Northwood Peterborough Estate & Letting Agent has been managing; letting, my 2-bed property, for well over 10 years. I have found the entire team to be extremely professional, knowledgeable, very reliable, very friendly and trustworthy. Special mention to Jill, Andrew, Rebecca and Emma. Accurate records are maintained concerning all aspects of my property managment and maintenance, Health & Safety Checks etc. If something needs to be 'fixed' on my property, I'm informed quickly via email and visual evidence and given the option of employing a contractor of my choice. They also have a team of suitably qualified contractors who have carried out recommended maintenance work, identified by Legal Bodies, to a high standard and in a timely manner. I recommend Northwood Estate Agent highly. Thanks for making the experience far less stressful.... Read more

I would just like to say that Northwood Peterborough have let out my property for over 5 years and I am very happy with the service they provide. They look after everything very efficiently and this means I do not have to worry about anything. I have had the same tenant for all that time and they also seem to be happy with Northwood. They are a nice, friendly family lettings agent and it is a no brainer for me to cooperate with them as they really look after you. Nice work!... Read more

Avoid these irresponsible and arrogant agents! I have contact to book a viewing and they got back to me only an hour before the viewing time which I obviously couldn’t manage because I have a full time job while a full time student. However, I tried to make it but I was late and only about 20 minutes after the viewing time I got this email. “You have not showed for the viewing or called to confirm you could not make it, so please avoid contacting us again for any further viewings.” This is the most arrogant and unprofessional response I have ever received. Imagine dealing with these people for a year or two.... Read more

My family wouldn’t touch this awful company ever again, a bunch of unprofessional liars who ended up withholding my family’s guaranteed rent due to a complete stranger phoning them and who they couldn’t even be bothered to verify. Their attitudes are appalling and disgusting, a good ‘family business’, ha! When something doesn’t go their way and they end up having to deal with something bigger than their expertise (little that they have), they have a character change immediately, disgraceful....

Out of all the estate agents in Peterborough I have spoke to Northwood is by far the worst! When I called I was spoken to by a very rude unprofessional woman who would not discuss anything at all over the phone with me and would only communicate by email (really not ideal) we asked to view a property she was very rude and uncooperative we ended up decided we didn't want to view it at all because we want to go through an estate agent where we feel we aren't going to have constant trouble with and being messed about by! I will in future be avoiding looking or going for any property that are with Northwood!... Read more

My experience being a tenant for more than two years at a property under Northwood letting agency was a positive one.

Moving out was an exceptionally smooth process on the agency’s part -clear instructions were given and the member of staff that I was dealing with was nothing but polite and helpful.... Read more

Amazing agency ! I had some mixed experience with letting agencies before. But I have to say Northwood is defiantly on top of the list. 1) First of all they where quick to let me to view the property 2) Than the processes of references and paper work went very smoothly 3) Once I was accepted, and came to pick up keys, they have welcomed me with a GIFT BOX full of useful coupons for household items and some snacks 4) When I moved in there was some tinny problems, they where very quick to respond and within 3 days of me moving to the property those problems where addressed Would defiantly recommend !...

Rebecca is wonderful, whenever we sent her an email about anything we needed she was very prompt and answered us and in the future, if we will want to rent another house we will definitely contact her and this agency again.

Having endured a tumultuous past three years, I found myself at rock bottom in my life, trying to rebuild from scratch. I spent six months solid, searching for a suitable property but because of my personal circumstances, nobody would help and the majority of property agents in the city, closed the door on me, figuratively... I was quoted extortionate fees and at times, the general attitude towards me from some of these agencies was prejudice and rude. And then along comes Jill at Northwood... I emailed regarding a property of interest and she swiftly responded with positivity and hope despite being already made aware of my circumstances. I viewed the property, filled out all the paperwork that very same day and within two weeks, I was moving in... six months searching and meeting dead ends was ended in 14 days with Northwood!!! Jill was fantastic, she was empathetic, she was without prejudice and she gave me an opportunity when nobody else would. The rest of the team that worked on my application were also fantastic... Rebecca Norris and Kayleigh Shepstone... both were informative, efficient and both treated me respectfully, they too, were desperate to help me find a place to rebuild my life. Update as of November 2020 Two years on and I’m still with Northwood Peterborough. As we all know, 2020 has brought new challenges for us... what with the COVID-19 pandemic and how it has highlighted our mortality and the need to change our social behaviour and interactions. You’d think it would be a crazy time to move to a new place too right!??? Well it was and... I did! With Northwood’s help, a new place was found for me and an effortless transition was made beginning with the viewing with Emma Norris, where COVID-19 precautionary measures were fully adhered to. Then on to the super efficient Rebecca “Danielle” Norris, all the details, contracts, paperwork, key exchange along with the necessary communication throughout were successfully and professionally completed all under government advised, COVID precautionary procedures. Finally... to the signing of contracts etc, via DocuSign with Jill Brocklebank... I couldn’t have asked for a better, reliable, more efficient and professional service! I cannot recommend and praise Northwood enough, Thank you all for believing in me!... Read more

