These bigots will never ever respond to any issues. Its absolutely disgraceful to how they manipulated us as first year students into thinking they provide good services and initially giving them a 5 star rating. They dont ever meet their promises, saying how they would let me put my boxes in their spare room in the estate as im not local and would be going back to my country during the summer break, how they would trim off the grasses at the lawn and worst of all how they would instantly be at your doorstep to fix any damaged items. This business should not be operating and to new students, please do not finance their unethical and unprofessional services any further!!!... Read more

avoid if you can!! had a truly bad experience. the listing promised desk chairs and desks in all rooms, they did not have them. moved in to the kitchen rotting, dirty walls, broken furniture in all rooms that they clearly did not care to fix prior to our move. they clearly pocketed the previous tenants deposit money without spending anything to sort the house prior to our move. this was shown by the fact that when we deep cleaned the house before leaving, a drawer i left completely empty all year was black with dirt when wiped. i am now in a house let by adams estates and they are fast to fix any problems and much kinder and more considerate to students....

The least professional office staff I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with.

Had a great experience with cintra estates. They all are very helpful, very polite and friendly. Asif sir helped us when we were in desperate need and didn't know who to ask for help. We were tired of looking for a accommodation for months but no luck and that's when Asif sir helped us and gave us a roof on our head. They also helped our friends couple of weeks back even when they didn't have anything at that time but still Asif sir tried to help them by phoning other agents, their family and friends if they had something for our friends and thank God they got a flat. All thanks to cintra estates staff. God bless them all. ????... Read more

Please I beg of you, if you are a new student at Reading, AVOID THESE LOT AT ALL COSTS! We went there not suspecting the pure vicious and criminal behaviour these lot elicit. They undermine everything you do, they refuse to help if you have an issue, they took our deposit and it took us 6 months after the usual date to get it back after the 12 month tenancy. They are AWFUL. 1 star is actually almost too nice to these thugs. They will lure you in as a naive first year student and undercut you completely. Keep your wits about you, avoid these guys, and use a better estate agents like Student Space, or Westgate, or Adam’s!! Coming from a 4 year masters student who used Cintra idiots in first year. Ps… these guys effectively entered my friends home without any warning or permission or 24 hour notice which is illegal…... Read more

I have rented a property through Cintra and had the worst experience ever. They are completely incompetent cowboys that messed up our contracts and move in dates. We didn't have anywhere to live for 2 weeks and they didn't even apologise or try to make it right. The guys in their office can't speak English properly and are extremely rude and unprofessional. They made our lives a living hell from their shoddy work with the contracts. They also play games and say they're fixing thing with the landlord but in reality hadn't even spoken to him at all. Avoid Cintra at all costs - there are many other agents offering a far better service that won't leave you homeless.... Read more

Shameless and callous company and if possible, avoid. The agents and director are friendly enough upon first meeting, but this is a facade and their ambivalence to student welfare soon becomes apparent. They will likely attempt to keep your deposit and if you do not hound them for months they will succeed. Luckily for the most part we dealt directly with the landlords, but every interaction we had with Cintra was drawn-out, unprofessional and wholly unpleasant. Their agents often failed to inform us about veiwings - letting themselves into the house without permission - and were frequently very late. Neil even lied to our landlords about us (in an attempt to convince them we were uncooperative), but thankfully they trusted us enough not to believe his underhandnded tactics. The listing for our property included incorrect information and photos from other properties. Our landlords made Cintra aware of this, but they failed to make any changes for months, prolonging the time spent searching for the next years tennants. During the veiwings, the agents were unable to answer the most basic questions about the property and my housemates and I often took over. The agents would often claim that our furniture and TV came with the property, even after being corrected many times! Ultimately, I am not sure how this company continues to operate in such a way. Our experience was gentler than many, but this was enough for us to come to completely despise them and their business practices.... Read more

