Northwood Residential Lettings

Absolutly useless company as with previous reviewer arrnage rental viewing and acocmdation only to pull out two hours before hand utter conmen

A very stern word of warning to all those Unilocalers out there who may be considering using this company. Around three years ago my wife, flat mate and i were looking for some new accommodation. We stumbled across a place advertised by these folk and jumped at the chance for a viewing. In short the place was great and we decided to apply for it and to our joy were informed that the owner had chosen our application over others and would be happy to offer us a lease (not sure of this is the normal procedure, seemed odd to us but hey.)
So, with an entry date agreed upon, boxes packed, current lease terminated and a 6 months pregnant wife i jaunted off to Northern Ireland on business. As soon as i touched down in NI i received a call from these guys informing me that the landlord had pulled out of the lease… we were due to move in the next day.
Furious phone calls ensued which in the end left us frustrated and despite our very best intentions and planning, homeless. What did we receive as compensation… an apology, and the offer of a flat at the other end of the city, for 3 months… now i know its not possible to insert a whole building into your bottom, but i kindly asked them to attempt to do so.
Anyway. I know this event may well have been a terrible mistake and very much a one off but hey, its a pretty bad mistake to make! For this reason i would advise great caution if you do any dealings with these guys… and if truth be told, a 1 star rating is far more than they should have received over.
