Shame you can't just put an address in the search bar and it comes up,instead it comes up with houses all over that area! We had seen 3 houses we wanted to purchase for our daughter but gave it up,ended up buying from another estate agent, your charges should reflect your efficiency and its obvious that your search engine needs bringing into this century. We are looking to downsize shortly now the last child has flown the nest,we will try watts again but if after 20 mins I can't find what I'm looking for,well, someone else will gain from your lack of updating your search engine.

Ian we are sorry you have had so much trouble with the website but it was updated this year and we have had no other complaints to be fair. You can narrow the search via miles radius if that helps but please contact the office if you would like more details.

Tried several times to get through no answer not good start when you want to sell your home. Phone kept going to voicemail, tried several times during the day for two days. I really do not wish to speak to a machine. Decided to go elsewhere

Sorry Sarah, we have been very busy. We do respond to all messages though, did you leave one?

Didn’t answer the phone, didn’t reply to emails and voice mails for over 2 weeks. When we did eventually get through to them they used our interest to get another offer pushed through without informing us there was another offer.

Richard, we apologise for the breakdown in communication but we always respond to voicemails and emails so we will look into this matter with urgency. Unfortunately the house you were looking at already had an offer and we were waiting for proof of funds to confirm it was sold hence we had to cancel your viewing. We do however wish you success with finding a new home.

I'd give them zero stars if I could. Please avoid these cowboys. I've recently vacated a property that they manage and I've received nothing but threatening emails from Kate, Alex and Gail saying they are going to apply for a CCJ against me, yes I admit that I was owning some rent when vacating however offered them a repayment plan as they stated they were unable to take this from the deposit however I have now had then claim this from the deposit, and they seem to think I'll still be paying the £40 a month offered, not a chance your not getting double from me. The property I vacated was deemed as not fit for human inhabitation due to the dangerous loft and the roof needing a major repairs. I will be taking legal advise and will fight them the whole way as they have new tenants in the property now EDIT in response to the reply from yourselves, notice wasn't given for rent arrears, the rent owed is for the last month and I have emails to prove this and also the threat of a CCJ. The property has been re let as I've been informed by a number of neighbours and for for you saying it needed cleaning, the property was left in the state it was given, I admit I forgot a chair in the small room but that doesn't warrant you trying to claim over £2000 from myself, I will be speaking to my solicitor

We’re really sorry to receive this Nicholas as it is obviously not our aim to upset people. This should really have been posted on the Rentals page but we will look into your complaint and come back to you. However when rent arrears are due we have to protect our client who is owed the monies otherwise they can fall into arrears with their lender. Nicolas, we have now looked into this and we will contact you direct to try and resolve the matter. We do however dispute your review as we have not threatened you with a CCJ, the house has not been re-let as it needs cleaning, the rent is owed to the landlord and he gave notice because of this.

Worst Estate Agents Around. They need to learn how to communicate with their clients. You never informed me with anything, so stop your lies. Gillian Spence Marla your Senior Letting Manager needs Customer Service Skills as she doesnt know how to talk to a customer. I requested a contractor to be sent out to the property Asap which you failed to do aswell as there were no follow-ups and nither any confirmation through emails that someone is gona visit the site instead so i assumed you didnt find anyone instead you bill me for something that i didn't require again and nither justified.You wasn't thinking i was gona wait forever for you imaginary contractor to turn up were you. And Thanks for nothing.

Usman were obviously really disappointed to receive this review. We have investigated this and we are sorry but we totally disagree with your comments as we clearly arranged with you for contractors to visit the house and you refused them entry which is where the problem arose. Contractors will unfortunately always charge for a failed visit which we cannot change.

Not very helpful at all unfortunately. I'm homeless, sofa surfing after fleeing domestic abuse and sadly I couldn't make a viewing for a property due to work commitments, I only got offered the viewing yesterday. Apparently it's their policy that you HAVE to view the property before putting in an application. I can't find this policy on their website and despite my awful situation they offered no solution and were very abrupt. Very unfortunate because other Estate Agents have been very considerate. Surely if I'm okay putting in an application having only seen pictures, knowing full well the property would be suitable for myself as a single person that should be enough, as it is with most estate agents but it isn't and gets you a very frosty response.

Reply from agent

Lauren we are most distressed to receive this review but we can’t accept applications if you haven’t viewed the house. The demand is very high at the moment and if house in question is popular others will undoubtedly get the property. We are sorry for your situation and will try and help you if you see something else.
