We had a wonderful experience working with Sana during our property search. From the very first viewing, she was incredibly polite, professional, and attentive to our needs. Sana took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for and made sure every property she showed us aligned with our preferences.

GoogleDO NOT GO WITH THIS AGENCY! You will save yourself a lot of stress if you go elsewhere!
Also be weary of agents that may not inform you at a viewing that Very Nice Homes are the actual agents managing the property until you pay a holding desposit. That is what happened to me.
Cannot be trusted. Go elsewhere!NegativeProfessionalism

Very disappointing. No support or responsibility for landlords whatsoever. Please do not use them as your letting agents. Lost a lot of personal documents even though they are βstored in internal databaseβ and wrecked the house.

GoogleIf you rent from this agency be rest assured you will have issue with your deposit. They will do all they can to bite your money. Hike prices of items they want to replace and charge your exorbitant fee for cleaning.
I asked for bed invoice they wanted to replace and I was sent a forged piece of document claiming they bought the bed.
I wonβt recommend you renting from this agency if you love your time and doesnβt want to deal with dodgy company. π
Kelly Β· 25 October 2023
Agent replied Β· 24 October 2024
Hi Kelly
Unless your review is under a different name, it doesn't appear that we have someone with the name of Kelly Ololo as a previous tenant with us. Your accusations of forging a document and charging exorbitant fees are baseless and false.
When a tenant gives notice to leave a property, we confirm acceptance of their notice in writing and include detailed instructions on leaving the room so as to avoid any deductions to the deposit. When the room is returned, we conduct a comprehensive move out inventory which is compared with the move in inventory. Any damages and cleaning required will of course be chargeable and we will communicate this with the tenant. Photographic and video evidence are provided as proof of the charges when requested and should a dispute be raised, it will be dealt with in due process.
Regards
Very Nice Homes

GoogleHad a very bad experience. DO NOT go ahead with this agency. They will take a deposit and tell you that they will refund it to you if you don't go ahead with the property. after getting the holding deposit, they change the rent and take down the advert so there is no proof for you. If you happen to contact them, keep all phone recordings and also pictures of the advertisement.
They do not accept any mistakes from their end and will tell you to read terms and conditions which they hide somewhere and never talk about while taking your money. So, I've lost my money because of a mistake the so called ' very nice homes' has made.
AVOID! DO NOT GO AHEAD WITH THEM!
Aakash Β· 25 October 2023

Hi Aakash
Prospective tenants are made aware of any tenancy fees and the standard process from the onset of all communications. All information regarding rent and deposit is also listed clearly on our application page www.verynicehomes.co.uk/apply and applicants can then decide whether to continue to use our services.
By proceeding to submit the application form, the applicant agrees that they've read all the terms and conditions before proceeding.
As stated on the application terms, if the application is unsuccessful, the holding deposit will be returned. If the applicant decides to withdraw from the process, the holding deposit will not be refunded.
We work very hard to make sure the process goes smoothly from the viewing throughout the application stage and have maintained professionalism and clarified the above to you several times in our communication.
Kind regards

GooglePlease save your money and do not go with this agency. They took my money as deposit and then changed all the rental calculations : asking for more money thrn advertised!!. When i finally decided to withdraw my application, they did not returned my deposit!!. Playing the old "terms and conditions" trick. If you are proceeding please keep all audio recording of the phone calls because in the end they deny and manupulate everything!!!!.
(Also the way you guys stop responding to my messages: NO explanation will be entertained here)!!!. I have lost 126 pound today!!!

GoogleThe people inside the agency aren't friendly. I lived in the property for 6months with barely any Wi-Fi as they refused to upgrade, although my rent covered wi-fi. They were also not helpful and treat younger people poorly. Wasn't taken seriously and a lot of times my emails were ignored and not even looked at. When people in the property had COVID-19 they failed to let me know and even the heating didn't always work well. There would be times where the headlock at the door wouldn't work and this would be out of hours so I ended up stranded outside, I also found the door unlocked after views which is also a big danger and I had valuable things in my room.NegativeProfessionalism

Hi Maria
Sorry to receive your feedback. First of all, we take pride as a team to be friendly and approachable whilst maintaining a professional conduct to all our customers. Any communication that youβve raised with a member of staff have been replied in a timely manner, we have evidence of this. We treat all our customers with respect and without prejudiced.
There was one incident with the front door locks that didnβt work and it was after office hours, however a member of maintenance attended within the hour to sort it out. We try our best to see to maintenance and repairs promptly and there are no outstanding issues at this property.
Regarding Covid-19 and housemates affected by it, we communicate promptly to housemates when we are informed - again we have evidence of this.
The broadband was recently upgraded and the service provider has confirmed that there are no connectivity issues.
No viewings have been conducted in your room. You have only asked us to start carrying out viewings on your room today. Besides, all room doors are coded which means when you close the door, you need to enter a code to access the room. This is the same with the front door, you will need a code to enter when the door closes. This is a security measure and will make it impossible for doors to be unlocked.
Regards
Very Nice Homes

They told us we had to leave as property was being refurbed. however they stopped our cleaning whic we were still paying for they also locked up one of the bathrooms as it needed repair however they didn't reduce our rent as they should of. they then proceeded to charge me my entire deposit and ask for an extra Β£196 for new carpet and to paint walls, to fix a door, to clean up 1 chair and 1 box i Had left on the roof. since i left the flat they have ignored all my messages and calls to them.

Hi Alex
In response to your feedback:
1. The Landlord is planning to carry our refurbishment works to the property and due to the extent of the works and the inconvenience it would cause, we advised tenants that it would not be suitable for tenants to be residing at the property.
2. Unfortunately bathroom requires extensive works and it would not be feasible to carry out intermediary remedial works, therefore we advised the remaining tenants of this. There is still one functional bathroom to share with 3 other housemates.
3. The communal clean to the property has not stopped and we did inform you that the cleaner continues to attend the property.
4. At the end of your tenancy, the room should be returned in βas goodβ condition as when you received it, apart to general wear and tear. We have a comprehensive move-in and move-out inventory that is compared and assessed in detailed. The fact that the property is being refurbished does not diminish your responsibility to return the room in a worst condition to when you received it. You were provided with photographic evidence for all the charges to your deposit which you can contest, however you have decided to pay this in full.
5. You have not been ignored, we have responded to your communications and have evidence of this.
We are sorry and disappointed to receive your negative review, nevertheless, we wish you well.
Kind regards
