I have found the staff at Barkers to be helpful and professional. I have just sold my house with them and they were efficient and kept me informed at every step of the way.

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. Do not attempt to buy anything from this estate agency as judging by the actions of this young lady they are totally dishonourable.

What agent could do to change your mind?

Be better and faster at dealing with issues especially when it comes to basic sanitation!


Comments on Agent Fees

If a company charges a management fee in the rent then it should be obliged to manage the property or to remove the fee and stop misleading landlords and tenants alike.

They messed me about for two weeks on a property. They did not show up for the viewing. When I finally viewed the house I made an offer, it was rejected, I then offered the full price, and they told me the only thing I had to do was to go apply for the mortgage and pay the solicitor because...
