After reading reviews across a number of platforms I approached Location Location to sell my studio flat in Stamford Hill, despite their charges being higher than a number of competitors nearby. I wonder if my disappointing experience was due to the relatively low value of my property (estimated at £260,000) . Maybe properties earning more commission are prioritised to the detriment of lower-end ones. Or maybe LL are just not very good at valuing smaller flats (or communicating with their vendors). Either way I feel compelled to write something here because the reviews I've seen are inexplicably glowing. I was not offered the opportunity to view information about my property before it went online, and when it did there was important information missing (no photo of / mention of a garden) and other information cut and pasted from another property description which did not accurately reflect the transport options or green spaces available nearby. This was particularly poor for an agent that prides itself on its local knowledge and innovative marketing approach (stressing the importance of the initial property launch online). The team member responsible for the error was very apologetic and within 24 hours a photo and mention of the garden had been added, but my request to change the other information was ignored. When I called up several days later to ask about this and to see if there was any interest in the property (the promised end-of-the-week update on buyer interest never arrived) I was told that another team member was now dealing with my property and I should communicate with them instead as the previous contact was now busy with other work. I was told that interest was slow but might pick up and not to worry about the description. LL marketed my property for a month and although a small number of viewings took place following the initial launch, there there were no offers. In a slower market this may not be surprising but before the launch (in August 2020) LL had led me to believe there would be lots of initial interest. This came contrary to what two other agents had told me (based on the size and location of my flat) but regrettably I chose to trust LL. After three weeks I wrote to the 'new' designated team member to express concern about the lack of interest and seek advice on how to proceed. No reply came after 24 hours so I tried calling in. The person concerned was in the office but too busy to speak. After two further working days with no response I wrote to the branch manager to express my concerns about the poor communication I'd experienced and my concerns about how the property had been marketed. I was told she was on annual leave and would reply immediately on her return several days later. To date I have never received her response. Shortly before I terminated my contract with Location Location the first team member got back in touch and apologised for the inconsistent communication I'd received from the team. She took the time to address each of my concerns and she also took her share of the responsibility for the poor service I'd received. For this reason alone, LL gets a '2' from me rather than a '1'. Unfortunately by then I'd come to realise (following a number of valuations, and not at the suggestion of LL) that my property had been over-valued. When I approached a rival independent estate agent to re-market my flat at a lower price it attracted more interest (and offers) within a week than LL had managed in a month. I also received far better communication and paid less commission. Clearly LL did not have enough knowledge of the local property market to market a small flat like mine at the right price. At no point did they even suggest that I try reducing the price, despite knowing that it was empty and that I was keen to sell asap. Needless to say I do not recommend LL, especially to anyone selling a smaller property that isn't in the area immediately close to Church Street. I recently completed my sale with Oakwood and they were so much better right from the start.

My wife and I rented a flat through Location Location for 6 months in 2016. There had been a lot of initial problems in the tenancy due to a difficult landlady and poor check-in inventory but I'd previously rated them four stars as the dedicated lettings manager they recruited had worked very well to address these. I'd now rate them as 2 stars however as it took 4 months to get our deposit back. The underlying causes of this delay were a shoddy inventory contractor and a negligent landlady. Location Location aren't intrinsically at fault for this (though I'd be careful to check their inventory reports very carefully), and they did quickly accept we were entitled to the deposit. However they then showed a lack of appreciation and regard for good tenants by refusing to take a stand against the unfounded demands of their landlady, their client. Instead they deferred the decision to a very slow DPS arbitration - depriving us of a sizable sum for a third of a year.

I recently attempted to book a viewing for the 1-bedroom flat near Victoria Park, listed on 15th of January. Despite submitting my request promptly on the same day, I received no communication from Them. After five days of silence, I contacted them directly, only to be informed that the property was already fully booked. This lack of communication and organisation is unacceptable. If they are unable to effectively manage the high demand for their properties, they should reconsider their listing practices.

One star review due to my experience with location location as a tenant. The property manager, Adam, whose job title changed to asset manager (says it all), was incredibly unpleasant to deal with. He initially tried to claim that our fixed term tenancy finished over a month after the end date due to an unenforceable term in the contract. Following that he tried to claw back money egregiously from the tenancy deposit. This is despite the property having a leaking toilet, issues with plumbing and no oven for two months and a leak in the bedroom. It is ludicrous that after handing over £30000 of our money to the landlord in rent, the letting agents are chasing up £80 for a top up clean and £30 for a chip on the wall. I have never had an experience like this having rented in London for 8 years. If you are a landlord that wants to use a letting agency that treats tenant's like cash cows and numbers on a spreadsheet this is the perfect agency for you. They do not provide a good service to tenant's. If you are a tenant with them, make sure you log everything and dispute the check in inventory because they will try to squeeze as much money out of you as possible.

I had arranged a valuation for my flat with a Location Location employee via phone and email for a Friday afternoon. I’d asked a family member to stay at my flat in order to let them in, in case I didn’t get home from work in time despite having taken half a day’s annual leave. 15 minutes after the arranged meeting time, he hadn’t turned up. Half an hour, and still nothing. I called the person and left a voicemail, and I emailed. No response. I called his office and was advised he was at another viewing. I explained the situation, and it turns out the employee hadn’t put it in his diary. Great. I rearranged the valuation for two weeks’ time, and booked a valuation with another company for one week’s time. That valuation came round, and I decided to email to cancel the one with Location Location. They questioned why I was cancelling and if I’d prefer to rearrange. I explained that their colleague didn’t turn up despite confirming via email and phone. No response. No apology. Nothing. I haven’t dealt with this company very much, but from what I have experienced I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone.

An agency that postures as a local agency but is full of typical estate agents : liars (was told when i made an offer "someone has just come in with a better one but if you improve your offer it's yours!" followed by "ah the other offer has gone so you can have it" when I didn't budge), bullies (trying to bully me to vacate a property despite the law being on my side) and hypocrites (very nice when things are going their way and bullies when they are not), incompetent (lost my parking permit they were meant to be keeping for me). I would steer clear of these people.

Unbelievable.... Such a waste of time ....booked a viewing for Saturday No- one showed up for the viewing. No communication! Time wasters
