We recently bought our home through Michael Hodgson, moving to the area from some distance away, and found the staff consistently courteous, prompt and helpful, whether dealing with our questions or keeping us informed on progress. We can unreservedly recommend them.

The team at Michael Hodgson dealt with the sale of our property and the level of service was second to none! Excellent and very prompt communication from all the staff! We cannot thank them enough! I would highly recommend them to buy/sell or rent any property. Thank you for the first class service we experienced!

The worst letting agents that I have ever had the misfortune to rent through. Moved into a 2 bed flat to find that the bath was sinking into the floor, the main heating in the lounge wasn't working, the sink blocked, the burglar alarm not working and leaks under the sink. Not to mention a knackered fridge. The workmen used when they came round were terrible. All my shopping lost when they replaced the fridge and flat left in a mess by other workmen. They never reimbursed me for my shopping goods either. Avoid these agents at all costs

Absolutely poor service from top to bottom. I rented from them and when I left. they put a claim on my deposit even after the checkout inventory did not highlighted any issues. It took them almost a month to make up their mind on what claims to put through DPS. I got all my deposit back after my case was referred to ADR almost 3 months after my tenancy ended. I am thinking this kind of practice would put a lot of strain on family’s who’s deposit they claim upon and surely anyone in need of money would give in to greedy agents making false claims. I rented from many agent never faced any problem like this. I can surely say with regards Gascoigne and Halman. Don’t rent from them and if you do make sure checkin inventory is thoroughly checked and do necessary amendment within 7 days ( Gascogne Halman says amendments should reach them within 48hrs). And lastly Msg for Rebecca where is duty of care towards your tenants and looking after their interests, tenants are your customers and if they don’t rent from you, your wage will not be paid, unless you have get commission or bonus to successfully claim from deposits.

Extremely helpful team, so very approachable. Couldn't have asked for a better team to help me on this daunting task of buying my house. Matt Follett and Lucy Kershaw are probably the best of the best in their respective fields. Already recommending these two to all my colleagues who are in the market to buy..
