Trustpilot5* All Round Service
I am a landlord of multiple properties and Laura has recently been assigned as my Property Manager. Nothing is ever too much. Whether it be rental statements or maintenance issues, Laura is always there to help. I couldn’t recommend Martin & Co enough from their lettings team all the way through to their amazing Property Management department. 5* service all round! Keep up the good work!

GoogleLaura has been ever so helpful throughout the entire house search process. We came in with exactly what we wanted and she made it happen constantly re-assuring us and remaining in frequent contact with us. We felt supported throughout the entire journey and her consistency with contacting the required teams for us made things run smoothly as we got the entire process done in less than a week! :)

TrustpilotAvoid This Scam agency -A Landlord's Experience with Mismanagement and Deception
I urge you to avoid this agency if you’re considering renting your property. Here are the issues I faced:
1. Severe Undervaluation: They drastically undervalued my property to secure an easy income, ignoring its true market value.
2. Profit-Driven Tenant Selection: Despite multiple interested tenants, they selected a tenant who paid 12 months' rent in advance, allowing them to invest the money in their personal or family-run business accounts for their benefit without consulting me.
3. Delayed Payments: Even with 12 months' rent in their account, they consistently made late monthly payments, forcing me to chase them for my money.
4. Extortionate Maintenance Fees: Their maintenance charges were exorbitant, often double what a typical maintenance person would charge.
5. Excessive Transfer Fees: After deducting the first month's rent as a tenant-finding fee, they charged over £140 monthly just to transfer rent from their account to mine.
6. Rude and Unresponsive Staff and Manager: The branch manager and staff were extremely rude and unresponsive to my complaints and emails, treating me as if I worked for them.
7. Greedy and awful with extending the contract : They approached the tenant for another 12 months' rent in advance without consulting me, ignoring my decision on whether I wanted to rent my property or increase the rent.
8. Delayed Release of Tenant's Deposit: Despite my instruction to release the tenant's deposit in full, they delayed the process and still have not paid them their deposit.
9. Trespassing Post-Contact : Even after their contract ended and I terminated their services, explicitly instructing them not to enter my property, they trespassed, causing significant distress.
Martin & Co Harborne offers nothing but fraud and stress to both landlords and tenants. This agency consistently disrespected my authority as a landlord and pursued their interests at my expense. Avoid them to prevent similar issues and stress.
