Currently still in tenancy with one of their properties but I'd say the rating isn't going to change.
Winter months came about and the alley which leads to the door to my house was pitch black from around 5pm onwards, after emailing one of the staff they had an electrician come out the next day to remove the old broken lights and replace them with brand new LED ones that make the alley as bright as the sun.
In addition whenever we were handling viewings, Donna one of the agents went out of her way to get keys for a house we were booked to view a few days later. The fact that this agency is willing

We rented a family property with Douglas Huston in Belfast for more than two years with the worst possible ending. Our landlord, who works in Douglas Huston and is related to the owner of the agency, decided to reoccupy the house due to a change in his personal circumstances. I could use many negative adjectives to describe the process of our eviction (merciless, rude, greedy), but overall this was a very traumatic event for a family of four a week before leaving for summer holidays. I would advise to avoid Douglas Huston at all costs.

I was about to sign the lease with them only to be told that having a Scottish guarantor is not good enough, it is either a double deposit or NI guarantor. The problem was not in the fact that it was a double deposit, but the fact that I was given an ultimatum first - well, we can't proceed with the lease then. No other options were offered to me and that was the major problem, it was take it or leave it - and that's the attitude they had even before getting my business. - the agent could have said 'let me check if we can find a solution, but it blank - WELL, we can't proceed with the lease then

I viewed a unit with them recently at £12k per annum. Told them the intended use and it jumped to £17400 in 24 hours. Left a bad taste in my mouth. I never heard any unit for different price for a different use. Would not recommend under any circumstance. Only can be described as gangsters!

Great agents. I have used a few in Belfast, and Douglas Huston by far has been the best. When things were broken, they fixed it straight away. They only show quality houses and flats. Staff and friendly and always happy to help. I would recommend using them, as not many agents in Belfast are good. Also, I received my deposit in full, which I know is rare with agents!!
Thanks Douglas Huston staff for making my year renting with you great!

Douglas Houston has exceeded my standards. They were very prompt in solving problems while renting the property and after moving out. They were helpful throughout and gave great advice for first renters. I would recommend to anyone.

Great estate agents to work with. They sort problems out with no hassle and very quickly. Never once have we felt ripped off or like we couldn't approach the agents with questions. I would endeavor to deal with Douglas Huston for all my letting and buying needs in the future.

We used Douglas Huston for our last three lettings and they have been extremely good at identifying the market rent and putting together a bespoke advertising campaign to get our properties let. Professional photography and floor plans have been a great benefit I have no hesitation in highly recommending and will be using again in the future. Many thanks to the whole team.

A huge thank you to the Team at Douglas Huston for another pain and hassle free experience. After being our letting agent for several years and always finding us the best tenants for our rental property, we have recently engaged them to sell our own house. The process couldn't have been easier. A very realistic valuation unlike some agents had recommended, leaves me very confident that we will have a quick sale. Thanks again.
