[[EDIT ORIGINAL START]] AVOID!!!! this letting agent is terrible, and i WOULD NOT!!! recommend any1 to rent with them. They charge you for nearly everything possible. If you miss an inspection they charge 15quid then they charge you 15quid again if you miss the second then they will let there self in with spare keys and the inspection has GOT! to be convenient for them and NOT! for yourself, they charge you 40quid for cleaning the cooker. you are not aloud to drill holes to put curtains up, they charge you an arm and a leg for animals, they also well known not to give your bond back and claim that items that belong to the house are brand new when they are NOT!!!!!. And its more expensive to move out from them that it is when you move in. And they are well known to be the worst letting agent around in the area.. (Didn't know this at the time i moved in). So if you can help it DON'T rent any property off them... BAD BAD BAD BAD BAD!!!!!!!!! [[EDIT ORIGINAL END]] Avoid!!!! This letting agent is terrible, and I would not recommend anyone to rent with them. They charge you for nearly everything possible. If you miss an inspection they charge 15quid then they charge you 15quid again if you miss the second then they will let themselves in with spare keys and the inspection has got to be convenient for them and not for yourself. They charge you 40quid for cleaning the cooker. You are not allowed to drill holes to put curtains up, they charge you an arm and a leg for animals. And its more expensive to move out from them that it is when you move in. So if you can help it don't rent any property off them.

29 Jul 2011This is exactly what i went through. £15 for a letter is ridicilous! They don't give you time...they don't give you which part of the day it will be (morning/evening). They don't carry a spare key with them unless you tell them too?? Bizzare! I moved into the house with a broken boiler on a sunday morning so my first days were in the cold!

I rented via Parkmans for 18 months and can honestly say I had no issues at all. When I initially contacted them they showed me 2 properties and the one I chose was very reasonable for the area and the process very straightforward. I was allowed to decorate (had to be put back upon vacation) and... Read Full Review

This is our first stint as tenants in a rented property, so we have no other agents to compare with. However, some issues have left a sour taste. The first is whenever you report a problem, they will give you their work person's mobile number. No matter how much you call and leave messages, you... Read Full Review

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
