GooglePlacefirst, not only decided to buy a whole estate in Beeston, Leeds but then decided to issue a section 21 eviction notice, to do all the houses up so that they can make people reapply and change double the rent. It was so nice of you guys to evict one family two weeks before Christmas whith a disabled infant. I'm sure you all sleep well at night. 20+ families are being effected by this evil company. You hear about stuff like this in America not the U.K...

GoogleAvoid like the PLAGUE I moved out of one of there properties in 2018 got slapped with bill for over a 1000 pounds took the deposit form me charged for council tax when I was not living there .

GoogleI have lived in Morecambe for 11 years and have my business based in the area. It has been great to watch Placefirst take on such a huge project and do it so well that it's improved not only the area but the quality of rental accommodation for the people of Morecambe.
