Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.
Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.
We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.
Ask the firm for their side of the story.

A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

Customer Review
two bedroom semi-detached house built in 1962 in cusworth just north of doncaster
"I am very impressed with big red house they managed all the front end requirements legal and buiding compliancy at the time of letting (this is my first property) and have subsequently continued to manage (minor) tenant issues from day one.
I have never used them before but from the start they were very professional and have been very focused to giving good customer service to both myself and the tenant and I have no complaints at all
