1.00 /5

Kitchen extractor not working, raised border wood rotten now collapsed but in this state 3 years ago at the tenancy commencement. Downstairs WC fan disconnected by owner 18 months ago and so many other issues including an alder tree growing out of the ground where the gas main enters the property. A risk for this property and the neighbour, but as both are owned by the same landlord, clearly not an issue for urgent attention!!. Avoid this agent at all costs.

Lettings team were shockingly bad! However Kelly ended up being the most helpful during a stressful few weeks. Communication on day one was great, after this I received radio silence for 10 days even after emailing another member of staff and the generic email address provided. Wasn't until I chased up for the third time in a week that I was made aware both members of staff were on AL. I'd highly recommend a more effective AL procedure with your staff and also a more informative OoO response so people can actually continue communication without being ghosted. After chasing up we finally got a tiny bit further and after paying a holding deposit we were then ghosted for another week until I finally complained to the Lettings Team Manager. I was then told the advertised move in date would be different to the one i agreed upon on day one. If I had received this simple explanation from the manager on day one by the woman we spoke to, we would never have applied for the property as we made it perfectly clear to them when we needed to be moved in by. From this point on I was told I was in the wrong, that I was the one who miss understood information and that they don't promise move in dates to anybody (not that I would say the word promise personally). One week before we had to move we had no choice but to move into the property a week later as we had no time to apply and look for something different. Staff were either rude, useless or 'couldn't help' which is a joke. Move in day was a joke from the start and to make things even more fun they hand the keys over and forget to mention you need a key code to entre the building. So many little things added up and made it one big stressful mess. Even to this day I have been ignored by two members of the lettings team via emails I sent and when I asked to make an official complaint I hear absolutely nothing from them (didn't expect anything less really) . Safe to say I wouldn't have continued with them if there staff (apart from one) actually did there job somewhat properly.NegativeResponsiveness

"To say experience of Newton..."

Experience with Newton Fallowell , lettings has been highly stressful. Did not get legal documentation correct; have not passed on tenant reports; passed on a quote of £10,000 when £7,33 roll of draught excluder and £120 +VAT to patch a couple of areas of exterior render would solve problem; tried to pressure me into paying for upkeep of neighbouring property as Newton Fallowell Lettings personnel said "I'd rather not" communicate with neighbouring landlord - maybe they were angry at the service too??? Our property has not even had a periodic inspection and with a new tenancy. We are moving to another letting management agent which is sad as we had been with Easilett before they sold to Newton Fallowell for 10 years.

All I can say is if you are a landlord and value your property do not use this agency. They either don’t care or are just plain stupid. I’ve given up with them after being handed a property back in an absolute S*?! state. They used the fact I live elsewhere to just ignore a multitude of issues. Just use my terrible experience to your advantage and stay well clear!NegativeQuality, Professionalism

Richard, I note your review and have investigated this situation with my lettings manager who for the record is neither stupid nor careless. I understand she requested several times from you, evidence of your issues which you have never supplied yet we were able to provide you receipt of professional cleaning done to your property. I also would like to point out that the tenant was introduced to your property by another agent. My team have not ignored "a multitude of issues" as you claim and I can see correspondence sent to you which you have not replied to regarding this matter. If you wish to actually discuss this then please feel free to contact me. Regards, Rebecca Hoyles Director

Suzanne, I have searched for your details in our client database and I have gone through our office emails to find any mention of your name and unfortunately this has not returned any results. So thank you for your 1 star review with no constructive comments during a global pandemic where local businesses are trying to do their best. Regards, Rebecca Hoyles Director

Staff are lazy and hard to get answers out of , found myself constantly trying to chase them up. Very unmotivated and not a single shred of communication .
