I was a tenant at LHW for 3 years. The contract process was quick and easy, employees were helpful in the process. During my time at the property any issues such as leaks were quickly responded to and dealt with. They were very fair with returning deposits quickly after the end of the tenancy. I felt very secure with them. Not 5 stars because they could be more friendly towards students.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

During lockdown we were without WiFi for nearly a month, got 10 quid compensation for sorting it all ourselves as they couldn't sort it with the utility company. Got charged 100 quid for cleaning I didn't sign off on. However, pretty good at getting the boiler and amenities fixed. Not the worst, not the best tenancy experience. Response: It's not my responsibility to be on the phone to sky for hours to fix a service, of which we paid yourselves to do. We hoovered, mopped, and dusted in every room for literally days to make sure you couldn't penalise, so a breakdown of 'cleaning issues' in your deposit description would have been much obliged. Thank you :)

Morning Matthew, I am more than happy to discuss these issues with you directly. We absolutely appreciate that you had an issue with WIFI during your tenancy and my team did work hard to get the issue sorted including supplying dongles and troubleshooting with BT at the property. We did refund you the amount that you paid monthly for the Internet package. We did do a check out when you vacated and found cleaning issues, and you do have a chance to query this with us and via the DPS. If you would like to discuss with me do not hesitate to email sl@lewishaughtonwills.com

Terrible company cancelled my viewing a few hours before i was due to go and see a property because I have kids even though on the website it was stated it was suitable for families. Another letting agents lying just to get more interest in the property.

Thank you for your google review and all feedback in appreciated and please accept my apologise for the delay in replying. We sincerely apologise for the inconvenience caused by the last-minute cancellation of your property viewing. We understand how frustrating this must have been, we had received many enquiries on the property in questions and we had a number of viewings booked in on the day you were due to view the property. I apologise there seem to be some confusion we did have to cancel the viewing as the landlord has found their own tenants which was outside our control, and we did not want people to view the property knowing that the landlord an accepted an tenant for the property. We do not cancel viewings due to people having children. I have contacted you direct but if you would like to email me charlotte@llcoproperty.com

Avoid this company where possible, especially if you’re a student! They gave us the wrong information for the move in day so we had to either go back home or stay 2 nights in a hotel until we could get keys and move in. They are also seemingly incapable of letting you know when workmen will be visiting your property so be prepared for scaffolding to start going up outside your front door at 9am with no notice. This situation will not be fixed if you ask – trust me, I tried. They are definitely aware that their contractors have a habit of not arriving when agreed and then turning up 2 weeks later with no notice but nothing will change. They will always go for the cheapest fix for a problem (despite them assuring you otherwise) which I know is common among estate agents but Lang Llewellyn are no different. Here is a sample of issues we faced in the year we rented with them: fire alarms randomly going off, oven broken for 2 weeks, leak in the sink, leak in the roof, broken floorboards, some rooms had serious mould issues despite efforts on our part to prevent this. While every house has its issues, I have never lived somewhere where this many things break or go wrong in the space of a year. I absolutely did not get the impression that they cared about our experience renting one of their properties, only their reputation.

We are truly sorry for the delay in responding, and we are sorry to hear about the issues you experienced during your time renting with Lang Llewellyn & Co. We sincerely apologise for the confusion on the day you moved in. We did cover the cost of the hotel due to the error. We understand how frustrating it must have been to deal with broken items in the property. We recognise that items can sometimes break within a property, which is why we have a trained and dedicated team in place to address maintenance issues as quickly as possible. While some delays, such as contractors’ availability, were unfortunately outside of our control, we are committed to resolving issues efficiently. We do deeply care about our tenants' letting experience, which is why we invest in our maintenance reporting app and staff training to improve our service. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience these matters caused and appreciate your feedback. If there is anything further, we can do to assist, please do not hesitate to get in touch with me directly at Charlotte@llcoproperty.com and I have contacted you direct on the concerns you have raised.

If you are looking for student housing I would recommend staying away. Reported a silver fish problem not long after our tenancy started, and never heard anything about it again. Several times our landlord/workmen just turned up without any warning and did work on the house. For example, woke up to garage roof being gone one day and another time we thought someone was trying to break in but was just someone replacing the lock on our front door but we hadn't been informed. Also kept sending emails to previous tenants, so I called to make sure the right people were down for the future but then important emails regarding deposits etc., continued to be sent to the wrong people

Thank you for your review, and please accept my apologies for the delay in responding. I have also reached out to you directly. I also want to assure you that our landlord is very hands-on and takes great pride in looking after both the property and our tenants. I sincerely apologise for the inconveniences you have faced during your tenancy. We do find that maintenance issues occur at the property, so we do invest in training and technology to ensure that issues are dealt with as quickly as possible. We request that all contractors contact tenants directly to gain access to the property when fixing issues tenants have informed us of. However, we do find that a contractor will contact one person in the group, and if they give permission for access, they might not inform the rest of the group. We have strengthened our agreement with the contractors regarding notifying tenants to access, and we have brought this to the attention of the landlord and asked him to make sure to get his contractors to notify all tenants on access. The garage roof issue was unforeseeable due to the strong winds, but the landlord organised the necessary repairs as quickly as possible to ensure your safety and comfort. As for the lock replacement on the first external door, the group requested this, and the landlord promptly agreed and arranged for the work to be done. As for the misdirected emails, I apologise for the confusion and inconvenience caused. There was a tenant swap during the tenancy, and they did receive some notifications about contractor visits. We updated this information as soon as possible. We greatly value your feedback and are committed to improving our services. If you have any further concerns or suggestions, please do not hesitate to reach out to me on charlotte@llcoproperty.com Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Terrible for students. Awful selection process and a waste of time

Reply from agent

Thank you Hattie, we appreciate that this has been a very stressful time for a lot of people. In January we received 5000 enquiries alone for student property which makes our jobs incredibly challenging. We do our best to find everyone accommodation but unfortunately we cannot help everyone. I am happy for you to email me direct to discuss any issues you faced - sophie@llcoproperty.com
