I've heard some horror stories over the years from friends about various letting agents but my experience with Tucker Gardner this winter has been fantastic. We had an issue with the boiler and the same day we raised the issue they got the engineers out who identified the problem straight away. Knowing what needed to be done we were worried we'd be left in the lurch but they kept us in the loop the whole time, answered any questions and queries quickly, they got fan heaters out to us for the time we'd be without a boiler and got everything fixed up within the week. Very happy.

TuckerGardner have spoken with this tenant and explained our position. Unfortunately, we act as custodians of the landlords money and are unable to make any decisions regarding expenditure without his authority. Although the tenant understands our dilemma, we do agree that this is of no help to the tenant and we are continuing to do our very best to get all outstanding issues resolved. ...

How terribly unfair to pick out a staff member by name, given that this was a situation entirely of the tenant's own making. Tenancy agreements contain break clauses, which in our case is two months for the landlord and just one month for the tenant (many tenancy agreements make it two months for both so ours is quite lenient). In this instance the tenant wanted to leave without giving any notice and quite rightly was told that they could not do so. They did then serve notice but they then retra ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Return telephone calls. Time frame not important just now, just work on returning them first - small steps. Follow up Record conversations so you know what each of you promised on each occasion Take your responsibility and the impact you have on people's lives seriously Take responsibility for your (MANY) errors - don't shift the blame onto your tradesman. Don't lie about them and don't pretend that you have no control over them. They work for you. Test appliances and fixtures before you let a property - don't expect me to pay to live with the discomfort of your laziness Visit a property before you let it, make sure it is indeed 'unfurnished' and clean.
