Thank you James for arranging Abigail to market my rental property. She was very professional and exceeded my expectations. She found tenants for me within a day and responded to my emails promptly. Abigail passed me to Catherine to sort admin and again Catherine was welcoming. Fantastic service and definitely would recommend Moginie James.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

I have had a great experience working with Elli to find a new home for rent. She's very professional and knowledgeable, as well as making the stressful process of house hunting feel less daunting. The process was smooth from enquiry to viewing to offer, and Elli made it so much easier than I've experienced in the past.

Top class! Moginie James Cyncoed really were top class from start to finish in the sale of our house. Everyone we met who works there was super friendly, helpful and always put us first. They managed to sell our house within 1 week, and if that wasn't good enough... when our sale fell through, they sold it in 1 week again! Couldn't have asked for anything more. The only slight negative I have is that they recommended we used lifetime legal who appointed Spicketts Battrick in Cardiff as our solicitor. Our personal solicitor was difficult to deal with at times and I wish we had gone with a solicitor that had an online platform as we'd have had much better visibility and communication. However, Moginie's service was so good that they really deserve 5 stars. Thank you to the whole team.

I rented through Moginie James for more than 2 years. Paula Cope manages our property and she has been brilliant. She is incredibly professional and always helpful. It makes a huge difference having a supportive property manager.

We have just moved into our second rental property through Moginie James, and we’ve had such a positive experience with them. The lettings team, especially Elli Mai, Cat and Karolina, have made the moving process so much easier for us with both properties. Communication is great, they’re always helpful and we’ve felt that they really cared about our experience as tenants. We can’t recommend them enough!

I was recommended MJ the Cyncoed team, from a friend and it has certainly been very positive. Aaron valued the property. He was very knowledgeable, professional and helpful throughout. Karen from sales has been very supportive and efficient keeping me up to date constantly. The process so far has been quicker and more positive than I thought it would. Would highly recommend.

We have recently purchased our first house through Moginie James Cyncoed. From start to finish they have been so helpful in explaining every step of the process to checking in to see how we have settled in our new home. We can’t thank Moginie James enough for helping us find our perfect forever home and making the whole process smooth and stress free. Highly recommend!

Our experience with MJ was perfect. Aoife was incredibly helpful with the initial viewing and application process as well as always being on hand to answer queries. We had some issues with one of our references but Cat managed to sort this out quickly and kept us informed throughout. She really went over and above and it is very much appreciated. The service was excellent and has made the process much less stressful. We will always look to use MJ in future and if Aoife and Cat's boss is reading this, they deserve a raise! Thanks again. Laura and Sophie

I usually don't post reviews unless for truly exceptional service. I found the the lettings team in Moginie James Cyncoed very responsive and professional. Abigail was exceptionally good and very professional. She called me when I and the landlord were happy to proceed with letting she asked me if I would like a physical viewing. She was very flexible with time as well as I was a little late for the viewing appointment, which was really kind of her. Overall it's been a pleasure dealing with Moginie James. I now know that if I buy a property in Cardiff then Moginie James are the ones who would be my first contact.

As someone moving to Cardiff from the United States, Karolina and Cat were incredible They were very patient, kind, and prompt in their communication, especially given the red-hot rental market. They answered all of my questions and the systems they used for onboarding and referencing were actually not too bad to work with! Karolina definitely made getting up at 4 AM to follow up with her after sending an email the night regarding a dream flat before worth it!

Can’t recommend Moginie James enough. Outstanding customer service and I genuinely felt like I was their only customer because of their prompt responses and proactivity. Karen was incredibly helpful and had excellent communication - keeping me updating with every step of the sale. I wouldn’t use any other agency and if I could give a 6 star rating I would.

We've been letting our house through Moginie James for over a year now. The company charges a lot for their service, yet there were so many mistakes on their part that literally cost us thousands of pounds that made me question the value of these services. In the hindsight I wish I had chosen a different agent.

Ellie has been great, approachable and professional! She's been bearing with us through couple of properties till we found the most suitable one for us. She managed to take all our concerns seriously by negotiating the landlord. Also James replied so promptly and agreed for a 2nd review to confirm we are happy. Highly recommended!

Can't fault the service we had selling our home in Canton with MJ, and especially the service provided by Chris, Claire and Angharad. The office were always available by phone and email, our home was presented amazingly and the viewings were timed as to be minimally intrusive to family life. We got a great price for our home, and the management through from sale to exchange was first class with clear and frequent communication to support the progress of the sale!

After entrusting Moginie James with the management of our property for 7 years, the state in which it was returned to us is nothing short of shocking. Throughout our tenure, we encountered recurring issues with invoicing and maintenance, but nothing prepared us for the devastation we found upon returning to our apartment. In March 2023, we were notified that the floor required maintenance. We paid for partial floor and joist repairs, and Moginie James assured us the work had been completed and the floor was now fit for purpose. However, upon our return, we discovered a gaping hole in the floor and extensive damage to the bathroom floor that requires complete replacement. Despite their claims of managing and maintaining the property, Moginie James failed spectacularly. The checkout report noted minor damage to the flooring, which they dismissively categorized as "Lino damage." When confronted about the severe issues, Moginie James attempted to shift the blame onto the tenant, falsely claiming it was their responsibility to sign off on the work. Their response of "tough luck" demonstrates a complete disregard for their responsibilities as property managers. If you are paid to manage and maintain a property, basic upkeep and oversight are expected, something Moginie James clearly failed to deliver. To add insult to injury, we were paying an additional amount for insurance in case a tenant defaulted on payment, only to find out that such insurance did not exist. Our tenants were also treated poorly, Moginie James lost our keys and did not hand over all the keys that were provided by us. They then had the audacity to try to charge us for their mistake! The condition in which they returned the property to us is appalling and has caused a substantial financial burden. We are currently in the process of collating all necessary information and have commenced legal action against Moginie James for their gross mismanagement and failure to uphold their contractual obligations. Absolutely useless. Must do better.
