FacebookUpdated review 10th Feb 2026
If you’re a land lord avoid this company at all costs.
We have been renting our flat out via them for roughly 6 months. Every month apart from one they have withheld payment. We have had to ring and email multiple times to which we get no replies. It is currently Monday and I emailed last Thursday & Friday to Jack Taggart & Wes and neither have had the decency to respond. I also left a voice mail for them on Saturday and spoke to a colleague of theirs on Saturday who confirmed he will get Wes or Jack to ring me first thing monday. First thing Monday has been and gone and nothing. I left another voice mail and finally have been called back.
Now it is Tuesday and still no payment has been made to us.
I have put a formal complaint in to the property ombudsman regarding this company as there is clearly a cash flow issue hence them not paying landlords. If you are having the same issue I would advise to email them with your issues as well as phone so you have a paper trail to submit as evidence.
Since my last review someone else who rents their property via Jack Taggart reached out and said she was having the exact same issue regarding getting paid rent, so appears to be an issue with in the company.

GoogleHuge thanks to George for his help in getting our housesale over the line for Jack Taggart. His support, persistence, and clear communication made a real difference throughout the process. He kept everything moving smoothly and was always on hand when needed. Really appreciate the effort!

GoogleMy first time renting and would highly recommend Jack Taggart. We had struggled finding places as it was so competitive and with pets made it even harder. Callie from Jack Taggart got straight back to us and we managed to arrange a speedy viewing same day! We were able to secure the apartment and found the whole process really easy. Callie is brilliant very helpful, responding to my emails quickly and helped me through the renting process by taking her time and making it easy for me to understand.

FacebookGenerally an extremely poor service from day one, very unresponsive and unhelpful. Once again no call back today as requested to resolve an ongoing issue that nobody seems to be interested. I phoned the office, I was told Jack Taggart would call me back in 15 -20 minutes, an hour later I called back to be informed he's gone home for the day, hardly surprising. The last several times that I have asked to be called, nobody has contacted me. I have never dealt with such an unhelpful lettings company.

GoogleThe team at Jack Taggart, including Jack himself, went above and beyond to support us not only on our purchase of one of the properties they had with them, but also pushing to speed up our property's sale process being managed by another agency. They were constantly chasing people throughout the entire chain to make sure everyone was doing all that was possible to move forward as quickly as we could. All emails were replied to with no delays, even after the process had completed making us sure they were there to help with whatever we needed.

GoogleThe swiftest, most professional service I have ever received as a tenant in my 20 years of renting! Nothing was too much trouble and Wes was efficient, helpful and kind throughout. Can’t recommend Wes and Jack Taggart enough!

GoogleI would just like to share my experience of viewing properties with Sarah from Jack Taggart & Co. We were very impressed with her knowledge and great attitude as an agent. Although we are not proceeding with the 2 properties that we viewed I would feel very confident dealing with Sarah to help navigate the complex journey of buying a property. Thanks Sarah and hope you have another suitable property for us to view soon. Amanda

GoogleI very unexpectedly found myself looking for a new flat to rent earlier this year and for the most part it was quite a demoralising experience.
From my first contact with the agency (after which I literally made a note in my RightMove app that the agency seemed amazing), to securing a home and now being here a couple of months, I have been blown away.
Every individual I have dealt with has been great, but it is in particular Wes, who has really impressed me throughout the process. He is incredibly attentive (even phoning to check in whilst on paternity leave) and any issues I've had, he has swiftly dealt with.
Moving is such a stressful process and the team at Jack Taggart and Co made it far less so for me.
I have never known an estate agency to be so engaged and really seem to care about their tenants.
If you're looking for an agency that will treat you as an individual and will work with you, it really is worth contacting Jack Taggart and Co.

