"Leydon Lettings are probably the best student letting agency in Canterbury to go with."
HC 08/12/2011... I think your business must probably be the most trustworthy and reassuring student lettings I can find in Kent, ... you provide high quality furnishings and extras that really make the difference when you're a student, and that you actually really care about your tenants and their living standards, unlike most around here, so I thought of you first!
G.O. 9 October 2008 Resident for academic year 2006-2008''You are the most generous landlord I have come across... the house is superior to any others we have seen... I am really impressed with the standard... I wish someone had told us about you before now, my older daughter could have been in one of your houses instead."
H.S. 29 August 2008 Parent.''Thanks for such a lovely house!"
L.F. 25 July 2008 Resident for academic year 2007-2008"My housemates and I moved into 43 Godden Road in our second year at University... it soon became like a second home to me. Leydon lettings did everything they could to make us feel comfortable and happy, and they did everything possible to tend to our needs; whether the vacuum cleaner broke or a light bulb went, Robert was always quick to help and rectify the problem. They have been very patient and good to us."

In addition, in comparison to other letting companies It would appear on average their rent is £80 a week without bills included, compared to the £96 you offered me which includes all utility bills (heating, water, electricity), plus a TV licence and hard-wire internet and orthopaedic double sized mattresses, the latter being very important to me due to health reasons.

EmmaWhat do landlords say:
"Recommendation for Leydon Lettings"
"I’d like to highly recommend Leydon Lettings as a trustworthy and professional letting agent. I have a Victorian terraced house in Wincheap which I have let to tenants for the past 7 years whilst I’ve been working overseas...
I called upon Bob Leydon from Leydon Lettings for help. He was most willing to assist me, and promptly arranged a full house inspection and review. He produced a professional and extensive document which reported a thorough room by room review, including the exterior, of his recommendations of what could be done to upgrade my property.
The report brought to my attention some safety aspects that
needed urgent work, plus some suggestions of how to present my house in a way that will attract tenants and draw a higher rental income at a reasonable personal cost.
His help has been invaluable in pointing me in the right direction to improve my house and making it a popular rental property. I would
be most willing to highly recommend Leydon lettings."
J.P. Landlady Thu 12/04/2012 09:11"... also a big thank you for the new mattress, its
so comfy, and well done to the man who carried them in the rain! Kind regards,
