I have had a disappointing experience with Martin & Co. On completion of my 7 year tenancy, I promptly completed the DPS form and released the deposit to the landlord. However a week later, both myself and my guarantor were contacted by the Head of Lettings at Martin & Co Wanstead who said the landlord was growing impatient and threatening legal action. He had failed to check that the funds had already been released and were sitting in Martin & Co’s account, inconveniencing myself, the landlord and my guarantor unnecessarily. Despite the response below, nobody has spoken to me on the phone to explain/apologise/resolve this issue. It’s really disappointing to be treated in this way.

Good Afternoon Billie, I believe our lettings manager has spoken to you on the phone about the issues that you have raised and as you are aware the Landlord had us instructed as a tenant find only 7 years ago, we dealt with your viewing, your references and providing you with the property in question as accepted by the landlord, we do not manage the property, therefore during your 7 year tenancy your correspondence and issues would have been through your Landlord direct. We have already mentioned to you about the deposit and as you are aware this has now been resolved. kind regards Michael Molloy - Business Owner

Richard couldn't have been more pro-active, positive and professional. We needed a very quick transaction and he assured me he could deliver on this. He completely lived up to his word and responded to every query very quickly and efficiently and went out of his way to help both during and after the sale. It's been an entirely positive experience and we'd thoroughly recommend Richard and the team at Martin & co.

Martin&co Wanstead have a good team who are very responsive and easy to work with. They've just found us a new tenant with a very minimal void period as with our last tenants, who proved to be great and stayed over 6 years before needing to relocate. The contractors Martin&co Wanstead recommend have all been reliable and reasonable to date too. .PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Happy Tenants

We rented our flat in New Wanstead from Martin & Co. Rob was very helpful from the beginning, he provided a good communication between us and landlord and by his help we managed to rent the flat. When we moved in, there were a few problems with the flat but the management team quickly solved all of them. We’re happy in our new flat thanks to Martin & Co.

I recently rented a property out through Mike and his team at Martin & Co in Wanstead. They were all very helpful and explained how everything worked, with the do's and don'ts. I was going to do it myself, but they have found me superb tenants and sorted all the paperwork out. It would have cost me more and I would not have had such good tenants. Pleasure working with you. Thank you. Justin

Property sale

Used Martin & Co for the sale of a property. Gave an accurate indication of value, marketed the property well and identified lots of potential purchasers. Showed a lot of local knowledge of the area. Obtained a great price for the property and proved invaluable in pushing the sale through. Nothing was too much trouble and they were very responsive. Would highly recommend Mike, Richard and the team.

I had the manager himself come out from wanstead. He has not replied to my emails or phone calls There is no way to complain either i tried head office but no body responded after a promise of a call back.

I never thought I would write a recommendation about an estate agent but Martin & Co were amazing. During my sales transaction I dealt with Carmen who is super efficent, helpful, really understood my aims and worked with me to achieve them. Jill in sales progression was also excellent in progressing the sale. I had a really good service and would highly recommend them because they are very honest and efficient.

I was getting a bit tired of being shown properties that didn't live up to what was being presented and I was on a deadline and running out of time!Rob and his colleagues at Martin and Co, quickly booked me a viewing the following day of my enquiry, gave me some honest, good advice about how to seal the deal, and the whole process was done and dusted quickly, professionally and with little fuss. Highly recommend them if you're looking to buy or rent in the Wanstead and surrounding area.
