has been a horrendous experience where my landlord was allowed to get away with things like not responding or taking their responsibilities in regards to issues serious for over a week on multiple times. Natalie was the only member that I have had some positive experiences with when she fixed issues that others had caused.

An awful letting agency who I never…

An awful letting agency who I never wish to deal with again. Akin to other reviews, our original tenancy agreement was taken out with Tay Letting who were a fantastic organisation to deal with. Unfortunately for us (and for many others), DJ Alexander acquired Tay Letting around two months before our tenancy ended.The property was left in an immaculate condition which was reflected within the check out report. However, there was a charge on the report for a stain on the bedroom carpet. This was quickly refuted by us using the original inventory as evidence that the stain was already present prior to us moving in. There was then a second issue noted on the report saying that the windows did not open and that the landlord would be charged for them. Thankfully we had taken a video of the property just before we had left with all of the windows open.The above issues were quickly quashed by us, however, there was no sense of urgency from DJ Alexander to conclude the matter and release the deposit. Weeks went by with constant emails and phone calls chasing an answer where they were blaming the landlord for not responding. We believed what they were telling us at first although after 4 weeks we lost faith. Eventually, after voicing our dismay, the checkout department manager took control and within a matter of hours managed to get ahold of the landlord and release the deposit.DJ Alexander have recently acquired multiple independent letting agencies and are now struggling to keep up with the increased workload which is now at the detriment of the appalling service they provide.Avoid, if at all possible, although it now looks as though if you want to rent in Scotland you’ll need to deal with DJ Alexander. Worrying times ahead for the Scottish rental market.

Without a doubt, the worst letting agents in the city. They would want to visit the property around 3 times a year. I had to take unpaid days off work only for them to cancel at the last minute or not turn up. So I had to flat out refuse their visits, or tell them they can come on my time on evenings and weekends. I rented 655B Great Northern Road from them. The landlord himself was reasonable during my stay at his property, but the agents were terrible. They once tried to charge me £191 just for a plumber to deal with a blocked drain which took less than 10 minutes. Bear in mind, this was done and arranged on their instruction, not mine. After I left the property after 2.5 years, they are now attempting to claim my deposit, even though I had already overpaid them out of good faith - giving them an extra 25 days worth of rent. They are probably good if you are a landlord, but if you are a tenant, I would stay away. Then their staff had the cheek to ask for a good review! You can read the reviews yourself and see how poor their services are. At the end of it all, even though the landlord was good during my stay in his place and I was accommodating to him also, he turned as soon as I'd left his place and he had no financial benefit from me. He got with the tenant to try and claim the deposit. Fortunately they failed in their attempts They will probably reply saying, we will look into any issues you have, drop us an email. No thanks.

Fantastic experience with DJ Alexander Mctaggart, Lee Hardy and Oliver Esdaile

The people working with DJ Alexander have been fantastic to deal with. Both Laura Mctaggart and Lee Hardy were a tremendous help with my international move. Everything moved along extremely quickly. They were comprehensive and clear in their explanations. They expeditiously responded to my emails and dealt with any issues that were encountered along the way. Once I arrived to the UK, Oliver Esdaile was waiting for us at the flat to go through everything we needed to know. I’ve been very pleased to work with DJ Alexander and these wonderful employees. Certainly helps mitigate the stressful process of moving!

First time renting with D.J.Alexander…

First time renting with D.J.Alexander and so far a very positive experience. Elizabeth and Lauren were both amazing. I was moving to Edinburgh from London and had a very tight window of being able to view properties. Elizabeth organised everything for me so that I could maximise my time and also helped me out when other team members either didn’t reply or were less helpful. Lauren facilitated one of my viewings and my move-in and was efficient, friendly, and helpful.

This is a terrible agency

This is a terrible agency. Repairs take forever. had ancient furniture. By the end of the tenancy the flat was left in great condition, even better than the state we got it in, and they had the audacity to cut a huge sum from my deposit regarding stuff out of my control, like cleaning windows externally, knowing Glasgow is a rainy city, and purposely delaying the post move out inspection, resulting in the delay of releasing of the deposit(what’s left) knowing that the flat got rented after my move out. Pathetic. Terrible experience

Best inspection process till date

Oliver was really friendly and was fast knowing I had to rush to work. He called a few minutes in advance before recahing my house as I had to go to work that day and was very understanding when I reached a few minutes late. He checked all the areas in a quick and efficient manners and checked on the progress of my report on the kitchen issue as well. Out of all the inspections I had so far this was definitely one I would appreciate.

The DJ Alexander property management agent - Great experience/excellent service

The DJ Alexander property management agent/manager Camron Lindsay has visited my property to carry out a routine inspection. I am a tenant occupying the property for 20 years and have always been satisfied with the agency. Cameron was very professional, thorough in his inspection and gone the extra mile to raise the repairment job within 2 days of his visit on my behalf. Great to know as a rep of the agency he does his job extremely well, and demonstrates great peoples' relationship management skills. Communication was excellent, I have been kept updated and can easy plan my work/life around the maintenance. Well done! Keep up the good job.

A very positive experience.

Stephen Lawson and his team, Abby, James and Giulia have been supportive throughout what can be an extremely stressful process of house selling. Stephen was always contactable. From the time of my initial meeting with Stephen I always knew I could get advice and support whenever required. The team took care of the advertising and viewings and kept me informed every step of the process. I was extremely happy with my choice of DJ Alexander to market and sell my property.
