Review a flat you rented

It takes about 2 minutes. Write in any language: we translate it into English.

Your landlord won’t see who wrote it

  • Your name, email and document are never shown on the site, and never given to landlords or agents. Only our moderators see them.
  • Your review appears as “✓ Verified tenant”. When you lived there is never shown, so it’s harder to tell who wrote it.
  • Landlords must never pressure tenants about reviews. If one does, tell us.
  • People who know you might still recognise you from details in your review, so leave out anything that would give you away.

Rent and bills

The first question every renter asks: what does it really cost? Energy for a typical home is £1,723 a year under the current price cap, but a cold flat can cost far more, so your real bills help a lot. Rent is only ever shown as a range.

Were bills included in the rent? optional

Damp, heating, noise and more

The things you only find out after moving in. Damp affects 1 in 10 privately rented homes in England (English Housing Survey 2024), so your answer really matters.

For the stars: 1 = very poor, 5 = excellent.

Condition optional
Heating & hot water optional
Building & common areas optional
Area optional
Repairs & landlord response optional
Damp or mould optional
Noise optional

Photos

Show the home as it really is, not as in the advert. We remove location details from your photos before they’re shown.

Only photos you took yourself in this home: the rooms, the building, the view, or problems like damp or damage. No people, and nothing personal like names, letters or number plates. Photos from adverts or other websites aren’t accepted. We check every photo before it’s shown.

The good and the bad

Tick what applies. It takes seconds and makes your review quick to scan.

What was good? tick all that apply
Any problems?

Floor and bedrooms

So people compare like with like: a top-floor studio and a ground-floor 3-bed are very different homes.

Who did you rent from? Build-to-rent: one company owns and runs the whole building.

A title

One line that sums it up, shown above your review. If you leave it empty, we use the start of your review.

3Proof you lived there

You’ll need a tenancy agreement or a proof of address for the flat: a council tax bill, a utility bill or a bank statement.

Reviews you can trust

  • Every tenant proved they lived there, with a tenancy agreement or proof of address that only our moderators see.
  • No personal names: reviews are about the flat and the building, not people.
  • Landlords and agents can reply in public. Nobody can pay to hide or remove a review.
