Please watch out you will be trapped with illegal practises in Parkers reading. I was a Tenant and they take heavy checkin and check out charges but the house was given in shabby conditions with 70 page report of all issues on the day of checkin. My kids fell sick because of dust and mould in the house and no one in parkers cared about us and one day gas leaked and I had to call emergency. There was no Gas check report in the house and response from Parkers was poor because they don't care for human life. They clearly confirmed that they make money from tenants and will always be favouring the owner because its revenue generation and thay have to be in good books of owner. The check out was also not professional and they will Rip of the advance payment even though I got the cleaning done from their authorised cleaning agency. It was a hard struggle to go to Ombutsman and they will not tell you on the process. This is the reality that people should know on how illegal practises happen in Parkers Reading before taking any house on rent.

Hi Prasanna. Thank you for taking the time to highlight your concerns. I take any negative comments about a customer's experience seriously and I'd like to invite you to visit the office at any time should you wish to discuss your concerns in person. In the meantime, I would like to highlight a couple of concerns/errors in relation to your comments: Firstly, you would have been made fully aware of all charges applicable throughout the lifetime of the tenancy from day one. We do not hide any of our charges here at Parkers. The areas of dust/mould I believe you are referring to were only apparent when you pulled the appliances out in the kitchen, something cleaners or inventory clerks would not do. There has been a gas safety certificate completed annually, as required by law - I'd be more than happy to share copies of these with you as evidence. The check out was completed by a professional, independent inventory company, so I'm surprised to hear that you felt it was unprofessional. The main area you have been charged for is an unusually large stain on a bedroom carpet, which you had initially acknowledged and offered to pay for when it was highlighted on the check out report. An accusation of 'illegal practices' is something we take very seriously, so I would welcome a visit to discuss this in person, should you wish to pursue this claim.
