They were renting flats at the same time that they were trying to sell them. You will loose your time and money. Avoid them.

You'd better watch out, these guys will abuse their power and scam deposits off you, and leave you in damp accommodation. Standard a hole landlords.

The problem in my flat remained a problem with no resolution or reply’s to me until the day I left. Paid heavily by the landlord to manage the house yet rather pocketed the money I imagine.

Impolite over the phone for viewing appointments +another time I had a viewing and called me literally when I was heading there to cancel , they probably think they are the only agency in Edinburgh. Thank god they are not. Avoid!

In a letter addressed to me, a wrong name is cited. The letter explains why twice the rent has been drawn, instead only once. The letter further is suggestive of the error being created by me. Outrageous.

Woeful! Tried to rent a flat, 2 emails, 3 phone calls - nothing ever happened. Would take number and not call back. We will email you (but you don't have my email - oh yeah) no email ever arrived. Mindboggling. Imagine you had a mortgage to pay on your BTL, and someone is trying to rent from you - these utter jokers just ignore, and actively anti-rent. Please if you need any property services, I have a pet rock, use it instead, and avoid at all cost. ** Edit ** when responding to this review - of which they were pretty fast, they could not even get my name right, not sure who Andrew was/is probably another 'customer'NegativeResponsiveness

Very good customer service experience- Laura McTaggart was very helpful when it came to getting paper work sorted on time. She answered all my stressed out emails with a phone call which was really reassuring and took a lot of the tension out of the move. Thanks

Called over 20x. No one has ever picked up the phone. Seem to have some great properties but can not get in touch with them. Very rigid for 9-5 which can not work for anyone who has a day job. Once I was in touch service was good and professional

Maintenance is a big issue for DJ Alexander, I’m having problems with my microwave since 28/04 (3 weeks) without any idea when it will be fixed. That said, I don’t recommend based on the service level I’m getting so far.

Total professionals at what they do. From placing for sale to an offer being received, three days. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to advertise your Property.
