GoogleAtrocious service. We were charged for things that we did not cause and a lot of our queries were ignored. We were not provided with any dated proof of any damages and were just simply charged. Iβve been back and forth demanding proof and have not been given any. There were clearly things they wished to replace in the house at the start, as they charged all tenants for the same thing (same price also). We cleaned the house to a higher standard than it was when we moved in and were charged for professional cleaning. Itβs unbelievable how this agency likes to take advantage of students as many are naive to this kind of thing and will usually keep their heads down and accept the charges. Will definitely be telling my friends to stay away from this place.

Dear Arthur,
Iβm sorry youβre not happy with our service. I canβt locate your details in a property of ours, but can assure you we always try and ensure as a company, we are clear with our processes, standards and requirements when checking in & out.
Any deductions made are normally on the request of the landlord and in line with the inventory that would have been provided at the commencement of your tenancy.
Photographic evidence is available and as member of the TDS your deposit is fully protected should you disagree with any deductions proposed.
We would welcome the opportunity to address your concerns and hopefully find a solution to remedy this.
Please contact me directly either by phone 01926 354400 or email grantthoday@handlesproperty.co.uk and I will look into this for you.

GoogleVery professional, all the process (Move in & Move out) was smooth. I had 1 maintenance issue during my tenancy and I had a worker within 2 hours.
Chardonnay was my viewing agent, and Marc was my agent for the moving out process, both very kind and efficient.
I had to move due to a change of city, but I had a good experience in the 18 months I was a tenant with Handles.

I especially want to thank Marc Martin for his quick and elegant responses and follow-ups.

GoogleHandles are the worst letting agents I have ever used in nearly 8 years of being a student. If youβre a student in Leamington stay clear. They are useless, rude, condescending and take advantage of students.
They take no responsibility for engaging with the tenants and passing on concerns to the landlord and ignore requests for any issues you raise via their portal. Good job I had the landlords contact info.
And to top it all off at the end of the tenancy they will take as much money from your deposit as possible without any reason and charge you illegally for a professional clean which is not required anymore by law.
Such a shame as the Landlord was excellent.

GoogleWe cannot thank Mark from sales enough. His constant communication, support, advise and active role in buying a property has be outstanding. Unfortunately, we cannot say the same about the estate agent we chose, if we were to sell in the future, we will definitely pick Mark to sell our property, as he goes above and beyond. Mark, Thank you for everything you have done for myself and Jorge. You have been amazing, we will pop in to the office and thank you in person once we are more settled in our new home.

GoogleAs a student renting property in Leamington Spa, I couldnβt recommend Handles more when it comes to choosing a letting agency. My housemates and I have been with Handles for a year now, and we have renewed our contract with them for another year. Handles have always been incredibly helpful and very quick to respond to any questions, which is important for someone renting for the first time. The people who work there are really kind and friendly, especially Fiona, who has supported us throughout the year.

GoogleI rented a student property through handles and can say that the process was very easy with them. As the property was managed through handles it was very easy to report maintenance issues and there was always someone following up on repairs etc which was very good. We also had an on going problem with one of our flatmates but can say that handles was very good and understanding with us, there was always someone answering the phones and emails. A special thanks to Daniel Taylor-Dyer who was very kind to us and always went above and beyond to help as best as he could.

GoogleWe enquired about the availability of a property a short while ago which turned out to no longer be available. Tatiana then took a note of all our requirements, budget and locations preferences and found us a great shortlist of properties and before long we were in a property we both really like. They made the process smooth and easy for us without loads of admin fees, unlike most letting agents.

GoogleI have been delighted with the service I have received from Handles letting service over the last 2 years. In particular earlier this year when a large flood due to a frozen pipe needed an insurance claim. Handles, in particular Charlie Baker, took it on with organising meeting with loss adjuster, alternative accommodation for tenants and very prompt repairs to enable tenants to move back in as soon as possible. As I live 2 hours away from the property I rely on Handles to fully manage it and Daniel and Charlie never let me down. I can fully recommend them without reservation.

His enthusiasm in a craft heβs clearly passionate about, coupled with reliable and honest communication enabled us to secure the keys to what we believe will be our forever home. Many thanks to you and your team for your assistance throughout and we hope you have a Merry & Fulfilling Christmas.
