Poor service and disappointing behaviour after tenancy agreement

After completing our tenancy with Gascoigne halman. Despite leaving the property in what we believed to be a clean and acceptable condition. We received a £550 deposit claim, including charges for cleaning (£250), decoration and painting (£150), and a radiator leak (£115). I have rented this apartment for 1 year.When we first moved into the property, it was in poor condition and had a noticeable odour. We raised this with the agency several times, but no action was taken.

Zainab from Gascoigne Halman Bramhall is genuinely instrumental in ensuring that succeeded in getting our beautiful home. She managed the process professionally by answering all of our queries promptly, arranging for further viewings, coordinating and managing the solicitors, keeping us informed proactively and ensuring a successful completion within the pre-agreed timelines. To top it all, her pleasant personality and a smiling demeanour makes everyone comfortable. We highly recommend Zainab and Gascoigne Halman Bramhall.

Awful management and communication

As per all the other negative reviews - terrible communication - poorly written emails, unprofessional in manner and just awful to deal with. From moving into property, water pressure issues and constant cold showers. After months of back and forth was told (by a manager) 'oh well you are on a rolling contract, so you can just find another property' as appose to just having the issue fixed? Turns out it was a pump needed for the boiler, and of course the landlord did not want to pay as it was 'expensive'. It wasn't. Paying over a grand a month for no hot showers and terrible management is expensive. Clearly they prioritise landlords and not tenants. We left as suggested and do not recommend for renting at all - save your self the stress and sour puss faces.

Highly recomment Gascoigne Halman in Macclesfield

After 3 aborted sales with Purple Bricks which consumed 14 stressful months due to lack of support, wrong price, no vetting of purchasers, etc., etc. I decided to use Gascoigne Halman in Macclesfield to sell our house. Within 1 week Matthew Clark and his team had vetted a new purchaser who was right for our property, truly had the funds, and was highly likely to follow through to completion (which they did).I can't recommend Gascoigne Halman enough for their proactive advice and follow-up, aiding the purchaser and keeping me informed. I found them friendly and easy to communicate with. No waiting for someone to answer the phone for inquiries and prompt replies on email. When the exchange of contacts and completion time came, they helped pressure crucial solicitor communication so that we met the target dates keeping me (the seller) and the purchaser happy. I can't recommend Gascoigne Halman in Macclesfield enough. Thanks, folks, you deserve the credit, and will be using you again for another property sale.

Negligent - Do not rent from them

My husband and I moved into a property managed by letting agents Gascoigne Halman in Chapel en le Frith in November 2022. From the start we had major issues with the property; it hadn't been cleaned, the water pressure was terrible, in fact prior to us moving in after pointing out some defects during a viewing the electricity board had to be brought in to make the electrics safe! There was rubbish left in the loft and cellar and an open manhole cover with standing water in the basement with a pump in it. We had been told this was a usable storage space by the agents. It was not. It flooded more than once ruining our property and was horrendously damp. The wetness in the cellar rose through the house making it constantly damp and mouldy. The window frames were so rotten you could push your finger through them. The front door lock was insecure and you could push the door open with a hard shove.The shower seal was leaky and caused staining downstairs. The shower barely worked then stopped altogether. I believe the property would have been below the required EPC rating for letting if it were tested last year.These are just a few of the catalogue of defects. (I have photographic evidence of all of this). It took months to get some these things rectified and over 200 emails. I have made clear that one of my emails be treated as an official complaint but nothing has come of it. Often we were simply told 'the landlord doesn't want to spend any more money on the property'.We requested a reduced rent rate from £900 to £500 expecting a negotiation with the landlord. He took over a month to respond and then offered £850 despite our explaining the extensive damage to our property and us having paid for a shed to move our things from the cellar. The agents then sent messages chasing arrears. After continuing to press for the landlord to fulfill his legal obligations we were eventually hand delivered a section 21 notice (our tenancy should have run until November and they delivered this in June which I think may be in breach of the rules). The landlord claimed to not be able to afford repairs and needed to sell the property. This all happened over an 8 month period and I have to believe there is some sort of recourse for us. The property should not have been let in that state and we should be able to claim damages for our ruined property and loss of income (I work from home as a contractor). Having rented for over 20 years I have never had such a terrible experience. We moved back to Chapel to be closer to my elderly parents to care for them and now because of the lack of affordable, appropriate property we have had to move further away ultimately making them suffer. We have contacted the property ombudsman who have advised we have a case against Gascoigne Halman we just need to to follow it up. We have managed to find a private let and now moved at great personal expense through no fault of our own. Our new property is clean, well cared for and seems heaven after 9 Cross Street.

