Evicted over Christmas and new years under a landlords lie. Informed the landlord was selling the property due to rising tax costs, then to see the property back up for rent at a higher price. Check out was waived as the property was being redeveloped. Then to recieve emails 2 months later demanding more money to remove rubbish at the property that wasn't ours. To see the house listed empty and tidy this was an attempt of the landlord to make more money from us. The photos were also new as they had our lampshades and curtains present, and the property was spotless with no rubbish left. The property doesn't have the correct HMO license for the amount of tenants. Boiler was broken the entire time and they wouldn't install a new one, simply paid the cheapest option to have a power flush... which did nothing. Temperatures below the liveable temp, 2 bedrooms located within these dangerous living conditions Due to leaving our tenancy early under a lie. We had to pay extra for cancelling subscriptions

Just agreed a rental through Northwood Forest Hill and have had a really positive experience. Rebecca has been professional, friendly and very responsive throughout, from the initial viewing through to getting everything agreed. She kept us updated at every stage and made the whole process feel straightforward and well organised. Recommended!

We had a great experience with Rebecca showing us a property. She was very knowledgeable of the flat and surrounding area. Most importantly she gave us the time to look through the property at our own pace, which was excellent as when we had viewings at previous properties with different letting agents, we felt very rushed and left feeling as if we hadn’t actually seen the flat! The whole process has been very smooth and we can’t wait to move in, thank you Rebecca!

I have paid the holding deposit and waited for weeks for a follow up. And then they rescinded the offer. Now I will be left homeless. Do not deal with this estate agents. They are scammers.

Arbie · 10 July 2026

Agent replied · 10 October 2026

As you know, the landlord changed their mind and rented their property privately to a family member. This decision was not made by Northwood. Your holding deposit was refunded to you the same day.

Horrible service. Ally Wallman was very slow to respond and then pulled the offer at the last minute. She also seems to use procedures which are not secure, such as asking you to send a selfie with your ID via email. Please do not use these agents. Absolutely dreadful.

Rebecca made sure that the whole process went smoothly and effectively. From being very professional and accommodating during the viewings to help me in the offer and contract phase and paperwork and forms.

We had such a great experience viewing the property with Rebecca. She created a really relaxed environment and gave us the space to explore without any pressure. Her calm and friendly energy made the whole process feel really natural. She answered all our questions when we had them but never overwhelmed us with info. It was one of the few times we’ve felt genuinely at ease during a property viewing, it made a big difference and left a really positive impression on both the home and the agency

Had a fab experience with Rebecca. She allowed us to look round the property at our own pace and had all the answers to our questions. Her communication since has been super clear and helpful. She has facilitated an additional viewing for us to get measurements which is really appreciated.

I definitely would not recommend Daisy Lets to anyone. Nella was very good at communicating before I moved into my flat with my partner. However, ever since we moved in, the communication with Collette has been shocking. We moved in on the 14th August and there were multiple issues. We even had to get a second key cut ourselves. We keep emailing to chase about getting problems sorted (broken bed, missing bike shed key, broken blinds etc). These issues have been outstanding ever since we moved in and we have no idea when they'll be resolved. I think we'll have to resort to visiting Daisy Lets in-person. We've also had a major issue with the parking - free allocated parking was advertised with the flat but due to previous tenants losing the permits and a new permit not being ordered for us, we ended up with a parking ticket.

Luke · 1 January 2022

Agent replied · 31 December 2024

I am sorry for the problems you have experienced. Unfortunately the previous tenants lost the parking permit. A new one has been ordered, but these things can take time. As to repairs, we have to follow instructions from the landlord. All lettings agents must follow instruction from the landlord. In this case the landlord demands to use his own contractors and suppliers. The landlord was informed of all issues as soon as we were aware. We cannot override this. If the landlord had allowed us to use our team, then the bed and blinds could have been replaced within a day. I am sorry for the problems you have had, but we are restricted by legislation as to how much we can do.

When we (girlfriedn and I) were looking for a place Daisy lets was great in accommodating and meeting our needs. As tenants there were a few initial problems (broken dishwasher and very old refrigerator) when we moved in but Maxine was able to rectify it quickly. She was in my personal experience, helpful and understanding. Which is why I dont understand the low ratings. Probably differs for everyone but so far we have a good experience with them as tenants.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

Ray · 1 January 2022

Hello Ray, Thank you for your kind words. Maxine works very hard to keep both tenants and landlords happy and rectify issues quickly. I am glad to hear she was able to help quickly.

Really positive experience buying through the agency. I dealt mainly with Ally, who was friendly, responsive and very easy to communicate with throughout. She was always helpful with updates and arranging access to the property, and the whole process felt straightforward. Would happily recommend them.
