I’m the mother in law of the tenants- met Dan at the viewing- had a few complications with a prior viewing -and Dan was so sympathetic towards our urgent need to acquire a tenancy- he just took all the stress off our plate and really tried his best to help us get the property. Communication was really top tier on Dans part. Even though there were a few technical hitches from the online checks delts- the john shepherd Sutton cold field branch really standout out compared to the the city centre branch- I’m sure my son inlaw will leave you a review to show his appreciation- but I had to leave mine too- because Dan- you were so welcoming and reassuring on our viewing on that boiling hot day! Thank you. πŸ™ Roop.

Landlords: Avoid and go elsewhere

As a landlord, I'm not quite sure what I was paying them for...they certainly found new and inventive ways to squeeze cash out of me whenever they could - despite opting out of rent guard they still charged me for it, plus an exorbitant fee when my tenants moved out for a check out they took ages to sort and were never quite sure they'd done. Each month (it seemed) I would be bombarded by marketing and emails telling me I need to pay for xyz which were a requirement for landlords...not all were. The tenants left the house in a disgusting state which cost me both money and personal time to sort. So the annual house inspections were another waste of time as 9 years of overgrown garden and jungle state driveway caused damage, alongside the hideousness of an inside rarely if ever cleaned and stinking of cat pee. Don't get me started on the Β£250 float they insisted on grabbing from me and sitting on for anything which needed doing (just take it out of the rent monies) and the time the oven broke and the tenant gave up trying to tell agents and I'd had a new one bought and installed and in operation for 10 days before the agent emailed me to say it was broken and they would buy one out of the float.... Renewing the tenancy always seemed to cost an arm and a leg too....again, they never actually did anything, but still seemed to make me pay a lot for it. My previous estate agent was bought out by this company, so they were never my choice. I've gone down the Open Rent route now and certainly could not, with any form of conscience, recommend them to other landlords.
