Northwood cost me thousands of pounds in lost income, unpaid council tax bills, unpaid electricity and repairs when they failed to realise my tenant had moved out for over 6 months, leaving the flat vacant and without insurance. After I highlighted their error to them, their initial response was 'I don't know how they got away' then they showed very little interest in their mistake and even failed to show up for a meeting to discuss the problem. My phone calls and messages were never returned. Poor organisation, poor management and disinterested. Stay away.

Dear Katharine, When your property came to us as part of an acquisition it was already vacant for the short period of time it was with us. We have no note of a meeting recorded in the diary. We have no note of receiving a complaint in this regard and the members of staff that were involved with your property are no longer is employed with Northwood to able to query further. I am sorry to read you review and only wish we could have helped more, Matt Pullinger

absolute shambles of a company. Instructed them to advertise property when tenants gave notice, they didn't advertise anything. When it was finally advertised properly Northwood did a very poor job and ignored communication. Property sat empty for months before i changed management companies and then was rented out in 2 weeks. I would avoid at all costs and find a more professional management company.

We are sorry to read your review and have not note on file of having received a complaint. We advertise our properties as soon as we have instruction from the landlord, however must always ensure that the property is safe and compliant before going to market, which can sometimes cause a delay but is a requirement of government legislation. Best regards Matt Pullinger

Me and my partner moved into a house in kingswells, Aberdeen which looked like a nice home upon viewing, however the place was falling apart, there was a severe lack of hot water and the central was very temperamental and when we complained to Northwood i was asked to ‘fiddle about with the boiler’ myself. The landlord had sellotaped the bottom bracket of the fridge on after he broke it and when we asked for a replacement we were given something that resembled a mini bar. The recycling bin was full of grass upon our arrival which meant we had to pay for someone to remove it. We moved out of the house before our lease was up as the living standards were appauling. I still havent recieved my deposit back although the landlord has made a full renovation on the house and northwood wont reply to my emails. Worst experience of renting a property ive ever had!!

Dear Jamie, We are sorry to read your review and will always seek ways to improve our service to our clients. We took over management of this tenancy midway through the lease, so cant comment on how it was found at the start of the tenancy with the previous agent. The landlord informed us of plans to build an extension to the property and the need to bring the tenancy to an end. Matt Pullinger

Very disappointing experience, i just dont see how what you have left me and my partner in is acceptable, the flat is cold damp and mouldy. Things breaking such the shower, windows, door ive seen the temperature drop into danger of hypothermia and they want us to ventilated the property but we only have the in the living room but in the living room there is a crumbling wall the wallpaper above the bedroom window is crumbling of but still nothing been done, the customers service is worst i can never seen to get through to the maintenance team horrible customer service thank god am out this property in little over a month!!!, the tiles in the kitchen is coming from the wall due to damp i dont how the landlord got away with this flat is not fit for living in, and they told us that they have never had an issue with the cold in the flat well thermometers dont lie its so cold to the point our hands are so numb we've also have family and friends to say its cold i would highly recommend dont go with this company they take a very long time to answer and very very poor service.

Dear Connor, We are sorry to ready your review. I note that we have not received a complaint to date and do have a formal complaints procedure to resolve matters and are also happy to take a call on 01224 218450 should you wish to discuss further. This property has only recently been taken over by us and any historic issues we were not made aware of. Best Regards Matt Pullinger

Absolutely disgraceful and unethical agent. Disabled family member was told she could not accept an application to reserve a property without first meeting the agent. After waiting a week for a viewing, the agent reserved the property for another tenant who had an earlier viewing the same day, without even accepting my family member's application. The agent didn't even have the courtesy to call and cancel the viewing, leaving my family member - who cannot WALK - completely up the creek. I'm absolutely horrified at the disgusting behaviour of this agent, and I would recommend you avoid them at all costs. The behaviour displayed by this agent is in contravention of the Letting Agent Code of Practice Regulations, and we will be pursuing this appropriately: "In deciding how you will conduct viewings on the landlord’s behalf, you should make sure you do not unlawfully discriminate against a person protected by the Equality Act 2010"

We are sorry to read you review. Our instructions come from the landlord with who they accept for their property and we have viewings and applications all the time for the properties we manage. We did try to call to advise and further sent an e-mail to other properties that may suit and would be happy to arrange this on 01224 218450, Matt Pullinger
