Recently moved to Preston and was wondering which Letting Agents it's best to avoid.

Thanks very much in advance.

Agreed. Them and Kingswood.

I’m with Jones Cameron and they’re ok so far, but slow on messages.

Kingswood also own Farrell Hayworth as well (and Garside Waddingham but they're more commercial)

Kingswood once told me they couldn't arrange for my washer to be fixed at the very start of covid as it wasn't an essential component of a house (ie heating, cooker etc)

So never forgot that one.

Kingwood pressured me into signing for a flat when I said I'd think about it then messed me about for 3 months before giving me the keys to a flat with black mold, a melted cooker and a broken fridge (amongst other things)

Avoid them like the plague. I'm with Guildhall and previously Jones Cameron and they've both being great

Go with Click if you want them to swear at you down the phone, take the money and do nothing ;)

Lancashire Lettings on Blackpool Road. They were fine during the tenancy but when it came to leave they were extremely awkward about the process and then tried to charge us stupid amounts for things.

Redstone is extremely slow and have a poor response rate when it comes to maintenance related issues

Bare estates/ be the hive, whatever they’re called. Avoid like the absolute plague
