GoogleWe are so thankful for the opportunity to work with Martyn Gerrard in East Finchley, especially with Jody as our estate agent. Searching for a rental home can often be a stressful and overwhelming process, but Jody made it incredibly smooth for us. Right from the start, Jody took great care of us, fully understanding our requirements and limitations. Over the course of a few weeks, she searched for the perfect home for us, demonstrating a high level of dedication and professionalism. Jody consistently showed empathy and attentiveness, always making us feel like a priority. Her support has been invaluable to us. In the end, Jody found us the perfect home and we couldn't be happier!

GoogleWe had a very positive experience working with Sophie from Martyn Gerrard while securing our rental property. As the listing agents, they were professional, responsive, and well-organized throughout the entire process.
They were consistently punctual for all scheduled viewings, which made coordinating our search much easier and gave us confidence in their reliability. During the viewing and follow-up stages, they were also proactive in providing all the relevant documentation we needed, including the EICR which was particularly helpful in assessing the condition and safety of the property.
Communication was clear and timely, and they were quick to answer any questions we had, ensuring that we felt informed at every step. Overall, the process was smooth and efficient, and we would not hesitate to recommend them to others looking to rent a property.

GoogleIt is my first time renting out my house and I have been incredibly impressed with the team at MG in E Finchley. Sophie was immediately on the front foot and talked me carefully through the whole process and answered any questions I had. Viewings were arranged incredibly quickly and a rental was confirmed within a matter of days. The staff I have dealt with (Sophie, Titas and Megan) have been very enthusiastic, engaged and ultra-efficient at every turn. Excellent service and highly recommended!

GoogleSophie was incredible !
Since the very first moment we spoke on the phone she showed professionalism and efficiency.
After hanging up the phone she sent me over lots of options for me to look at.
I had really not much time to find a new place and Sophie has been a gift sent from I don't know where to us.
With her you can be 100% sure and not worried because she will sort everything out as soon as possible .
Very reliable and always answered after no time.
5 stars for her!
Thanks Martyn gerrard and thanks Sophie!

GoogleI do not believe any positive feedback here. We communicated with this team for a year and a half and had only very negative impressions. They don't tell all the information to the client and cheated us out of more than £500 from the start, forcing us to take the keys when the apartment was not ready to move in. We were able to move in only after two weeks when they did the necessary repairs. They do not respond to letters and calls and have to write 3-4 requests until they give a completely unprofessional answer. We asked for a change of agent as Sophie was extremely incompetent, but it just got worse. I do not recommend anyone to contact this agency. They despise their customers.

GoogleTitas really pulled it out of the bag for us with our current flat search - we were really up against it in terms of time, due to travel and work commitments. Titas was communicative, attentive and worked very hard to help us secure a property which we are very excited about.

GoogleWe listed our property in East Finchley with Martyn Gerrard in February (through Andreas and Gabriella) and within 2 weeks of listing it, we received an offer we were happy with which was accepted and we have just exchanged.

GoogleExtremely Distressing and Unacceptable Experience
I had an extremely distressing experience with Martyn Gerrard. On 24th December, he was asked to pay a £507 deposit and was clearly informed that my moving date was confirmed for 9th January. He was also told that the referencing process would be very simple. Based on this assurance, I gave notice to my current landlord.
Despite fully cooperating with the referencing process and providing all requested documents, bank screenshots, videos, employer confirmations, and company documents, the agency continuously delayed and gave false reassurance. From 5th January onward, I was told every day that confirmation would be provided “tomorrow,” which never happened.
On 8th January, I urgently asked them to either confirm the tenancy or clearly state that the property would not be given to me so I could protect my housing situation. They failed to do so, leaving me at serious risk of being forced out of my home on 9th January with no alternative accommodation. This situation caused severe stress and anxiety for me and my family.
Even more concerning, despite their failure to provide the property or proper confirmation, my £507 deposit has still not been returned. This behavior is highly unprofessional, irresponsible, and unacceptable. I feel completely misled and treated unfairly.
I strongly advise others to be very cautious before dealing with this company.
Chandra · 16 January 2026
Agent replied · 16 January 2026
Thank you for bringing this matter to our attention. We are sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with your experience and we take all feedback of this nature very seriously.
Our records indicate that the tenancy did not proceed because the referencing process was unsuccessful due to major inconsistencies in the information that was provided. As you will be aware, under the Tenant Fees Act, applicants are required to take reasonable steps to secure a tenancy and to provide information that is accurate, complete and truthful. Where this does not occur, a holding deposit may be retained in line with the legislation.
That said, we appreciate that this is a frustrating situation and we want to ensure that it has been handled correctly and fairly. We have therefore escalated this case to our Managing Director of Lettings, who will personally review the circumstances in full and contact you directly to discuss the outcome of that review.
We remain committed to acting transparently and in accordance with the law, and we welcome the opportunity to resolve this matter appropriately.
★★★★★ 3/5
GoogleAs tenants who rented a flat through this agency, our overall experience was professional & smooth but a few things kept it from a higher rating.
When we made small requests, they didn't try to accommodate them or find a way to make it work on a couple of occasions. And then there was a slight delay of the key handover that added unnecessary stress on our moving day.
Nothing major on their own but together they left the impression the agency won't go out of its way for tenants.
