SouthSide Property Management

I should have given it a zero star if there was that option, they completely don’t have the standard for a management company as they tried to fool people with low qualities properties and they also have terrible landlords as well, guys just try other management agencies…

I haven’t rented with these so this is a ‘viewing only’ review.
They seemed to have everything in order and at the time I couldn’t do daytime viewings so I requested an evening viewing. Luckily, they do these so we turned up punctually on the night. We hadn’t been informed there would be other people viewing the property with us and were surprised when two other couples turned up but didn’t mind too much. The agent made us wait outside to firstly wait on another couple, who never showed up and then to ring the buzzer for the flat in question a few times. In total we were waiting about 10 minutes which I thought was a bit much since viewings are usually around 10 minutes altogether! I wasn’t too annoyed as I figured if there was someone in there, an evening viewing is awfully inconvenient for them so a bit of warning is fine, but no one was answering the buzzer.
After we entered the building we made our way up the stairs to be greeted by a door that looked as if someone had tried to kick it in, and was successful. The lock looked like it had been pulled out. When we went in the electricity was out, this was March so at 7pm it’s already dark. It was also very clear that despite the agents assertions he didn’t want to disturb the tenants, no one had lived there in quite a while. Suddenly the discounted rent for the first 2 months was making sense…
We made our way around the flat in the dark while the agent pointed out the various positive aspects of the flat. It was an alright flat to be fair. When I rang the next day to ask a few more questions (would they fixing the door for example) I was asked to ring back in the afternoon. When I rang back they’d given the flat away. I wasn’t too heart broken but I did feel a bit fobbed off.
I then decided not to look at anymore flats from this agency. Total meh experience.
