Property Management and Letting Services
Macleod & MacCallum's reputation for property management and letting services is mixed. While some reviewers have reported positive experiences, others have been left disappointed. The agency's responsiveness to maintenance requests is generally positive, with most issues being addressed promptly. However, there have been instances where ongoing issues were not fully resolved, such as the case of black mould appearance in one reviewer's rental property.
On the other hand, Macleod & MacCallum's handling of data protection and GDPR is also a concern. One reviewer reported receiving personal emails meant for other parties, including financial information, which raises questions about the agency's data handling practices.
Conveyancing Services
In contrast, the agency's conveyancing services receive overwhelmingly positive reviews. Reviewers praise the professionalism and approachability of staff, including Karen, Gemma, and Lindsay. The agency's communication and explanation of processes are also highly commended.
Some reviewers have used Macleod & MacCallum for multiple transactions, returning to the agency due to their excellent service. The agency's staff are described as knowledgeable, efficient, and supportive, making what can be a stressful process much easier to navigate.
Sale and Purchase of Property
Macleod & MacCallum's handling of the sale and purchase of property also receives mixed reviews. While some reviewers report smooth and efficient transactions, others have encountered issues, such as hidden defects and ongoing problems with the property.
One reviewer was left with the burden of costly repairs due to historic leakage issues and ongoing problems, which were not disclosed by the seller. This has led to a difficult and time-consuming process, which may have been avoided with more transparency and diligence.
Overall
It is clear that Macleod & MacCallum's reputation is affected by both positive and negative experiences. While some reviewers have reported excellent service and professionalism, others have encountered issues with property management, data protection, and the sale and purchase of property.
