irresponsible, frustrating

we have called them tomake an offer so many times then we have been told to wait for an email when we called back we have been told that there were too many offers so we cant make one, it was soo frustrating to hear that as we could of made an offer but due to their irresponsible behaviour I will never try to do anything with this company

Avoid at all costs also from a Landlord…

Avoid at all costs also from a Landlord perspective. Property not managed, promises of return calls which do not happen, when you ring them you find that the person who was supposed to return call is either on holiday or has left the company ......

I’ve been using this company for years

I’ve been using this company for years. They have always been professional and done their best for me. I don’t understand why there are so many 1 star reviews and suspect that are from a competitor. I also have noticed the complete lack of 2 and 3 star reviews which is strange.

Just trying to get details of a property posted on Rightmove but they are totally unresponsive, I don't think they are a real company and Rightmove should investigate and remove them from its sight.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Hello Doug. I am the owner of martin and co. We have been here for 20 years and are part of a national franchise. We are in a national lock down which means our reply may take longer than normal as we are being covid safe and working from home. Please email me on tony.lindberg@martinco.com I hope you reconsider your 1 star review at this time. I await your email. Thank you.

Janice at Martin and Co Liverpool South…

Janice at Martin and Co Liverpool South has been fantastic for the last year during a challenging property sale. Very supportive and pro-active. Can't recommend this team enough.

Bad experience

Bad experience! When it was time to received the deposit they did a report (check in and check out of the flat). The problem is that we never did it at the beginning and only them did it so they said the flat was perfect without any type of damage. We waited 3 weeks for our deposit because what they said in the report of check out was totally wrong. Never again with them!

Have been with Martin and Co for 3 years now and they have always helped us if there has been a problem. When we moved in it was a quick and easy process. One of the better estate agents around!!

You cannot choose a worse agent

They seem very helpful until you pay those ridiculous fees and then all of a sudden they become horribly unprofessional. You have to remind them of your requests several times and even then they don't act. They ignore your emails or, in the lucky case, answer them in one sentence. At the end they try to rip you off your deposit a claim even more for non-existing 'damage' of the property. Run away from them!

Great Help

The services, including managing and maintaining of the property, I that I have received from Martin & Co. Glasgow have been great. They have always been very efficient in communication on every side. It really has helped me taking off the stress and time.

Great service & very professional. We used Martin & Co when letting out our property, and worked alongside Leanne Jones (one of there letting agents), she was always there to answer any questions and she found us perfect tenants. Martin & Co carried out all the relevant referencing and always supplied us with a copy of there findings. As I said, Martin & Co provided a great service and for a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend!!

Having dealt with Martin & co for over 18 months as a tenant, I can't speak highly enough of their professionalism and "can do" attitude. Will definitely use again, they try their hardest and nothing is too much trouble.

they lied to me and shouted at me.

they lied to me and many issues.they raise their voices .. not polite at all..they charged me beyond what is required for the last payment...they failed to do most of the required repairs. for this point..the landlord has a big share of the responsibility...

We have used them twice

We want to praise Andrew Lester of Martin & Co Prestwich personally for doing such a good job. We chose him to sell our property for us because he was so good when we bought it almost five years ago, and this time was the same high standard.We hope that not only clients such as ourselves but also solicitors realise how fortunate they are when they have him as the estate agent.

Absolutely disgusting

Absolutely disgusting. Everyone for the group booking turned up and we were told 30 mins later it was cancelled. When we rang up they were completely unprofessional and rude on the phone. Don't think they realise people have to pay money and take time off work to get to theae viewings
