FacebookBy far the worst letting agent I have ever dealt with. When they first registered me for a gas bill, which was included in the rent, I still thought shit happens - then two month after the complaint I get a water bill. Toom the landlord and me weeks to sort all of it out, as Townends either had no idea or was plain unhelpful. Just when we thought their mess was fixed they canceled my registration with council tax (which was not included) and it took another three month to get things fixed! It does not help that no one ever replies to e-mails, the branch doesn't know what head-office is doing and the agents are outright rude. During my notice period all I asked for were 24h notice before a viewing (since Townends couldn't get the spare key to work for whatever reason) so that I could be there. They still kept calling in the afternoon for evening viewings and then acted all prissy when I told them I had already made plans.
Moving out was no better, which the inventory lady rude enough to arrive 15 minutes late and then not even rang the doorbell, but tried to get in with the spare key by herself although she knew I should be there. What the...? And a few hours later the agent tells me to arrange another viewing, because clearly no one talks to each other and/or people just forget when the checkouts are scheduled. Either way I as glad to be out of this place, which is a shame because the apartment and the andlords were lovely and deserved better.
Needless to say I am still waiting for my deposit to be returned. So if any of the perople at Townends reads this - which I doubt - please contact me as I want to have it back and close this awful chapter asap.

FacebookTownends Estate Agent - Streatham Branch, has just been, to say the list, unprofessional. We had our flat listed with them for 2 months and they only produce very few viewings. After that we decided to serve them the contractual noticed of 2 weeks, which ended yesterday 22/07/16. However, during the notice period they, without our agreement, reduced the asking price. Also, still showing our property on the internet. Phone calls to the office have proved irritating to say the least. I ask for the manager and he is never there. I leave messages and he never returns the calls. Emailed yesterday complaining and no reply. What are they playing at?

GoogleUnfortunately I was lied to by a sales person at this branch. Had I have known the truth, I’d not have purchased.
2 years later, I’m still trying to get a sewer vent removed and it’s costing me thousands to do so.
What I needed as a first time buyer is trustworthy agents, I hadn’t found them here and consequently won’t be considering them in the future.

FacebookYou always need to chase. I have reached out to the property management side and they seem swamped and therefore are unable to help. I had a £10 bill converted to a £110 bill. I am now chasing for a refund but they just seem to charge whatever they want. Its really frustrating.
The local agents are OK, its just the property management side. You always have to chase, chase and chase.
