Martin Marcus is trading as City Lets in Finchley now!!!

It's been a while since I posted here. I got some time to Mr. Martin (Robert) Marcus to earn some money and give back to people. Unfortunately, he thinks is smarter than others and instead of trying to give money back to people he is hiding and changing places.

He closed his office on 243 Well Street in Hackney and moved to Finchley.
He is trading as City Lets now. His address:

City Lets, High Road
707 High Road
London N12 0BT
Tel: 020 8492 8899
Fax: 0870 103 5890
http://www.yourcitylets.co.uk

His mobile number: 07920553910

Because of this I'm starting a new blog at http://www.city-lets-finchley.blogspot.com/ where I will track him and keep you posting on what he is doing and where he is so you can get your money back too.

Don't hesitate to contact me with e-mail: citylivinghackney@googlemail.com if you have any questions.

  2. Dear Mr. Kash,
    are you the owner of city lets?

    Or are you a friend of Mr. Marcus who helps him with his scam.

    Maybe you should take a look at my 2 posts at http://city-lets-finchley.blogspot.com/2009/07/letter-from-martin-marcus-city-lets-in.html and http://city-lets-finchley.blogspot.com/2009/07/companies-house-martin-marcus-city-lets.html

    Just to let you know - I already reported one of Mr. Marcus's old friend to police as a person involved in City Living Scam. He is not working with him anymore and they don't like each other now. Surprised?

    Now, I am going to report you as a person who helps to Mr. Marcus in his City Lets scam. It is not worth to be involved, Mr. Kash.

  3. My name is Kash again the owner of City Lets and even though I cannot get rid of this Blog I would like to make it clear that City Lets has no connection with City Living Hackney and if you persist with this slandarous defamation that is simply not true, you have made a big mistake then City Lets will be forced to start legal proccedings with you and anyone reading this please take note of my commenst,many thanks CITY LETS

  4. Dear Mr. Kash,
    let's agree with few things here:
    1. you are not the owner of city lets according to companies house. Please prove it if you are. We all will be very surprised.
    2. of course, from your point of view city lets have no responsibility for city living and you think that this is the way Mr. Marcus can escape from his responsibility. And you are wrong here - he is the same person who is director in both companies and he new about city living problems and he set up city lets. This is continuation of his criminal proceeding and every solicitor will tell you the same.
    3. Even if Mr. Marcus is trading as city lets now - he is still doing wrong things to many people, as city lets now.

    Feel free to follow my blog at http://www.city-lets-finchley.blogspot.com/

  5. Hi ,

    I've just stumbled upon across this post, not sure what's going on here, but obviously the City Lets can not be trusted.

    Any legitimated owner would provide all details (full name, position, telephone) instead of calling himself a mysterious "Mr Kash".

    Btw,sorry but your saying just does not make any sense. There is another one "It is fraud to conceal fraud"

  7. lies, lies, lies, Mr. Kash.
    I take your answer as offensive and racist, will report your name to police for this + helping Mr. Marcus's in his scam.
    Thanks God you are not a judge and you don't decide what is civil and what is criminal.
    I will make sure that people who are responsible to do that will tell you truth, even if you think different.

    To everyone: don't deal with city lets and Mr. Martin Marcus + his friends. Read my posts here and at http://www.city-lets-finchley.blogspot.com/

    My blog is no1 in google results for city lets finchley, martin marcus scam and few more. I will only take care that people will hear about him and all of results will be links related to my blogs.

    Mr. Marcus: you have stolen my+others money, this is our response!!!

  8. I look forward to speaking to the police so I can report you and they will tell you your fortune afterwards, I am right.

  9. CIty Living Hackney (City Lets Finchley) are fraudsters! I have a close friend who I personally watched as she battled as a victim of this terrible fraud. Do not trust these people!

    After researching, we have found over a dozen people who have also been scammed. This fraud incidently IS certainly a CRIMINAL act.

    This is how it worked: My friend found a place that she was interested in renting. This City Living Hackney (I guess now called City Lets Finchley) took her deposit but then did not provide her with the lease. They gave excuses and reasons for the delay etc, but then when this poor girl finally gave up and asked for her deposit back they refused to give it to her. They gave her such a run around of excuses trying to use complicated UK rules (which do not exist) and resorting to threats expecting her to give up. These people try to prey on the weaker consumer (foreign, older, poorer) and try to exploit them.

    And now, this man has the audacity to come on this blog and THREATEN this poor man who has been scammed and is simply trying to warn others? HOW VERY DARE YOU SIR. I cannot imagine that he is even able to look himself in the mirror.