Few months ago I adverstised my studio with Cintra almost for a month and not a single viewing was arranged and the manager Neil is never available either on phone or SMS or email. In fact the one single viewing he arranged who actually tried to bargain on site, the agent did not turn up ,as owner I had to do it myself. The agent does not even spend 15 mintutes to take proffessional pictures or vidoes, in fact they use the pictures taken by owners on their phones. One key point is during the month we had to reduce the rent from £700 to £650 to £600...each time we reduced Cintra left the old ad as it is on rightmove and created a new one with reduced price. At one point they had 3 ads for my property with different prices but same pics...I don't think anything could be more horrible than this, as it made my property look like a dodgy one.......no one came closer for viewings because of this!!! So lazy that they can't edit an existing ad or remove an old one!!! what a shame. All in all I wasted a lot of time by advertising with Cintra. Will I used them again - NO, will I recommend them to any one - NO. If you are intelligent DONT go near these agents!! Regards, Satish... Read more

I cannot stress how much you should stay away from these criminals. I rented from Cintra/ Ridgemoor properties in my second year at uni (2018-2019) and they took an insanely large deposit from the outset. The House was in bad condition for the money we paid and they were slow to respond to maintenance requests, if they ever did at all. When we left the house, we requested our deposit back as normal but they did not bother to respond to our emails/ calls for months. I then registered a formal dispute with the protection agency. It was at this point they finally got in touch with us to return the money. They are genuinely criminals - STAY AWAY.... Read more

(Translated by Google) Friends from China, especially classmates, please pay special attention not to find a house through Cintra Estate. It is a fraudulent subsidiary. I signed the contract. After paying the contract, even the contract refused to give me the reason that the house should be in a disputed state. Ca n’t check in because it ’s so messed up that they ca n’t live at all. Nothing they guarantee is more than that. In this case, they also gave the deposit to the registration and tried everything to prevent you from seeing the landlord. It ’s useless because no one is going to direct you to them. Only two people are quite rude, and they will drive you away.

The director is not a man of his word and operates as a typical estate agent where he always has to have the last word and lies to get his way. Be very cautious when dealing with this bunch. They will lie, cheat and scheme to try to get their way and when they are unable to get their way they will lash out to hurt your or your business in any way they can. I would suggest that you have no dealings with this company unless you want to come out feeling frustrated over how unjust they were with you.... Read more

The staff there were terrible, they subletted our house without our permission over the summer preventing us from moving in, and then just shoved us in another house with so much rubbish and broken furniture in it. There was even mold growing in one of the rooms when we came round to collect keys. We complained so many times about this but the staff never responded. They even said this is standard procedure for "international students' and that they didn't care about whether we complained or not because we couldn't talk to anyone else. They also didn't return our deposit until several months later and were extremely unhelpful.... Read more

AVOID AT ALL COSTS Save yourself the time and stress and do not go with Cintra Estates! The landlords they work with at Ridgemoor properties are absolutely impossible to get in contact with are have no idea what they are talking about when they do decide to answer the phone. We heard excuse after excuse and counless contradictory statements regarding our extortionate house deposit which took us 3 months of pure hell to get back! The most unprofessional and rude staff we have ever come across. Mr. Khan patronised and talked down to my housemates and I when we demanded action taken about our deposit, acting as if he was doing us a personal favour by looking into our case and saying 'you students can't tell your head from your a**'.

Cintra Estates and Ridgemoor Properties are honestly the worst two companies (possibly one because Ridgemoor doesn't seem to exist anywhere), I have ever had to deal with. They took just about three months to give back our deposit, every time we phoned up we were given a different reason and a different deadline for the money being returned. Every other time we phoned up they ignored us. We know this because we would call up on other numbers and they would answer straight away. During our tenancy they would take weeks to come out and fix things (three weeks for a washing machine), (never came and fixed the ivy growing in my room despite telling everyone that came round). In a recent meeting my flatmates were told "students can't tell their head from their arses". I found the members of the establishment to be extremely helpful until we moved in to the property, after which it was difficult communication and no help at all.... Read more

