Moved into a property last September expecting to find it in good condition especially since we were told repairs would be made to things when we viewed the property. It was in a bad condition with lots of repairs needed doing. The inventory was 90% wrong and we also received it late. They lied about the fact we had reported repairs. We were in the property 6 months and one repair was only done the week before we moved out. Another (rotten back door) wasn't done at all. Of course whitegates blame the contractor for being too busy etc. Another urgent repair took 5 weeks before they even came to look at it even though I said it was urgent multiple times over the phone. You have to keep chasing things up and can't leave them to do it themselves. They seem to be amateur agents with a lack of knowledge on simple things that they really should know about. They have bad practices, one of which Coventry city council told me was illegal. (Holding a deposit until proof of council tax is paid) They didn't return our full deposit and made a deduction themselves which they had no legal right to do. This has now been rectified after threats of taking it further if they didn't transfer the full amount. Even when provided with hard evidence they don't take responsibility. . I would recommend you avoid like this estate agent
Ready to prey on the weak. Beware not to trust these people, they pretend to be professionals but they treated me badly and took advantage of me being in need. Avoid at all costs.

Terrible agency. 1 star is too many for them. I am a landlord in the Southwest and thus have some experience with agents from both sides as it were. My wife and I were living in Coventry for 18 months and hence renting. Everything with Whitegates was too much trouble. Everything came with an administration charge. The check-in and check-out documentation was inaccurate. Ultimately Whitegates with discourteous and very much gave the impression that they didn't like tenants. Avoid if you can.
Wish i could give them zero. Basically threatened to end our tenancy when we repeatedly asked for an outstanding issue to be fixed. Seemed very reluctant to allow us to speak to the landlord to resolve issues. Overall extremely unprofessional.
My assessment....zerooooo I have been waiting for the apartment for 3 weeks, they postponed the date of moving in twice. They claim that they are terrible, the worst apartment agency I have ever encountered!!!!
They were terrible, not only did I pay £60 per month for what I thought was a fully managed serves, only for them to sit on their back sides and do nothing whilst I did all the work, but the staff were abusive and insulting to me and my tenants, they refused to help out in even the simplest situations and they couldn't even manage to get the agreement right. When I tried to complain I was told that my concerns were merely "Ridiculous diatribes" they NEVER admit when they are wrong and took thousands from me. I tried to get my money back but was told that it was my own fault they got it wrong. DO NOT USE WHITEGATES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!
My assessment .... zerooooo I have been waiting for an apartment for 3 weeks, they have twice postponed the date of moving in. They say that they are a bit bizzzi the worst mixing agency I have ever met !!!!
