It has now been two years since I have been trying to resolve a payment issue with Leaders Manchester but as it’s me who’s waiting for the payment they just can’t be bothered. They promise to resolve but then take zero action. After endless chasing I’ve come to terms with not getting paid but felt urged to write this review to make others aware.

Would not reccomend
I was shown around by Mechack who is referred to in all the 5 star reviews who was helpful. After signing you are then passed around everyone and are bombarded with emails. We had our move in date pushed back and our primary contact didn’t even realise all our checks hadn’t been done 24 hours prior to move in. Upon moving in we found debris including drugs, cigarettes, gas lighters, glass etc, soiled furniture, stained mattresses, leaks, faulty appliances. The place was a mess, the company were dismissive and claimed all checks had been completed but had to quickly change their attitude upon photographic evidence being provided. The second tenant was given no keys on arrival and still has none as of yet, for a 2 bed shared property. The letting agency claims no responsibility, as with everything else. AVOID

Lovely house
I recently viewed a property with Leaders, and I was thoroughly impressed. The house was exactly as described, and Mechack provided all the information I needed, answering my questions with ease. His friendly and approachable nature made the process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend.

Had an amazing view in
I had the pleasure of working with Mechack, an exceptional estate agent with Leaders, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, his professionalism, knowledge, and dedication made the entire process seamless and stress-free.
Mechack has an impressive understanding of the property market and took the time to thoroughly understand my needs, ensuring every property he suggested aligned perfectly with what I was looking for. He was incredibly responsive, always keeping me informed at every step, and went above and beyond to address any concerns I had.
What truly sets Mechack apart is his friendly demeanor and genuine care for his clients. He made me feel valued and supported throughout the entire journey. If you’re looking for an estate agent who is trustworthy, efficient, and client-focused, Mechack is the person to call. Leaders is lucky to have him on their team!

Don't care about their customers
This estate agency aren't interested in contacting you with issues you've raised as a Landlord, but as soon as you start looking round at new agencies they're quick to call you up! Even the head office down London called me!! Quite frankly, a company that couldn't care less, they just want your money. I'll be giving them notice and moving my property to a better agency.

Quality service and experience
Had a really great experience with Leaders last week when property hunting for my daughter. The young man that gave us our view was friendly, funny and very professional in conducting the house tour. Unfortunately the poperty was not right for us but we are already looking for the next viewing. Hopefully with Meshack again!

Not a single positive thing to say
I'm so furious with leaders. They do not care at all about their tenants. We reported issues with the property multiple times during our tenancy, none of which were acknowledged or attended to. Towards the end of our tenancy we lived without a fridge for 2 months because they simply didn't care. It has now been almost 3 months since we left that property and I have just had to submit a dispute with the Tenancy Deposit Scheme to have our deposit returned even though it had been cleared. I tried contacting them multiple times to no avail.
It is clearly to me what is going on here -- all they care about is profit, their staff are overstretched, they don't care about the client's experience. They just want to make money.
Careless, inhuman, arrogant. Not a single positive thing to say.

Grace was really helpful and incredibly responsive in helping me source a flat which I am very happy with! I also had a few questions during the referencing stage and responsiveness from those at Leaders was good. So far, no issues and happy to have been assisted by Grace!

Joshua Faller is a brilliant property manager. He is always quick to respond and keeps me updated. He sorted out a council tax issue when my property was empty for a few days between tenants.
He also is great with contractors and getting me invoices when I need them.
