GoogleI’ve rent from letting agents for about 6 years in cardiff, these guys by far are the best i’ve dealt with….
from the viewing, to picking up the keys and eventually leaving the property - these guys were super respectful, helpful and made the process of leaving really easy - which is a lot more than other letting agents have done for me.
mainly dealt with Brennan who is a top guy, but the other staff i spoke to were just as good.
top stuff guys - highly recommend.

GoogleSam and Katie were both absolutely top drawer! The entire process from start to finish was totally seamless (and we even had a few laughs along the way!).
Flat Homes are a very professional outfit and having just moved into one their properties on a 12-month term, I feel confident that I am in very good hands.
Thank you guys and all the best,
Ian

GoogleWe rented our home through FlatHomes and had an excellent experience throughout the entire tenancy. From the very beginning, the team was supportive, responsive and easy to communicate with. Any questions or issues were handled quickly and professionally, which made living in the property completely stress-free.
What really stood out was their support not just at the start, but all the way through to the checkout. They guided us clearly through the process, were fair and transparent, and made the move-out experience smooth and straightforward.
Overall, we felt genuinely looked after from start to finish. We highly recommend FlatHomes to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive team to rent from.

GoogleHad an amazing experience since the first day I called FlatHomes. I had been looking for property to rent in Cardiff for a while and had been calling different agents but it was unique with FlatHomes from the first call. So personalised and thoughtful. The viewing was arranged on the same day, I did not have to wait and correspondence for the viewings was clear and timely with multiple team members making sure that all is ok. Upon securing the home, the team has been supportive and resourceful all through the process making it an easy process going through tenancy references, registrations and contracting. Great team and special shout to Sam (Samantha), keep the good working going and connecting people with homes they love hustle free :-).

Google"Stay as far away as possible from these unprofessional letting agents"
I was moving into my first flat in the city and unfortunately chose a Flat Homes apartment. The agents handed over an absolutely filthy apartment to me. There were used socks, used tissues, food residue strewn across the floor (see pictures). The floor was very sticky and oven was atrocious. I had to call and follow up with them repeatedly on move-in day to get the apartment cleaned again. I had to remind numerous times for a cleaning staff to show up and supervise them myself as they tried to do the bare minimum. In order to make the apartment liveable I had to clean by myself throughout the week.
The horrors on my move-in day didn't end there. During my handover process and in the tenancy agreement, I was assured that postpaid utility connections were in place. At 10 pm in the night, my power got disconnected. With no power and no idea what's wrong, I called their emergency phone numbers but no one picked up. It was a Friday night and bank holiday weekend, and with no response I had to fend for myself. I had to wake up my neighbours, and they were kind enough to inform me that it was a pre-paid meter (tenancy agreement says otherwise) and helped recharge the meter with an emergency balance.
The agents were "kind" enough to call back after my multiple tries to their "emergency" number "after" the long weekend - 3 days after I was left without power, they called me and had the audacity to deny that they did anything wrong. I had to go to their office and show them written proof of documents to make them accept that they had indeed told me the electricity connection was postpaid billing.
The process while leaving the apartment was thankfully much smoother. My deposit refund was processed pretty quickly. They charged very high remarketing fees citing clauses in the agreement, when they themselves failed to follow through so many. In spite of giving me a filthy apartment to move into, they had the cheek to charge me £90 cleaning fee, which I paid. By this time I had lost the will to fight and simply wanted to be done with them.
Please stay away from these agents. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone and will strongly advise against engaging with them.
Update - the team contacted me after my review telling that they will investigate the matter. But, other than doing some lip service of it was his mistake or her mistake, no tangible outcomes came out of their "investigation".

GoogleThey are not shared bathrooms but tiny shower rooms. Room 2 is currently vacant & is advertised as double glazed. It isn't. Rotten double doors & perspex windows at the top. The pipe outside the room door outside is cracked and leaks. There is also a very substandard repair done by the outside drain after the ground collapsed. If i could give no stars i would. Very badly managed. Property in a poor state of repair. Safety issues and urgent repairs ignored. Charge of £1 to use the cooker and washing machine. Overcrowding no problem. Electric cards are a money making rip off. Property is full of damp and mould including showers! Top floor shower room ceiling is covered in mould. Property not cleaned regularly. The property is dirty. Window cleaners do not exist. Kitchen fire door doesn't close properly. The outside wall is falling apart. There are mice in the property and have been for years. The bins are filthy and smell. The garden is a mess and as for the central heating you won't be seeing that on much!! Never ending heating issues because the landlady won't spend money. Come see for yourself at 17 Howard Gardens Adamsdown Cardiff. You also have 2 occupants living in Room 3 which is illegal!! You are ignorant to the law always. 1 person to a room only. If you aren't happy with my comments that's because you don't want the truth known!!

GoogleMe and my fiancé were looking to have our first flat together, and while other estate agents let us down. Flat Homes did everything they could to secure us a flat, and any/all issues we addressed were sorted straight away. Their communication is excellent, and we are extremely happy with how well they have looked after us since moving in. Cannot fault their efforts and the company owner should be very proud of his team for the amazing service they have provided. Special mention to Celia, Samantha, Amanda, and Gareth. I’m sure there are others who are also doing amazing work, but these are the ones we have dealt with the most and I sincerely thank them all for making our first home together a wonderful experience ~

GoogleAfter looking for a property for over 4 weeks I was struggling to find the time to go to a viewing during work. I called FlatHomes and spoke to Jack who managed to set up a viewing straight away for me on the weekend. Jack and Gareth made the process really simple for me from start to finish, and they even helped me on Friday evening to secure the property. Jack explained everything really clearly and made the entire process quick and easy for me. They are also very polite and helpful. 10/10 all round!

GoogleI recently concluded my tenancy with Flat Homes and I must say, it has been a good experience from start to finish.
The staff at Flat Homes have been consistently helpful and responsive. Every interaction was handled professionally, making the entire process seamless.
The property was in good condition upon move-in, with no issues to report.
Although I had a few minor repairs needed during my tenancy, they were all resolved within a reasonable timeframe.
I was always well-informed through both emails and letters whenever there was something that required my attention.
The property I rented is well-located, and the rent is quite fair when compared to the market rates.
In summary, I would recommend Flat Homes to anyone looking for a hassle-free and positive rental experience.

GoogleRecently concluded my tenancy with them, I can only say one thing “ONE OF THE WORST AGENCY IN CARDIFF CITY “
My advice to those who choosing FlatHomes , please take as many photos if you find something wrong, because at the end they will simply take all your deposits and that’s the only investment they are putting back on that property.
They were well behaved throughout the tenancy period and reassured us for everything but unfortunately at the last day I paid for everything.

Hi Dipin, we are disappointed to read this review after recently having a 5 star review from you. Thank you for acknowledging things went well during the contract period. We would always encourage all tenants to take plenty of photographs to add to the ones that are provided in our in-going inventory report. As for deposit deductions, its not true that you paid for everything, the landlord picked up over 50% of the redecoration costs, your charges were made of redecoration of 1 room, cleaning of another and an outstanding rental balance - all of which was agreed by yourself via the deposit scheme and with you receiving a large proportion of your deposit back.

If we needed any repairs etc Flathomes sorted it at their earliest convenience.
