General Feedback
The reviews about Harringtons property management services are mixed, with some customers having extremely negative experiences while others have been very satisfied.
Negative Experience
Unhygienic Properties and Poor Staff Attitude
Some customers have reported that the properties they rented were unhygienic, with dirty walls, broken glass, and mould. The staff were also unhelpful and rude, failing to address the issues promptly. In one case, a customer tried to get out of their contract due to the numerous problems, but the agents were unwilling to compromise.
Bullying Tenants
One customer reported that the staff bullied them, and the flat was even dirtier on the second tenancy. The customer felt that the staff were cold and unhelpful, and the company did not take responsibility for the communal bin area.
Positive Experience
Excellent Service and Friendly Staff
On the other hand, many customers have praised the excellent service and friendly staff at Harringtons. The staff were quick to respond to issues, and the company went above and beyond to help customers, even storing possessions for free during the pandemic. The agents were professional, friendly, and responsive to both landlords and tenants.
