In my 25+ years experience of letting agents, they have largely all been the same, very nice until they get you in a property and then callous, unreasonable and often unobtainable. Finn's are quite the opposite. They are without doubt the nicest, most caring bunch of letting agents I've ever experienced. Genuine people who somehow have managed to remain human despite working in the property industry. Which letting agent I use has never been a factor when deciding where to rent. Now it will be if I ever need to move again and I wouldn't want to use anyone other than Finn's.

Thank you Mr Motley! You’ve made Lisa and all the Canterbury team (all of us, in fact) feel very proud of the Lettings service we offer. Thank you for taking time to share your experience online, we really appreciate it.

Loved the pics of the property online, but when I called the agent wasn't very nice, felt like she was brushing me off and not interested in helping. I understand the current market is a bit crazy and lots of people after properties to rent and buy, but you never know if that could change... So trying to be courteous and engaging with clients might be advisable. After that experience we've decided to go elsewhere and I don't think we would contact them in the future either. Such a shame as I really wanted to rent the property, but couldn't deal with an agent that came across as condescending.NegativeProfessionalism

We are so sorry to hear you feel this way Ms Mello - we aim to be accommodating and helpful. During our conversation with you, we answered a number of your questions about a property and made arrangements for you to view. You subsequently cancelled the viewing due to work commitments. When you are ready to look at other properties, we would love the chance to put this review behind us and help you in your search for a rental property.

Finn's help us on the rental side. Kate Hadlow is my main contact there and I cannot speak more highly of her efficient, reliable, common sense approach. I always feel confident that I will get an excellent service from her.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

I was the first person to view a rental property with them, I told them I would take the property without a viewing because we wanted it do much, but we were told we had to have a viewing, after the viewing we said yes we love it , we can pay the deposit now, was told she had to let all four of us view the property then they would present it to the landlord, we told them we would do anything to have this property. Received an email telling me they are going with another couple who can put a considerable amount up front, we were never given that option, I have told them I will give a year rental up front. Won't even consider us, seems like someone took a back hander. Shame they didn't come to us , it could have been considerably more. Nice way of working, very unprofessional I think, tried to make a complaint, but they will cover each others backs, making excuses for each other. They won't even pass it along to the landlord for him to have a choice in the matter.NegativeProfessionalism

Our team took care to explain to you the procedures we have in place during this time of huge demand for rental properties. Details of all parties were put to the landlord for selection and the landlords’ decision is final.

We've used Finn's as a letting agent twice. Fair and reasonable.

Do not use the letting side of Finn's. They are not professional, constantly moaning about the landlord. The property I rented should not have been rented out in its condition. The itinerary they did, was not even close to the actual condition of the property. They apparently had it professionally cleaned before moving in, but it was very dirty. On their inspections while I was there, they said it was being kept immaculate and yet they had the nerve to email me on how to clean and what products to use when moving out. On check out she was running her hand on the units etc to see if it was clean because I said I had cleaned it myself. I have rented before with different agents but never been treated so condescending or discourteous until now.

Had the pleasure of dealing with Finn's during the purchase of our new house, they were by far the most straight talking and proactive agent I've come across. Managed the chain very well with regular contact, would recommend to anyone and use again.

Awful company to deal with if you're a tenant. The fees as extortionate! They are the only company that have ever charged me a renewal tenancy contract fee and advising me there was no other option available unless I signed in for a year. Once they see you're happy and settled then the demands to the landlord starts for the rent increases! The highest we had was over £300 a month! Was so glad when I moved away from them.

Amazing estate agent Sarah and demi were the most passionate and efficient girls in a fast and demanding Industry. Very professional and outstanding service. The only estate agent that managed to correctly value our house and due to an incompetent Deal estate agent managed to finally help us move. This estate agent did not receive any commission from us and yet answered over 50 emails. How many other estate agents would do that?
