AVOID. I lived in a Martin and Co property for two years and had nothing but trouble. Almost lost our new property too because they are so completely incompetent. Phoning every day for weeks to chase things up with them and they only answer the phone if you select the option for inquiring about a new property - once they've got you in they really couldn't care less.

I see the only contact you have had with us is via email enquiries. A little unfair Nicole

Started off with county rentals who were great to work with and helped us a lot as we began renting a flat. 6 months down the line they were bought over by Martin and co just as we were leaving the flat and we have had nothing but problems. We left a few things lying such as air fresheners, a lighter and hair bobbles. Things that we just missed whilst moving out. Now we are getting charged £105 for forgetting to pick these things up (which would take less than 5 mins). I have read a lot of reviews and people are saying the same. Martin and co just want the money and have been rude over email. Definitely think everyone dealing with these horrible people to do it over email to have proof as they will worm their way out of any situation such as taking £105 for a silly mistake of leaving a few things lying around.

Thank you for your review Mr Rasool. We are sorry to hear that you bad experience and we would like to hear more of your feedback. If you’d like to discuss your concerns, please feel free to contact our customer service at dept on 01786 448812 or email me at i.ahmed@martinco.com. Our team is here to help. Many thanks, Mr I Ahmed, Managing Director, Martin & Co Stirling. At the start of your tenancy we would have made you aware that we register all deposits with Safe Deposits Scotland, who offer a very professional and impartial adjudication service in all cases where there is a dispute between the landlord and tenant as regards the allocation of the deposit.

Appalling service for tenants which has caused considerable stress to family members. Under no circumstances would I recommend this company. One to avoid.

Most of the reviews here coming from the landlords and staff of the company. They give five stars to themselves! They will do everything to keep with your deposit, so you have to take many pictures before move-in. If you leave or forget to pick something up at the apartment during the check-out, they will evaluate if it is of interest to them. If yes, they do not charge a fee and will keep with them, if not, they will charge a fee to throw away. You have to make all communication by e-mail to register everything. You can't trust them. It is like a partnership between landlords and rent-agency to extract money from the tenants. They don't fix all the problems regarding insulation, so I had to buy an expensive heater to survive in the winter. They will charge a fee to clean the apartment even if you did that.
