We were at the property for 3 years, and during that time the staff turnover was awful, so you never knew who your point of contact is. The property was meant to be managed by Seekers, but we had to deal directly with the landlord if we actually wanted anything fixed. I have found all the staff to be quite rude and condescending. They were all more than helpful before we moved in, but that's where it ends. When we left the property we had it cleaned professionally, but they still managed to find a spec of dust somewhere, and charged us a cleaning fee, of over £200. I have since spoken to other ex tenants of Seekers, and this seems to be a standard. It doesn't matter how much you clean......they will always bill you for something on check out. Also, we had house inspections every 3 months, which is I think far too frequent. No one lives in a show home, and families make a mess. Now I'm not talking about bomb site mess, but the normal state any house hold would be in. During these inspections, you are made to feel like scum, and its far too intrusive. Surely they just need to check we haven't smashed the windows, pulled cupboards off the wall and actually damaged the property in anyway..........not tell me that I should have a tidy up before they come round. Its not there business if I'm not up to date with my ironing. We work full time, of course theres weeds in the garden! This is the first time we have used Seekers, and it will certainly be the last.
