We had problems with Martin & Co throughout our tenancy. Upon moving into our rental property, they had concealed a historic leak in the bathroom (temporarily covering it up, only for the ceiling to partially collapse on the first day of our tenancy). Lynn Masterman (Director) attempted to falsify date and time stamped inventory images thereafter in an effort to cover their tracks. The check-out process was just as problematic, with Martin & Co proposing inordinate deductions to the security deposit held - many of which related to issues we had already reported on numerous occasions, with no remedial work taking place. The company ignored us for many weeks on end and, when sending justified and routine chasers to follow up on the matter, we were faced with extremely unprofessional behaviour from Jordan Bear (Property Manager). It was only when we threatened to pursue the claim with the DPS, in order to recover our deposit monies, that we finally received a substantive response from them. Martin & Co also refused to provide copy invoices for the disproportionate sums charged. You are legally entitled to see these invoices, so request copies of them when going through the check-out process. This is all an intentional delaying tactic to force you to agree to their level of proposed deductions. They ultimately do not want to proceed with the DPS procedure, so don't let this company bully you!
