We were first-time buyers

We were first-time buyers, so buying our first property was a big and sometimes quite stressful experience for us. From the very beginning right through to the end, Mehul was there to help us and guide us whenever we needed him.

Thank you so much, Jenish, for taking the time to share such lovely feedback. We're really pleased to hear that Mehul was able to support you throughout your first property purchase. Buying for the first time can feel like a lot, so it's great to know his patience and clear explanations helped make the process easier. And please don't worry about asking too many questions, that's exactly what he's there for! We'll be sure to pass your kind words on to Mehul. He'll be delighted to read them. Thank you again for your recommendation and for choosing Oyster Properties. We wish you every happiness in your new home! Kind regards, The Oyster Properties Team

Excellent service from Oyster

My experience with Oyster has been good; they managed both my lettings and sale, and I received good service. Special thanks to Mehul Dhum for overseeing the sale process proactively and keeping me updated throughout.

Don't trust anyone there with your time. They will pretty much leave you homeless and not answer your calls after taking your holding deposit. To clarify, they won't take your money as thats illegal but Oyster has no issues leaving you stranded and sweating while you have no place to stay. Delays happen but they will leave you in the dark about this for a good number of days while you call desperately everyday. I have never seen such a lack of care let alone professionalism. Let me be your cautionary tale. Dealing with these guys will make you stomach hurt. Treat yourself kindly and avoid them. Updated the review post move in. Communication slightly improved towards the end but the overall experience was still terrible and anxiety inducing. Will update again in a few months after seeing how tenants are treated.

Oyster Properties is the most disorganised inept company I've ever had to deal with. We were served an eviction notice (section 21) after our landlady sold our property (which we knew about in advance and the landlady was nothing but excellent at dealing with the situation and we are grateful for her communication and understanding). After receiving the notice and telling Oyster we were leaving, 2 weeks later we asked them for a reference for our new property and the response was "oh are you moving, you need to tell us and give us notice". Clearly this lot don't talk to each other! Then after vacating the property and being given our full deposit back, they began to chase us for the next month’s rent! I explained the first time on the phone that we had left the property, however I was then contacted by the same person 2 times after that chasing rent after we'd left!!!! On top of that, I was then contacted by them several times for a property inspection despite telling them we'd left! This lot couldn't organise a booze up in a brewery, and to top it all off, they allowed us to sign a 1 year contract on the property when we first moved in despite knowing the property was actually on the market with a different estate agents at the time. Legal action pending there! Avoid this circus at all costs, none of their staff have a clue and don't communicate between themselves.

Dear Oliver Gray, Thank you for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear about the frustrations you experienced during and following your tenancy. We appreciate how stressful moving home can be, particularly when circumstances surrounding a property change. We are especially sorry to hear that you received repeated communications regarding rent and property inspections after you had already informed us that you had vacated. We understand why this would have been frustrating and concerning. Clear communication and accurate record-keeping between our teams are extremely important to us, and we recognise from your feedback that there were areas where our communication and internal coordination did not meet the standard we expect. Regarding the other matters raised in your review, including the tenancy and legal concerns, we are unable to comment on individual circumstances publicly. However, we would be happy to review the matter in full with you directly. We take your feedback seriously and will use it constructively to review our processes and improve the service we provide to our tenants. Best regards, The Oyster Properties Team

Yadush is absolutely horrible!!! We were given the property in poor condition, including lights that were already broken/not working when we moved in. Despite this, we are now being charged for replacing the lights when they were never working in the first place. We have also been charged £60+ for cleaning a couple of water marks on a tap, despite the property having been professionally cleaned before we left. This feels completely unreasonable and disproportionate. It is incredibly frustrating to be charged for issues that were pre-existing and for such minor marks after leaving the property professionally cleaned.

Dee · 8 August 2026 · Oyster Properties Stanmore

Agent replied · 22 August 2026

Dear Dee, Thank you for taking the time to write this review. While we appreciate all feedback, it is unfortunate that your review omits several key facts that provide important context to the issues raised. At the start of your tenancy, the inventory records show that the property was presented in a clean condition and that all of the lights throughout the property were in working order. We have photographic evidence to support this, and this was referenced during the email and WhatsApp correspondence between yourself and Yadush. Yadush also took the time to provide you with guidance outlining a tenant's responsibilities during a tenancy, including the replacement of non-working light bulbs. It is therefore disappointing that your review continues to state that the lights were not working when you moved in, despite the inventory evidence and this having already been discussed with you. With regard to the cleaning, prior to carrying out the check-out inspection, Yadush attended the property with a prospective tenant who happened to be a professional industrial cleaner by trade. In her professional opinion, the property had not been cleaned to a professional standard, commenting on the condition of the shower screen before the inspection had even begun. During the subsequent check-out inspection, Yadush also identified additional areas requiring attention, including water marks, limescale build-up and appliances that had not been cleaned thoroughly. Ordinarily, where a property has not been returned in the required condition, a professional cleaning charge would be applicable. However, as you advised that you had already arranged a professional clean, Yadush accepted your explanation and, rather than applying the £220 professional cleaning charge, gave you the opportunity to arrange remedial cleaning yourself. This was done as a gesture of goodwill and to minimise any cost to you. Ultimately, no professional cleaning charge was applied. The only charge that remained related to the replacement of four non-working light bulbs, which fall within a tenant's responsibilities during a tenancy. Yadush also offered you the opportunity to have your own cleaner or contractor replace the bulbs during the remedial visit so that this cost could be avoided entirely. Our role is to assess the condition of a property fairly and objectively, using the inventory report, photographic evidence and the condition found at check-out. We are therefore disappointed that your review chooses to criticise a member of staff personally, despite the efforts made to resolve matters reasonably and reduce the costs that would otherwise have been payable. We wish you all the best in your future home. Kind Regards, Oyster Properties

Worst letting experience I have had. I viewed two properties through this agency. I gave an immediate yes for one of them and emailed my offer straight away. After that, there was no proper response, no update and no reply to my emails. I had to constantly chase the team myself. Communication was extremely poor. Every time I called, either the relevant person was unavailable or nobody could give me a clear answer. The person who attended one of the viewings did not even know how to open the property door and could not answer basic questions about the property. A significant amount of my time was wasted during the viewing. After a lot of chasing, I finally managed to speak to the right person, only to be told that the property had already been given to someone else. There was no email update, no opportunity to negotiate and no clear communication before the decision was made. Based on my experience, the service showed zero professionalism, poor organisation and a complete lack of communication. I would not recommend this agency.

Dear Pankaj, Thank you for taking the time to share such detailed feedback. We are sorry to hear that your experience with our team was disappointing and that you felt you had to repeatedly chase for updates. We understand how frustrating it can be to express immediate interest in a property and then not receive clear or timely communication. We also regret that your experience during the viewing did not meet the standard of service you expected. We appreciate that clear communication, good preparation and keeping applicants informed are important parts of the service we aim to provide. Your comments have been taken seriously and will be shared with the relevant teams so that we can review our processes and identify where improvements can be made. We are sorry that on this occasion we did not provide the level of service you expected. We value your feedback and will use it constructively to improve the experience for our future applicants.
