We had an appointment to view a house at 2.30pm yesterday. No one turned up to show us around. Not the best way to sell a house.

Last week I had a panic attack when the thumb turner fell of from inside my flat and I couldn't get out. I reached out to Ben right away and was so pleased at how quickly he responded and got in touch with a locksmith who then appeared within the hour and a half! So by 11am everything was sorted! so a massive thank you to ben and to the locksmith :)

I recently rented a property from Umega Lettings and it was the most pleasant renting experience I have had. The staff were all very helpful and easy to communicate with and they fixed any problems ASAP. I'd also like to single out one of the property managers, Erin Whyte as being especially helpful and going the extra mile during the move out phase ensuring all parties involved were happy. I would highly recommend renting from Umega Lettings.
Thanks so much for this feedback and for mentioning Erin - it's great to see that all her hard work is noticed externally. Merry Christmas!

The whole process was quite simple with Umega. Although I have just signed my agreement, I already know full well that their services will continue to support throughout my stay, given the way they have handled everything up until now. Kirsten is a blessing, and truly patient with all my many questions and emails. Thank you!

Update. got the explanation from Umega and they explained what happened to the delay. The review before is a little fierce. I think Umega do care about the client and willing to communicate. So I will still recommend Umega to person who look for a caring agent. ----------------------------------------------------- I enquiry about the quote of my flat letting. After 4 days, there is someone reply to me finally. Then after the evaluation day, the agent did not reply to me about the viewing result even I ask them positively. This disappointed me a little bit.
Thanks you for your feedback and for updating your review following our emails this morning. We really DO care (A LOT) so I'm glad you felt this :)

As a Landlord who utilises Umega Lettings to rent my property, I cannot recommend their services highly enough. Both their sales and management departments are phenomenal - streamlining the entire process from start to finish (I've had the privilege of working with Erin, Emily, and Isla, all of whom were one step ahead of me with any queries or concerns I may have had). Service is always with a smile, and the results are second to none. Very deserving of all accolades they have received so far, and they deserve many more going into the future.
What a lovely review Alasdair, thank you so much! I'll make sure your fab comments are passed on to the top team - Erin, Emily & Isla!

We did some research to find who would be the best agents in Edinburgh and asked a lot of folks. We chose Umega because of these reviews and after we had talked to them in person. They have not disappointed. In just over a month they have gone from helping us get the property listed, all the appropriate organisation done, renting it out and getting the first payment. Their process has been seamless - when they said that someone would be contacting us, they did. Above all, their value on taking care of people is evident. I'm very impressed so far.
So good to receive this feedback Fiona. Thank you! It's so satisfying to hear you say that you can feel the value we place on taking care of people. Thank you for choosing Umega - we hope it's a long and happy relationship :)

I was looking for a letting agency to manage rental flats in Edinburgh. I asked around amongst friends who were currently renting flats to find out which agencies gave a decent service to tenants, as I didn't want my tenants subjected to the usual horror stories of bad or non existent service. The name that kept coming up was Umega. I got in touch with them, and they were able to provide everything I needed: assistance with acquiring off-market property; a fully managed refurbishment service; and a full management service. I really can't fault any aspect of the work that Umega has done for me, and they often go above and beyond what I expect. At the same time their prices are very good, and actually seem a little lower than the industry norm. If you're looking to rent out a flat that you own or take out a lease on a flat I'd definitely recommend you get in touch with Umega to see how they can help you.
James ,thank you for such a comprehensive and complimentary review. This is soooooo nice to read, knowing that you've experienced the whole spectrum of team Umega. We're really chuffed that you came to us through our reputation amongst Edinburgh's tenants. Thanks for choosing Umega; it's a pleasure working with great landlords like you :)

During my time with Umega Lettings I had absolutely fantastic service! And to Simon and Amit and the landlady who handled us (I believe I am allowed to mention the agents' names) thank you- they were exceptional and easy to talk to. My partner and I moved into a flat, application was quick and easy, flat was beautifully clean and the inventory was documented accurately. Whenever we had an issue or query it was answered promptly and handled efficiently. We moved away from Edinburgh recently and when we moved out the procedure was straightforward. The inventory/deposit handling was well done and realistic with regards to wear and tear. We received our full deposit with zero issues. One thing that I liked about this company is that they have their own handy-workers. I believe having this made the company have less complications and also have much quicker responses to fix problems than other leading letting agencies in the city. Very impressed and would 100% recommend. Best out of the three letting agencies I used while living in Edinburgh.
Wow Caroline, your review has really touched us - thank you so much! It's great to hear your positive experience of the end of your tenancy and some great feedback on our maintenance team too - we don't always get to hear about these things in reviews so it's hugely appreciated and I'll make sure your lovely comments are passed back to the team too. We wish you all the best with your big move and we'd love to welcome you back to the Umega Family if you return to Edinburgh!

