GoogleI was extremely happy with the service provided by Leila Sadeghi. She always responded extremely quickly to any emails and actioned any requests successfully and promptly. I always felt very assured knowing she was working on our behalf when a sale I was involved in ran into some delays. Consequently I am very thankful Leila for all her hard work and help! I would strongly recommend her!PositiveQuality

GoogleHad multiple disappointing viewings with spencer harvey. I've rarely been to a viewing with these guys where they havent been atleast 5 minutes late with the two worst times both being just over half an hour late. Houses are often grimy/mouldy (which is the responsibility of the landlord but the agents love to act surprised and offer to point it out to the landlord) Last straw was being called a liar by the rude girl on the phone saying they'd contacted me 'multiple times and left lots of voicemails' despite calling just 90 minutes once before the viewing itself. If you're going to cancel viewings after calling 90 minutes before, I wont be viewing any other properties with you guys.

GoogleI was previously with another estate agent before a colleague recommended Spencer Harvey ……I am so pleased I changed! My house was sold by Spencer Harvey within a day of it being on the market 😊The service they offered and the marketing collateral is of the highest quality. Leila (my agent) was absolutely fantastic. Throughout the sale she was regularly in touch with the buyer and solicitors ensuring the sale of the house was moving in the right direction. She was more then happy to help with all of my queries (there were a lot) and updated me on the same day. Without Leila the sale of my property would have been extremely stressful. I cannot recommend this estate agent highly enough. Thank you again Leila and the rest of the team at Spencer Harvey, wishing you all the best.

GoogleI’m very disappointed by the agent. Looking at all this pictures it says it all. The property was not ready, things are broken, heating system is not working, no hot water to bath, in this whether, I have to suffer the cold with my son who is under the age of 5, he is a toddler. I’m traumatised by this whole situation. I’m disappointed and discouraged to live under this roof. After paying all the required amount we still live a discomfortable life. No doors of the house are closing. Bathroom basin is not functional. Kitchen floor is filthy, and needs a replacement. It’s like we are living for free, we are very traumatised by what I have to go through with my family.

GoogleFollowing an issue that arose with a property, I attempted to discuss this with the team and manager, the response was poor and the manager was rude, I asked how to make a complaint (which I was reluctant to do), I was told to go on the website and email it, which I did, over a week later, still no response which is a shame as at the start I thought it was a good company, I will say, the majority of the team are great.

GoogleHorrible experience despite never missing a payment and always remaining polite and courteous to them.
A particular staff member there is by far the most obnoxious sociopath I've ever come across.
Even the maintenance man said he tries to avoid visiting the branch so that he doesn't have to speak to her.
She accused me of making excuses not to move into the flat before we even got the keys. She was always rude to us for no reason and accused us of being secretive about wanting to leave after the six month contract was at an end, even though we still had weeks to give our notice.
They didn't fix the letter box that people could easily take out of on the street. They didn't want to fix the shower door that was heavy and off its hinges. They didn't want to fix the fridge door that had the main tray constantly coming off, because it was glued on.
They allowed other residents of the apartment block to leave unwanted furniture crammed at the bottom of the stairs.
The windows needed replacing because they were stained and let a lot of draft into the flat.
The boiler kept breaking down, and we had no emergency repairs available, so there were days without heating at times.
Horrible experience and we are glad to be clear of this rogue letting agency.

GoogleA Little Warning - Do not Rent through Spencer Harvey Stockport
I rented a property through this company for over a year, hardly any repairs were reported during the tenancy, however when two urgent repairs were to the oven and boiler, it took weeks for it to be resolved with no updates, unless the staff were chased continuously and even then I received different information from several people in the office.
I have now moved out of the property. Over Two weeks have passed and it has, and still is an absolute nightmare to receive my large deposit back from them! Funnily enough, I am no further forward than when I left the property!
They continuously try and hold the process up and look to deduct in any way shape or form, and even before returning your deposit, asking for final bills and statements for all utilities and council tax which isn't even a legal requirement.
On giving a months notice they forget you still live there and continually hound you for viewing access.
As an additional extra it is within all ASTs that you pay for a professional carpet clean at the end of your tenancy.
Through my years of renting with other agencies, I can honestly say that I have never experienced anything like this company. They are only interested in keeping their landlords happy and are not working at your best interest.
Please take my advice and do not rent with Spencer Harvey.
If you are currently renting from this company and are leaving, please request to be present for the check out (not something that is even offered) as they will not allow you access afterwards and therefore another excuse to deduct further monies from your deposit.
Lastly if you are relying on your deposit for another property you will be in for a very long and exhausting wait!

Dear Taufiq Ud Din,
We are so sorry to hear about your experiences with Spencer Harvey. We are grateful for you taking your personal time to leave us a review, as any feedback moves us in the right direction to be able to adjust our operations.
Regarding your comments about the inventory, if I may explain there are so many important factors when it comes to letting and managing a property and the inventory is a crucial document, as it gives transparency to all parties involved. So much so we use an independent inventory clerk to compile this report. Your inventory was 40 pages long and included detailed photos and descriptions of all the items and rooms in the property you were renting.
You signed the inventory and were given 7 working days to raise any concerns you had with the report. At the end of any tenancy we manage, we then ask our independent clerk to carry out a check out inventory and compare this with the ingoing report, allowing for fair wear and tear based on the term of the tenancy. We then report back to the parties (tenant and Landlord) with our findings, if any.
At that point, if an agreement can’t be reached both parties have the option to then take this matter for free to the Tenancy Deposit Scheme where an independent adjudicator will access the facts and award who they see fit. This was again explained in the tenancy agreement and the prescribed information you also signed.
I totally agree with your advice you have offered in your review, as it is crucial you satisfy yourselves with the accuracy of the inventory, this is something written in the report and also relayed at the point of move in by our team. In fact, before you move anything into your new home it is essential you take the time to inspect the condition, take any photos and report back to Spencer Harvey within 7 working days if you disagree with anything stated in the inventory.
Once again, thank you for your time and we wish you all the very best.
