Remove your instructions now (hopefully nil to pay) - and don't choose any tenants already passed on. You need to know the name of every tenant that contacted them to avoid a problem. Ask them to disclose that (if they refuse you are absolved if you happen to get the same tenant so make sure it is ...

Not answering your queries does sound unprofessional, on the other hand if they are still awaiting the T's to complete the credit and reference checks this could be the hold up. I would probably give the agent and the T's one additional week, otherwise you are terminating any agreement.

Thanks for all the help and advice with this. I've opted to get my own inventory check done instead of going with that of the Letting Agency and they agreed to it.

Agent Advice in Essex

by Donchik

Dear all,
Does anyone recommend any review sites for letting agents that are based on the satisfaction of the Landlords, rather than the tenants?
If not would anyone with experience of dealing with agents in Essex have any recommendations/advice?
Cheers

Follow on Letting Agreement

by thefirz

I have a great tenant and the previous Agreement has expired. I have instructed the Agent to draft a follow on Agreement (for a defined fee) but with the rent collection service removed.

During the life of the last Agreement the Agent revised its T&Cs from those I signed up to. These...

Either replace the agent if you live far away from the property, or self manage and cut out any agent.
