TrustpilotHenry was a super star
Henry was a super star. He really did go out of his way to ensure that we felt like he was on top of everything. When our buyers randomly pulled out he had the property re listed in hours and we managed to get a higher price after this. Value for money - the virtual tour really did sell our home. Thanks

TrustpilotTerrible (Bognor Branch)
Terrible (Bognor Branch)Rented for 1 ½ years and they never helped me once. Despite asking Marlina multiple time inc visiting the office, I was never given a key to communal meter cupboard to get readings. I never knew if I was in credit or debt the whole time. I was even emailed by Marlina to say too busy to get one, please ask a neighbour?Heating never worked, just a plug in radiator. Mould in bedroom ect.After leaving they tried to claim most of my deposit with false claims. End of tenancy report said multiple items missing despite them later admitting they had these in their offices. Locks tampered with, carpet dirty, pet damage & much more. They even took photos at strange angles to make things look worse than they were.Lucky I took photos start & end of tenancy & The deposit protection ruled in my favour.I promise you it was in better condition when I left. I even showed the owner round who said he was happy I looked after it.During a final call to them I asked why they never mentioned anything to me if issues and they said it was company policy to only talk to their clients. I thought I was their client???????Disgusting behaviour. If you dare use them (especially this branch) Take photos people!!Ok rant over. I don’t normally moan but all the above & virtually saying I stole items, I had to comment.Good luck all

TrustpilotBirmingham Martin & Co
Rented for 3 years with Martin & Co Birmingham, got left without a washing machine for 4 weeks because Debbie Kempson ordered the wrong washing machine! No compensation for there wrongdoing broken floorboards caused by contractors as the washing machine didn’t fit, no hot water for nearly a week! The worst company in the world. On departure they said I would receive my deposit back within 10 days I left on the 25th of April and it’s been nearly a month! I’ve now had to get a solicitor involved to give them a statutory declaration form to get my deposit back as they have stopped responding to my emails! I’ve been made to feel nobody caresAvoid renting with these guys!

GoogleGary at Martin & co has been a fantastic agent to work with. He is knowledgeable, reassuring and very capable at navigating the inevitable challenges of buying and selling in Cornwall. His communication skills are excellent and I have greatly appreciated his regular updates. He has gone above and beyond in our sale and I greatly appreciate his work. I would certainly return to Martin and Co and will be recommending the agency to friends and family locally based on my experiences this year.

GoogleI rented my flat privately for 8 years. After years of battling to get any maintenance done I reported my landlady to the council. 3 months later Martin & Co took over the management of my flat. I cannot say it's been a positive experience. Within a week I had a rent increase of £100 a month after they inspected the property. Within a month myself and another couple were issued with a Section 21 (we clearly were problem tenants and no other tenant was evicted). I have since heard that a new tenant was told that the landlady is looking for long term tenants and she's had to sign a 12 month fixed term tenancy and she has a bowl catching water from a leaking toilet! Although another rumour is that the owner plans to sell the flats of those who have been evicted. Take whatever you hear at viewings with a pinch of salt! Since September 2023 I have been grieving the loss of my Mother, my beloved elderly cat and I've been unwell with a gallstone and the stress of being evicted. In a town that has a huge housing crisis and extremely high rents it's been horrendous stressful to find alternative accommodation, but I managed it by some miracle. When I told them I was leaving they wanted proof in the form of a copy of my new tenancy agreement so I could avoid being taken to court as I'd stayed after my section 21 expiry date (Easter Sunday!) I was advised by Cornwall Council not to make myself intentionally homeless and I could exercise my right to stay if I hadn't found somewhere to live. They have now inspected the property after I left and implied I have left a pane of glass broken and just left a plastic film over it along with damage to a door that I had no choice in damaging after the catch dropped and I was unable to open it and it was a potential fire risk. They have formed an opinion of me and majority of the staff haven't even been to the property. And not one member of staff even offered any understanding for the horrendous 6 months I'd had. How can they comment on the state of a property 8 years ago when they have only been managing it for 5 months, nor know of the full history or battles myself and other tenants have had to adure? I feel like I've been branded as a bad tenant and a criminal for simply exercising my rights to have a property that I pay rent on properly maintained. I'm now trying to get my deposit back. Although I have heard my previous landlady is paying my former next door neighbour to decorate the property. Something she actually refused to do for me and told me it was my responsibility once I'd moved in. If you rent do your research because you will be told things that aren't necessarily correct. And if any of the maintenance team or management of this company read this they should read their own blog about locks and my email about the broken lock!

TrustpilotBeware Blackpool, Lancaster and St Annes Branches
Dodgy plumbers left me with no water heating all winter. They lied and harassed me into leaving for trying to get it fixed.I spent over a month trying to get somebody decent to fix the water but they kept sending the same ones. Then I asked the council for help. Next day they started a no fault eviction (it's illegal to evict over repairs). They said the landlord was selling which was a lie.After 2 months they came and said I should have left which is a lie. They got a guy they said was the landlord (who had a different name) to lie and threaten me about the eviction.I'd been dealing with lying scumbags in a flat with no hot water for 5 months by this point so I gave up and left. They put the property up for let (for more money, when it didn't have hot water) before I moved out.I asked for a manager but nobody helped. (There are no managers, but everybody has the word manager in their job title).The council wrote to the "operations manager" for help but he ignored them. The "property manager" lied to them. The "assistant manager" hid out of view when the "property manager" came to harass me into leaving.It's an independent agent with offices in Blackpool, Lancaster and St Annes. Martin & Co is just a branding thing for the independent agents to hide behind, so "Martin & Co" won't help either.I wouldn't recommend anybody go near anything connected with this company or these people. I can't put into words the hell they will subject you to if you have an problem.As soon as you have a problem, speak to citizens advice and try to get legal help. Record everything in case you need it in court.

GoogleHaving used Martin & Co, Falmouth, to manage the letting of our property, I had no hesitation to use them for selling as well. What is described as one of the most stressful things to do, selling our house with Martin & Co was an absolute breeze, from start to finish. The whole team were professional, honest and helpful throughout the entire process. Thank you Felicia, Jon and Tom

GoogleVerity and Tom were extremely helpful and patient throughout the buying process. Verity in particular worked incredibly hard to make the process as smooth as possible (even when it was bumpy). The rest of the team was also very helpful, if Verity or Tom were unavailable - all of this, throughout lockdowns and the pandemic - thank you so much - 5*.

TrustpilotExcellent service
We recently enquired about a rental property, our call was handled courteously and efficiently, our viewing was arranged timeously and Nasreen from Martin & Co was helpful, knowledgable and very respectful throughout the entire process. Documentation was delivered as promised, fully explained and processed expeditiously. At the time of writing, we have no experience of lease end or matters arising, return of deposit etc.

TrustpilotNot competent advisers
I am self-employed. My husband employed and we have a guarantor. But a very "nice" lady on the phone said that since I have been working for less than 1 year, my income will not be taken into account and the presence the guarantor does not change the situation in any way! So we could rent from them (or anyone from Rightmove) only on husband's salary which is enough only for properties not more then £900!!!Obviously that adviser is not competent and left me with no hope when it was a lie!
