GoogleAvoid at all costs.
Acted like crooks. Drummed up spurious reasons to withhold money from our deposit charging an outrageous sum for "cleaning" and an administration charge for charging money from the deposit.
We left the flat spotless.
They also failed to follow government guidelines for returning the deposit taking months to even begin the process. Finally we received all the deposit back as we complained to the safety deposit scheme who asked for evidence which Stonehouse were clearly unable to provide.
If you have the audacity to question their professionalism or dare to demand the money they rightfully owe you back, good luck getting landlord review from them!
They're absolutely delightful when they're trying to pour you into a property and from that moment they are abysmal.
Our property manager was less than useless. We would get in contact via the maintenance website *and* by email about problems, including but not limited to:
A broken shower - took 5 visits from 4 different sets of tradesfolk who showed up, looked at it and left saying they need to order a part. When they finally had the right part (it was not a match) they installed it back-to-front. I'm not even sure how that's possible. It only provided 3 temperature settings instead of a sliding scale. They did fix it properly eventually but it was months, not days.,
A window in the living room that wouldn't close properly - took 3 months to fix and left us freezing during the winter months
A leaky boiler - never fixed
Giving a key that allowed access to the water valve - took 5 emails and a verbal confrontation upon their visit

GoogleI let with Stonehouse Lettings for around 5 years and overall they were a good letting agent to deal with. They had a reasonably good system for reporting maintenance and if anything needed chased up you just had to speak with them and they were receptive. The process for inspection visits was easy and quick and the staff were able to accommodate changes of date to work around when I was available. The staff were always friendly and polite and tried their best to help even in difficult situations. Our boiler gave up during the Christmas period and the team drove out to the property with heaters as the engineer couldn't fix it there and then. The team at Stonehouse were also supportive of you as a tenant as much as they were there for the landlord and would try and encourage improvements to the property, whether the landlord takes that on board is another matter but at least they tried. I wouldn't hesitate to use Stonehouse again if I was in the area.

TrustpilotHelpful Staff
I’ve recently signed a lease with DJ Alexander and had such a positive experience with the staff involved in the process. Laura Mctaggart helped us with the reference and credit checks and was an excellent support throughout. It was so helpful having her at the end of the phone whenever we needed advice or solutions to the issues we came across. She was professional, proactive, reassuring and a great help. Thank you Laura!

I recently secured an accommodation through the help of Caitlin Butler and Harry Perkins. I must commend these two staff of DJ Alexander for their tremendous level of professionalism and empathy. They were both spot on and exuded so much level of honesty in my interactions with them. Would recommend them any time, any day.

We bought a property listed under DJ Alexander in Edinburgh and since the sellers were in another country as we, the buyers were - we still had our niece view it for us before sales agreement was made. The agreement said “all furniture, shed and such included”. CAVIOT EMPTORS! The estate agent allowed dining table and chairs, coffee table, bed frames, garden table chairs, lawnmower, hedge trimmer and even the bin shed be taken from the property between the viewing and final sale date! When contacted - they said sorry- seller is in Greece! NEVER use DJ Alexander for sales!

We are sorry to hear about the misunderstanding between the seller and his friend who removed extra items from the property. Unfortunately, we were not made aware of this either. However glad to hear that through the solicitors, this has been settled. We would like to thank you for purchasing through DJ Alexander and wishing you many happy memories in your new home.

TrustpilotAt 1st
At 1st, i was a bit suspicious of renting with DJ Alexanders with the negative comments I have seen. Trying to get a viewing was difficult and i had a few appointments cancelled on the day. When i got the viewing the Property Manager Imran, explained to me why they were cancelled which is understandable. (If the LET has been agreed there is no point of continuing with the viewing.) I applied for a few properties and some I got rejected which was no part of DJ Alexander's, it was this the landlord's decision. After being accepted by a property, I have successfully moved in.When the key handover/ Check-in happened, Imran showed me how to use the heating systems and which right department to contact if there were any issues.
