Lunch time viewing

Charlotte attended my viewing and what a lovely warm welcoming lady.
Charlotte was able to answer the questions and also found out extra information while we were at the property.
The property is in a lovely quiet area just what I wanted.
Charlotte followed with an email, and by the time I got home another email was received for my details. Very efficient service.

Thanks you and fingers crossed 🤞🏿

After 8 years collaboration (both rental and selling) with Rex Gooding – the association has finally come to an end. During that time our interests were carefully managed by the professional team at Rex Gooding including Stuart, Esme, Donna Charlene et al. From our experience we have no hesitation in recommending Rex Gooding and the team in buying selling and renting a property.

Hello Adrian,

I am sorry if it appears so but this really isn’t the case. We have had a series of bad experiences with tenants at this property but across our 900 managed properties this is extremely rare.

We have had 3 neighbours contact us over the last few months and let us know of some issues regarding the current tenant and her partner who they assume is living there but the tenant and contact from her partner on Friday last week, they deny this. We are trying to book in an inspection.

We are following our anti social behaviour procedure.

The tenant had said the overflowing bins were being dealt with at the end of Jan when raised but we are aware this is still a problem. We have been assured again that it will be actioned.

As you will be aware, we have asked that any incidents are reported to the council and police as this will help any potential claim.

I am sorry we aren’t able to act on what we have at this stage but as much evidence as you can provide will enable us to progress matters. Please do contact esme@rexgooding.com, Esme is working very hard to resolve this situation.

Thanks

Absolutely awful - Rex Gooding do not care about their tenants

We were tenants with Rex Gooding for 6 months and the experience was awful.
The main issue were the tall hedges surrounding the property. At 3 months in, we paid hundreds of pounds to have them trimmed ourselves (to be responsible tenants, taking care of the property) but shortly after we paid, we discovered that it is the landlords responsibly, as tall hedges are a health and safety risk because they require a tall ladder and specialist cutting equipment. James at Rex Gooding agreed that the hedges were the landlord's responsibility. However, the landlords dodged their responsibility and only paid half the cost (as we had already paid, they got away with this). When we left the property 3 months later, the landlords insisted that we pay for the hedges again and this time the full amount. Jemmima at Rex Gooding sided with the landlords and insisted that we should pay, even though we provided multiple evidence to her that it was not a tenant's responsibility. Her attitude was dismissive and we felt pressured by her to pay. This went to the Deposit Protection Scheme and we had to provide evidence for our case and wait for an independent judgement to see if we would be given our full deposit back. The Deposit Protection Scheme sided with us and our deposit was returned in full - Jemmima at Rex Gooding had been wrong.

There were numerous other issues throughout our 6 months with Rex Gooding - a big ant problem in the property on move-in day, serious health and safety concerns with the electrics (it took four days for Rex Gooding to get back to us, and I had to chase them), alarm issues, window problems and a shower issue - it was clear from the slow responses / ignored phone calls and their attitude that they didn't care about their tenants.

Rent to Rent nightmare

We leased a property for 5 years via a rent to rent strategy that we introduced to them which they continue to use today.

After 5 years they contacted us only 1.5 months before the lease was to renew and suggested the rent should be doubled.

We tried to reason as to why this was not feasible but we were rejected. We then had 1 month to rehouse tenants. The house was advertised before it should have been and they took our keys and would not return them even though the house was still legally ours.

They are refusing our £3000 deposit and have not supported why with substantial evidence other than saying that the house needs redecorating, the house needs weeding and apparently we owe even more rent which was never supported without any evidence as we have a solicitor letter stating otherwise.

Despite us requesting our deposit back and giving plenty of reasons as to why they are holding this illegally - they have IGNORED our request and have successfully had our deposit since 17th September when our lease ended.

They have left us with outstanding debts and we are in a worse position that we were before having the property.

If you want a reputable agent - Avoid Rex Gooding at all costs as they do not care for you. They just care about their pockets.

Hi Sophie,

I am sorry that this relationship has ended as it has.

As you know, this was a commercial lease.
The landlord asked for a rental increase on lease renewal and is able to do such under the Landlord and Tenant Act 1954 which governs business tenancies.

You were advised to make a counter offer but at £1600 pcm against the £3000 pcm market value he didn’t consider this suitable.

You agreed we should try to relet and sent us keys. We had an offer immediately for £3000 pcm.

Under the lease, rent is due until the date you provide vacant possession. You didn’t serve the requisite notice on your subtenant (instead choosing to change the locks on him with the council having trying to - also mentioning your failure to have an HMO license in place).

The lease required redecoration and gardening on exit. These items form the dilapidations claim which is being dealt with by the landlord. I understand his lawyer is to contact you next week.

I can assure you, we aren’t pocketing from anything.

Again, I’m sorry things haven’t worked out but I would advise going back to the solicitor who acted for you when you took out the lease so they explain the position.

Thanks

Highly recommend renting with Rex…

Highly recommend renting with Rex Gooding! We were renting our flat for over 2 years and we had an excellent experience from start to finish. Anything raised was dealt with quickly and efficiently with good quality maintenance providers, any Rex Gooding staff that spoke to us over email or came to do inspections at the flat were so lovely, and in particular our main point or contact, Jackie, was amazing. They were particularly helpful to liase with the property owner when we were at end of contract and looking to buy a property, so they helped us get on a rolling monthly contract. Thank you!

Sale of old persons flat

The sale of my mothers flat was particularly difficult given the involvement of a housing agency who held a long lease over the property
The team were very helpful in finding a buyer and keeping in touch throughout the 7 months it took to complete the legal process
I’m very grateful
