I had a viewing scheduled at 3:30, but the agent was over 11 minutes late without any prior communication. When contacted, the agent attempted to deceive me about their arrival time. I understand that delays can occur however it's unacceptable to be dishonest about it. This lack of professionalism and honesty reflects poorly on the agency's service. Based on my experience, I would not recommend dealing with them.... Read more

These people are animals and have no ethics. Avoid them at all costs, you wouldn’t believe my experience with them if I told you. They are the worst kind of humans possible and have no empathy, they are extremely unprofessional and will find any way to get more money out of you.... Read more

Unfortunately our experience with this estate agent has been really negative. While the landlord has always tried to help, we have never managed to get anything sorted by calling the agency. Our WIFI has not been working for the last 3 weeks at least, however after calling several times and raising 3 incidents on the website, no-one has ever come to fix the issue or even contacted us....

Run. Don't use them. Can't see any reason someone would give them 5 stars. Poor service and organisation from all staff, particularly Caine. Will come after your deposit despite moving you in to a filthy, unclean flat without all the keys. Only care about money. AVOID AT ALL COSTS... Read more

If you happen to make the mistake of picking this estate agency for your home PLEASE take videos and pictures of EVERY single patch of your new home before you move in.
Adams took every last bit of my deposit because the previous tenants left marks on the walls and carpet that I got charged for in the end. They did not make a inventory check before we moved in, they had absolutely no pictures of the walls or carpets ( I wonder why.. hmm)
I've had their services for 2 years and they've always been unresponsive to maintenance issues that we told them about constantly.
Furthermore, the people working inside the business seem to have a "its your problem mate, not mine" mentality whenever there is an issue.
Even the inventory inspection person that used to come regulary always told us about Adams unprofessional attitude and used to talk smack about them.
If you care about your money dont use this estate agency.... Read more

the 5 star reviews are because they give pizza to people who move in. They will come for your deposit, we were charged 30 quid for a 'loose thread' on a bed. Make sure you take photos of everything (including how full bin is as this is apparently chargeable £60) would recommend going to another agent, we were with space and mushtaq last year although he was not the best there were no problems at checkout or with getting our deposit back....

If I could put 0 stars, I would. Horrendous service.
My daughter moved out of her property a year gone, in May. She was not supported by Adams in finding new tenants and she was blamed for the actions of the other tenants that had been camping out in her room, after moving out, despite having evidence from myself and her that she had not been residing in the property for over a year. They did not communicate throughout the whole ordeal.
The problems with the house were blamed on the students, like the washing machine and boiler, which they could not have fixed themselves without the consent of the landlord/estate agents anyway.... Read more

If I could give them 0 stars I would... We have had continual communication issues with Adams throughout the year. I was given a disgusting mattress with what looked like urine stains on it, which they didn't replace for weeks, it was only when I got my dad to call for me did they take my request seriously, and even then he had to bug them. The communication I have received with them has been filled with attitude, essentially saying the issues we have had are our own responsibility.
The majority of the good reviews, I imagine, are because they bribe students with domino's vouchers if they leave a good review... kind of representative of their whole ethos.... Read more

AVOID ! Absolutely shocking ! Communication does not exist ! Chased and practically hounded for a deposit ect only to find out that the property had been given to some one else. Even after I had been told that I had secured the property. Chasing for refund of deposit is still ongoing. PLEASE TAKE NOTE... These are not professionals.... Read more

Poor service right from the beginning of our tenancy. The agents do not care for tenants- beware, they will try and charge you extra fees once you have moved in. It takes weeks for them to take action on maintenance requests. Do not expect your full deposit back, we spent over £200 on a professional clean because they said we had to and they still took a large proportion of our deposit.... Read more

Adams Estates attempted to take from my household's deposit for general wear & tear issues present before moving into the house (e.g. a slightly loose window handle & dips in a carpet where a bed had once stood). We called back and forth for 2 months to get our money back, only having success after the landlord had told Adams Estates they were being unfair.
They also hadn't cleaned rooms before allowing my household to move in, hence one individual found a mouldy pizza and soiled condoms under their bed.
The company also failed to mention a rat infestation before we moved in. While they had hired pest control to poison the rats, the smell of rotting flesh inside ceiling and flies in my room made for an unwelcoming start.
Adams Estates never apologised for their failings.... Read more

Cowboy landlords. We were offered £10 back each from our £400 deposits. We spend hours ensuring the property was in a good state when moving out. They took our deposit money for damage that was caused by their own maintenance people. They have done to this to many of my friends also. They make it as difficult as possible to get your deposit back by going throuh a lead tenant and drawing the process out. AVOID... Read more

The only reason they have such a high rating is because they give people dominos vouchers if you give a 5 star rating in front of them. When realistically they’re an awful company, staff are rude, if you’re a student living in one of their properties it will be nothing but hell. They take forever to sort out any issues you have, they leave your doors open when no one is in the house, and upon moving in you will realise they have not made any effort to clean the place for you arrival. AVOID!!!... Read more

Property listings are matched to data from the Land Registry by our clever algorithm. Clever as it may be, it isn't always right, especially if a property was listed by multiple agents. The asking price is the original listing price, NOT the final listing price.
