Have to say I'm not a fan of this firm. We rented a flat for 7 years through them, never missed s payment and left the place in a far better state than we found it (left some lovely furniture as well for the Landlord) They still managed to hold back some deposit for 'nothing' reasons. Wish I had pointed out the amount of times they entered the flat without prior agreement at that point as that caused far more upset and cost than the fact that there was a 4mm mark on a wall.... Beware this company for security deposit returns
Do not use them to let out your property. I had tenants placed in my house for two years who managed to wreck the place and destroy garden, furniture, carpets etc. Also had an attitude towards my long-term neighbours. All this from a local businessman who was supposed to be there with only his 2 kids had moved his girlfriend and family in without informing Martin & Co making a grand total of two adults, 4 children with another on the way and a dog who all werent supposed to be there according to lease on a 3 bed property. When asked afterwards if I could see the landlord references taken at time of letting I was told there were none. Pretty shabby pre checks and then Martin & Co went on to house same family into another poor persons property despite the trouble. Two stars given only as they managed to sell my property efficiently as requested.
I am really sorry if you have had a negative experience in dealing with our company. Currently i cannot find your details on our system please provide further details and we will investigate further. Thanks
Several months after moving out of a rental property through Martin & Co we were contacted by a debt collection agency, apparently the landlord had not paid any bills after we left and the utilities company thought we were responsible. Several more months later Martin & Co have still refused to provide us with a check out report or even a statement advising when we moved out, both simple documents that would have resolved the issue quickly. DO NOT use this company if you don't want to be held liable for bills long after you have moved out.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

I'm not sure what this company is like on the selling end, but as a prospective house buyer they are appalling. Generally one can obtain a home report instantly or within a very short time of requesting one. This company took 4 days to reply with 'you will be included in the next stage if you email ..', and finally sent a home report a week after initial request! It took about 10 phone calls attempts within the space of a week to get a call picked up, and the sale person responsible for house in question would not engage in a phone conversation about the property. We were ready to make an offer even without viewing -- given that is proving such a feat - but this unprofessional attitude would make our first home buying a dreadful experience! There are plenty other more reliable agencies in Stirling.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