    Once again, stear clear of these terrible people.

  11. Dear Anonymous,
    I know that it is you, hiding Mr. Marcus.

    To others: you don't need to believe me but feel free to call Hackney Trading Standards on 020 8356 3672 if you need more reliable confirmation.

  12. OK MK, City Lets will be instructing Solicitors tommorow the 3rd July 2009.

  13. Mr. Marcus, good solicitor is the one that tells you to pay your bills first because you may go to jail. I hope you have good one.

  14. Statement of FACT. MR MARTIN ROBERT MARCUS is the ONLY (I repeat, ONLY) Director of MARCUS HOLDINGS LTD, company no. 6856276. This is the company that trades as City Lets in Finchley. Their headed paper states this. For further confirmation go to http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/dcd2c66217da1ae2b579d4c0effc4a53/compdetails and Order the NEWINC - 10(ef) document. This information is correct as of 3rd July 2009. This comment is not slanderous or libelous, is it just a statement of FACTUAL public information. You will also see from the Form 10(ef) that it is a CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION OF A PRIVATE LIMITED COMPANY. I called Companies House on 03031234500 and confirmed with them that this company is NOT, as "KASH" has previously stated, a SOLE TRADER. It simply isn't possible to be a Sole Trader AND a Private LTD company at the same time. I think I can quite legally say, without slandering or defaming Mr. KASH that his statement about being a SOLE TRADER is just NOT TRUE.

  15. "My managers are in the process of coomencing legal action as the connection is wrong". Forgive me for pointing out the obvious here. But, if there's no connection between City Lets Finchley and City Living Hackney then why does City Finchley Lets use the SAME LOGO and City Living Hackney. http://www.findaproperty.com/agentdetails.aspx?edid=00&salerent=0&agentid=28743. Again, this is FACT. As well as this there is always the FACTUAL connection that the director of Marcus Holdings Ltd (City Lets Finchley) and Marcus Page Ltd (City Living Hackney). I think I can be legally safe in saying that that constitutes a pretty BIG connection?

  16. I'm not sure whats going on here but i am trying to contact Martin Marcus. I am a private landlord and am getting very concerned about what i am reading. Martin came to me with tenants saying he had done all the relavent checks. I have some major questions now about these people who are now in my property. I dont want to jump to conclusions so if you read this martin please get in touch to clear this up and i will be the first one back of here defending you.

  17. Once again I will stress that City Lets Finchley is Mr A Kash t/a City Lets. I want to make it clear that I am not a Limited Company and therefore the information is wrong and to be honest, it is very clear that all the other anonymouse comments on the blog except me of course are the same person you MK and waht you are trying to do is make out that it is lots of different people making comments, no it is just you. As a matter of fact the logo is a franchise brand and like Winkworth each company is indivdually owned by different people. This in fact now is getting very boring and I would appreciate your name and address MK so we can get our solicitors to contact you with regard to this matter as your facts are incorrect, the Limited Company in question is irrelevant with regard to this conversation and I do intend to take this matter further and I do hope anyone reading this can read between the lines and I have also looked at your paperwork re companies house and logos, those of which have been made up by you MK, and of course anyone whom is a director of a limited company is on public record. I really cannot say much more, as the writer of this blog MK will continue to write more false information, more replies that really come from him, so to be honest there is really not much point in me replying to any further comments on this blog or the other blogs from the same person, but as already stated if you want to clear this up once and for all please do provide me with your full name and address, rather than hiding behind the internet making slandarous comments.

    I do beleive in freedom of speach but this is riduculous and any one with any intelligence should read between the lines and see that we are a completely different company.

    To all that read this message MK will now reply " LIES LIES LIES", he wont listen to me or anyone else, so I may have to trace this man myself to commence legal proceedings.

    I have done my research and just because someones limited company becomes insolvent and closes maybe like Hackney City Living doesnt mean they were Scam artists or thieves it just means they went out of business in a difficult climate as many business do and I am sorry to say when that happens like woolworths for example some people lose out financially.

    I have come to the conclusion there is no point arguing with this guy he will only continue adding more stuff from false people that are really him on this blog after me, because hae can and wants to discredit my company and has a vendetta with Martin Marcus, that is for sure and I will let people come to their own conclusions as these blogs cannot be removed as they are under American Law, not UK.

    Anyway, I will not be puttimg any more messages on this blog as it is a waste of time and if anyone wants to discuss this with me you have my contact details.

