Westcourt Management Services
(7 reviews)
It says a lot that it takes a public complaint to motivate this company into action. And yet what…read moreis that action? Instead of reaching out to find out what has gone wrong they choose instead to aggressively catch up with their marketing. Oh well at least it is finally a response. Having been a landlord for 8 years but also a tenant for many more - in Sweden, England, US and Ireland and having contracted out the management of my property to a household property management company in the UK I know what to expect from a landlord's and tenant's perspective. I am also a senior engineer - not that that is relevant?? It must be noted that this is the first time in 2 years that Colm has responded to an e-mail or voice message from either my partner or I. However we were lucky that the apartment was generally in working order so we rarely had to deal with Colm - others were not so lucky. Also, we happened to have made contact with the landlord prior to Colm and West Court Management taking over so she was able to step in when necessary. In response to your response: Washing Machine: Niall indeed was courteous - it was not his fault that messages did not get through to him - We actually had to plead to Colm for Niall's number in order to chase him up ourselves. There was another middle man Ian ( I think it's his name - they seem to have such a high turnover of staff it was head-spinning - Eugene, Ian, Mark, Morris, Pat ) who was to inspect the washing machine but it took him a week to come out - not because he was busy rather Colm hadn't informed him. Colm told us otherwise! While the part was to take 2 weeks to order - the cumulative unnecessary delays meant that we were without a washing machine for 6 weeks. References: I ask the question : was a tenant of 3 years really so bad as to experience the following - and if so why weren't they evicted. Also, why not be professional if you had genuine reason not to give a reference then say so. Instead the following occurred : My partner asked that Monday for a reference indicating that it was urgently needed for a property we were keen on. The Westcourt Management employee said they could not give the reference and that we needed to speak with Colm - he said he would pass on the urgency to Colm. The next day my partner WCM and spoke to Colm - he claimed he hadn't received the message and said that we needed to send a request to a specific e-mail address for admin requests. So he did and followed up Wednesday, spoke to the agent who admitted that he saw the e-mail but wouldn't respond because Colm needed to. This tennis came to an end on Thursday when flabbergasted we had reluctantly requested the now ex-landlady for a basic reference. Despite being busy herself and despite it not being her responsibility - she gave us a brilliant reference and apologized for the delay. Now I could go into details of one of their agents asking for the loan of money of us but I really think the guy had enough abuse working for Colm. This is just subjective but it is my opinion that Westcourt Management Services is a stretched company that has an ongoing problem with communications and basic workload management. I'd hoped that I might get a direct response, an apology and at least some explanation but instead it looks like they've been instructed to give some standard marketing response. If I could give a zero review I would given the aggressive response here. People wise up - these people who are fearful of loosing a contract or their job - given my experience dealing with his colleagues on the phone he has them on a short leash. Yelp filter realizes this and that is why most of the reviews have been auto-filtered out. That is all.
I used Westcourt to rent my first apartment in Temple Bar. I lived there for just under 2 years and…read morehad a perfectly good experience. I didn't have that much dealing with them, which worked out well for both of us but I couldn't find any reason to complain. One time I had a leak from my kitchen sink. A guy called Kevin came out and though it took him until the next day to come to fix it I don't think that's any different from a plumber out of the Yellow Pages. There's not too much more to say because there was nothing that stood out as being an issue, which I think is a good thing when renting an apartment. I got my reference at the end so happy to give 4 stars.

We asked were inspections happening and they said they were inspected a few weeks prior. When we reviewed it a few days later there was very significant mould in many rooms.

If the issues are small the response time from Cuala is good…read more Bernie, the manager, tries her best to address more complex issues once they are escalated to her. The problem sits with the admin staff, they should be more invested in assessing highlighted issues as they are coming onsite regularly. Also some contractors (especially plumbers/ engineers) are lacking expertise and just charge big money for reporting back that things are ok when they are not, this can also affect the reputation of Cuala. They should not renew contracts with contractors who are unreliable and dishonest .

A fine opportunity for the discerning purchaser to acquire a period residence with all the amenities one could ask for on its doorstep.
