GoogleWe can’t open the window in our bedroom since the beginning ( January 2020 ). They told us that will be shorted before move in but nothing chance. It was really hard on the lockdown to have one of our three windows close. We call them, sent email, sentó to the Christchurch office... but we didn’t have any answer yet.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality

GoogleLeaders have been exceptional with us as a family, after giving up hope on ever finding our dream home, Kennedy and Russel came to our rescue. Nothing has been too much trouble and communication has been clear and consistent! We can’t thank them enough.

GoogleVery pleasant and helpful team at Christchurch. I have been using the branch for letting since way before Leaders took over and apart from head office interfering with the smooth local running, it has all gone very well and the team at Christchurch, over the years, have done their utmost to make me happy and dealt with any problems with tenants very professionally.

GoogleDO NOT USE THIS AGENCY, YOU WILL REGRET IT - THEY ARE USELESS! THIS WILL BE THE WORST DECISION YOU MAKE.
I have allowed this agent 6 months to improve before writing this bad review, but if anything, things have gotten worse.
My mother-in-law (in her 80s) has a property being let out with this agency since June 2020 and Leaders have been dreadful - they are not fulfilling their basic contractual obligations and despite our numerous attempts to contact them (emails/calls several times a week), they very rarely respond (1 in every 8 contacts) and even when they do there is no resolution/they can't help because someone else is dealing with it/a new property manager is looking after our property! I certainly wouldn't have a job if I treated my customers like this.
To give you an idea of their failings: they didn't notify the utilities that the property had been let even though they said they had we received a bill 3 months after chasing for money (mother-in-law sorted it directly in the end), no inspections on the property mid contract, no inventory at the beginning of the contract despite charging us for it, when they've organised electrical work for a new shower but no earthing has been done (standard practice and agreed to) they refuse to speak to the contractor to get it fixed and expect us to pay another electrician to fix it, we are still waiting for a full itemised bill for some electrical work that needs to be done - 4 chases and so far nothing - this is 6 weeks so far, every income payment bar the first one (which was on time because it needed to be paid upfront) has been late by 3-4 weeks yet we receive no notification we just don't receive the money, we've just been told that the income for this month’s money is in reserve ledger but they can't tell us why (there's nothing outstanding on our account), we are now on our 4th property manager who still seems to have no idea about any of the issues or seems to be remotely bothered by our account at all yet they are happy to have our income, and finally, we gave the agent notice 30th November and at the time of writing 23rd December have STILL not had written confirmation that the tenant has been told (despite being told to give notice on 1st December), that Leaders have acknowledged this, and that the agreed date of vacation (end of April) is as agreed in November!
My mother-in-law is in her 80s and it is so stressful for her (she's in tears every week) particularly as she has the stress of looking after my disabled Father-in-law in a pandemic. I’ve tried to help but they won’t answer me either, so it must be incompetence.
I cannot believe a company can treat one of their customers so appallingly and get away with it...it may be because my in-laws are old, and Leaders staff are incompetent but seriously, do not use this agent you will just end up regretting it and not getting anything done, your property may also be at risk (because it’s not being managed or checked on), they are just raking in the money for no work! If I could give a negative review (in terms of stars) I would.
Leaders will also not even notice this negative review to fix anything, so the next steps in the new year is to report them. This is the first negative review I've written for several years but their behaviour towards one of their so-called valued clients is appalling and I felt I had to share this review to warn others. I am absolutely disgusted by their behaviour!
Please save yourself the stress and worry and find yourself a better agent because we certainly will be!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleUnprofessional company, did not turn up to a booked appointment, I had to call to them to find out where they were only to be told the place had been let and no one bothered to call me, people take time out of there working days to go to appointments! I would recommend finding another agency.
