Dirty bunch of crooks

Dirty bunch of crooks . Ignore all calls for repairs and leave a family with babies in poor conditions with damp, unrepaired dangerous conditions and when you have enpugh and move out they then reply to email very promptly accusing you of leaving the place a mess and saying you're at fault for all the repairs . Will do anything to keep deposits. STAY AWAY BAD COMPANY

Completely uncontactable for 3 weeks, no one ever responds to emails and the office is apparently empty at all times. If you need to move quickly avoid this agent

Avoid this agency at all costs

Avoid this agency at all costs. Yeovil Branch. Scam you out of the majority of your deposit return. They ignore all the Landlords failings when you move into the property with a list of faults and deduct pretty much all your deposit on handback with faults (such as mould) that you cannot prevent because of the condition of the room. Appalling treatment and completely unprofessional staff. They just wash their hands of you.

Excellent!!

I used Martin & Co in Dundee to sell my flat, I can't recommend Harry enough. Not only did he get me more than I first anticipated, it only took them 10 days from the flat being listed to an accepted offer. Brilliant!

My first time trying to let

I didn't end up finding a property through Martin and Co, but my experience with them was very good - I worked with a young woman named Charlotte who was very good at explaining the different steps of the process to me and helping me to understand what needed to be done (I am only 18 and this is my first experience in letting). Additionally, when my potential landlord let me down (through no fault of the company) I was able to speak to the manager who was very apologetic and then Charlotte continued to help me look at other places. Overall, my experience with Martin and Co (Westbury) was very positive.

Very bad communication, not responding to emails, not answering phone calls, took ages to get my deposit. They asked me to pay council tax after I left the property which was completely shocking,lost confidence dealing with them.

Great service!!

My experience so far with Martin and Co has been great! Liam has helped us in finding accommodation after very little help from other letting agents around Falmouth. After viewing a few properties with them they did not give up in helping us to find a home. They are polite, attentive and hardworking. They also have a website in which you can sign into your personal account to see all the information about your tenancy which is super helpful. We are looking forward to moving into our new home with thanks to Martin And Co.

Excellent

Having looked for a property for nearly 8 months, I had come to loath interacting with eattae agents. Martin and Co was a breathe of fresh air, specifically Claire in the Tamworth office, who was exceptional. Sadly we have not managed to get the deal away this time but I look forward to seeing what they have coming on in the future. She is a credit to this company.Ed

Not responsible

They are the worst letting agency I come across in the UK, they won’t respond to any complaint for months , we need to do multiple follow ups for any work to be done, they won’t bother about tenants issues / problems with the ongoing maintenance issues in the flat. I definitely never recommend to anyone to go with this agency.

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.
