Started renting from this agency early in 2020. All started off well. Staff came across as professional and polite. But with estate agents, you can’t know how good they are till an issue comes up that needs resolving. Barkers failed miserably at sorting issues with the property. A ... Read Full Review

At first my view of them was average, but a tad on the negative side. Having completed my inventory check and mentioned certain things that were wrong, they made no effort to rectify them. I assume this is simply for them to compare when I leave, if those things are still broken. Only a few ... Read Full Review

Don't know who it was who showed me around the properties, but she could not have been less interested. Treated with complete indifference.

Jessica belongs to the school of estate agents who believe their own lies.
