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.
 


 
Code of Practice

You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  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.

Modern top floor flat with a garage. Communal gardens close to High Street and super market and train station with links to London zone 5 train station. 2 bedroom.
 

"Very friendly staff. However I wanted the process to be completed very quickly and it took a lot longer then it should. I viewed flat on day that I phoned up and didn't move in until a couple of weeks later. Bearing in mind that we decided to take property and we provided most of our documents on the day we first viewed. Then the rest of our documents the following day. Some documents were not passed onto relevant people and I had to make a couple of un-needed journey stand phone calls. But very nice staff."
