as a tenant, avoid avoid using Parkings. We rented a house for many years and it was old and run down. We chose for the location. Big mistake. The landlord told me he doesn't want Parkers to manage it as Parkers charges 15% management fee. But during the years he failed maintain the house. He is very old and been in hospital a lot. Most time can't reach him and he didn't want to spend a penny to repair things. So the windows (single glazed old wooden) got moulded. Mould on the ceilings and walls. I did everything to clean it but the mould left stains. Kitchen cupboards broken...the landlord was very rude when I reported issues. Siad he had trouble understand me. Although Parkers didn't make fee from him, they are on his side. Someone called mark called me very aggressive said we trashed the house. Yet he didn't care the landlord never cared to look after the house. For 8 years things will get worn. Carpets were old at the beginning and they expected they are the same after those years? What a joke. Before we were moving, parkers sent someone to take photos try to prove we didn't look after the house. We were packing why did I bother to tidy stuff? After we moved out, Parkers found some contractor, to do the cleaning, and rubbish removal. I would say the contractor ripped the landlord off. Firstly the invoice isn't detailed, only gave a figure. Secondly, it's way too much for professional cleaning and a bit rubbish removal. I guess the reason Parkers on the landlord s side is that they can rip more money from the landlord. He is not capable of doing the works for the house,that gives the opportunity to them to rip him off. Very despicable agent.

I am disappointed to hear that you feel your Landlord failed to maintain the property you were renting. I am fairly confident I know which property this relates to, but I believe you may be using an alternative name to mask your identity, which makes it difficult to comment on your accusations. Should you wish to discuss your concerns further, please feel free to contact me, I'd be delighted to talk these through with you. Mark Brooker, Lettings Director 0118 957 5455