They advocate the company ‘Ridgemoor Properties’ which looks after the house on behalf of the landlord. This sister company is appalling with their service, and took 3 months for us to recieve our extortionate deposit back, after many ignored calls and emails. In the calls that were picked up we were told on various occasions that our deposit would be returned by a specific date, which obviously never occurred. Coincidentally our deposit was returned when we rang Cintra to complain about Ridgemoor Properties, stating that as an advocate of the corrupt company, we will also be taking them to court too. This company is full of sharks- do not use.... Read more

On top of that we caught one of their 'cleaners' (really just some guy who undoubtedly had connections to people at cintra) smoking weed in our garden when he was 'cleaning' the property. They also seem to be paying for google reviews. notice that the most recent 5 star reviewers all say pretty much the exact same thing. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

Grossly incompetent and unprofessional avoid at all costs! These individuals put on a good act being all professional and friendly up until the point when you need something from them. Our property was infested with rats and to say that they weren’t helpful would be an understatement, we informed them of the problem in November, and by the time we moved out in June there were as many as ever! Any blame you try and place on them they will simply blame Ridgemoor Properties, which is a subset of them, and suggest that they are trying to look after you. This is most certainly not the case, they are simply trying to line their pockets by dodging fees and any charges. For example, the agent that was in charge of our property requested that a bank payment was done through my personal account to a third party, in order for them to avoid any potential tax or charge on the money. Finally and what is most disgusting about this agency is their inability to return a sizeable deposit to us despite the fact that we moved out of the property 2 months ago! There has been countless missed calls and fabricated stories that the agent has come up with. We have been in contact with the landlord directly and he has been lying to him as well, suggesting that Ridgemoor had the deposit in spite of the fact that we paid the deposit directly to cintra. They are likely to be running a lot of things illegally and off the books due to the fact that they demand large sums of money in cash with a huge charge on using bank transfers. A truly disgusting company who line their pockets at the expense of financially vulnerable students. Safe to say I am in the process of complaining to the property ombudsman and I would encourage everyone else to do the same.... Read more

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE!! Well where do I begin with Cintra...This estate agents is a complete sham. The agency’s owner and ring leader, Asif Khan, has successfully dodged calls and dodged the return of our deposit for almost 2 months now. The landlord has stated that the house is in perfect condition and Asif should return the deposit in full. However, Mr Khan has fabricated a different story every time we attempt to contact him concerning it. As well as gross incompetence, there is quite obviously tax evasion/money laundering occurring at Cintra. Asif came to our house and asked one of my housemates to be the middle man in a money transfer between ridgemoor properties (a subgroup of Cintra) and Cintra estates. Hopefully we get the deposit back before the tax man comes knocking! All in all avoid this shambolic excuse for an estate agency at all costs as not only are they extremely poor at their jobs. They are most probably operating outside of the law.... Read more

Avoid Cintra Estates at all costs! They put on a front and seem like professional staff in the office, but their practices couldn't be far from it! To start they couldn't even provide house keys when moving in as they'd lost them and then we enter the house for it to look like this!!!! They then shift the blame onto Ridgemoor who pass it back to Cintra, all very confusing... and so we couldn't move in. After many emails and phone calls the property was ready to move into... but it was hardly "professional" clean as they call it. No reimbursement for rent baring in mind the property was unliveable for at least 3 months. Problems continued as the house was barely legal, was a struggle to even ask for a carbon monoxide detector fitted!!! Things got so bad we got Environmental Health round as my room didn't even have a radiator.. We never saw the landlord no idea who he was, if you want anything done be prepared to send countless emails and phone calls, it's not going to be easy. Took 2 months to get the deposit back.... endless excuses were made up again shifting the blame onto Ridgemoor and the "landlord". They will never give money back unless you pester them for months on end, funny how they are so quick to ask for money yet fail to give it back.. Most unprofessional business I have ever encountered, caused me, my housemates and family ridiculous amounts of stress and we could never feel relaxed as there would always be some sort of problem with both these so called businesses. So glad the 3 years are over so we never have to deal with them again.... Read more

Do not ever deal with this estate agency. The staff may be friendly, but that can only cover up so much of the deep flaws of their service. Communication is awful, their handyman sometimes ignores calls. Management never calls back when promised. Almost nothing fixed or refurbished, no action taken at all (except "cleaned") 4 months after the 2 week "promise" of fixing the place up. Broken glass still left in the garden, oven doesn't work, cracks and holes in walls, ceilings and doors. At least two lightbulbs not working. Fire alarms found without batteries, wires left uncovered. The house was inadequate; the service and management were appalling. Overall, a terrible experience I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy....