We've been with Umega for over an year now and we are very pleased. They are professional and friendly and most importantly they respond fast to any questions or problems you have. Problems will come in any flat especially the old ones but our agent, Alicja, dealt with all of them in a very professional way and we couldn't be happier. I don't want to point fingers but the company that I work for sometimes sublet work from other agencies from Edinburgh and most of them don't have very good work ethics and they neglect the tenants, but it's not the case with Umega, we can highly recommend them. Thanks for everything guys and keep it up. Kind regards, 2 happy tenants, Daniel and Esther.
Thank you Daniel this is fantastic feedback

My girlfriend and I have been renting with Umega for ten months now and we could not fault the service we have received from Umega. All staff have been extremely friendly and helpful and have been more than happy to assist us with any quires. Moreover, after renting in Edinburgh for five years and dealing with other letting agencies throughout this time, I can honestly say that Umega are in a whole different league and now, I would only ever rent through Umega. 5* letting agency!
Murray you have filled our hearts with joy, thank you! It genuinely means so much to hear that Umega would be your letting agent of choice <3

Amazing experience with Umega Lettings! My husband and I are very happy with the high quality service the Umega team provided while helping us get into our dream flat. From the very beginning and throughout the entire process of signing our tenancy agreement, the Umega team kept in consistent contact, happily answered all of our questions and went above and beyond to help make our transition a breeze. If you’re looking for the best letting agency this is the one!
Wow Madison you're making us blush! Thank you so much for your kind words, we're just so pleased you've found the process nice and simple - that's the aim. Welcome to your Umega home, we hope you love it!

Very good letting agency to work with as a tennent, any issue with the flat were sorted in good time. Our property manager Ioni looked after us very well and provided an excellent reference when we finally needed to move out, which took the stress out of everything!

I have been renting through Umega for a year and a half now and have had the best experience. Any property maintenance has always been dealt with in a timely manner. Naidene has always been helpful and responsive and nothing has ever been too much of an issue.

I’ve had such a great experience with Ioni at Umega, she’s made it a pleasurable experience. She’s been friendly and professional - and on hand to help and answer any questions or help with any issues really swiftly. A really excellent service, thanks.
So glad to hear that the lovely Ioni is taking such great care of you. Thank you for taking the time to leave her a review.

Very Professional
My partner and I are extremely happy with the services provided from the team at Umega, Edingburgh. They are as professional as they are pleasant to talk to. In the days leading up to our move-in date, they were in regular contact to ensure everything was organised and as stress free as possible. Continued support is there should we need it from Gemma Kenny & Maryanne Drysdale (New Tenancy Team).
Thank you so much Paul. I'll be sure to pass this onto Gemma and Maryanne.

Olga from Umega lettings has provided truly exceptional help, expertise and service on multiple occasions. She represents the Umega brand with the highest diligence and gives the attention to detail I have come expect from the market leaders in Edinburgh property management.

A very good letting company! Always responsive and prompt in addressing issues during my tenancy. When the tenancy came to a rather abrupt end outside of my control, my property manager Liz Whitehead really went above and beyond to help me …

Just wanted to praise one of your colleagues, Martin Peters, who proved to be very helpful during a recent changeover of tenants The previous people had smoked and Martin spent the week ensuring the flat was smell free for the next person He was very proactive and was great to deal with It’s a Gold Star from me
Great to hear that you've been happy with Martin's work - he'll be very pleased to hear your great feedback.
4/5
The team is good and provides assistance when required. Sometimes repairs take a bit longer than desired but it is probably due to the high number of properties they manage. Overall, very happy with the service provided by Umega, in particular by Abby Norman.
Thank you for your honest review and feedback Adrian - I'm glad you're happy overall, and please know we're always working to try and effect repairs as quickly as we possibly can...we'll keep at it!
5/5
My experience with Umega lettings has been super positive all around - such a happy, stress-free experience for me, and they have made me feel that they understand my emotional attachment to the property they are managing for me. All the staff have been prompt in their messaging, extremely friendly and helpful from the start and at all times - and it's been a particular joy to work with William lately - thank you so much!
Stress-free experience - that's what we try to do!!! This is amazing feedback, so thank you Anja! We understand that the properties we manage are landlord's biggest assets (often having been their own home at one point in the past) and they are tenants homes, their sanctuaries...so it's so good to hear that this came through when we've dealt with you. We'll make sure William knows how much you've appreciated working with him. Thanks again!
