We are buyers and have had horrible experiences with this agency from the start. We found a property online we wanted to view, rang Tucker Gardner up, and they took 3 entire weeks, over 20 phone calls of chasing, and several emails to finally just book a viewing of the house for us. They kept... Read Full Review

The worst agency I ever had during my last 3 years in the UK. Guys, I wish you would be smart to check agency reviews on the internet before you start your tenancy. So here is my advice: RUN AND NEVER COME BACK TO THEM. Scroll down. I don't want to repeat all the same complaints listed down... Read Full Review

What agent could do to change your mind?

Competitive at 1%, but not the cheapest. Yet, given your experience I'd rate them as massively overpriced.

What agent could do to change your mind?

Change the business model, stop being one of the group of agents responsible for the disgraceful state of property in Cambridge (which now looks like mid-1970s Soviet Poland), stop dealing in lazy absent landlords who don\'t care and remember that come the glorious day when one of us scum reach the dizzy heights of buying a property, guess where we\'re not going to come.

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.
