I rented a property from them last year (2017-18). Not only did the pictures not convey the truth about the property, at the end of our contract, we were swindled into paying for certain "damages" that was clearly set up beforehand by the agency. 1) My room had a desk. The desk was missing a drawer, but I did not make note of it to the agency, thinking it was pretty obvious they should know that an entire drawer was missing, and I just dealt with it. After moving it out, I was informed I will be needing to pay for an entire other desk unit from which they can get the missing drawer. 2) My friend was told to pay for stains on his mattress that were there to begin with. It would be easy so assume he simply didn't remember putting them there, except on the inventory we received upon moving out, the picture of his bed prior to us ever moving in had a sheet placed conveniently over the exact area where the stains were found. The sheet was not there when we moved in, so it's only logical to assume that it was placed there with the intent of covering up the pre-existing stains. 3) Throughout the year, multiple of the rooms in the house had mould. We asked the agency and the landlord to get rid of it. The landlord showed up, and set up camp in one of the rooms to "sort it out". When we looked at what he doing, he was merely wiping it off the walls with a wet paper towel. That does not get rid of mould. We were breathing in that house for over 9 months. 4) We were made to pay for 4 mattress protectors that were never even on site. 5) On more than one occasion, a member of staff has attempted to pressure us into making large decisions regarding payment, and ignored my friend's calls and emails about the mattress until we were forced to pay. I am never one to go online and give such long, negative reviews. But the service and quality of this place was one of the worst experiences we've had to deal with. I would NEVER rent from them again. But if anyone's in a position where they have no other choice (like we did), TAKE PICTURES OF EVERYTHING. E V E R Y T H I N G. They will try to get as much money off the backs of unknowing students as they can. Don't let yourselves be swindled.

Is it legal for Property Letting Agents to take commissions from Contractors when the source of the problem is the Agent themselves?

The absolute worst agency I have ever used. Constant unprofessionalism, lack of knowledge and morsl disregard demonstrated throughout the tenancy.

There were lots of things that were broken upon moving in - doors that didn't close properly, broken hinges on doors, wires chewed by mice, broken oven. Andrews did repair these things, but it was often cheap labour which didn't always fully fix the problem, and when the larger problem... Read Full Review

Very well informed agents. The house we were selling was in an area under prospective redevelopment and we were nervous about being able to sell it. Andrews were more confident about selling it than other agents and very reassuring. They valued the property higher than we expected (and higher than... Read Full Review
I negotiated a fixed fee agreement on the sale and this meant that the fees came out cheaper than the other agents we spoke too. Also no tie in to using any of their conveyancing agents which was fantastic (some of the others we spoke to did) as we already had solicitors in place. Fairly standard price for using a branch based estate agent.