  19. Mr Kash a very simple question - does Martin Marcus work for or with you.

    ReplyDelete
  20. I have put this out on a couple of different websites and the response is starting to become very worrying if your a tenant or landlord with Martin Marcus. Please dont take my word for it contact city lets directly for answers and see. Also contact treading standards they are aware and investigating Martin Marcus just ring and see for yourself.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Told you what a coincendence that these people suddenly appeared isnt it I told you.

    Kash

    I am still waiting for MK's name and address.
    PS
    City Lets are not being investiged thats for sure because we have done nothing wrong my friend.

    ReplyDelete
  22. I have just realised from going through the blog,you are saying we are taking peoples money and then not providing them with a flat or house. So the scam you are suggesting is fraud of course. Now MK, you have commited Slander and Defamation of Charachter and I suggest that you provide me with your full name and address so I can commence civil proceedings against you. I suggest you call the Police to come and visit me so I can then get your personal details, because waht you are saying is fraud and myself or any associates have never taken money with the view to Scam individuals out of money be deception and not provide the property. That is completely different from a deal falling through because a Landlord or Tenant changes his mind or a Landlord and Tenant go out of their way to cut out the agent, that is also unethical and fraudulent.

    Now, if all these blogs are not removed and there are 4 or any more new ones appear we will be forced to contact the Police ourselves or employ a Private Investigator to find where you live so we can commence legal proceedings we give you MK until Monday Comimg to adhere or we will provide proof that no Scam has been taken place and then once we commence civil proceedings we will publish our own blog via google to be transparent and show everyone the docs that we process via the court system to validate what has happened. MK it is upto you, you, you have now one chance to do this and I suppose if you then get prosecuted it will affect you right to remain in the UK as you are obviously on a work or temp passport.

    MK enough is enough you are mistaken, no Scam has occured and I strongly suggest you really listen to me now, as I am not JOKING I AM DEADLY SERIOUS, I will find out where you live and start proceedings in the courts and also contact the Home office Monday as well as because of your misconception you are being slandarous and this is not praying on vunerable, youy are far from vunerable, what you are MK is ignorant and mis informed and very very very wrong and I suggest that anyone that comes across this guy dont entertain him in business, this is not VERY DARE YOU, this is me telling it as it is, the facts and nothing else.

    MK is a person that should know his/her facts before they slander themselves over the Internet.

    MK do you understand, the next time I am going to chech this is midday on Monday and if it is still on, which I presume it will be I will act as I have already said, its upto you my friend.

    Kash

    City Lets Finchley

    PS: I do hope that anyone following this has the sense to see that what is going on and I do hope you dont P off this guy because he/she is irrational and does not listen to any reason.

  24. A message to the private landlord who is concerned about certain checks. I am a landlord also who engaged in a contract with City Living Hackney. The Assured Shorhold Tenancy Agreement that City Living drew up for me stated that "the deposit will be held by City Living under the www.mydeposits.co.uk scheme. It has come to the end of my tenant's contract and my tenant has contacted www.mydeposits.co.uk and the deposit is certainly NOT in that scheme. This makes City Living Hackney in breach of contract. The legale situation regarding my tenant's deposit sates that I, as the landlord, are fully liable for this deposit because I did not check and get a certificate from www.mydeposits.co.uk as proof that City Living Hackney entered the deposit into the scheme. The law also states that I am now liable for 3 times that amount should my tenant decide to take me to court.

    I would advise that you check with City Lets Hackney about your tenant's deposit situation. If your contract states that the money will be held under the mydeposits.co.uk scheme, then check that the deposit is indeed in that scheme. You can do a search for your tenants name and address via their website. If it's not in there, and obviously only IF the City Lets AST contract states that it is, then there is a chance that City Lets will be in breach of contract and you may be able to sue them to that effect. If nothing else, if you find that the deposit is not in a deposit scheme at all, then you, as a landlord are breaking the law (after 10 days of the commencement of tenancy areeement), and you are liable for 3 times that amount from your tenant under UK law. It is not illegal, immmoral or bad practice for you to call City Lets and ask them these questions. And also any other questions regarding checks etc... Any other reasonable busines will be more than happy to give you all the information you need rgarding their contract with you/your tenant. For the record, I am not MK, but I feel extremely sorry for this poor man and I wish him luck in all his legal matters and also want to make people aware that they should check everything through meticulously to ensure City Lets Finchley are doing everything they say they ae doing.

  25. I tottally agree with the above comment all deposits either have to be in the DPS of insured scheme within 14 days of commenecment of the tenancy and if City Living in Hackey did not do that then it was wrong and I stress we do not do that..


