Me and my girlfriend rented a flat from Martin & Co Southend. They are the worst agents we ever experienced - we had an attempted break-in at our property and it took them 7 days to send round a locksmith to fix the front door lock to our flat! Yes, they left us with a broken front door lock for 7 days!!! They wouldn't respond to emails, calls or voicemails. Initially they refused to fix the locks and said it was our responsibility to pay for a locksmith (even though the letting contract stated otherwise). We had to threaten legal action to get them to actually send someone to fix the door... Whatever you do, DON'T RENT FROM THESE SHARKS!!!!!

Bunch of fraudsters
Bunch of fraudsters. They take your holding deposit, they hire some third party referencing company that fails you and the they don't give you enough evidence or reasons as to why they failed you. When you try to contact their referencing agency they direct you

‘Thanks to Rose for her help and rapid response to my maintenance issue for my rental flat in Southend. The ‘Can Do’ attitude at Martin & Co is so refreshing!’

I have used the services of Martin & Co., Southend, for three years now. Their staff are always polite and responsive. More than that, they have been effective. I had water damage from a leaking cylinder, and Martin & Co dealt with the insurance claim, the repairs, the redecorations and everything. I think the Group has a great service too as I use two other Martin & Co. offices in different parts of the country. They all email monthly statements to me like clockwork - makes it easy for me to administer from my end, as I live abroad. Well done guys!

I have been using Martin & Co for the past 6 years and have always found Tony Lindberg and his staff to be very professional, helpful and polite. During that time they have found me two excellent tenants who have never been a problem at all. Martins have provided me with good service and advice over the years regarding my properties and have never found them lacking in any way. The six monthly inspection is thorough and the report is very reassuring. Any maintenance work required is carried out by one of their recommended tradesmen and I have found their quotes always very competitive. I would thoroughly recommend Martin & Co to fellow Landlords with no hesitation.

Martin and Co Southend have handled my mother's property for over 12 years. They have dealt with difficulties ranging from the smallest to the most unusual and always with efficiency and an eye to cost. I believe the tennents were also very satisfied. Now the property is up for sale Martins have done all the necessary preparations again very much to our satisfaction. We do not live in Southend and have sometimes had to deal with issues from Spain. Their efficiency cannot be bettered in my opinion. Annette Kilworth

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.

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.
