| Comment | God! factors! don't get me started on them, all of them are rip-off merchants. The monthly fee doesn't seem to cover anything, £50 to change a fucking light bulb, 20k quoted to cut the fucking grass, half-arse jobs done by cowboys.
They do fuck all but at the same time want money for everything. I development that I've lived in for 14 years (bought flat) has had about 5 factors over the years, each one as unless as the next. has cost a small fortune over the years and very little improvement done in the development.
However, after saying the above and my little rant, we have appointed a new factor at the start of the year, Homesbook - £65 p/m fee that covers everything, well, general maintenance (light blubs, cleaning etc), grass cutting, replacement of broken glass window (small stuff like that) they have done more in the last 5 months than the other factors have in the past 14 years.
Based on the first couple of months with homesbook, I would go with them, they actually have a good write-up online as well. |
