Poor Management and Customer Service
The majority of reviewers have expressed disappointment and frustration with Scanlans Property Management, citing poor management and customer service as the main reasons.
Lack of Concern for Residents' Needs
Several reviewers have noted that the company seems to prioritize profits over the needs and concerns of residents. For example, one reviewer was told that even if pets are initially allowed, consent can be withdrawn at any point without explanation. Another reviewer mentioned that the company would not take action against antisocial behavior, despite being asked to do so.
Poor Maintenance and Repairs
Many reviewers have complained about the company's lack of attention to maintenance and repairs. Issues such as leaky roofs, broken lifts, and unemptied bins have been left unresolved, causing inconvenience and distress to residents.
Unhelpful and Rude Staff
Several reviewers have reported being treated rudely or unhelpfully by Scanlans' staff. One reviewer was told to "complain to the council" when they reported antisocial behavior, while another was dismissively told that a broken lift was unable to be fixed quickly due to a lack of parts.
Rare Positive Experiences
In contrast, two reviewers have reported positive experiences with Scanlans, praising individual staff members for their helpfulness and efficiency.
