GoogleMe and my partner Max are incredibly impressed with the service we’ve received. Liam was the one who mainly dealt with us and he really looked after us. He spoke kindly to us, helped us with what we needed and treated us like human beings, despite other letting agencies letting us down in this regard. Lovely to deal with and couldn’t ask for better!

GoogleRecently rented a property through Martin & Co and was super thankful for Ruby’s persistence throughout the process. Despite some errors from RightMove Ruby was able to steer the process and went above and beyond to secure me the tenancy

GoogleI would like to thank Jessica Doody at Martin & CO falmouth for her professionalism in helping us secure this rental property. We used her great advice of writing a cover note to our landlord which definitely helped us to secure the home which we love for us and our family. Every request since viewing the property in regards to payments and referencing etc have been dealt with very promptly and professionally as well as in a friendly manner. A great experience so far - thank you!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

What more can i say but a very huge thank you to Martin & Co Huddersfield who provided an A1+++ service in selling both mine and my late fathers home, and what has been a very hard personnel year.

TrustpilotMartin and Co. Milton Keynes - great team and service!!
We rented our property through Martin and Co. in Milton Keynes, from 2017-2021 and our experience with them was blissful. We have had troubles in the past with other agencies, so their services and great levels of customer service were very welcome. Tony, Kim and the team were always on top of any issues from us or the tenants, they were professional, organised and most importantly for us, in regular communication. We could not have asked for better service and support. Thank you to the wonderful team in Milton Keynes!

TrustpilotI am shocked and appalled at how me and…
I am shocked and appalled at how me and my partner have been treated by Martin and Co this week. We had an offer accepted on a house and this was taken off the market, we had sent over our information and began to contact our solicitor and mortgage broker to get the ball rolling quickly - the excitement only lasted less than 24 hours before we were told we had been gazumped and there was nothing else we can do. I'm aware there is no set rule that this can't happen but how we were treated by Colchester Martin and Co about this was appalling. Even after our email back we had no response until we rang and even then Gary was rude towards my partner. This has now left us not even wanting to sell our own property and come off the market completely because of how Martin and Co treated us.

TrustpilotIntrusive and Tone-Deaf Marketing
I’ve had unsolicited flyers from this estate agent put through our letterboxes, even though there’s a clear “no junk mail” notice for the building. What’s more, they’ve somehow got into the block and delivered them inside, ignoring that notice completely.

TrustpilotExcellent staff
I have been in contact with a few members of the team, but in particular Dawn. She has been so helpful in securing a house for myself and friends to live in next academic year in Winchester. For a process that can be very stressful, especially for students, it was made to feel almost easy and when 2 people dropped out of our house they were very understanding and helpful in adding the 2 new members to the contract. Overall a very pleasant experience so far!

GoogleAmazing service with our house viewing! We had Liam helping us out and he was absolutely brilliant and so informative. He is very quick to respond to any emails and has helped us secure a place quickly and without worry.

GoogleI had a very efficient process letting a garage from Martin and Co. The team was responsive, clear about terms, passed on messages when needed, and the digital doc / signing process made life very easy. Jake was particularly friendly and helpful in assessing whether both of my cars would fit in the garage 😂 All round great experience so far.

TrustpilotFive Stars. Great service.
I have found Martin & Co of excellent service. Janice at Martin & Co in Woolton was excellent at helping me to buy my perfect home a while back. She kept me up to date and the house sale was completed in good time and therefore I decided to contact Martin & Co (Who have now moved to Allerton Road) when I needed new tenants for an apartment that I own. Once again, they delivered a great service. The new tenants had moved in a week after the previous had left. Additionally, the tenants seem really nice so I'm really pleased and I don't have to worry about my property being empty and where I will find the money to cover the rent. I will definitely be using Martin & Co in the future, the team on Allerton Road are really friendly and helpful. Thankyou so much.

