Awful. Rang to enquire about a property. Kay sounded half asleep, didn't give her name clearly and didn't bother with her company name.
When I complained, her answer was 'cool'. Obviously she said no one else in the whole company was available to deal with ...

Awful experience. One of the worst experiences of my life renting through Parks.
This company does not represent the interest of tenants.

Parks Residential are shambolic. They front their business with smooth-talking agents who can't do enough for you BUT DON'T BE FOOLED!
As soon as you're into their substandard properties they could not care less about you, or your welfare.

*Avoid at all costs.*
In 15yrs of renting these have been the worst estate agents we've ever had.
Many promises at the start that were unfulfilled:
- There were problems with them accepting someone who is self-employed - which meant I had to pay 12 months ...

Parks is another example of the usual estate agent deal of being pleasant and nice, and as soon as you've signed the contract immediately becoming incredibly unhelpful, before fulfilling the stereotype of estate agents by taking copious amounts of your deposit for 'cleaning charges'.

Pros - we got our deposit back in full and promptly. They fixed issues when they arose in the apartment. They weren't intrusive as property managers. They were pleasant to interact with, particularly Amy, who was ...

Comment on agent fees
Compared to other agents that we spoke with in Brighton, Parks was particularly expensive and wanted a huge sum upfront. This was partly because we had no guarantor. However, even without a guarantor no other agent wanted eleven months upfront, as we were initially quoted. Given that other agents were offering less Parks agreed to reduce this to 6 months, plus 11 weeks deposit - still a substantially higher deposit than other agencies.
