stop cold calling me

I had a very disappointing experience with this letting agency. Despite always paying rent on time, they unfairly deducted £250 from my deposit for two light bulbs and refused to consider any reasonable resolution. Communication was poor and stressful, with inconsistent and unjustified claims. I reported issues with the boiler and extremely high utility bills, but they dismissed my concerns after a very basic inspection. Unfortunately, the agency offers little support to tenants and shows no openness to feedback. I do not recommend renting through them.

I had a very disappointing experience with this agency. They confirmed my property viewing, and I even took a day off to attend. However, when I arrived at the location, I was informed by L.Bailey that the viewing had been canceled—without any prior notice. It was highly unprofessional and a complete waste of my time. A simple notification would have been appreciated. I would not recommend dealing with such unreliable service.

Board thrown into my garden. Unacceptable

Using sly tactics to lock you in. Bad practice.

This agent will do anything to gain a property let. Their staff lie to perspective tenants and Landlords alike. The tenant will be promised anything to sign an agreement without this being agreed by the Landlord. I unfortunately chose them to manage my property and it has been a complete nightmare. Now trying to cancel the agreement and being threatened with legal action. Whether you are a Tenant or Landlord stay well away !!!

Snobs, and unless you have millions to spend, they will treat you like dirt.

I began the process in May 2023 by viewing a flat in London listed by 'Benjamin Stevens Estate Agents.' Although the flat wasn't in the best condition, I saw its potential and unfortunately made an offer that was accepted. However, the conveyancing process unnecessarily prolonged for months, largely due to the seller's solicitor. They were slow in obtaining the Management Pack and responding to inquiries. Despite my repeated requests for confirmation regarding the tenants vacating the flat on time, my requests were ignored for months. It later became clear that the tenants were council tenants with no intention of moving out. After enduring months of waiting, a court eviction letter finally arrived six months into the process, revealing that the tenants wouldn't vacate until mid-January 2024, if at all. Concurrently selling a flat myself, I opted to withdraw my application to avoid losing my buyers. Consequently, I made an offer for a different flat. Regrettably, I suffered substantial financial losses amounting to several thousand pounds. Had I known beforehand about the flat being occupied by council tenants, I wouldn't have made an offer. Following my formal withdrawal, I noticed that the flat's advertisement was re-published without updates, despite a £1,000 increase in the annual service charge since its initial publication in early 2023, an error not corrected in the advertisement. Considering the real estate agent's poor communication and transparency issues from the start and throughout the process regarding the tenant situation, I cannot envision utilising their services again.

More interested in getting details on their system than selling houses for the best price.
