You can't find better than simply let anywhere in UK! I'm with simply let for 10 years, start from 1bed flat , now having 4bed house , THANK YOU JACKY ❤ , 5 star it's not enough , I give simply let 10 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Ash, yes you and your family are a great example of showing how Simply Let would rather move you than lose you. We always give first priority on homes that become vacant to existing tenants and yes we have watched you move as your family grew from a 1 bed to a 4 bed. You are model tenants and appreciated!

We were desperate to find a pet friendly property and simply let was the only place that would help us! We've been with simply let now for almost a whole year and it's been a breeze. Helpful and easy to talk to about any issues, approachable and kind.
Approachable is what we aim for always as we care and we know if people feel comfortable in talking to us then we can help and guide you through every aspect of your tenancy so you have a good experience. Pets we welcome in suitable properties and we have loads of super pet owners. Just now we even have a shared house that takes a cat! Thanks for taking time to wrote this to help others see that we really care! Jacky

I never ever though that I could have that good experience with letting agency. Every single person from Simply Let LTD. is absolutely lovely, supportive and helpful. I was in very difficult situation when I tried to rent the property and Simply Let helped me a lot. In 100% I can recommend Simply Let to anyone. Thank you guys again!!
We try to take everyone on their merit taking into account personal circumstances and life history as well as the standard vetting information we need, and we pride ourselves on a caring yet professional approach and your review tells me my whole team did a great job! I hope this review will help others understand why we are different so thankyou for taking the time to write it! Jacky

Really good customer service from Vicky at Manning Stainton in Pudsey. Answered all our questions and went above and beyond to get our purchase through. Thank you!
Thanks James
5/5
As a first time buyer it can be quite daunting as the process begins understanding all the different steps we need to take. Vicky has been very helpful in linking us up with a mortgage service and solicitor service via Manning Stainton which has taken the stress out of calling around for quotes. Vicky also provided us with the opportunity to have a ID check locallly and advised on the next steps in regard to buying the property. She has been friendly and informative throughout.
Great to read your comments about how Vicky helped during your experience of buying your first home

We cannot praise Leah Hamblin enough. She has helped us every step of the way and continues to do so. She is so helpful and efficient, answering all phone calls and replying to emails promptly. Leah has helped us with any queries we have and supported us whenever we've needed it. We honestly could not have asked for a better person to help us during this challenging time in our lives. We are also thankful to Andrew Robinson for his sound advice, and who has helped us during valuation and putting our house on the market exceptionally fast. Joanne & Dianne are very hard-working too, and we are thankful to them for their dedication in keeping us up-to-date in any new developments, 7 days a week.
Thanks for taking the time to leave this review about your experience with our Morley team. It's great to hear how Leah and the team worked hard and kept you up to date

Terrible service from MS Morley. Andrew the Manager came to put our house on the market. Said a figure for it, we thought that was too high to which he promised that if our house was under valued he could fight it because ‘he sells loads of homes that come under valued and he uses variables of local houses to fight and win.’ House got under valued by 15%. No one couldn’t care about challenging the valuation. The after sales lady (who was the only decent person from this company) stated ‘they never challenge a valuation so I don’t know why they said that.’ We & and the buyer had to meet in the middle as we needed to act quick on our house sale in fear of losing our dream house. MS get their customers by lying. That’s what happened here. MS also over charged us, they charged their fee at the original selling price, not the price of the final sale. Complained to the Managing Director about the lies from Andrew and the over charge to which he denied both after an ‘investigation’ Took our complaint to the Ombudsman who decided in our favour and confirmed we had been over charged and agreed that the variables had never been challenged! Terrible customer service from day one, rude teams from branch up to top bosses. Never using again!
Really sorry to read this review, especially having now had the result of the Ombudsman review that made an award which was a fraction of what you claimed you were owed. In the end you achieved a price, once our team renegotiated with your buyer, of 96% of your asking price which still broke precedent for a house of that sort within the area. As a family owned and run business and whilst we don’t always get things exactly right we are always honest and straightforward in our approach. We are truly sorry if the service you received from Manning Stainton was not as expected but are satisfied that we can now draw a line under this. Wishing you all the best in your new home. Mark Manning

We dealt with Lucy from the start of our buying journey in January. She was honest and professional throughout the process and she always stayed in touch to keep us updated. It was quite a long process overall from acceptance to exchange and Lucy kept us informed throughout, keeping in regular contact both on email and over the phone. Would highly recommend. Many thanks!
Thanks for your comments Sandy

Terrific service in re-letting our property from start to finish. Quickly re-listed and let 2 months before our current tenants move out. Great job John Sheader and team-true professionals.

The worst agents in Leeds, Does not respond to emails, booking a viewing with them is such a waste of time. They make booking a viewing necessarily over complicated and difficult unlike other agencies who keep the process simple and straightforward. they ask you to fill forms after forms.. Ask you certain questions and say (we'll check with the landlord and get back to you).. LIARS!, they never get back to you. Some of their rental properties can remain their site and other sites zoopla despite being let agreed. Why mislead people for. Such incompetent and unreasonable fools!
