Don´t use this company at all costs! I rented an expensive property full of defects and about 7 months into the rental, I was still having new problems on a daily basis even though they promised whatever "little improvements" that needed to be done were going to be done within a week or two. I had builders every week fixing the bathrooms, shower, they left rubbish everywhere, sometimes I had people coming into my flat unannounced, the radiators didn't work etc, it was an absolute ordeal. They don't deserve your money, if you find a property you like you will see it advertised with one of their competitors too. Go there instead.

Thank you for your review Daniel and sorry you feel you had such a bad experience renting through Mishon Mackay. I have been able to review the file and can see you certainly had a lot of maintenance whilst you were residing in the property; however it looks as through all of which was unavoidable and dealt with in a timely manner. We do apologies that the work in the bathroom took longer than expected and are grateful for your patience. I can see regular updates were provided to you and everything you reported was actioned included the new radiators in both bedrooms. I am sorry that the contractors sometimes failed to notify of their visit and left rubbish on site, this is very unusual for the firm I know completed most of the work, but we will be sure to raise your dissatisfaction with them as well.

Arranged to view a property to buy with Samin Got a viewing confirmation the evening before. The morning of the viewing called 1 hour before that just to say the property has been sold. How that can be possible if the evening before this guy asked to confirm the viewing ? He should have got an amazing offer early in the morning, pass it to the vendor and accept it in a matter of a hour ??? He could have honored the viewing and pass my offer as well. He has decided to dishonor our agreement and the agency is working for. Utterly unprofessional and unreliable. Why Mishon Mackay is still employing this guy ?

Hi there I'm sorry that you have had to post such a negative review on our Brighton Office. I've tried to look into the points you have raised but I'm afraid that I can't find your details on our system, at least with the details you have used to post this review. Could you let me know how we might have you registered on our database so that I can see what has happened? Thanks Steve Neocleous

Beware buyers: This estate agent misleads customers on important legal matters, which cost me considerable time, energy and money. I viewed an apartment with the Seven Dials office of Mishon Mackay (Hove). I asked specifically whether the apartment's hardwood floor (with which the agency advertised the flat) were legally sound in terms of the lease. I stressed that this is important as my partner has strong allergies and I am looking for a place with hard wood flooring. I was aware that more and more flats are being sold with hard wood flooring even though this is not allowed per the lease. The agent claimed that the hard wood floors were all fine in terms of the lease. I consequently made an offer on the place. But once my solicitor got insight into the legal details, it turned out that the lease mandates that all floors need be carpeted. This is stated in a central place in the lease agreement and cannot be missed. Mishon Mackay nevertheless tried to pressure me into buying the flat. According to them, the clause "all floors need be carpeted" does not mean that all floors need be carpeted. But that is of course not true. My solicitor was very clear: the hardwood floors are in direct breach of the lease and need be changed once anyone complains about noise. Mishon Mackay then failed to get retrospective consent from the landlord for the hardwood floors. All they got was a short email saying that the floors are ok as long as no one complains, but that a court would likely decide against the current state of the flat. Mishon Mackay then tried to portray this as a normal thing, stating that they could not have possibly known about the details of the lease. This is both of course untrue as well. Other agencies that I have been dealing with either told me that the floors need be carpeted or looked into the lease details before confirming whether the floors need carpeting or not. I finally decided to pull out of the sale because I never made an offer on a property that is in clear breach of the lease. In the course of this I lost money for a homebuyer report, legal searches, and a mortgage application, let alone my headache over this and wasted time. And all this simply because of the dishonesty of Mishon Mackay that seem to privilege a quick sale over legally sound procedure.NegativeQuality, Professionalism, Value

Completely useless. As ex tenent I've asked for help more than once and I've received an answer just when I said that I would complain. Avoid them!NegativeProfessionalism

Hi Michela Thank you for taking the time to review the service you have received from Mishon Mackay. We are very sorry you feel you haven’t received the level service we always endeavour to provide. I have been able to review the file and the communication had, and I can see there was some confusion in relation to a tenancy swap we assisted you with; although I can see everything was explained and agreed. I am aware further communication is required between yourself and the existing tenant re funds due. All responses appear to have been sent if not the same day, the following, so although I know it was a stressful time for you, I am satisfied the matter was dealt with professionalism and in a timely manner to help resolve the situation all whilst ensuring the best outcome was received to you both. Please do let me know if there is anything else you need me to look into for you. Regards Steve
