I lived in a Nicholas Humphreys property last year, and it was genuinely one of the worst renting experiences I’ve had. The house had issues from day one that they’ve tried hard to hide. There’s a lot of mold that builds up in the house in every single room apart from the kitchen and bugs, and slugs constantly getting inside from cracks left unsealed. My bathroom had no extractor fan, despite there being a shower, so the damp just built up. Additionally there was a leak in the upstairs shower that dripped through the ceiling into a lightbulb and the smoke detector downstairs in the living room which is an obvious electrical hazard and a serious safety issue. Despite reporting it, no one came to fix it or even take a look at it. This is classed as an emergency repair under UK housing standards and in our tenancy contract but they still never sent anyone the entire year to come repair it. Now, after we’ve moved out, they’re trying to charge us for blinds and a wardrobe that were already broken when we moved in and which we reported properly at the time. So this is an extra £110 we shouldn’t be paying. It feels like they’re just trying to squeeze every penny out of tenants after already providing substandard housing. I would strongly advise anyone considering renting through Nicholas Humphreys to look elsewhere. There are far better, more responsive and more ethical letting agents in the area. Cheap housing isn’t worth dying in an electrical fire because they want to scam another penny out of you.
