Landlord rating
This landlord has very little respect for his tenants and purely sees them as a form of income rather than real human beings.
First time I interacted him was when he turned up unannounced and started putting the keys in door (we weren’t given the correct number of keys when we moved in and needed one cutting so he apparently was checked which one needed cutting but did not give the 24 hours notice that he was coming). Despite me being clearly shaken and frustrated at what he had done he did not apologise.
I have reported multiple maintance issues (lock on back door broken, mould, leak above door, mouse infestation) and he hasn’t responded to any of the issues.
Our flat (and the other flats in the building) were advertised as having off-road parking, yet the landlord and his staff (he also owns the solicitors next door to our flat) frequently use these spaces themselves when they have been advertised as being for the tenants.
The flat isn’t obvious has very clearly been converted into a domestic flat from a shop in a very cheap and poorly constructed fashion as there are too many issues to mention.
Overall, very little positive to say about this landlord and would avoid at all costs.

Letting Agent rating
The flat was filthy when we moved in and had to fight for a cleaner to come ASAP to clean it. They did said a cleaner but didn’t do a professional clean at all but rather just did a quick hoover round and picks up the bits of litter on the floor.
You will need to keep chasing them if you want anything done and they won’t give you updates after you ask them to update the landlord on maintenance issues.

29 Station Road, Kiveton Park, Sheffield
4 ★★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆
Property rating
The kitchen and bathroom have been installed very poorly when the property was converted into a flat from being a commercial building. The cabinets and kitchen sides are all wonky and the door to the bathroom doesn’t close properly. The carpets are all stained and the wallpaper in the front room is peeling off. There’s a great deal of mould in the bedroom and around the kitchen window. There’s a hole over the back door which lets water in. There are holes behind the kitchen cabinets which we believe is where the mice are coming in from.

Area rating
Lovely area, lots of green space near by and very close to the train station which makes it easy to get around.
