Meeks Real Estate - Cardiff

Rented from them for 3 years. No condition report was done prior to moving in. Our bond wasn’t sent to Bonds as it should have been and was used towards rent without notifying us. I wasn’t given the option to pay rent instead of using our bond. Was told if the place was clean I would get my $2000 bond back. Place was left sparkling after paying $1850 to clean (mostly because of the mould everywhere from a leak in the roof it took them 2.5 years to fix) , they said it looked great. I was told my bond had been sent back, when it didn’t arrive I was told I hadn’t paid a bond. I sent a receipt for the bond back to them and was told it had been used for rent. This was done without consulting me and without telling me rent was due. It had never been lodged with Rental Bonds as it should have been. Now just before Christmas I’m left 2k out of pocket because of their lies and inability to keep to a contract. During the stay the roof leaked for 2.5 years causing black mould which we were left to pay to remove. Deck post rotted through, this took 1.5 years to fix despite it being a safety risk . Fence falling down took 2.5 years to fix.. Smoke alarms weren’t tested to the standard, I notified them of this which I was told they would rectify, next time they tested smoke alarms they were still not tested to the standard. I was made to pay insurance on the house for 1.5 years, only to be told later I didn’t t need to be paying this. That’s on the renters side. On the owner side they didn’t do rental inspections for 1.5 years, didn’t do a condition report and take ages to get anything fixed leaving your property to go to ruin. In short form… Completely inept, didn’t stick to contract. Told me I’d get my bond back when they’d spent it even after telling me they’d sent it back. Don’t rent from them or lease out through them, they don’t follow contracts or codes of practice.
