GoogleForced to make a formal complaint over their (lack of) management of our property whilst we were overseas our complaint was upheld by the TPO which said it "supported the complaint that has been made and consider the circumstances merit an award of compensation. My award will reflect the avoidable aggravation, distress and inconvenience caused to the Complainant".
The award was woefully inadequate to cover the loss we incurred as a result of the very low bar set for "management". I wouldn't ever use CLC again.

In the interest of transparency regarding the above, and we only voice this so interested parties can see the whole picture, four complaints were made about us to The Property Ombudsman by Mr & Mrs Hall. Initially TPO found entirely in our favour on all counts but the Halls appealed (as was there right) and one of the five was reversed. We do not agree with the small level of compensation awarded but of course are immediately paying it and learning from it.

GoogleIf you are a landlord, avoid using this company at all costs. They have washed their hands of damage costing up £4000 to our property. They do not take responsibility or liability for work done through their workmen in your absence.
I stand by my review. Approach Corporate Letting with EXTREME CAUTION as a landlord. They are over confident and do not have the experience to deal with a high level let. The arbitrator abides by basic standards. You can not rely on this agent to pick up on tenant changing light fittings, redecorating, installing new fixtures to walls nor following up on the quality and satisfactory completion of maintenance work. Expect the very minimal level of service at best. Tip: ask to see examples of their inspection reports for similar level properties before entering an agreement. I have spoken to many local friends and acquaintances in Richmond who are shocked to hear the details of how they have managed our let.

This review was posted at about 10 am on the 5th September 2018. At 11 am on the 5th September 2018 we met with the landlord at the property for a visit which had been booked some days prior. These are not the actions of an agent "washing their hands" of an issue. The liability for the issue has yet to be determined and we continue to work with our clients to resolve it.
As an update on this review, Mr & Mrs Hall complained to the independent Property Ombudsman raising four specific "issues". The Property Ombudsman found all four complaints to be without merit.

GoogleIt was an entirely pleasant experience working with The Corporate Letting Company during our two years staying at one of their managed properties. Each one of the agents is courteous, professional, polite, responsive and solution orientated. Emails and phone enquiries are dealt with promptly. We had some time challenges on our side when leaving the property, and The CLC was very flexible and proactive in suggesting solutions on how to get everything done in a timely and cost-orientated manner.
I would recommend the CLC any time for tenants and landlords.

GoogleI can't recommend TCLC enough. We have been renting from them for over 2 year's and have found both Fiona and Alex extremely honest, helpful and professional at all times. We have contacted them on a few occasions with questions and if they could not answer them, got back to us the same day via phone or email. Their customer service is second to none and if I were to be looking to rent again in the areas they cover they would be my first point of contact.

GoogleFrom viewing the apartment to dealing with paperwork and requests, it is truly one of the greatest letting companies out there. We have felt safe and certain that everything will be handled well. Alex and Fiona have been nothing but professional, helpful and always there to explain even the silliest questions we have. They offer great advice and they are extremely kind, patient and understanding. Even the simplest task of viewing the apartment did not feel fake or hurried or forced, as it very often happens with most agents. I would definitely and happily recommend them to everyone I know.

GoogleWe have just purchased a flat through The Corporate Letting Company. As overseas residents, we took a chance and made an offer on the property without seeing it in person. Whatever reservations we may have had were quickly cast aside as Tim and Alex provided us with all relevant information on the property, including a detailed video walk-through (Alex even provided us with specific measurements) and Tim put us in touch with our Solicitor and Surveyor. They were in communication with us throughout the entire process leading up to the closing. Their high level of professionalism and knowledge of the area is exemplary and sad to say, rare in the business. The Corporate Letting Company is a class act! Highly recommended!!

GoogleWe couldn’t hope for a better letting agency. They manage the flat we have been living in for 4 years and have been perfect every single day.
They have been very patient and understanding when we arrived in the UK and took all the time needed for us to completely understand what was needed from us.
Everything has always been clearly and transparently explained.
We have visited lots of flats with different agencies and it is safe to say none of the other agencies have provided the same level of help and honesty.
I can only emphasise the quality of the service and would highly recommend them to owners and tenants.

GoogleI had an exceptional experience with Alex Decmar and The Corporate Letting Company. They are professional, courteous and quick to respond if you need anything. Case in point, I am back in the US and making a home purchase, Alex quickly sent the loan officer a copy of my previous lease and confirmed payments! My bank said it was the fastest response they had seen. I was devastated to leave Richmond and my amazing flat (83 Petersham flat #1 for those who are looking). If I have the chance to return The Corporate Letting Group will be my first stop asking if they have anything open from the amazing owner (and Becki his manager) that I was lucky enough to have found.

We have been using Corporate Letting to market our three-bedroom executive river-side apartment since they first started business in 2001. Corporate Letting have always been very professional in their dealings with us and, since 2001, have provided us with a virtually uninterrupted succession of first-class tenants to whom we have entrusted our property.
We have the utmost faith in Corporate Letting to continue to provide us with their services in the future and have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone with a high-class property to let.

Each member of his team deals with any enquiry be it a tenant or myself with extreme professionalism . Alex , is ever so helpful and I have never had any reason to doubt the integrity of the company. Extremely disappointed to see such a negative comment from a disgruntled tenant against such a reputable company. Such tenants should be blacklisted !!

GoogleI am a small Richmond landlord. Tim and his friendly team have been finding me fabulous tenants for over 20 years now. Forget the "corporate" part of their name as they offer a uniquely personal, warm and caring service to both landlords and tenants. They always have time for you and will go the extra mile to solve any problem, provide advice and work tirelessly to match a property with the right tenant.
Furthermore you're never cheated by them: they don't sting you with hidden charges and they are fair in every way. My tenants consistently give me the same feedback: "Tim and Alex have been a joy to work with."
