The absolute worst company...could do the initial inventory walk round together they made it separate... moved in with issues reported in the inventory and ourselves and nothing has been done, leaks everywhere, mould in multiple rooms, reporting app not working and after at least 15 emails and more calls with unfulfilled callback promises the problems persist... 5 months of mould and no cares for the law.. 3 times promised workmen which never turn up and zero communications... avoid at all costs to this corrupt company.. all that rent money and barely a livable home.

I received immediate help in a very crisis situation

Extremely poor communication and mishandling of holding deposit
I had a very stressful and disappointing experience with this letting process.
From the outset, I was completely transparent about my income and personal circumstances. Despite this, my application was progressed for over two weeks while I was repeatedly told it was “being reviewed,” only to later be informed that my income structure would not be accepted under the landlord’s criteria. During this time I was given inconsistent and contradictory information about the status of my application, including whether it was with the landlord, with referencing, or awaiting decisions that never materialised.
I asked multiple times for clear timeframes and decision deadlines due to the urgency of my situation, but these requests were not acted upon. Instead, the process continued without clarity, which prolonged uncertainty unnecessarily.
My holding deposit was taken on 9 January. The 15-day statutory deadline passed without a tenancy agreement being entered into and without any agreed extension. I later requested the deposit back, was told it would be returned within 5–7 working days, and that timeframe also passed without payment. Further emails stated the refund had been “requested from accounts,” but no confirmation of payment or proof of transaction was provided. As of today, I still do not have my holding deposit back.
Overall, the experience was characterised by poor communication, missed deadlines, shifting explanations, and a lack of accountability. This added significant stress to what was already an urgent housing situation.

Allison helped me with a tenancy issue and did a fantastic job—she resolved the problem in less than 24 hours!

Touchstone Resi especially for Zenith Close are honestly horrendous. They are so bad with responses - I would like to specifically mention Jessica Martin who is our property manager. Horrible responses to emails regarding tenancy replacements, not even an acknowledgement of emails. You would wonder if she was ever working! I have been trying for over a week to contact her via phone call and it just goes straight to voicemail. Please do avoid if you can for your own sanity. I can post numerous communications where it’s just been extremely tedious dealing with her even to the point a replacement tenant pulled out last minute because she was quite worried the service with the agent would be terrible.

Avoid this agency!!!! We are waiting from 5th January for them to fix our heating in middle of the winter with child in a house and no heating with only 2 radiators. Now is 26th of January and still no heating. Very bad experience with this agency. Next time i will not rent any more from them.

Constantly have to chase repairs, no one answers the phones, responses on the app or voicemails and emails are few and far between unless they are chasing rent. Taken a year to resolve a complaint.

Coco and Amee in the Credit Team have been extremely helpful and always respond to my requests very promptly — I really appreciate their support.

Look back at my last 2 reviews on 17 Nov 25 and 17 Oct 25. You said your team will keep in touch on here publicly. Please be informed that they have not and still ZERO repairs conducted. You should be ashamed! Oh and to add to that the 3 built in fire alarms in my house have all gone passed their expiry date and were on last years safety report. Still not changed...

I signed a tenancy agreement for a property managed by this company and paid the required rent and deposit.
However, due to multiple unresolved issues within the property, it was not fit for occupation, and I have never moved in.
These issues were reported with supporting photos and details. As the situation remained unresolved, I have formally requested to terminate the tenancy and for all paid amounts to be refunded.
Despite sending multiple emails, including one sent today, I have not received any response or acknowledgement.
I find the lack of communication very concerning, particularly given that the tenancy never commenced due to the condition of the property.
I am still awaiting a response and would appreciate the company contacting me urgently to resolve this matter.

Terrible company. They ask you to sign up for their service amazing Facilities management and help desk app. Send requests and they refuse to read or reply to them.
All the tenants & neighbours im speaking with despise this management company.
The property is cold, shit, and overpriced.
Run away as fast as possible

I was panicking when I called Daisy about my renting situation. She was calm and polite and reassured me she will look into how best she can help. She managed to help and get me through the process. She is amazing. I highly recommend her.

Where to start with my experience of this company?
Constant maintenance issues that never got addressed.
Poor administration management.
Communications are horrendous, late emails/no response. Never answer calls.
This company does not care at all!
Now I cant even get my deposit back after living in a property with faulty heating for over a year.
After having no water to clean the property with they are now billing me for cleaning when then said not to clean!
Utility charge was never disclosed so j spent months chasing the company who the providers were as they didn't know!... turns out it was them!..... I cant pay a bill unless I know who to pay it to!

This is a company that is very much quick to increase your rent but slow as anything that will cost them money such as essential repairs. They contract out absolutely everything to companies that are clearly the absolute cheapest with no knowledge and expertise. They are constantly cutting corners and cutting costs from their side with zero regard for paying tenants.
Please if you are considering moving to a Touchstone property don't, find somewhere else, it's absolutely not worth it.
EDIT: Just as an edit to this, they mention emailing the below address, this is not helpful at all, I did this, and they just forwarded the email to someone who's out of office, the complete lack of competence within Touchstone is astounding

The staff made it great. They were all hands on and efficient esp Tony.
