I am on a premium account with 2 houses under there property management scheme. They never return any phone calls and never give you any information they charge more then anybody else and everything they do is a extra cost. I have 1 tenant that has paid them £2,400 in one month and I have not received a penny off Sillars. Nor any Statements from Sillars. How am I supposed to pay Mortgage payments and home insurance etc. Be very careful they just in it for what they can milk you for. Very expensive 12.5% + vat for premium property management and you get nothing for that money as everything is charged as a extra. It's a money making Scamming company.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you feel this way, and we would welcome the opportunity to resolve any concerns you may have. We take communication seriously and always return calls or respond to messages. If you believe a specific call was missed, please contact me directly at liam.m@sillars.co.uk with the date and time, and I will personally investigate. Regarding your comment about rental payments — we have no record of a £2,400 rent payment from either tenant. Any rent we receive is processed promptly, and we pay landlords daily. To help clarify, I have emailed you a full statement of account for each of your properties. Our Premium Management service covers a wide range of day-to-day management tasks. Any additional charges apply only where services fall outside our agreed terms, and all fees are clearly set out in both your contract and on our website here: https://sillarsproperties.co.uk/lettings-fees-services. We’re always open to feedback and committed to transparent, fair service. If you would like to discuss anything further, I’d be happy to speak with you directly. Kind regards, Liam McCallum Cheif Sales Officer (CSO)

Pretty good when you're looking for somewhere to rent but completely useless after you've given them your money. …

Very poor customer service. They answer calls. When we send enquiry on right move to view a property. They don’t get back to you. Then they say we are fully booked.

Hi Tahir, we did receive your enquiry and attempted to contact you to book you in for a viewing for the property you enquired about, however you had entered an incorrect number, so we could not contact you. … More

We had a viewing on Saturday with Davis and Lund , turned up 10 minutes early we waited at least 25 minutes the estate agent did not turn up . I rang them only to be fobbed off with some untruths saying they were in the property the blinds were open . No they were not , the blinds were shut and would they not have stepped outside like we got out of the car to see if there was anyone there . Poor practise and if I was the person selling the house I would be fuming as it could have resulted in a lost sale .

Terrible company. I booked a viewing with them and no one showed up. I tried to call the number provided and after I went through the automated menus they hung up the phone. This company should be dissolved immediately.

Hi Sarah, Thanks very much for reaching out- naturally, I am very shocked to hear this and want to get to the bottom of things! Can you reach out to me directly so I can work out what has happened here please? Thanks, Liam (Sales & Lettings Director) 01325523756 Liam.m@sillars.co.uk **UPDATE** Hi Sarah, I've just managed to check into the scenario, it looks like you were one of five viewings booked at this property today - the other four went ahead with no problem (some before, some after your allocated time). I can't work out what could have gone wrong here? Did you arrive on time? Could you give me a call to discuss and of course, we would love to re-arrange for you!

Good afternoon. Some context in relation to this review would be greatly received so we could look into this for you.

Booked a viewing for a flat in Victoria Mills apartment. They've confirmed again the day before to make sure I coming. But never showed up on the day and completely ghosted me. I felt like an idiot for travelling all the way from Leeds and showing up 15 min early, taking the day off from work for the viewing. Worse part is I've never got a reason for cancelling it. May someone else let the property before my viewing, but I wasn't even informed as a courtesy at the least. Edit: Hi Gary thanks for your response. I am not sure what happened either. The intercom was a bit iffy because it was showing an error when I entered the flat number. I tried several times and gave up. I actually managed to sneak in when someone else come out of the door, but when I knocked on the flat door, there was no response. I have called your office twice but the response I got was that the person must have left already so would have to reschedule the appointment. All of this could have been easily avoided if we could actually communicate.

Hi Pradeep, I have reviewed the timescales around your viewing & I can confirm that a member of our team was at the property, completing viewings for 10 interested parties, over a two hour period. We were at the property for 45 minutes prior to your viewing appointment & 75 mins after your viewing appointment time. Our records show that you did not arrive for your appointment, so I'm not sure what happened here, as 8/10 people who were confirmed to view the property, did in fact view the property, within this two hour period. My colleague who completed the viewings, confirmed that she enabled access to all who arrived & pressed the intercom to view the property. Please be assured that we did not let the property out before your viewing appointment was arranged for, as we 8 people viewed this property, during the viewing slot that you were booked in for? Gary.

Terrible service, had me waiting around over half an hour just to be told the agent had already left the property.

Hi TG, we’ve had eight viewings in this property this afternoon and 7/8 of the viewings went ahead as planned. Our viewer waited at the property until 4pm, as the final appointment was booked in at 3.30pm however unfortunately she had to leave as she had other viewings lined up at another property at 4.30pm. I’ve spoken to my viewer, who advised that she was calling the number that we have listed for you, however the number just rang out with no response. Please be assured that we are not a team that does not go out of our way to accommodate all viewing requests however on this occasion, we’ve had no choice to continue with our viewings once all of the appointments have attempted to be completed. Gary

I was advised to use this company (branch)!! they made an appointment with me, I then had a phone call in the evening to cancel, I was told they would still look at another project for me, to this day after phoning and speaking to the branch 3 times I have not had anything from them not even a courtesy call. Very unprofessional would defiantly not recommend.
