Went to Dawson's when my partner and I were looking for somewhere to rent and personally I wouldn't recommend. I saw around 5-6 properties with them over two appointments. On the first appointment the estate agent showed up late and told me it was because he'd been buying his girlfriend vodka from Lidl. He mentioned he isn't allowed to do stuff like that in work hours but 'if no one sees' then it's fine. So not the most professional introduction. I also wasn't overly impressed with his ability to show me round a property - mostly he just unlocked the door and I would have to go in first (even with properties that were currently occupied and had people at home). We got to one flat and he quoted a monthly rent that was £100 cheaper than what it said online. I queried this but he insisted the online price was wrong. On this basis I booked a second viewing so my partner could come and see the place. He did give me a lift home as it was close by, but didn't want to pull over and I pretty much had to get out of a car that was still moving (albeit very slowly). On my second viewing I met a different agent at the flat that I was viewing with my partner. He gave the correct price (£100 a month more expensive) which essentially meant the viewing was a waste of time as the flat was not in condition where that rent was reasonable. We then went and saw 2 more flats, one of which was about £50 a month over our maximum budget. The agent suggested that we offer a lower monthly rate and that the owner would be open to us having a cat (not a deal breaker as we didn't have one at the time, but we were keen to get one). Later that day I visited the office and was told that this owner would never allow pets or drop their prices due to the quality of their properties (which in fairness were very nicely finished) and that 'everyone' knew that. At this point I felt fairly messed around and had had enough of the conflicting messages so went to Fresh instead (which I would recommend). Ultimately, it's not the worst customer service I've received, but I felt messed around and would add that when it comes to something as stressful as finding somewhere to live it's just not what you need.