TrustpilotDuring the tenancy everything was well…
During the tenancy everything was well occasionally when the landlord did not want to carry out works this was communicated clearly but we had some issues towards the end of tenancy when the landlord wanted to claim money off our deposit for issues that was already there when we moved in. They had lot the evidence of check in document and then sided with the landlord instead of even trying to understand our side and were very rude. In the end when the claim when to dispute with deposit scheme we managed to find our copy of the check in which proved that the issues were there in the first place and our deposit refunded. There was no acknowledgement or support as a tenant from the agency and infact they were very rude about it.

TrustpilotIf you want to feel like your always last on the list, this is the agency for you!
To this day I wonder why me and my partner chose them. I'm sure I will wonder till I die. As a landlord, this is the agency for you! They will go far and wide, by breaching contracts, just to protect your interest! That's right! They will do criminal things and get their ass on the line just to get you an extra £ or two! I was just charged 70£ for cleaning, when I left it in x5 better than it's original condition! Oh, wait. The landlord doesn't actually get this money. So I guess, even for landlords, this is not the agency for you! You might get held up with a small claims court for no reason whatsoever! By contract I was supposed to get the deposit within 8 days after giving in the keys. Today the ''issue'' is resolved, which would make it the 23rd day. Almost x3, a day short, damn, so close. This delay was not on ''my part'' or the ''landlords part''. It was simply the agents failing to contact either of us. They do not care, they will not care. The maintenance teams they use are bloody ridiculous. If I have to go into details about that, your head will spin.If you're a masochist, like to be ignored, enjoy getting your nerves stretched for stupid little things and like spending more than you should, choose them. There was only 1 decent person there, Andy Swallow, felt I should mention it. Even for him I can't lift up my star rating, sorry Andy, your a nice guy. Consider moving.

TrustpilotRude and very unprofessional
Rude and very unprofessional. It took me 3 attempts at contacting the agent in Manchester to arrange a viewing and this was then confirmed by a surly individual who would not give me their name. They then did not show up, leaving me out in the rain having paid for a taxi to the viewing, and ignored all my calls and WhatsApp messages. These were then read later in the day and absolutely no attempt at an apology was made.

TrustpilotThe BEST Letting Agency in MANCHESTER
The BEST Letting Agency I have come across during the last 10 years or so. I had very bad experiences with other popular letting agencies in Manchester. But Martin & Co was the best from the beginning. I had some issues when I moved in in 2016. The apartment was not cleaned properly. But it was only a matter of letting them know, and the next day a professional cleaner came and did the cleaning well. Next, I had some issues with the Sofa (it had torn surface), the two mattress were damaged and strained. I informed them about these. Within 2 weeks the agency replaced the Sofa and mattresses with Brand New ones. Next, there was a damage near the kitchen on the wooden floor. It was very badly damaged and looked ugly. In fact, i noticed these damages when I came for a viewing, so I did not think that they will replace it as I already knew the damage before I moved in. But the Agency was so great that they contacted the Landload and the Landlord was the best, because he decided to replace the entire floor with brand new wooden flooring. Which might have cost him 1000s of pounds. NEVER expected such a great service. Later on had some issues with the heating control unit, within just two days it was replaced. NO Questions asked. Had an issue with the kitchen sink tap. Replaced within days. Had an issues with the main door lock, repaired the lock within few days.I truly loved this apartment, and never wanted to switch the apartment because I have been treated extremely well. I lived there until I had to leave Manchester.On 23.01.2021 I terminated the contract and vacated the property. I did a professional cleaning and handed over the keys (put them through their letter box as the office was closed). Despite the disruptions to normal business work, I could not believe they processed my end of tenancy and returned my DEPOSIT Back in to my Account on 26.01.2021. That was unbelievable. It was so fast that they might have carried out an inspection as soon as I vacated and refunded me immediately.They DID NOT deduct a pence from my deposit. They were extremely generous and great. I would like to make this an opportunity to thank both Staff at Martin & Co. Manchester Central Office and my Lovely landlord for such a wonderful experience from start to end.If I ever move in to Manchester again, I will definitely rend a property from Martin & Co.This is my story. And its the TRUE Story. Believe me, I wouldn't be bothered to write this Review if I wasn't truly happy.

