TrustpilotEstate Agent who does not know what they are doing
Contacted Hose Rhodes Dickson twice now about a property that is coming to the market soon.I first contacted them about 6 months ago and last week.NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW ANY DETAILS OF THE PROPERTY THAT IS DISPLAYING ONE OF THEIR BOARDS.Does not give me confidence buying or selling through this Agent..IT TOOK OVER 6 MONTHS FOR HOSE RHODES DICKSON TO REPLY, VERY DISAPPOINTING.

GoogleIt's a real shame that HRD monopolise island lettings, because they are the absolute worst. We've rented through them twice, and their managed properties were absolutely filthy upon moving in.
Our last property took 3 days to clean, during which time our furniture had to be put into storage, and our children had to stay with family.
A month after moving in, we awoke in the middle of the night to a torrential leak. An indoor water feature, you might say. We only heard it because we were sleeping in the living room. Why, you might ask? Because the carpets were being replaced 2 days after Christmas because they were motheaten and heavily worn and stained. HRD knew all this before we moved in, but didn't sort it before we lived there, so we had to move ALL our furniture into a small bedroom while the carpets were refitted.
5 years later, we moved out, and no the leak still hadn't been fixed. Absolute joke. THE DAY BEFORE WE MOVED OUT a builder came by to do a quote for the required work. I mean, are you actually kidding me?!
They did nothing for us, and after we left they attempted to withhold our sec deposit which is a p-take considering the filth we moved into.
And they also charged £75 a year just to renew our tenancy. Daylight robbery.
I heartily steer anybody who asks for advice away from HRD, but the sad thing is, the majority of island lettings are through them. We will never rent through them again.

An exceptional team led by Peter with huge dedication and professionalism. Whether you are a buyer or a seller, I cannot imagine you will find better than Peter. In a difficult transaction he consistently went above and beyond. Moving house is difficult enough - my advice would be to use Hose Rhodes Dickson Freshwater.

GoogleProcess of renting was great and they were extremely responsive.
However, when it comes to paying back your deposit, there is a lack of communication and they are slow to pay you back even when the landlord has released the deposit.
Overall shows a lack of professionalism when it comes to closing a job.
