I went in to Tucker Gardner to ask a few questions about buying a property to let. My questions were answered very thoroughly and then the agent came up with a few suggestions that I hadn't thought of that I should considered. He, James Moore, ...

As stated before, is a really unprofessional company and takes a long time to communicate with them. Every time you try to contact them they will pass you to a different agent who have no idea about the issues you have been trying to solve.

Good afternoon
We are really sorry to hear of your disappointment with the service you have received. I would like to make sure this is dealt with as soon as possible but am finding it difficult to locate which property your comments relate to as unfortunately I can't see your name or a property address mentioned.
Please could I ask that you contact our Lettings Manager directly at [email protected] who will be on hand to deal with this matter promptly.

Thank you for your review. I have checked with the team in Ely and I understand that they are in the process of arranging a second opinion, as the first contractor is not sure of the source of the moisture. Unfortunately, this does take time however they will speak to the second contractor again today to ensure he attends as soon as possible. Please do feel free to call the office if you require a further update. ...

Thank you for your comments. We do, of course, take our reputation very seriously and work very hard to ensure a positive experience for our customers. In this instance, we do not have a staff member called 'Kate' so I am unable to make enquiries to see what actually happened. If you had indeed booked a viewing with TuckerGardner and were there on time, then I have no doubt that an agent would have been there to meet you. Sometimes external factors (such as traffic) mean that both ourselves and ...

We are, as always, working within best practice guidelines and will, of course, comply fully with any TDS dispute outcome. The nature of the comments above do not reflect our experience of the tenancy or the end of tenancy procedure. ...

Cleaning is an emotive subject and where there are issues at the end of tenancy all agents will be familiar with the claim 'it's cleaner than when I moved in.' We have very clear end of tenancy guidelines, explaining the final inspection process and recommending the use of a professional cleaning company. If there are still issues then all tenants now have the comfort of being able to refer the matter for free, independent arbitration, whereby we have to demonstrate with the inventory and photos ...