TrustpilotPLUMBER CHRIS....SHEFFIELD 50 STARS
PLUMBER CHRIS.....He sorted a problem we had with hot water, a few days ago. The boiler stopped working yesterday (Saturday), so no heating or hot water. His number is for out of hours emergency, so I called and left a message as well as text message, just so it would already be reported ready for when he could come to do it. He text me today (Sunday) saying he would call in to have a look. Great!! As it turns out it was a quick fix. The thing is, it's his day off, he was at home with the little one, his missus came home from work for an hour as usual, then he rushed here.CHRIS WENT ABOVE AND BEYOND to sort a job that he could have left until tomorrow. Thank you Chris, 50 stars.

TrustpilotIncompetent in all areas
We rented a property for over a year, we always paid rent on time and looked after the property but to say that Martin and Co martinco.com are a borderline scam and extremely incompetent is an understatement to say the least. First of all, the rent was high so I assume the landlord paid a fairly hefty fee for Martin and Co to look after the property (though I don't know that for a fact) so what they actually do with this fee is beyond me.Lets start from the beginning...INCOMPETENCE:That is the general word I would use for this company, in particularly from the lady who managed our property Barbara Cousins. Where do I begin, first of all she doesn't even know how to use basic email, for instance as we lived in the shared property we BOTH needed to be cc'd and replied to with communications, I must have explained this 10 times via email but she still continued to constantly fail at this basic task, meaning me and the missus where constantly going back and forth catching up and forwarding things to make actual sense. Then, just having general conversations about logical things regarding the property seemed to confuse her, this isn't a character assassination but I honestly don't know how she got the job, unless she's a family member, friend or something similar within the company as it certainly isn't on skill set I can tell you that. My girlfriend, who is known for her patience just couldn't deal with her anymore. The worst one was (and you wont believe this) our ceiling fell through due to a dodgy waste pipe and was flooding the house, we rang them immediately and explained, Barbara said and I quote "not sure if we can get someone out right now, but just don't have a bath" - yes, she actually said that, says it all really.Now on to the building work (if you can call it that). They seem to hire a man called Michael, I assume he is cheap because Martin and Co clearly don't like spending money and have made that clear on several occasions. He is a "I can do any job" type of bloke, he comes across as a cowboy in the work he does, which is exceptionally low quality, in fact, I, in my limited DIY skill set often had to give him advise - even the missus had to show him how to locate the stop tap for the water and how to use it which was hilarious. SCAMFirst of all, we initially signed for 6 months, but in the contract they tried to put 12 months on there until we noticed, they of course apologized and amended it but, an honest mistake or an attempt to try and increase the contract? you decide. Constantly trying to save money, multiple occasions I was called by the to try and work my work schedule around builders so "they could save money"...yes, they actually said that. When we left the property, aside from the broken ceiling (which was not our fault) the house was actually in cleaner and better condition than when we moved in, and, there was a few crumbs in the oven and got charged over £200 for them to clean it! also, some light bulbs went due to the bad wiring (and reoccurring issue) and got charged £5/new light despite not being our fault. Lastly, deposit. We was told several times that they requested the deposit release from the DPS, yet never received it. After several weeks we had to manually call them and force it to be released as the agents never actually contacted the deposit protection scheme. Generally an absolute mess, these people need investigating.

TrustpilotGood service
I have dealt with the offices in Keighley and Saltaire many times over the years ( as a landlord). Caroline and the team have always found me good tenants. Communication and the drawing up of contracts has always been fine.I will continue to use Martin & Co and can recommend them.
Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
Tell us what you need and we'll put you in touch. Martin and Co hasn't joined The Trusted Agent yet, so we'll pass your enquiry to them or to up to three other top-rated agents near Falmouth.
