We recently had the pleasure of working with Sean Connolly during the purchase of our new home! He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable and responsive. From start to finish, the experience was smooth and enjoyable. We would highly recommend Sean at Martin & Co to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Thank you

A big thank you to Neal for delivering a professional service over the years. Always proactive, be it organising inspections, maintenance or having repairs arranged. I was always kept informed and he was always on hand to respond to any queries in good time and with the relevant information.
Having Neal as a familiar point of contact when Martin and Co took over was very reassuring as the same level of service was maintained. My best wishes to Neal and to all the staff at Martin and Co.

Thank you to Neal and Cara for their support during my tenancy. Their support during property inspections and maintenance ensured I had a trouble free experience and, by working with them on property management & inspection, they helped me keep the house in excellent condition resulting in return of my full deposit after 4 years of stay! I wholeheartedly recommend Martin & Co in the Bedford area for lettings.

Martins &Co Bedford have been really helpful with finding leaseholders to sign up to our Right to manage.
Many of the leaseholders in the block use Martins as their service is excellent. We also let a house through them which was on recommendation. We weren’t disappointed! One of their strengths is quick responses which is really reassuring. Everything is dealt with in a professional and friendly manner. We would definitely recommend for lettings!

My wife and I were at the beginning of our journey to downsize. Now that the kids have all gone, we wanted to pick the brains of a local estate agent. We could not have done any better than choose Martin and Co in Bedford. Their sales negotiator Lorraine was an absolute joy. Friendly, informative and very matter of fact, which is exactly what we needed. With Lorraine’s help we saw several properties and found our dream house on a new development in Biddenham. Thanks Lorraine. You’ve really helped so much.

As a first-time landlord, Martin & Co Bedford made the whole process incredibly smooth. From finding a tenant to sorting out all the paperwork and regulations, they went above and beyond.

Brilliant company! When looking for a house in the Bedford area we found one throw Martin and co.

I found that Lorraine has had 20 years of experience in her field.
I contacted her at Martin &co to look at a property which was quite new to me, I found that she was very professional in her manner and also knew the area where I wanted to buy my first property.
I’m so happy that Lorraine came my way, she was very confident and knew her job inside out.
I’m seriously thinking about the possibility of buying in my chosen area.

I currently rent a property through Martin & Co and had recently have been in touch regarding new carpets being fitted. We had a swift and detailed response from Cara Beckford. She was extremely polite throughout the process and made sure to keep us posted in regards to communication from the landlord. There was never any sign of reluctantly around proposing this to the Landlord, which is usually something other estate agents would do. We have since had an visit from the Landlord and have come to an agreement. I fed this back to the Landlord also, but wanted to highlight how much of an asset Cara is to your company and we are extremely grateful with the service she provided. 5*!

As a tenant I would say avoid at all cost - the worst and least responsive agency I’ve come across - significant fault reported with the flat we’re renting in October 2022 - well it’s October 2023 and apart from rent increase nothing has been repaired - AWFUL !

Hi Minhazul.
Thank you very much for your superb work ensuring that my tenant had a new gas boiler installed and the central heating system updated.
You chose good contractors who did the work to a high standard.
You covered every detail and ensured that the gas boiler was registered enabling me to get a 5 year parts and labour guarantee.
Best wishes,
Bob.

I have used M&Co for my 3 properties for 13 years and find them to be professional in every way. Every problem my tenants have is sorted out super fast and with no stress to myself. Diana Gaglio has been so very helpful and has recently saved me £100 by shopping around for a better deal on an item for one of my properties. She always responds to my emails the same day, I have no worries as Diana is very competent and knows how to deal with all aspects of rental management. I really cant fault the service I have had with M&Co over the years. They take away the stress I would surely have if I tried to manage the properties myself.

Additionally this lady is a delight to deal with. Congratulations Habib on adding this professional member to your team

I have worked alongside Habib and the team and Martin & Co in Bedford on a number of transactions. Habib is always responsive and helpful and aims to push things along as and when they can be. He has always checked in throughout transactions when communications have gone quiet and provided a fantastic understanding of the processes, issues involved and client needs. I would thoroughly recommend their services. Professional, thorough and attentive.

