I’m a landlord who has been letting properties through Magpie Letting Agents for many years, and having dealt with other agents in the area, I can confidently say they are the stand-out agent by a country mile.
What sets them apart is their consistently high level of service. They have a solid team, meaning there’s always someone available to deal with queries promptly. Paperwork is handled efficiently and correctly — which is crucial given the ever-changing regulations landlords have to navigate.
Rent payments are made promptly, with same-day statements and any contractor invoices sent through without delay. Regular property inspections are carried out with clear, honest feedback on both the positives and any areas for improvement, along with helpful advice. While we may occasionally see things differently, there’s never been a dispute — everything is handled professionally, fairly, and with landlords' and tenants' best interests in mind.
Even contractors I’ve worked with often comment on Magpie’s efficiency, excellent paperwork, and prompt follow-ups.
Vikkii, who heads up the team, knows the business inside out. She’s straight-talking, fair, and deals with both landlords and tenants without any nonsense — exactly what you want in a letting agent.