We used Gascoigne Halman (Bramhall) for both the purchase and sale of two properties. Each time we were lucky enough to work with Meghan. She has been fantastic from start to finish, always professional and stepping in when needed to smooth things between buyers, sellers and solicitors! Very customer focused and a credit to the company. Thanks to Nick too for everything. Highly recommended.

I would give less stars if possible

I would give less stars if possible During the tenancy it started already. the garage door fell down TWICE. and it took them 10 months to fix. Only when i started to not pay the full rent they started acting fixing it 2 months before we needed to leave the premisis Altough they make a check in and check out report they dont look at it. Claiming ridiculous amounts of money for things that where already like that before we moved in as visible on the checkin report. We've been waiting for 2months now to get our deposit back and they keep answering once every 3weeks if we're lucky and if they read our 10emails every 3 weeks to remind them

If I could give them 0 stars I would.

If I could give them 0 stars I would. From the outset they seem great, but as soon as the agreement is signed they stop caring about anything except getting the rent in each month. They'll happily let themselves in without speaking to you, they say that they only have to send an email 24hrs in advance. They never return calls. They ignore maintenance requests and then try to say that you damaged things that never worked and were highlighted on the initial move in. As for returning your deposit, I am currently going through a claim against them through the dps as after 4 weeks of vacating at the end of tenancy, they have not done a thing woth regards to authorising the return of deposit. Once you aren't paying them rent anymore, they won't return calls, messages, emails. Go in in person and funnily enough, "oh sorry, they've left for the day and I work in a different dept. I'll leave them a message and get them to call you in the morning" AVOID AT ALL COSTS

A great service from the Bramhall branch when selling our house. They knew the area really well and in particular our road. Towards exchange and completion things got a little difficult with the parties at the bottom of the chain. Sophie was able to step in and help liaise with then different parties. Would highly recommend.

We used Gascoigne Halman (Bramhall) to let a property. Having just come to the UK and not knowing how the process worked, Jan Taylor was absolutely fantastic and kind - taking us through the process with kindness and understanding. We really are so grateful and recommend Gascoigne Halman to anyone that needs service tailored to specific needs.

We have been incredibly pleased with the service, friendliness and professionalism of everyone at Gascoigne Halman Bramhall during the recent sale of our home. Dan, as branch manager, has worked tirelessly from his first visit to us for a valuation right through to completion. His expert advice, availability and positivity really helped us though this process, especially when we lost a buyer in the early stages. Russell, our mortgage advisor, was also extremely supportive and knowledgeable throughout, securing a mortgage and answering our many questions! We are eternally grateful to the whole team for making what is known to be a stressful experience, as smooth as possible for us.

'Its a landlord's / Agencies world.. we just live in it'

'Its a landlord's / Agencies world... and we all just live in it'.. I recently rented a house in Frodsham and on return of the property, despite a gold star check out report, the lack of communication regarding my deposit refund was horrific.. multiple calls, emails, 'I can't reach the Landlord', 'let me check and get back to you' it became farcical. I was then hit with an 80% claim by the landlord against my deposit for made up broken items and repairs. The check out team in Macclesfield did not care, emails not responded to, nonsense chatter blaming the Frodsham branch who apparently were in conversations with the landlord regarding re listing the property, however the check out team in Macclesfield could not reach him. The emphasis clearly was to talk to the landlord about more money for him, more money for GH and just leave me and hopefully I will go away. I asked to speak to the branch manager at Macclesfield who did call me, she also didn't know what was going on so said she would follow up and help. Needless to say this was the one and only time I heard from her, not even a courtesy call or anything... I obviously rejected the claim by the landlord and fast forward 4 months since we left the property, the DPS have awarded our deposit in almost its entirety, so the greed of the landlord did not win in this case, quite rightly... and if GH would have consulted with him and me better from the start we maybe could have avoided such a mentally straining 4 months for me. I understand they are acting on the landlords wishes, however, the sheer disregard for the tenant was freighting. I now own a property so renting is not something I plan on doing in the near future, however should the need arise, I will never use GH again for their services, nor will I engage with them in any future business. Note - this mainly refers to the Macclesfield Branch.

Totally manipulating the applicants

Totally manipulating the applicants. Before viewing mentioned about two tenants and the staff arranged the viewing. Now they are telling me they can’t allow two tenants.
