I was a tenant with Property Bureau for four years and I couldn't have asked for a better agent. They were swift to reply, professional and well organised.

With this state agent still, but I don't think they fight in favour of their tenants with Landlords, Just loads of stress. I could say double face Facing loads of stress and issues with landlord, but nothing being settled or sorted by Estate Agent We moved to this property last August, my daughter was 14, this November she will be 16. Landlady send us notice for breach of contract. Subletting her property with another tenant.
She also asking proof of my daughter's age Property Bureau got nothing to say to her as our Estate agent shame. Before doing the Tenancy agreement we filled all the paper works and procedures We have been left without acwashing machine since last March. Its in the inventory list. We are both front liners. Land lady says she provided as Courtesy. List be too long. Sorry just spoke the truth

This estate agency has no work ethics. They did false advertising of properties online during covid. They showed me a video of the flat I rented where the state of the bathroom wall was conveniently left out. I was not given the opportunity to have a viewing of the flat due to covid restrictions. I was only informed of an issue with the bathroom wall after I had already signed the tenancy agreement.
They took two months to bring the contractors to repair the bathroom wall which had a massive leak. There was mould all over the wall and a terrible damp smell. This was partially hidden behind a wet wall. After the repairs started the bathroom was basically a construction site with no sink and no warm water. They still stated: "our property is not considered to be uninhabitable". They did not want to provide an alternative accommodation during the repair despite me paying 600 rent for 1 bedroom flat. The way how they treat tenants is a total disgrace. It has been a very distressing experience. If you are reading this please believe me when I say these people are not trustworthy.

I am a tenant in a property that is let and managed by Property Bureau. I have not been pleased with the service provided because: 1. My neighbour reported water leaking into their flat below. As this was a fairly small but constant amount of water Property bureau did not fix this for over a year. This caused damage to my neighbours flat. 2. They pressurised me to allow painters and decorators into the house so that the house could be prepared for sale.
This was very stressful and resulted in me having to seek legal advice. (I was advised that I do not have to let the painters in.) My house buy had been delayed by a month and they used the fact that I wanted to stay on another month as leverage. It has all been very unpleasant and affected my sleep.

My experience with this Property Agency is greatly satisfactory. I have been renting with them for 4 years and I have never had any problem whatsoever. They are quick, efficient and effective when it comes to sort out any issue regarding the property. At a personal level, I would like to remark their kindness and willingness to help, which I definitively appreciate even more! I highly recommend it.
