Where do I start with this cowboy company?
Rip off merchants to tenants and Landlords.
Philip James are you still charging landlord a mark up on work done by contractors (20% on top of what is charged) as well as charging landlords a monthly fee for managing the property.
You see, I found this out as I needed a copy of an invoice for a tax return and contacted the contractor they use directly. They gave me the original invoice - 20% cheaper. When questioned I was told ‘it’s what philip james do’
So landlords, I would question every single invoice you have ever received from these cretins.
Tenants- you think you had it bad with the renewal fees (scandal!) and your deposits. Landlords are being ripped off to the tune of hundred and thousands of pounds.
Do yourself a favour and stay well away. If you have property with them, contact your contractors and examine every invoice. That Gas safety check, emergency plumber, PAT test- you are paying over the odds