GoogleHe gets it done.
We’ve just sold our house and bought our new home, and I have to say, based on my experience, Jack @Jack Taggart & Co. is one of, if not the best estate agent I’ve ever dealt with.
Jack has been absolutely amazing from day one. Despite the many hurdles that come with buying and selling a home, Jack and his professional team made the whole process smooth and stress-free.
We achieved exactly what we wanted, thanks to Jack.
I honestly can’t recommend him highly enough

GoogleSarah was fantastic - when a property was coming to market that she knew I might like, she got in touch straight away so I was able to view while I was still in the area. She was friendly and knowledgeable and although I did not go on to purchase this property, she introduced me to a neighbourhood that I would not have considered before. I would certainly recommend Sarah.

GoogleCurrently renting our property out to tenants but refusing to pay us the rent. Tenants moved in on 2nd and have paid the rent so it isn’t an issue with them. We have spent all week ringing Jack Taggart asking when we will be paid and keep getting told different things. Customer service is a joke and I would avoid them if you’re planning on renting out your property. Didn’t want to leave a negative review but currently our property is getting rented out by them and they are not paying us and keeping the tenants payment.

GoogleI had an awful experience with this agent to the point where I have complained to The Property Ombudsman. The owner was very unprofessional, arrogant and pushy while I was trying to purchase a property. Knotweed was found within 7m of the property and I was waiting for a treatment plan to be put in place before proceeding which made him very impatient.
He even put the property back on the market without notifying me when I had already paid for the survey, solicitor etc.

GoogleWes was really interested and helpful in the process of renting the flat. I appreciate his effort and responsiveness to e-mails. The flat price was increased by £50 above the normally offered price because someone else who came to look at the flat offered £50 more. That was the only negative side for me. That's why I'm deducting 1 star. I didn't think it would turn into an auction. I haven't moved into the flat yet. Based on ongoing support, I may update here.

GoogleI had the best experience from Jack Taggart and Co. They were all very professional helping me to go through all the processes to get my current house. The response in all of my emails was super fast and the people working there are very friendly and nice. All the processes were done electronically and fast and they have services that do all the work for you in terms of contacting the council and utility companies. I was very satisfied by their services and the people. I would also like to say a massive thank you to Wes who supported me through all the process .

GoogleJack is the best Estate Agent that I have ever come across. We had a very complex sale. Jack took personal ownership of the sale and used his wide network of contacts to sell our property commercially. There were many curveballs that were thrown our way.
Jack was resilient and stuck to the task in hand. One thing that impressed me most was that he would always return my call at his earliest convenience and that is a rare asset these days.
All of the people involved in the sale were very pleased with his service.
Thanks Jack for all your hard work to make this happen. 👌

GoogleJack and his team have been superb. They supported us through the sales and purchase process and were always helpful, good humoured, and efficient. They were always available to speak to and promptly replied to any queries. Without their tireless efforts I’m unsure the chain would’ve held. We’re now happily living in our new forever home. I thoroughly and unreservedly recommend them - and have already done so to friends.

GoogleJack was amazing in selling our Property. I thought working from home would make it difficult but Jack and Phoebe and Felix made the whole process a breeze. He was there anytime we wanted to ask silly questions and gave great expert advice. He really knows the industry and was honest throughout. Jack Taggart and co are everything you need to sell your home and we will not think twice about using them in future. Thanks Jack Taggart and co 👌

GoogleWe have had the worst experience renting a property through this agent. The property is not fit for rental. A new build where the roof leaks, 7 weeks later and its still leaking. Water in tanks under the house that smell of sewage, Solar panels that dont work, lights that stay on, doors that scrape the floor, damp in the bedrooms. on taking hte keys we were fobbed of that its 30degrees in there as someone left the heating on. The heating was left on to try and dry a wet ceiling out from a roof leak that they denied ever happened. An inventory that we send an additional 120 photos with that where missed. Callie, was not helpful, apart from when she told us the roof had stopped leaking ( because it stopped raining)no shit sherlock!!! Promises after promises and cowboy builders who do nothing....... All 4 house in the terrace have the same issues and we are all being treated the same way. no respect and no remedy.
