GoogleHad my property advertised through another local company; nil response after 1 month. Put it in the hands of Letsafe & had 4 viewings within 7 days. In football terms, it was the difference between Newcastle Utd & Blyth Spartans. Joanne really worked her socks off. Many emails, texts & phone calls. I certainly know where to go next time I need a tenant.

GoogleExtremely rude, obnoxiously run agency. Many years ago I was on their books to find a property. They were initially sounding helpful to find an abode for myself, and my two dogs at the time. After numerous calls from them, with an unbelievable amount of questions and details required, they never found anything at all. So, several years later I had moved back down south and notified them that I was not searching for a unit anymore.
Fast forward many years later I called about an apartment listed on Rightmove.
Lady said on the phone not to call, but send them an email? OK. I then did this. I asked about a few things. Listing shows property oddly with a space for a washing machine, but with a fridge stuffed in place of one. Upon asking if there were plumbing for a washing machine, was told property was not suitable for a washing machine? This was so bizarre because there was space, for one to go where the fridge was, the representative told me there was no space for one?
I received extremely curt, quite rude and blunt one sentence closed answers to all questions. They had no decency to call, and all was conducted by one sentence emails. So very disinterested and unhelpful.
Asked if they would notify me of any properties in the vicinity. No reply.

GoogleWeve been waiting 6months for repairs and essential maintenance issues. Calls are ignored or cut off with no follow up. No response or updates via emails. Their lack of action and response has possibly contributed to further damage to the owners property. Terrible customer service.