The worst by far! I have had rented from three different agencies in Peterborough and Northwood Peterborough are the worst by far! Walk away from them as they are providing poor service and charge for everything. They offer only 6 months contracts for tenants and demand £50 for each renewal. Each time you wish to renew you have to visit agency to pay £50 charge. They are not even willing to send contract through the post with pre-paid envelope (so what is the £50 being paid for as it is described as 'admin fee'?). Forget about having your deposit back as they will go beyond and make things up just to collect some money of you. They operate a scheme where, if property is not rented, they pay the rent to the landlords, therefore they do whatever they can to exploit tenants, grab as much money as they can, so they can have money towards landlords, if stuff goes wrong. They will put the rent up themselves (without asking landlords) just to make more money and since they operate on 6 months contract, they will try to do it every 6 months. And don't think that as a landlord you will have a steady income. The contractor that is being used by agency to fix any problems is overpriced and forces multiple call outs and visits which ramps up the cost of simple fix. That cots is then passed on landlord. If you thinking of renting with Northwood Peterborough - don't do it otherwise you will regret it, just walk away. There are other agents in Peterborough that are fairer - Tortoise, Connells etc. Nortwhood is draining money from both landlord and tenant ends and they provide poor service. Just read some other comments and opinion. I should have done that before started with them...... Read more

Rented a three bedroom property from this agency, well to sum it up the whole experience was a nightmare from start to end. Here's the story in brief: Start of problems. Day 1: collect keys from office! Yes that's right they don't use industry recognised procedure and do the handover at the property. So off I go with the keys. To my horror when I went into the property, I found one of the bedroom carpets saturated with urine, and the ammonia smell was really overpowering. Rang Northwood straight away. Was told they would call back. This never happened. After a week of continuous phone calls trying to get them to come out we emailed them. 2 weeks later after several emails of complaints (so 3 weeks in and a bedroom we could not use) we get an email of a timelime of events of when we apparently contacted them, if that wasn't bad enough the accusation from Northwood that they concluded the event happened sometime after we got the keys and we had urinated on the carpet, so was going to be charged for a new carpet. Our response was to send copies of our phone bills showing calls to and from Northwood (very few) and copies of texts between myself and partner. We moved in at the end of October 2018, the carpet eventually got replaced in the December! Second problem: when we moved into the property we found the loft hatch was damaged and not very secure, within a few days this decided to fall down. Thankfully no one was walking underneath it at the time. This took several weeks to repair! Third problem, downstairs toilet door began to come off the hinge, as the wood on the door was spilt. We had pointed this out at the 3 month inspection. Eventually door started to fall off. This was a safety issue as there was a toddler in the house! We was told just to keep the door shut and don't use the toilet. After numerous emails the door was eventually replaced, very reluctantly. Fourth issue: there was a lot of strong winds that had damaged the garden fence. This was reported to them, but still remained damaged when we moved out of the property at the end of May 2019. Fifth problem: prior to moving out we went into the garage and the garage door collapsed on us. This was reported and they wasn't as you have probably gathered by now fourth coming about fixing it. More than a week went by, and eventually it got to moving day. Sent them an email and said we needed this fixing urgently before then as it was a safety issue for the removal company. Response eventually said they will be out to fix it. This was the same day as we was moving out, so told them no. Garage door remained unfixed when we handed the keys back 2 weeks later. (property had been empty for 2 weeks.) Sixth problem: early on in the tenancy the downstairs toilet light bulb blew. When I went to change this I decided not to, this was because the light fitting was insecure on and not fitting correctly. It was loose and I wasn't about to have it fall and be charged for repair. So this was reported to them. This remained unrepaired when we ended the tenancy. Because of all the issues we had from the start we requested that we was present at their final check out. This we was told would not be possible as that's not how they work. They wanted the keys returning to the office. After airing my concerns about them inspecting the property without the presence of witnesses, they said we could be there but was only there to observe. That I agreed to, but we took along a independent witness, (someone from a government background). On inspection they tried very hard to withhold our deposit. But we did succeed in getting our full deposit back. My recommendation to anyone looking to rent with Northwood, do not have verbal communication with them after you take the property, make all your communication written, and keep it for future reference. Take a copy of any interim inspections. Take photo's/video's on the day you get the keys, and the day you leave. If you can tell them you want to witness the check out inspection, and take an independent witness.... Read more

Both Colin and Chris were superb and professional when handling the sale of our property. Colin promised us he would not stop until our property was sold and was certainly true to his word. Whilst our chain was not long, it was problematic which was not due to any fault of Northwood. Colin chased up any queries and not only updated us at every stage but also our buyer. Due to this we were able to buy the property we had our heart set on for which we will be forever grateful. Thank you Colin and Chris! Would highly recommend.... Read more

Be aware this agency charges an admin fee of £300 that you will not be able to recover any part of if things go wrong for you!! Having completed the application paperwork and paid the admin fee at 16.42 in the evening, I went home and was made aware of a critical illness of a family member which has meant I unable to proceed with the application. I called Nothwood, as soon the office opened the following morning, to explain the situation and asked about a refund or partial refund of the fee, I was told by Colin that he would look into this and come back to me. Having spent the last two days calling and waiting for call backs I have been told by Kayley that the money will not be refunded. Whilst I appreciate that they say at the point of application the fee is not refundable and ask you to sign a form to this effect, given the circumstances I thought there would be some sort of understanding/compassion shown but how wrong I am, the response I've been given is "the directors are not moving on this". Having paid the fee at 16.42 and the fact that they close at 17.30 they could not tell me what they had done in 48 minutes to justify keeping the whole £300 fee apart from saying that "it is company policy". I was told at the point of application by Rebecca that they accept multiple applications on properties then it is up to the landlord to choose the applicant but the fee would be refunded if you were unsuccessful so cannot understand what their justification in keeping the fee is, especially when they've done nothing for it. You need to ask yourself before signing up with this company is it an ethical company and are they the type of people you want to do business with??? All I can say is prospective tenants and landlords beware!!! There are several other more ethical agencies in the Peterborough area that will not take your money for doing nothing.... Read more
