AVOID AT ALL COST!!! Terrible experience with this agency. They don’t offer support and are dubious when it come to end of tenancy. They even charge you for wear and tear usages.
Paul, the director of Aisworth Lord Estate, highly recommended a surveyor he used regularly & trusted, for a property we'd offered the full asking price on. When the surveyor's report came through claiming it was not a mortgageable proposition, he instantly changed his mind about him. Paul said we should overlook the opinion & the identified repair work over 75k. Paul advised that we should now fork out for another surveyor for a 2nd opinion. His advice is comical. It gets better!! He took a deposit of 5k from us, explaining at the time that it was just a goodwill gesture to show we were serious buyers. After the report came through, we told Paul on 29th Sept, that we can not proceed, we asked him to return the deposit. Paul was now not forthcoming with communication, so my wife gave him a 1star rating. The communication instantly improved, she received an email threatening her with legal action for rating him. The prison attire is definitely not for her. 😆 Paul claimed on 5th Oct, that he's been in talks with the vendor to prevent us from losing our deposit. My wife has trust issues when it comes to him & insisted we visit the vendor. It pains me to say it, she was right! On 8th Oct, the vendor confirmed her suspicion. We decided to confront Paul in person today. When asked why he still has our money, he said he would be transferring to the vendor this week. 🤔 Paul said he was hoping to negotiate, he could offer us deal so we wouldn't lose our deposit. We asked him what he proposed. He's response "why don't you buy half the premises it would cost less". I can't stomach this man. My wife entertained him & asked for the price. Paul said 75k. Now for simple maths Surveyor valuation = 100k full premises Half premises =50k Paul's DEAL for half premises =75k I wonder if Paul failed maths Now for simple maths: Surveyor = 100k for full premises Half premises = 50k Paul's DEAL for half premises = 75K I wonder if Paul failed maths
Poor service
AVOID! Please AVOID this company - Qube Residential Lettings & Management Manchester! I don’t even want to give a star to this company, but if I don’t, I can’t post this review on Google. What they have done feels like a scam—taking your money for nothing. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this agency. I had a very disappointing experience with this company . I was set to move into an apartment on 9th September and paid a holding deposit after completing the referencing process. However, after I made the payment, I was informed that my move-in date was being pushed back to 16th September. This change was unacceptable to me, but since they already had my money, I felt I had no choice but to accept it. The agency failed to communicate any potential changes to the move-in date before I paid the deposit and signed the Terms and Conditions. I requested a refund for the holding deposit since I could not move in on the new date, but the agent claimed that because I had signed the Terms and Conditions, they could not refund the deposit. It feels incredibly unfair for me to bear the consequences of their lack of communication. It’s as if they don’t need to take responsibility for their mistakes, while customers are left to bear the burden.
Useless letting agents. Spend over 3 months reporting a leak into my room then they decide to try charge me for it after tenancy ends. Avoid at all costs
Do not rent with them! Moved out with them multiple weeks ago and have heard nothing regarding the deposit coming back. Paid over £1000 in the deposit and chased them up with emails. Ignored the first ones and then responded saying they haven't got invoices yet. It has been multiple weeks and new tenants have even moved in now. Absolutely ridiculous.
At the very start we were offered the option to pay the equivalent of 1 weeks rent as a non-refundable deposit to cover any maintenance/damage that may occur during our 6 month tenancy. After moving out however we were hit with a £600+ bill for a full flat repaint, clean, and for the fixing of several items that were already broken upon moving in. In addition to this we had to report that the table provided was broken (had been glued back together so many times that the parts no longer could support any weight) to be told that we had to source our own table and store the old table in the flat for the duration of our stay otherwise we would be charged for it. Other issues included the oven glass doors shattering upon first use; replacement chest of drawers needed in the first week as the ones provided were broken, broken boiler (no hot water for a week), and only being provided 1 access card to use between 2 tenants (which we were then charged for despite them being free during the residency)
Took a 1 year tenancy out but left within 9 months. They charge you £600 to leave early, if if you have someone to take over Deductibles after… got charged and £85 bogus fee so the could wipe water stains off a tap, wipe the fridge and wipe a tiny bit of left over oven cleaner I’d missed. They lied to us during the viewing promising the landlord would get us curtains but never did. Left a plug faulty even though it was reported, took 3 weeks to fix our fridge and the block of flat we were in had a broken lift 90% of the year. Not to mention the building itself is so badly made! Also, I offer to pay £40 towards the cleaning which was still too high but they rejected it. Unreasonable, unhelpful and overall bad company to rent with. I won’t be going back there
