Eviction notice within first month of renting: Terrible experience. Within one month of moving into a property rented through Martin & Co, I received eviction notices saying bailiffs would be attending because the landlord had not been paying the mortgage. I was told I had to leave within days. I later found letters in the property that were dated before my tenancy began and related to the possession proceedings, which suggests the agent should have been aware there were serious issues before I moved in. Martin & Co have comically denied any wrongdoing and refused to offer any compensation despite the significant stress, disruption, and extra moving costs this caused. I would not recommend them.

Dear Matt We are sorry to read this review and for the distress described. The circumstances surrounding the repossession of this property were extremely unfortunate and came as a shock to us. Prior to the tenancy commencing, we carried out the standard legal checks available to us, including identity verification and Land Registry checks, which did not identify any issues that would have indicated the subsequent repossession proceedings. Our role in this case was limited to a tenant-find service. The landlord chose to manage the tenancy themselves, and we were not involved in the ongoing management of the property after the tenancy commenced. We take any concerns raised by tenants seriously and would never knowingly market a property where we were aware that possession was imminent. Had we been aware of any such circumstances, the property would not have been offered for let. As we are unable to verify the details of this review, we would welcome the opportunity to discuss your concerns directly. Please contact our office so that we can review the matter and ensure we have the correct information relating to your experience. Best Regards Elizabeth
