My child was a tennant through your agency, I was guarantor.
The students had a large amount of their deposit withheld, for cleaning fees, even after the inspection said a light dusting was only required.
This review is no different to the reviews others have left.
This company is corrupt.
My child rented a property whilst at uni, we cleaned the property, purchased new mop / bucket cleaning supplies etc. The house was spotless. When the letting agent checked the property they said it was cleaned to a high standard and maybe a light dust needed.
I took before and after photos, the property was disgusting when my child moved in.
After the students moved out, Townsend's withheld £200.00 of their deposit for 'cleaning fee'. Which is illegal under the 2019 Tenancy Act.
I requested their after photos, proving their evidence of the standard of cleaning needed, which they didn't have and said new tenants were in the property.
The property is a tiny 2 bedroom house, with mould. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
I hope other students who rent from you are aware how you behave.
And, as others who have left reviews, this seems normal practice with this company.
We started proceedings with solicitors, the costs involved are very high, unfortunately.... Read more

My partner and I were looking for a long term rental and were really struggling to find a place that allowed dogs. Archie was such a great help in our search and provided lots of useful suggestions and information. Pretty much every other estate agent in the area either dismissed us or was straight-up rude when we asked. Our experience with Townsend was a breath of fresh air.... Read more

I changed over to Townsends as a landlord a few months ago and a lot has had to be dealt with during the short time I have been with them so I have got to know them well. They are extremely professional and every problem was dealt with swiftly and efficiently and they took a lot of responsibility off me with sound advice. I am so very glad that I have my properties in such safe hands now.... Read more

Very professional and friendly throughout the whole process. Were there to answer any questions we had whilst moving and couldn't do enough to help. They provide welcome packs at the end of your move which is a nice touch. Would definitely recommend and use again if the need arises.... Read more

My friends and I rented a student property from Townsend for the academic year 2021/22. We have been very disappointed with their treatment of us. Reported issues take weeks/months to be fixed, which would be understandable is they had a system that reflected problems in priority order but instead fix minor aesthetic issues while we were left with a broken washing machine for 4 weeks, a broken shower for 9 weeks and numerous other issues with key appliances. It was only after multiple phone calls and emails from multiple house members that our issues were logged let alone fixed. At the beginning of our tenancy we reported faults with the house from the previous tenants and we were told our oven was broken, a few days later someone came to clean the oven and we told the cleaner that it was broken so not to clean it. Townsend then sent the cleaning lady back after telling her that we had lied about the oven and that they had no idea why we thought it was broken. The staff don’t seem to note down problems or communicate with each other and then when we called again to follow up, they claim not to know anything about it. Perhaps this is genuine incompetence or more likely just unorganised staff who couldn’t care less. They are always very polite but this is no constellation as they manage to blame contractors or landlords for every issue that is brought up. There is no accountability for any problem. Other students have had similar issues to us but it seems to be justified each time by saying that this is simply the student experience. If this is the student experience we should be paying student discounted prices rather than £2500 a month. Another ongoing issue that we have faced with Townsend is them giving house keys to contractors without first telling us. On multiple occasions we have woken up to unknown men in our house and panicked before them telling us who they were and why they were in our kitchen. This was reported to Townsend who apologised and said it wouldn’t happen again. Despite our complaints on multiple occasions, strangers still let themselves in throughout the year. We also reported mould multiple times and were told to just clean it off the wall. Students are treated very poorly and aren’t taken seriously simply because we are students. Would not recommend this service to anyone hoping for a relaxed and comfortable tenancy.... Read more

I couldn’t fault Townsends on their knowledge, professionalism and care in making sure we got the right tenant for the small annex to our house. It has been a pleasure to deal with them, and while I look forward to using Townsends in the future I hope it won’t be for some time.... Read more

We recently found a new flat to rent through Townsends. Will showed us around a number of properties and then organised the contract with the place that we were lucky enough to get. He was friendly, approachable and really helpful at all times, which was very re-assuring given the stressful nature of the housing market recently! Thanks Will!

I've always thought of a one-bedroomed flat as a flat with one bedroom. Apparent a one bedroomed flat is actually a flat with a living area which has a bed in it. Still charging as though it is a one-bedroomed flat and not a studio flat though.... Read more