I am writing my review on Ridgmoor who i am under the impression are a sub group of Cintra. As I signed the contract and received my keys from Cintra, I assume that they are responsible for the conditions endured at least in part. I entered into a contract with five other housemates at the beginning of July 2017. Cintra assured us that the house we agreed to rent would be totally refurbished by the end of summer, in which time we would all be moving in. The house was not refurbished in its entirety, the kitchen being the only thing that was worked on, which was a complete health hazard when we viewed it. Upon moving in we found that the showers weren't working as promised. We had to meet with a highly unskilled handyman sent by the estate agents. We would have random workmen appear at our door without being notified at all by the landlords. We had our doors removed and replaced without warning and had them thrown carelessly in our front and back garden, with an empty promise that they would be picked up and disposed of soon. It never happened. We were hounding the landlords to fix any and all maintenance issues for the entirety of the contract by they never did anything solved the issue for little more than a day. Our deposits were not given back to us for over two months. Our lead tenant had to email them and phone them during a holiday. When he got through to them they made the baseless claim that we hadn't paid them rent all year. Because we were students, landlords like this take advantage of our lack of knowledge of property law, and lack of options, providing a sub par services because their attitude is; "Well? What are you gonna do about it?" The most we can really do is leave an honest review about our terrible experiences, so they can either be better or be nothing.... Read more

I went to help my daughter move into her new house today, it was let by Cintra Estates on behalf of Ridgemoor. After letting them know that we would be coming and making a 4 hour return journey we found the property was in an absolutely appalling state, we could not even leave a bag there. This is over a month after we started paying the rent. I am absolutely mortified to find this post from 6 months ago, below. I am very worried that we have been conned and that my daughter will be in an unsafe environment. Cintra (& Ridgemoor) have made mine and my housemate's stay in our house HELL. They have completely conned us. They do no repairs (we asked from June 2017, we've only recently had most repairs completed) and the repairs are inadequate. This property has been dangerous to live in. They do not reply to phone calls or emails. They are rude. Mr Khan is a horrifically disgusting human being, and the property manager is also terrible. They are rude and unkind. You should all know they've had lots of legal action taken out against them and they are currently bankrupt.

Cintra estates Reading are not a company you should rely on. We went to 4 viewings yesterday, and asked the company to send us an email RIGHT away with pictures of the houses we went to. We didn't receive the email that day, and we had to call 3 TIMES the next day to have them to send us the pictures. When we finally got the pictures, we replied to minutes after "We want the house, how should we do this? Do you want us to stop by today" They never replied, and i called back two hours later, and then the house was taken. I cant belive it. We were going to decide right after we got the pictures of the houses, and its their fault we didn't get this house. This is so unprofessional.... Read more

I am about to move from one Cintra property to another with a day between contracts. I was assured by the manager when signing the paperwork that we'd be taken care of in between tenancies, provided with somewhere to stay in between. At this time I was asked to review Cintra on google. However, now that the time has come, that same manager jas told me they can't do this, and made no effort to help find a solution. They'll say anything to make you happy to make sale or get a review, but fail to deliver on their promises. I feel utterly betrayed.... Read more

