Kept up to date at all times, chased up for me when needed. Thanks to the team at Keighley, another successful sale. Achieved best price possible would use Shaz and colleagues again should the need arise

Want a laugh?

Currently sat in a house with patio doors that won't close, it's 0 degrees and also a security issue.They'll have someone come back to me in the morning apparently. No rush Martin and co.... I'll just gladly sit here with icicles on my balls!

Very responsive Reading team

Very responsive team in the Reading (Whitley Street) office. Stephen Dyal has been particularly helpful in resolving any issues we have had, being on hand at any time, including coming out to fix our boiler at the weekend. Thanks Martin & Co Reading team!

Poor care of tennants

We rented a property through Martin and Co. Would never do so again. Despite problems with the property we didn't create a fuss and made the best of it. On leaving we left the property spotless but were charged for several hours of cleaning including cleaning of grout in the bathroom shower. Sure that was in the contract. But it really amounts to abuse of tennants and profiteering.At one point we were asked to allow the entry of a plumber to inspect the boiler. My wife came home early only to find the plumber in our bedroom, which was odd given the boiler was in the kitchen. The following week I noticed my passport was missing. It never turned up even upon leaving the property 3 months later. Martin and Co were rude and patronising on informing them about the missing passport, they couldn't understand why someone might take a passport. "Identify theft" clearly wasn't something they'd heard of. Disgraceful company. Avoid.

The staff at the Cardiff office were great. But Steph was a legend! So polite, so helpful and great communication skills. Made it all so much easier. Having used a few places this office was the best so far.

I would not be writing a negative review unless I thought it was necessary. If you are letting a property beware. It’s a shame I have to write this review because the initial move-in went quite smoothly. So for the first 8 weeks (throughout winter) the heating didn’t work. After many weeks, approximately 8. Of back and forth emails and telephone calls and going into there office to complain it eventually got done.So since leaving the property and trying to get my deposit returned, there have been a few discrepancies. Though firstly I would like to add that I had a tv on the wall, so had filled the wall holes with filler, though I never got round to painting over the small area. Though I have been told that I have to pay £300 for this to be painted, and the bathroom ceiling because of condensation ! £50 to mow a 6x8 ft piece of lawn And £150 to have the property cleaned. All of which was done thoroughly before I left. Which I have receipts for steam cleaning the carpets and painting the white walls of the property, both by highly reputable businesses in Leamington to bring back to the exact standards what were met when I arrived.This is ongoing and I’m refusing to pay the costs I’ve been presented with. Be aware.

AVOID WHEN POSSIBLE: DISCRIMINATORY AND UNPREFESSIONAL

AVOID WHEN POSSIBLE: DISCRIMINATORY AGENTSI have been looking for a property to rent for a while. On Monday morning I was refreshing rightmove when a property listed by this people appeared. It ticked all of my boxes, so I immediately (within 2 minutes of the property appearing online) I sent them an email showing clear interest and requesting a viewing, including my non-British name. I was emailed 6 hours later saying they'll be in touch. I did not get a reply until the next day in the afternoon, where I was told the property already had "a couple" of viewings, and most likely the landlord will take them (notice, no offers where made at that point). After that I called several times, once being told someone would be in touch with me and they never did. I was ghosted for another day until I was fed up and called on a Wednesday. On the phone they put on this pantomime of trying to help, they even offered me a (to be confirmed by current tenet availability) a viewing for the next day in the early morning. This was at midday Wed. I heard nothing about them until the afternoon when at 17:29, one minute before their offices close, the same agent that ghosted me all week send me an email saying a let was agreed. In a market that moves so fast, I was not able to get a reply in less than within 24 hours, even less a viewing!PLEASE AVOID! I hope there would be an official entity to which report this.

I’ve had a great experience with my new local agent Martin & Co Streatham. From the beginning I let Anthony know that there was a deadline for my child’s school application and they went above and beyond so we exchanged contacts on time! Hubby and I are over the moon. Thank you especially to Anthony. From Shelly and Paul (Happy customers)

Unprofessional and discriminatory practice

AVOID THIS LETTING AGENT!My girlfriend and I wanted to rent a 2 bed flat for about 12 months. We were eligible for renting it (income was 2x what was required, right-to-rent, credit history etc.) and also could guarantee the 12 months of rent based on our savings account.On the phone, I was told I could apply for it, so I was happy to continue with their process. Sent an email with our details (including our names, which are not british). Following that exact email, we started being ghosted by martinco for about 3 days, until I had enough and phoned them.On the phone they told me they already had many viewings on that day, and if I wanted to apply I would have to view first, contrary to what I was told before. Even worse is that they offered us a viewing a week later, which meant they had time to go through every single application from the first viewings and keep us as a backup...It is very clear to us that they changed their opinion about us as applicants the moment they received the email with our full names, which can be considered as discrimination as we were fully qualified to apply for that property.AVOID THIS COMPANY AT ALL COSTS! You can tell by reading all the reviews about them, that they practice shady tactics and are not a professional letting agency.

Be weary when signing a contract as a tenant.Our contract had a fixed 12 month term, which afterwards automatically switched to a rolling 1 month notice. This flexibility was one of the reasons we picked the property.However at the end of the initial term, Martin & Co. insisted that we sign a new fixed term contract.We were happy to accept a rent increase, but not another fixed term contract, as we are in the process of buying a property at the moment, but Martin & Co flat out refused to continue with the existing contract which allowed for this to be done quite easily.While this is within their legal rights, it is against the spirit in which the original contract was signed. Putting a clause in the contract that they had no intention of adhering to feels like they are just deliberately misleading their tenants.Long story short, be sure that you read your terms carefully, and do not expect Martin & Co to respect anything except the fully binding clauses. Do not consider only the things they say they will do, but think about what they are technically allowed to do, and only if you are happy with that, sign.

Written from a landlords point of view on a managed contract. They have no interest in looking after your asset and offer a self serving service with single source of over inflated non transparent estimates which they won't provide breakdowns against for the damage they have allowed to happen by the tenants they couldn't care less about...avoid and look past the telephone manner and empathy
