Very helpful and well organised.

The agency is very good at getting the property ready for letting. They keep you always updated about pending work or certification.One of the most important things is that they can find the next occupier very fast.

service poor and overpriced.i am a landlord and they behave if it was their property( I am the owner,not mortgaged)their maintenance department is useless.arrogant ,unattentive,don't answer phone and don't get back.I asked for details of my tenants to inform them and all I get is a gdpr lecture, so I asked for a copy of the lease contract.I left my property with them far too long.their communication is poor.they treat you from a high horse.want to charge me for changing agents.absolute rip off merchants.dont use them.

Linley & Simpson are a professional real estate company. The service from the initial listing through to the final sale has been seamless. The dedicated staff have effectively communicated the sales progression process. Cal Siswick at the York office has consistantly kept me upto date and gone above and beyond.I would highly recommend giving them a call for all your Real Estate needs.

Unresponsive and indifferent

Never ever had a conclusive experience with them. Inquired on multiple properties in Leeds (late 2023 and currently), never once been responded to. But they don't forget to send spam to my inbox though. Have emailed twice about current property I'm interested in. Not a peep. Don't believe me? Try for yourself. And don't get me started on their video tours that NEVER work. Very discouraging and poor.

MOULD, USELESS, WITHHOLDING DEPOSIT

Less than 1 star. A nightmare from the start. I was delayed moving into my flat as they were sending in cleaners (the flat had been empty for a month). I got in and there was still black mould on the walls. The mould worsened during my 3 years there to the point where I couldn't use one of the rooms, my belongings were damaged and I had to have surgery to fix a chronic infection that could not heal in this environment. This was reported many times and, aside from 1 proper visit, was treated by asking me to put damp catchers up (which i already did) and painting over it with damp paint. Various times I was expected to pay for plumping and property maintenance because it was an emergency and their plumber hadn't been available. Upon leaving the property i cleaned and scrubbed and left only a small amount of regular wear and tear (from the 3 years I was there). I painted and cleaned up the mould. This was in July. It is not December and I have still not received my deposit back as they are claiming I owe them Β£110 in cleaning charges. No receipts will be provided and the neighbours to the flat have confirmed no cleaning was undertaken. This is a greedy parasitic company and I will never recommend anyone go through them. Oh, and if you want receipts from my end don't worry I have pictures and screenshots of the full thing.

Con men

Con menPut me in a flat in January, in Manor Mills in Leeds, where the building has Grenfell style cladding on, didn't make me aware prior to moving in, didn't make me aware that 6 months into a 12 month tenancy that there would be scaffolding put up and sheeting put all the way round the building, while the cladding removal process is still going on, if I'm ever at home during the day, it's not even worth being there as the noise of the drilling and grinding from 8am onwards is absolutely insane and not a condition you should have to live in daily never mind pay over the odds for.My room is on the end of the corridor then which means there is constant work going on, on the external wall from top to bottom as this is where most of the cladding is.I have had to turn down a job on nights as it would be impossible to sleep through the day.Linley & Simpson's solution? Β£100 a month knocked off the rent and "no lower", it's the human equivalent of a mouse living in a shoe box, by a busy road and they could not care less!Reported to trading standards and the property ombudsman.Be careful when using these clowns!
