I am sorry that there is not option for 0 star, because they deserve it.
Such a bad and painful experience with this team:
First of all, once i moved in , i didnt have invetory check together with agent (which is highly unfair) and got inventory check in after 4 weeks
As i was probably the first tenant in the flat (which was before most likely office which was turned in living places because of covid) some things were not working since beggining.
Thermostat for temperature control wasnt working and i got someone to check it after 1 month. Thankfully i had still my previous flat in use for 3

I've been a tenant for over 3 years at one of the apartments in Fitzrovia managed by RIB. It has been the best estate agency experience I've had so far due to their professionalism and prompt responses. The senior property manager, Rosy, is particularly excellent - she is super responsive, friendly and any maintenance issues are always dealt with swiftly. Highly recommended!

We recently had a great experience working with Matt at RIB to find our new rental property in Fitzrovia. He was super knowledgeable about the area and responsive to all our requests. Renting is usually stressful but he really put our mind at ease and made the whole process relatively painless. I would definitely recommend RIB to anyone looking to rent or buy in Central London.

Buying our new family home proved a challenge for us but having David Caldeira and his team made a hugely positive difference for us. He was professional, fair and pleasant throughout. David went beyond his remit in helping us navigate challenges on our purchase and was instrumental in helping us secure the flat we have been dreaming of.
We are grateful to him and his team at Robert Irving Burns. We have been extremely pleased and I highly recommend their excellent service.

I had the chance to work with Issy in my search. She was very professional along the whole process from the beginning until the signatures. Very responsive, she would even respond to messages after working hours which is in my experience very unusual and has been very much appreciated - she has been a great liaison on both parts and made sure everything happened in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend to work with Issy if you are looking for a property in central London.

A really good experience. A very professional team in manager of the properties. Especially thanks to Matt, super helpful and professional. He recommended properties according to my requirements and budget. Then, he arranged the viewing very patiently. After moved in, they double-check facilities, and response very efficient. Love my living place very much! Thanks for the team.

Really bad service after you signed the contract.
listed several things happened for other potential customers as a reference.
1. completely landlord-centered. only stand for the landlord side for everything, rather than a arbitration.
2. the only thing after you moved in they would bother to contact you or reply to you is that, they need to 'break in' to let next potential tenants taking a viewing in the last month of your contract.
3. The agent is 'unaware' that the deposit money was not put under the protection.
4. did not offer the formal contract in paper copy to the

Run away!
The worse case of outright sexism I've seen in years. Property Agent awful to deal with. Power trip. Told two women in two separate flats to wear earplugs and call the council in relation to excessive noise levels (from 4 twenty year olds crammed in a relatively small 2-bedroom flat in the building). Despite the council and police already being involved. Agent showed up siding with the landlord renting the flat. Not once siting the clear infractions of the lease of having so many people (2 of them students partying day and night). Unbelievable. Shocking. His opinions on

Robert Irving Burns is simply the worst company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. All we wanted to do was rent a flat for 1 year for university, but we were plagued with issues from the very beginning.
Firstly, the contract was not adhered to. They claimed if we had a guarantor, we would not need to pay upfront. We ended up having to pay upfront. There was drilling as soon as we moved in, which continued all year while we stayed there. The drilling was so loud that our furniture actually vibrated, and sleeping after work began was all but impossible. We could not concentrate well during
