GoogleProcedures desperately need putting in place. Nice people to talk to and have rented with Leaders for 5 years. Over the years though I have lost count of the number of times I have been sent forms that are incorrect or got the wrong information on or been constantly asked for information that I have already provided.

GoogleWhilst we had a few hiccups at the start moving in (which to be fair, were mostly on our end) overall Leaders provided us with a prompt service, replied and resolves many of our queries, and were quick and easy to work with during the check-out process as well. Tracey Lewis was very helpful throughout this, and helped to organize many of the services which we needed. Thanks again!

They ensured the property was in excellent condition. Overall, their professionalism and customer service have met my expectations. Thank you.

GoogleI was warned that Leaders can be 'sharky'.
I had a bit of a 'mare with them.
They failed to serve me notice to move out (I figure they delivered to the next door building, as my building does not have a flat 6 which they referred to)
When I was disputing the cleaning fee they added £60 charge for a renewal fee 4 years prior. I'm pretty sure I paid it and that they would have chased me at the time, not 4 years later...

GoogleI have had a very poor experience with Leaders, Western Road. They advertised a property, I responded straight away by email and phone (left multiple messages), received no response for 1.5 weeks. Then a viewing was arranged (which took a LOT of effort to chase them), only to be cancelled as I was standing outside the property having driven 1hr 20min to be there and rearranging work for the entire day (and I even emailed them the day before to check it was going ahead, which I had no response to). I have sent my feedback to Leaders directly as well, in an effort to improve their very disappointing customer service.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleWe were in contact with Laura for this central flat, and they had clearly forgotten about the appointment with us. We actually walked to the office to remind them about it.
Not a great start.
The viewing itself felt rushed. But we liked it nonetheless, so by the next day we made an offer. Now.. It took nearly a week for someone to get back to us with an update, missing multiple deadlines (that were given to us by them, I might add) left us chasing with calls and/or emails. Told us to hold off until Friday, one more day, Tuesday and so on.
Once I had enough, it took me 1 minute to go on Google and find out that the letting was already agreed.
If this is not bad customer service, I honestly don't know what is.
For future reference, before updating the website, maybe give an update to potential clients that have been waiting for an answer for days on end.NegativeResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleMoney grabbing cowboys. Avoid at all costs. They'll attempt to charge a full clean against your deposit even if you've had the house and carpets professionally cleaned. Poorly maintained properties without a care for safety- check your smoke alarms (ours had a "replace by" date of 2015 but was still in use in 2019) and the 15 year old fridge freezer was dangerously hot at the back.NegativeQuality, Professionalism, Value

Two months later asking for rent payments as they didnt accept notice and didnt inform us! House in disrepair, carpet bugs and leaking ceiling. Mould, failure to fix things properly. Oh and they dont deal with repairs even tho its stated in contract that they can be contacted in this regard. Avoid agencies, especially this whole company.

GoogleAn unethical company whose business model is levying excess fees and withholding deposits. Moving in was fine, but during our tenancy we would get no help from the agents in contacting the landlord, and moving out was an absolute nightmare. We spent nearly a year in flat with a broken fridge and front window, which were never fixed despite promises. On moving out, I had to leave more than 5 messages for our agent who never returned the calls to discuss the moving out process, then tried to charge us extra fees afterwards for not following instructions never given to us. This is the kind of place that gives letting agents a bad name. I’ve never had such a negative experience with property managers as I did our year with Leaders.

GoogleWhilst our property we have been let is in major need of love and attention as nothing had been cleaned or repaired after the previous tenants had moved out (which is why we have given 2 stars)
Nikki, our property maintenance manager within leaders has gone above and beyond to help us get all the repairs and the deep clean done, she is the diamond in the rough at this company, after we moved in we landed at her feet for help, she has been the only person at leaders who myself and my partner actually trust.
We do hope to rent this property for a very long time and hopefully with more people like Nikki leading the way the companies reputation will get better.

Agent replied · 20 June 2024
Hi Steven we’re saddened to hear that you’ve been unhappy with the condition of the property since moving in, viewings are undertaken as part of the letting process which provide any interested applicants the chance to look at the property and put forward requests for works they wish to be undertaken as part of any offer for the property; we understand on this occasion no works were requested by yourself. It’s disappointing for us that your tenancy hasn’t gotten off to the smooth start we hope for as we always want to offer as much assistance and support as possible, we’re pleased to hear that despite the issues at the property how helpful Nikki has been in resolving them, we’re confident that moving forward she can continue to deliver such a great service and hopefully in doing so is able to restore some faith in us. Should you wish to discuss this further then please contact us on 01344758596. Kind Regards, Leaders
