Tenancy review for Great Northern Road Derby in Woodside, Aberdeen rented from Wendy Garrett

Landlord rating: 1

Worst landlord ever, repairs took at least two weeks to complete and I went a month without an oven due to it being second hand and not serviced. repairs were done by her husband and not to a good standard. the gas and electric were not serviced either and is supposed to be done every year or two. She also increased my rent 3 times in the space of 9 months and above the 3% cap set by the government, and when I said I could not pay this she said she will have to sell and could not afford. However, she would happily go on 4 holidays abroad in a year, also landlords do have insurance for this kind of situation as well and the government was offering help for any landlord in this situation. she would also speak to neighbours about private and confidential stuff involving me and other tenants.

Property rating: 2

This property is not worth it at all and I don't recommend anyone moving in. she fitted the kitchen by herself and this is obvious. cupboards are not stable and shelves would often fall. the bathroom was shocking bad and the cupboard inside the bathroom was prone to mould. she also used the wrong paint in the bathroom and not bathroom paint. The whole property in itself is not maintained and that goes for the buildings communal areas.

Area rating: 4

The area is somewhat nice but should not reflect in the rent price. it's about a 30min walk from town.