    Kash City Lets Finchley


    PS: I agree we are totally transparent and it is normal business practice for us to make sure the law is adhered to. Anyway Doing the right thing MK is saying we do scams taking money and not giving the property and trying to connect us with Hackney, which is not true, thats the slanderand HES WRONG

  26. Hello,

    This is just a tip of iceberg, unfortunately there are tons of scammers like City Lets Finchley in London.

    If you have nothing to hide Mr Kash, why don't you provide us with your full name, business title and phone number or email?

    Mr Kash sounds like a typical life loser, who probaly fail many times in business.

    MK, my advice to you is: contact local media and tell them your story, I'm sure they will investigate this.

  27. Robin, you know nothing about me and where do you get off making comments on things or people that you nothing about, I am coming to the conclusion that then type of people that make these blogs or read them are very much losers at least I have a reason to make comment to put the record straight and because of this I wish to make no further comment and the only thing I will do is ignore this nonsense.

    Kash

  28. Catherine Smart, Kingston4 July 2009 at 19:03

    Robin is right, this man is clearly a bully who is hiding and not providing any contact details. If this company he is running is a legitimate enterprise then he would not be making so many threatening comments and hiding behind a single name.

    I am disgusted by your firebrand scare-tactics Mr. Kash. Oh yes and I AM providing MY name!

    MK you must go to the media, the police I am sure are not very aggressive with such things without the attention created by the onslaught of the media.

    ReplyDelete
  29. We all know that Mr. Kash is telling lies here. We all have been scammed by Mr. Martin Marcus who is hiding his head in sand now and showing us Mr. Kash who is hiding his real name. Mr. Kash is close friend to Mr. Marcus and they work together.

    I would like to thank to all people who post comments here. The more people hear about Mr. Marcus, Mr. Kash who is helping him, City Lets Finchley which is continuation of City Living Hackney scams, the less people get involved in their scam in the future.

    Please keep posting your comments and if you want me to publish anything as a new post then feel free to contact me with e-mail (citylivinghackney@googlemail.com) too.

    Thanks for advise to contact media. I already contacted BBC Watchdog and I hope we will see a nice tv programme soon :)

  30. City Lets Finchley dont even have their own premises, they rent a serviced office for flumpence a week in a building of offices, (have been scammed before out of that building,) they can just disappear just as quickly as they steal rent and deposits

    ReplyDelete
  31. I think the best thing now is to get everything out into the open. I would urge anyone who has been affected by Martin marcus to contact trading standards. If what Mr Kash is saying is true then city lets have nothing to worry about as official records at companies house should show who offically is the owner. Also it allow them to see how many people have actually been scamed (if any).

    I would also say everyone who believes they have been scamed to contact watchdog. Again if Martin Marcus has nothing to do with City lets or he has not actually taken peoples money and refused to give it back he has nothing to worry about.

    ReplyDelete
  32. That sounds good to me lets leave it at that the.

    Kash

    This will definately be my last post

    ReplyDelete
  33. Mr. Kash - you are wrong if you think that people will leave it. Mr. Marcus owes a lot of money to a lot of people. We will not leave it as it is and I will make sure that people will know about you as a person who helps with Mr. Marcus's scam and your companies: city living, city lets and all next ltds and others you set up in future. You are a coward because you even don't say your real name when people ask you for it. This is because you are scared as much as Marcus is. I will only make sure that all what should happen will happen.

  34. I have emailed myfap@findaproperty.com to ask them to investigate City Lets Finchley to ensure they are a proper and legal company and advised them that it would not look good for FindAProperty.com if they are found to be working with estate agents involved in unfair and improper activity. I am awaiting a response from them. I would advise anyone reading this BLOG who has been affected by bad practice from City Living Hackney and/or City Lets Finchley to email myfap@findaproperty.com to ask them to investigate. The more people do it the better and if FindAProperty finds that there is untoward behaviour happening on the part of City Lets, then they can remove City Lets from their system. Can someone please publish any other on-line estate agency services that City Lets Finchley is registered with so that I/we can contact them as well.

  35. Hi DoTheRightThing,
    thanks a lot for this. I will contact findapropoerty owners. I will also send e-mail to all people who contacted me with problems related to Mr. Marcus, City Living or City Lets to do the same.

    To everyone: if you have any ideas on what to do to get our money back and finish Mr. Marcus's scams then please contact me with e-mail (citylivinghackney@googlemaila.com) too. I will forward it to other people so we get more action together.

  36. Martin Marcus is a crook and deserves to be in prison!

    Mk if it's ok by you i want to post a link to this blog on a couple of property rental websites so people who may have been affected by this man can get in touch. Also i am going to let a couple of the larger tenant and landlords associations know about him and Mr Kash!

