This letting agents is by far the worst I have ever encountered since I started renting in Brighton and Hove 8 years ago. I urge you to keep away so you are not scammed by this incompetent and uncaring company. They let us a property, pushing for us to move in immediately taking every penny of our hard earned money. When we got to the property it was not ready for rental, it was filthy, covered in rubbish and the plumbing did not work. When we returned to the letting agents they told us that it was nothing to do with them now and we would have to contact the landlord. They gave us only an email address for the landlord who lives in India and does not respond to our emails, Sawyer and Co insist that it is not their problem. A year later, Sawyer and Co notified us to leave the property within 2 months as the landlord was moving back in. We ended our tenancy a month after their notice and heard nothing back from the landlord or Sawyer and Co. We have been unable to claim back our deposit as we still do not have any working contact details for the landlord and Sawyer and Co still insist that it is not their problem, despite the Deposit Protection Scheme telling us that Sawyer and Co themselves are holding the deposit money. We are now having to undergo a formal deposit despute which is both time consuming and mind numbing. Dealing with this with a 5 month old baby in tow is an absolute nightmare, not to mention being one and a half grand out of pocket. Sawyer and Co will take your money but not respond to any calls or emails. Even when I formally wrote to make an official complaint to the manager, I was still met with silence. Legally a formal complaint requires a 48 hour response. Five days later after still no response I had to come into the office myself to have any kind of response. Their excuse for not responding to anything was that they were "too busy". WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT USE THESE PEOPLE!
