Habodel UK Doncaster reviews

★★★★★ 5/5

Google

I recently moved into a house owned by Habodel and I’m highly impressed by how smooth they have made this move, Shannan at Habodel helped me with everything regarding the contract and payments ect; she was quick at responding to emails, very polite and friendly! I had a few little problems which needed tending to but they had maintenance out within a few days, much faster than some landlords I’ve known! I also got a phone call after a week to make sure I was happy with everything and reminding me who I can contact if necessary, overall brilliant experience:)

Tried to rent a property from this company and looking at it now and stumbling on these other reviews I’m glad they declined me now. State on their listings that they “consider all benefits” which is a blatant lie as I offered to pay a certain amount of rent in advance and then pay the rest of my rent with UC until I got another full time job - they wouldn’t accept it and didn’t give me a reason. Whoever they use to check bank accounts to find earnings are also useless. I’m self employed and expressed multiple times that my clients do not always reference properly. They then tried to claim I only earn £3,000 a year. If this is the case, how have I managed to pay my rent on time from my previous address, pay bills and feed myself for the past year all whilst being able to go on holidays too? I offered to pay 6-7 months in advance to accommodate for having no guarantor (I have no family left and no friends who can be my guarantor and I desperately need somewhere to live at the moment which my search has now been pushed back because I was lead to believe I was going to get the keys to the property.) the price of this would have been £2,700-£3,150. This wasn’t good enough and they wanted 12 MONTHS RENT upfront instead which would have come to £5,400. I expressed that was a lot of money and tried to come up with a good solution (7 months upfront and then UC payments to go straight to the landlord as soon as I got them in which would have been about a month into my tenancy so the landlord would have actually had all the 12 months rent before the 12 months would have been anywhere near ending.) I was told that if I could get that money together and wanted to pay it to let them know, this was 2 days ago and the property has already gone back up online (before the holding deposit time has ended might I add.) so even if I did get the money together, it’ll probably be gone anyway. This is ridiculous. Thank you for wasting my time, happily taking a holding deposit and then not giving me it back because it’s ’non refundable.’ Avoid this company at all costs. Not worth the stress or the hassle and upon looking at other reviews I think my 12 months at the property would have been hell on earth anyway. 0/5 stars. Bad treatment. No care. No explanations.

Tenant for 3yr had to do the house myself £3,500 it cost me to bring that house upto human habitation standards and cos they bitter about me leaving they insult me and actually say to me that I havnt done anything to the property these landlords are ill mannered and a nightmare to deal with they are greedy very very greedy won't do any of the repairs and the tenants who do pay their rent every month on time and keep the houses pristine get no thanks at all , refusing to give me my deposit bk so I stripped the house of everything I paid for , I even left a security system up for them which I have now removed cos of Emily's lip and disrespect , absolutely no respect for themselves or anyone else , and yes I do pay my rent every month on time and still this is what I get bk so believe me they deserve everything they get even off decent tenants like me I hope they enjoy replacing everything I've took OF MINE

I have a great experience with Habodel Property. They do what they say. Their response time to enquiry is second yo none. They don't just dump you in a Property, they check back on you. They are nice

"Living in a Habodel property has been a breeze! Their maintenance culture is top-notch, always addressing issues promptly and efficiently. What's more impressive is the excellent rapport between tenants and landlords, fostering a sense of trust and mutual respect. Complained of a poor heating system and to our greatest surprise ,the entire system was changed to brand new (Brand New 4 Radiators & 1 Boiler) . I highly recommend Habodel for a hassle-free renting experience!"

Very difficult to get repairs etc done when their office is 100 miles from our property and we can't get out of work easily. Eventually we just gave up and lived in a cold house. When I requested evidence three times as to why they were making deductions from our deposit, they sent a large invoice for all the work they were going to do to improve the house once we moved out (it would have been nice if they had done this work before we moved in). They implied that we should be grateful they weren't deducting the full amount when most of the work would categorically not have been our responsibility to pay. Pathetic bully behaviour. Just your typical lettings agent. The power is in their hands and they know it so they see no need to treat you with honesty and respect. They put in no more than the bare minimum of effort but are ready for a fight at a moment's notice.

They are a shambles of a company, no respect, no communication. There property caused damaged to mine. They left the property next to me in a very bad water damaged state, water running down the walls and puddles on the floor, even with children in the house. Water running into electrics, a RISK to life and they just don't give a damn, the house was a state and the new tennants had only just moved in and it was a mess before they moved in. They get out of paying for damage and have no respect for other people other than money they make of the property which they rent and it's in a state. They should be ashamed of what they try to represent. I for one will suggest if you are looking to deal with a company like this. I would turn around and run in the opposite direction. You will struggle to get any communication and it will leave you drained and very unhappy with what you are paying for. Just run thats all I can say. Disgusting company to deal with. A complete waste of time effort and energy. As i stated before DISGUSTED with the attitude of the people that work there. 1 STAR IS FAR TO MUCH TO GIVE.

Renting with Habodel has been an amazing experience start to finish. The apartment for the first 12 months in my tenancy is a stunning Seaview, brand newly refurbished to a high standard and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I would recommend Habodel and hope to remain with them for a very long period of time. The rental price is very fair and the referencing process was very quick and straight forward.

Absolutely appalling company to rent from!!!! For months I’ve been dealing with this - mould and damp and constant leaks and nothing is getting sorted yet they have the cheek to put my rent up as well!! I’ve never missed a rent payment and have been a good tenant yet they think it’s acceptable for children to live in a house in this state!!! I’ve contacted my local mp and council and will be moving out asap!!!

Tried to increase my rent from £550 to £675 at Hartburn Mews. Asked for a reference for new landlord several times and they have completely ignored me almost costing me a new property. Luckily new landlord was understanding. I'd just avoid this place if you're looking to rent

Very horrible company. I regret the day I decided to rent with Habodel. Rented out a house that needed deep renovation but they just painted it over. Moved in and started noticing everything wrong with the house. So much mold, condensation and damp. This has greatly affected my health and that of my little boy. I have complained severally but they keep delaying. If you value your physical and mental health, avoid this landlord
