Absolute Living

By far the worst estate agents I have ever dealt with - absolute *crooks. AVOID at all costs. Ended up staying in the rented property for only two months due to breach upon breach of contract from their part. The main breach included building works we weren't told about (RIGHT outside my bedroom window), no internet at times due to said building works, eventually leading to receiving an email that my bedroom window was going to be knocked out due to these building works with me LIVING in it! And so was forced out of the property, leading to early exit fees from bills and a frantic dash to get out (we were told with two weeks to go). Shakil and Harvey were unresponsive and not helpful....except of course when they were flogging the property to us at the beginning. The communication between their team is appalling (unless they just like to blame each other) and for those two months we were in that flat, we encompassed issue after issue and stress after stress. Not to mention the noise when we were promised a quiet space to work from home. Finally, when I mentioned all of this to my brother and mentioned a guy called 'Shakil', hilariously my brother had dealt with him in the past and agreed he was a crook. Honestly, save yourself a mountain of stress and do not do business with Absolute Living.

Absolute joke

I have been renting a flat from the Absolute Living for a year now. From the first time of arranging a viewing, throughout the referencing and the tenancy time I've had an absolute amazing experience. The agency is very professional and helpful in terms of communication or sending a mechanic if needed. Everything is resolved and communicated quick. I have been living and renting in the UK for the past 6 years and I have not had a better experience. Big thank you to Shakil who was here since the beginning and made our tenancy an amazing experience.

Positive: Professionalism

As neighbours of one of their properties we have to live daily with their obscenely low maintenance standards. One thing is absolute for sure and it's their lack of responsibility and inaction on even the most basic neighbouring issues, such as pruning a tree or keeping common areas clean.
