My husband and I bought a 'buy to let' property in Reading through Parkers in 2010. We did not have much knowledge of the local property market but found Mark Brooker to be the most helpful and courteous estate agent that we have come across in our 27 years of buying and selling properties. Damian helped greatly with the negotiations and ensured that the buying process went as smoothly as possible. This good experience was a key factor in helping us decide on choosing Parkers as the letting agent too. Within a week of being on the market, our property had been let to good quality tenants by their excellent lettings team! I have found the Parkers team to be very professional and would recommend them to anyone who is thinking of buying and/or renting in Reading.
Have been with Parkers now for over two years. From our first time in reading we checked a few agencies but Mark and the team at Parkers helped us find what we were looking for ie, place, size and budget. Their level of service and friendliness was what led us to choose them. When we were looking to move we went back to Mark and again the help and advice was second to none. If ever there is a question or a problem they are just at the other end of the phone or email. They have always been helpful and we would recommend them to anyone.
Having dealt with many agents in different countries I found the whole team at Parkers in Reading to be as good as I have come across. Being from another country and coming into a market cold can be very difficult at times but the team at Parkers made it extremely easy. Everyone in there office was obliging and friendly in their approach. This became evident by the third or fourth day everyone in the office knew who I was and we were on a first name basis. I would especially like to thank Damian who was just incredible and nothing was ever to much trouble for him and he actually went out of his way to assist me with things that would normally be outside the realms of his responsibilities. I felt an immediate connection with the staff here so much so that I am contemplating doing further business in Reading with the team from Parkers. I would highly recommend the team at Parkers , Reading for letting or purchase of real estate.
It would be invidious to single out individuals here, because they all work as a team, the best I have seen (and I have seen a few). The main thing for me is this: they were there when you needed them. If they said they would phone back, in, say, half an hour, they did phone back without fail and punctually so. They have what so many agents seem to lack: a sense of urgency, but also a sense of humour and somehow a soothing, calming effect on overstimulated customers overwhelmed by the complexities and uncertainties of buying (or selling) a home. I could wax lyrical about them for a while longer, but won't: let me just say this: consummate professionals, honest, knowledgeable, caring (oh dear, I wax again) . Thanks Parkers - Peter
I sent out a blanket email to a few agents asking for properties in the Reading area, and Parkers were very quick to get back to me, and gave me a lot of detailed information quickly. After one phone call I had five viewings booked all on one day, some of which I hadn't thought of looking at and were suggested by the agent herself. Once we'd found a potential house we made a couple of requests regarding what furniture was provided and the monthly rental price, all of which were met. My only criticism would be that during the viewings we were told that in some cases we would be meeting other people there who also wanted to see the property. I wasn't terribly keen on this, as it can be quite awkward, especially if both groups want to make an offer! I would urge Parkers to ask prospective tenants in advance if they're OK with this, but it is a minor quibble. Overall I'd definitely recommend using Parkers in the future.
We recently sold our property through Parkers Estate agents and could not be happier. we found them professional and courteous throughout the whole transaction and most of all Honest. From the initial valuation we felt comftorble and were not put under any pressure to sign a contract on the spot unlike some other agents. Then when we did decide to go onto the market Parkers were able to secure viewings on the property before detail sheets had been produced which was impressive. Once abuyer was found on the property special praise must go to Damien who helped us through the process and assisted in finding suitable quotes for a few bits of work that came up
Always prepared to go that little further customer service from mark and his team is 2nd to none The way you have dealt with my difficult tenant was great thank you thank you
I found Amy Maskell very helpful, efficient and transparent. She did not hide facts or gloss over warts. A refreshing change. Above all she was prompt in returning my phone calls and tried hard to secure my business.
I have used Parkers to rent out a property in Reading. From the first visit to the property and throughout the rental period they have proven to be efficient, accurate and a pleasure to deal with. From finding tenants to organising gas checks and any maintence requirements they have been excelent. A special mention must go to Sophie Green who has handled any day to day requirements to a very high standard. I would not consider another rental agent .