    ReplyDelete
  37. Hi DoTheRightThing, I have searched for City Lets on a number of property web sites and could only find them on FindAProperty and HotProperty. I've emailed both of them. HotProperty can be contacted on customerservices@hotproperty.co.uk. I would urge all other affected readers of this BLOG to contact both FindAProperty and HotProperty with details of all the facts of your "case" regarding City Lets/Living and they can make the choice whether to suspend/investigate.

  41. Who is Kash? oN THE ANSWERPHONE IS MARTIN'S VOICE. Martin Marcus will be caught soon and put in prison hopefully.By the way his wife is the codirector her name is Corinne Marcus. Has anyone out there who is owed money by him (there must be lots of us) bothered to follow him from his office in Finchley to Bushey where he is supposed to live? The police and Trading Standards in Barnet should be informed. CROOK CROOK CROOK!

  47. Information for all who have been affected by Martin Marcus. The OFT currently has a list of all dodgy estate agents and they will shortly be bringing one out for letting agents. Please keep your eye out or speak to the OFT directly about how this man has conned you. I will write again on this blog once this list is out and would urge everyone who is owed money to speak to the OFT to get martin/kash/city lets on this list!

  48. I currently have high court judgement against Martin Marcus from City living. I will not be resting until I get action and results as whilst he normally preys on people who cannot afford to chase him - i can and I will.

    Anyone like minded who is keen to stop him in his tracks let me know and we can think abit more creatively about taking this to the next level. He is going down and I am determined to protect the next people's good will he preys on.

  49. Hi there..
    My name is Borja and I'm another victim of Martin Marcus, signed contract, gave money and never get the key of the house nor my money. That was like a month ago..

  50. This man owes me money from a few years ago, you may waste your time taking him to court as he normally goes bankrupt. Although he thinks he can win this way, he will meet his match one day.

  52. Just as recently as this week, a family member had paid, signed contract and was waiting for keys for the property only to find that the agent went to check over the property Martin Marcus had put a tenant in the flat without the landlords knowledge!!!! and now is is on holiday.......what a surprise.....it will come to an end for this man very soon

  53. Go to the following URL: http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/38a569e14d9a65300a6e8c285007db49/wcprodorder?ft=1
    And order the NEWINC document. I think that will cost you £1. That document has an address stated in it. Whether it's real or not is another matter!!!

  54. To Ms. Sara Jane Manning and all the interested in the matter:
    My name is Borja Dorado, I have been scammed by Martin "I love £££ more than wine" Marcus. We did sign a tenancy agreement and he breached it. (no keys, no money back either)
    Now is been more than a month and still can get my money back, this is the last mail I've got from them.., as you can see he is such a lovely guy, he's not refussing to give me my money back, as long as my solicitor claim for it.., golden hearted this motherfucker, is not he? :o))
    Don't you think that a proper agency, trader or whatever he call himself will apologise and sort out everything without all this inconveniences??

    De: "Borja Dorado Laguna" bdlaguna@yahoo.es Ver detalles del contactoPara: mail@yourcitylets.co.ukHi Martin:

    Regarding the £2000 that you own me, I would like to meet you tomorrow Monday 20th at 17:30 at Golders Green Station.

    You may pay it by cash or check.

    For the check, name it to: Francisco de Borja Dorado Laguna
    That is my full name, so I will be able to cash it, no like the last check you signed for me (for £1500, amazingly, when you own me £2000..!!!) which I could not because you did not write my name properly on it.

    I believe that this has been going on for long enough and I have tried to be as considerate as posible.

    Now, either you give me my money back tomorrow 20th or I will sue your company for it, if that is the way that you want it.

    Borja.

  57. Borja,

    This man will not give you your money back! Check with wrong name, No funds in the account these are all his tactics not to pay!

    Go to his office and demand the money because there are a number of people trying to get there money back via solicitors/courts and all he will do is shut down the company and set up a new one. He still owes alot of money and will try every tactic no to pay.

    This man is a con artist and unless you go and confront him directly will always give you the run around.

    I hope you do get your money back and if you do please tell us how you did it.

  58. This man just took a family friend's money last week. He did not hand over the key. When she asked for her money back, he gave her £1000 in cash and £2500 in cheque.

    The cheque bounced. When the lady went back to City-lets, he walked her out of his office.

    Mr Marcus, if you are reading this blog. You are as good as dead.

  63. This has brought up so many unpleasant memories of 2 years ago when we were scammed by City Living. The threatening tone, and their sheer stupidity. How do they make this work and how are they not behind bars yet. It won't be long until everything is taken off him and he pays his price, I'm sure.