We had this agency for 2 years. Unprofessional staff, booking appointments for gas certificate more than 3 times, engineer never arrived but we had to make cancel our plans for them and when I tried to explain is not convenient for us one appointment , Yasmin answer was "well we have the keys,we will go inside without your attendance" ...and we asked to have tenant witness on our application for every viewing or appointments.
Avoid this agency, completely unprofessional!!!!

When asking about the possibility of accepting a tenant on housing benefit, expect a hard no. They will not talk to you like a human or care about your situation - and there are many of us currently struggling due to the virus. Poor customer service and very unhelpful.

Called for information about a property. Apparently it's against company policy to tell any details of properties without first knowing every single detail of your life, I'm talking address, bank details the lot.
To top it off Michelle was extraordinarily rude. Told me it was her terms or I don't get a house.
Dumbness aside, who do you think you are? You work for an estate agents love!
Miss high almighty means I'll be avoiding Martin and Co

Been with Martin & Co the last year, fantastic. So stress free compared to previous rental experiences. Couple problems with the cooker and white goods, sorted quickly and without fuss (Thanks Jasmine and Michelle!). Offer plenty of notice for the inspection, don't give me any hassle.
Staff are always polite, they never forget to call back or respond to an email. No complaints.

I initially called the office seeking some advice as I was having troubles with a tenant. I spoke to another agency before calling Martin & Co but no one seemed interested in helping. When I called this office I was passed through to Charlotte, and she took the time to listen and talked me through what options I have. She was really understanding and was able to answer any questions I had. Although the problems I had seemed never ending, she was always there and willing to help. She certainly knew her stuff and we now have fantastic new tenants and Martin & Co are our new managing agents. Highly recommend 5*

Moved into a flat that was left in a disgusting condition. Urine was left in the toilet which stunk up the property upon walking in for the first time. We had to shampoo the carpet before moving furniture in. We also extensively cleaned the kitchen and bathroom ourselves (including the toilet) - something that should have been done before having been handed the keys!
Over a week later and after immediately informing Martin & Co. of this, I was told by email that "Martin & Co, are not legally obliged to have the property professionally cleaned".

Martin & Co have been the most professional estate agents I have used. I sold my property via M&C and from day one their attention to detail, prompt communication and efficiency was noticeable. I was kept very well informed on the progress of my sale and every query was answered with care and interest, this lead to a pain free sale and they also achieved a sale above my asking price. I will be recommending Martin & Co to any friend who needs an estate agent

These are quite possibly the worst agents around. We were left without electricity for 3 days, hot water/ heating for 7 days and water for 2 days. They said just go to your friends house then, then they tried to take 75% of our deposit when we moved out. They are very shifty. Always check their extra charges and photograph everything when you move in and out. This has been a very steep and expensive learning curve. They come round whenever they want for a surprise inspection. They are rude and do not answer any queries you have. I found the women there to be worse than the men, especially if you are a woman complaining. They treated me and my partner like we were prisoners with no rights. Do not use, you have been warned.

Martin & Co are the worst lettings agents I have ever dealt with . in my the staff are
unprofessional and very rude, unhelpful when there are issues then never respond quickly we had to wait over one month for some one to come and fix the fences and the the kitchen light unite,
Be aware of them before you move in they make it for you 5 star service everything it is ok with no problems at all.
Be aware when you want to move out they will make it for you the hardest and the most expensive day for you even the inventory check you will pay for there staff to do for you.
When we moved in
- The fridge was dirty with fungi we did clean it our self.
-hole in the wall
- The bed and mattress very dirty we ask them to move it they never did even we have our bed and mattress.
- The carpets dirty smelling we clean it.
- Scratches on the doors and windows
- The paint everywhere in the kitchen
*** just to be aware all of this not listed on the inventory list and we have to pay money from our deposit when we check out.****

I would recommend them very highly.They are:Methodical, Articulate, Resourcefull, Thorough, Involved and Negotious