We were a group of 7 boys, previously wen't through both Adams and Westgate estate agents, although they couldn't find us anything up to our standards and Adams were quite pushy with payments, which we didn't like. We understood that Cintra had some bad rumours flying about, but we still wanted to check all our options, so we decided to go to them after. However, when we went to Cintra they were very friendly, helpful and had lots of options for us that were all of a good quality. We felt prioritised and they supplied a van to take us all around with, which before the other agents didn't and this was quite annoying being made to walk to see each of the households. Another main point we were happy about was their relaxed nature about the procedure, they weren't pushy and they listened to what we exactly wanted, rather than just supplying us with whatever they had. Overall, the whole experience with Cintra was fast, easy and successful. I also can't personally pick out any negative points, so I would happily recommend their services to anyone else - especially student housing wise.... Read more

At first they seemed ok, a little pushy rushing us from house to house and telling us how much we didn't really have much time to choose as they'd all be gone soon. From there on in we felt like an inconvenience to them. We were ill-informed about payments, they were disorganised with what we owed and what we had paid. We had been with them for almost 5 months, yet they had no idea who we were or what our file was- which did nothing for customer service. They ignored our requests not to be contacted by third parties and happily sent them our information and mobile numbers! The last straw was attempting to talk to them on the phone and being hung up!- Then they ask us to write a review because "fake" bad reviews by their competitors are being set up- which sounds like a awful petty excuse. Although from face family it seemed like any other agency- lack of customer service and complete disorganisation would make this one to go with.... Read more

Cintra Estates(Christchurch Road)- adjacent to the University of Reading is simply amazing. The staff working there are very welcoming and quite helpful...... I mean they do not relent until your housing issue/problem is sorted out. As a foreign/international student my greatest headache when I got University Admission was where to live especially since University Accommodation was exhausted. I dropped them and other Letting Agents an e-mail a month before travelling to the UK and unlike the others, they responded effectively giving me several available options. Upon my arrival, I did several viewings free of charge......yes, no fees charged on students, what more could a student want??? What I also like about them is that they do not leave you stranded even after you have let the house. One time I had a problem with plumbing and they took it up with my landlord and the issue was fixed immediately...... .....................good work Bilal, Tom and Team.

Professional and friendly service! I needed to rent over the summer and they managed to find me a decent and affordable place. Bilal showed me a variety of places and gave me an option to choose. Everything was done very quickly and efficiently!!... Read more

Essentially the same as the other on here, pressured into renting an overly expensive, poor quality house. House has been literally falling apart, we were assured we were with cintra's "Top landlord". Landlord tells us Cintra is in charge of repairs and refuses to help, Cintra claims landlord is in charge of repairs. Do NOT use this agent, completely unprofessional and exceptionally expensive....

In our 3 years at Reading University We have tried all of the student agencies in Reading and Cintra Estates gave us the best service. They helped us find a great house and organised for us to meet the landlord which other agencies failed to do. This was important to us as we had problems with previous landlords. Thank you Cintra Estates we happily recommend you :)... Read more

Possibly one of the most unhelpful and unprofessional agencies I have ever dealt with in all my life. Words cannot express how disappointed I was with the customer service that was bestowed upon us. Their office is shoddy and unwelcoming, which is more that can be said about their manner. We were constantly put under pressure to agree to take various houses that were not up to scratch, and we were constantly being shown houses that were not suitable for our needs. Their sales tactics boarder on pressure selling, and they feel that just because we are students they can pull the wool over our eyes. The man who was showing us around houses was rude and was making sweeping generalisations about current tenants which made everybody in the party feel uneasy and unwelcome. Indeed Cintra Estates should be used in universities as a case study for poor institutions.... Read more

It seemed like we were an inconvenience for them, and they rushed around trying to pressure us into a rubbish house by saying things like 'oh that one's just gone, see its like that' 'another estate agent is about to take this one, but we can get in there first' and constantly telling us how few houses there were left. The prices on the windows differed to those told to us inside, and also most of the window houses were not available. They rushed to the door as soon as they saw us, and were just generally unfriendly. I will be telling everyone to avoid them in the future. I'd say space were much better, very friendly and honest about things. The first house we saw with space was the one we chose. It seems like Cintra show the worst houses first because they want to get rid of them.... Read more
