Staff are helpful and the properties are nice.
Prices just reflect the York average, not the letting agencies fault if things are expensive.

Do not trust anyone that works here, stay away. Inhospitable conditions and a constant month long fight to get any attention to serious faults.

Bins filled with maggots from pervious tenants causing a swarm of flies inside the house, broken internet, broken oven and rats in the garden are just some of the many issues we've had to report that have been completely ignored for multiple weeks. Criminally overpriced and borderline illegal service don't go near them.

I'm not one of their tenants, I'm a neighbour of one of their properties. The students are incredibly noisy, and last year the fire alarm went off for a week and we couldn't get hold of anyone to switch it off. It was torture. I've emailed many times recently and tried to call about the current students living next door who have no respect for their neighbours regardless of notes through the door to please ask them to be aware of the racket they are making. Sinclairs ignored my calls and emails. Basically, if you live next to one of their properties, be prepared to never be able to get hold of them, even when it's urgent.

Avoid do absolutley nothing to fix issues. Left with broken toilet and a serious safety issue for a female occupant. The mainteance manager (Debbie) stock excuse is they have lots of issues to deal with so tough. No apology or promise to sort. 1st issue was reported in August and still not fixed. Students are treated as 2nd class citizens despite the rental income on this house being in excess of 25k per year.
