GoogleI just bought my first flat through Leaders Forest Hill. All the staff there were extremely friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and facilitated the sale with a high level of competence and understanding. Unlike a lot of estate agents I've crossed paths with they actually did find out the answers to my questions and queries, were always reachable and followed up when they said they would. They facilitated numerous visits to the property without fuss and mediated conversations between me and the vendor expertly. They made no attempt to aggressively cross-sell financial products as I've found other agents do and listened and responded to my concerns seriously. Always ready with helpful advice at each stage of the sale; I couldn't have asked for more; a very positive experience. I would recommend them if you're buying or selling.

GoogleBefore moving in, we were talking with Selwyn. He was very available, very efficient, we had never seen such a good agent. We were very happy.
When we moved in, we found the house in a very very dirty state. After asking for a receipt or some cleaning for 2 weeks, we found out the cleaning was made a month before we moved in. I believe any clean family cleans at least twice a month - especially when the property is big - so the state of the property was beyond any living state. We asked for proper cleaning and it was refused. We asked the manager of the agency who told us " you refused as you already had taken care of it". We hadn't yet and then asked for some proper cleaning but it was refused, we were told to leave the property as dirty as we found it.
When we moved in, the fridge was not working. Our agent, Ieva, called a couple times some technicians and then gave up. By that time, they had left for some vacation. I found out by calling them myself, as Ieva wasn't doing it. When we threatened to find someone ourselves and ask her manager for reimbursement, it took her 5 minutes to find a technician. That took a whole week without a fridge.
We are still waiting for feedback after the comments we made about the inventory, more than two weeks ago. We also mentioned the bathroom's fan that is not working and didn't get any answer about it.
The wooden walls of the garden are falling apart and toads set up because it is humid and rotting. Again we are waiting for any reaction from the agent, nothing seems to happen.
After all these issues, we thought maybe it was Ieva who was not doing her job efficiently. After emailing the manager, Graeme, it seems to be okay with this and in the same state of mind as her. We are very very disappointed. We were so happy to find some good agent and they just end up being the worst we ever had.

GooglePlease return my deposit.
I moved out from the flat on Silverdale on 31st Dec. 2015. And you should return my deposit within 10 days by Teneacy Deposit Scheme.
I'm so disppointed to find you are so irresponsible regrding to ending contract. I remember you guys were so friendly when I made the contract on Mach 2014.
I have never delayed to pay my rent and I kept myself cooperative to you guys while I was living the flat.
I really don't want waste my time to chase you for the deposit and believe that you guys have some morality just like the most ot the Britishes I have met when I was in the UK.
Please reply to my emails and return my deposit as soon as possible.

Hi there. I have spoken to the branch regarding this and have been informed by the branch manager that we are waiting for you to confirm deposit release. There was damage to the kitchen worktop, and it was agreed during the tenancy that this would come out of your deposit. If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact the branch directly.

GoogleSince moving into the property (3 months ago) we have had a number of issues.
These issues include basic heating and the appearance of live mould in our property - Leaders have not been very proactive in helping us dealing with the issues and left us to deal directly with the developers who, really, have nothing to do with tenancy agreement we agreed. I find myself chasing Leaders property mgmt for assistance/resolution with issues with have in our property.

GoogleWe have been using Leaders for couple of years now and find their services very professional and transparent. Leaders at Forest Hill recently rented out our 2 Bed flat in Battersea within a week of taking the property on.
Mr Selwyn Pacheco, from the Forest Hill branch was very thorough in his approach ensuring that all areas both from Landlord and tenants perspectives were adequately covered. His expert opinion was very useful throughout the process and communication was prompt and very helpful.
Will I use them again? Certainly yes!

Their courteous and professional service has meant we have been able to relax and let them take the strain.

They are responsive and proactive and make property management a breeze. Highly recommended.
