Good experience from start to finish, quick and efficient check in process, good communications throughout the tenancy and exceptional help dealing with the landlord over the closing months of the tenancy followed by a thorough and efficient check out. Couldn't be more pleased with the service provided. Well done Prospect, would definitely use your services again.

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.

This agent will do everything possible to keep your deposit. Despite paying for professional cleans, decorating and spending more time making your old house nice and shiny instead of getting your new house ready to be lived in, they will take you to the cleaners literally.

Our experience has been very BAD and DISAPPONTING. We are renting a property with Prospect in Reading and it takes ages to resolve our issues, most of which have been outstanding for over 6 months. The landlord is very adamant about not completing basic repairs, as stipulated in the lease and... Read Full Review

I must say if you are thinking renting with Prospect agency please DON'T. When i came for the apartment viewing the agent agreed with everything i asked. It was very important for me the apartment to be pet friendly, the agent confirmed that on the viewing day. I must say the behavior from... Read Full Review

I genuinely couldn't stress enough to stay away from this business. They ignored the landlady for 6 weeks over a very simple request under her fully managed lettings contract. The only way we eventually managed to get them to contact us was by 3 visits to their offices with complaints letters ... Read Full Review

The only saviour for Prospect are the team you deal with initially. Once you are in contract however, the management team is appalling. My rental direct debit was increased without my consent and I was bombarded with emails and letters asking for payment. I challenged every one of them until I got... Read Full Review

The check out process has been an absolute nightmare. I wasn't informed that the checkout will not be happening, due to Covid-19, till I had called to find out why no one had turned up. I was asked to drop the keys in their office, through their letter box. 2 days letter, I receive a call... Read Full Review

The first time we viewed properties with Prospect the estate agent was 15 minutes late with no courtesy call. The agent had very little details on the history of the landlord and detailed specifics of the property such as council tax bands and parking permits etc. Constantly being told we should...

They never solve the problem. Always saying the Landlord is away and never answer the phone. Then, why an estate agency exist if is not to take own decisions without confirmation from the landlord? Then go away and I will contact the Landlord directly. At the checkin I have to pay for bateries... Read Full Review
