Marsh & Parsons Brixton team were a great help throughout the buying process. James Taylor in particular went above and beyond to help get everything over the line and I'd recommend working with him - will be coming back next time for sure.

Excellent Property Management

They have been managing our property since we moved in, in September, and so far we haven't had many issues with the property. However, whenever we have had concerns or issues, Marsh and Parsons and our property manager have been very quick to respond and to get the issue resolved.

Good support on a complicated house purchase

The agents involved in our purchase of a property in London were great. It was a complicated deal that involved a lot of patience. They managed the difficult vendor very well.

Feels like I ve been Robbed with no prior warning....

Do not use Marsh Parsons if you want to be lied to and treated less than a human being. It’s been three months and I still have not got ANY deposits back or any confirmation as to when. They did not return my numerous calls and only replied to my emails after 2 months. Then they threatened and made allegations that I broke the contract and even lied that they have no recollection of the written confirmation. In my view - this is stealing of my deposit monies. They say they have no contractual relationship with me which is awful surely if you are the managing agent you would have integrity and treat your customers at least with some level of decency. I will have no choice but to report them to the property ombudsman to have the agency fully investigated and seek readdress.

Christine · 20 March 2021

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Hi there, we have received your complaint and it is currently being dealt with by the relevant department. However, you did break your contract outside of the agreed terms, and we have subsequently communicated the situation regarding your deposit in detail to you. Marsh & Parsons acts as deposit stakeholders and as such does not make any monetary gain from holding your deposit. We also strongly refute the claims you have made regarding how we have operated or our intent. Customer service is of paramount importance to us and your situation is no different. You will receive a response through the appropriate channels in due course. Regards, Marsh & Parsons

WORST Customer service ever

A friend and I recently viewed a flat in Kensington Olympia. The flat looked really nice and we were excited to move forward with the application. However, the agent became really pushy. We wanted a standard 1 year contract with a 6 months breaking clause (like other agencies offer, or even direct landlords). But the agent made it same as she and the landlord were doing us a favour by offering a 3 year contract with a 16 months breaking clause. (???)We didn't want this because all the furniture would have been replaced by the landlord. So basically she wanted us to sign for a 3 years contract for a place with furniture we have never seen before.We made a list of the furniture we would require and she made it seem like we were asking for too much and started to be rude towards us.Also, she contacted us during business hours and if we didn't reply for 40 minutes she would text us again asking for updates. We work, we are in meetings and we have things to do. But that didn't stop her, she kept texting and pushing us. After noticing all these red flags, we withdrew our offer form. I recommend that you stay away from Marsh and Parsons. They make it seem as they are doing you a favour by forcing you to sign a 3 years contract, but remember that you are the ones committing to spend your money. So you are making a favour to them, hence they should be way nicer to potential tenants.

Slow to Reply/Minimal Help

Initially, M&P was slow to respond when I faced issues in my apartment. I learned this is because my original agent had quit. I was transferred to a new agent about halfway through my tenancy and he was much more responsive but still not as helpful as I would have liked.

Excellent service from M&P

Callum and his colleagues at Brook Green Branch have done a terrific job selling our flat recently. Working to a tight timetable and with an overseas buyer, they brought the sale to a successful conclusion on the planned day of completion. Also, having rented this flat out over the past 11 years through Marsh & Parsons we have found that they have managed this process efficiently and effectively. Their staff were always polite and a pleasure to deal with.I would have no hesitation in recommending Marsh & Parsons for selling and letting property.

We were let down by Marsh&Parsons in…

We were let down by Marsh&Parsons in Barnes. We put our house on the market and everything was great until we had two buyers bidding for our house. Buyer A was a mum without a chain who was desperate to move to Barnes to be close to a local school, hence hugely motivated and a very reliable buyer. Buyer B was a young couple who just wanted to move into a house from their flat so not massively motivated and with a chain. Barnes branch manager Paul strongly advised against buyer A and for buyer B. We kept hearing him mention his 20 years of experience and were eventually convinced to stick to buyer B partly due to our integrity, as we already accepted an offer from them. Buyer B showed many disturbing signs of not being committed to sale demanding extra documents and looking for flaws. Every time we expressed our doubts about buyer’s B commitment, Paul he yet again convinced us that the buyer B was the right choice. Unsurprisingly buyer B pulled out of the sale after 2 torturous months following Hammersmith Bridge closure to pedestrians. I reached out to buyer A, who was very reluctant to go back to Barnes’ March&Parsons as she felt she was discriminated against by Paul, so bringing her back on board took some convincing and a £20,000 price reduction. During the process I learnt a few ugly details about her communication with Paul. I cannot know for certain what Paul’s motivation was when he advised against buyer A. The buyer A herself thought he saw the opportunity to satisfy a very demanding buyer (buyer B) and seeing buyer’s A motivation he knew any sale would be straightforward. I felt there was a hint of prejudice or possibly racism. Whatever the reason, when I called Paul to speak about the fact that buyer B pulled out, I did not even hear an apology. I asked for a reduction in agency’s fees as we lost at least £20,000 on this sale (buyer A did offer £25,000 extra, which Paul denied) and his response was a definite ‘no’. I guess I would not be writing this if he at least apologised for his very costly advice.PS. The response below is half-filled with lies i am afraid - a real shame.

Lana · 5 November 2020

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Dear Mrs Crow, We were surprised to receive your feedback given that you were fully informed of all communications during the negotiations with both potential buyers. You should recall Buyer A required two properties to be re-mortgaged alongside a new mortgage for your property. The due diligence we conducted indicated the financing would not be straightforward and until all applications had been accepted we couldn’t be confident in their ability to buy. We suggested this buyer pay a non-refundable deposit to mitigate the risk which they weren’t prepared to pay. This is why you decided to proceed with Buyer B. Unfortunately Buyer B found too many faults with your property and the legal paperwork provided and decided not to proceed. During that time, Buyer A was still receiving advice from their mortgage advisor and was eventually able to obtain the finance required to purchase your home. Market conditions and the closure of Hammersmith Bridge forced them to revise their original offer to a price you accepted. This buyer was guided through the purchasing process by Marsh & Parsons and eventually concluded the transaction with you. We strongly refute your claims of discrimination and racism. The team has worked tirelessly over a period of five months to secure you a sale and we are sorry you see things so differently. Kind regards, Marsh & Parsons

Lack of Integrity, money machine....

Absolutely disappointed by M&Ps management of our flat. Our flat was returned in a poor state. We used to pay them additional fees in order to manage our property, but felt as if they were continuously recommending works and when we refused they would leave things broken, rather then how they were initially. We've tried several times to rectify issues, but of course everything would require more money. What really caused me to question their integrity was when I was told that perhaps I could suggest holding back some of our tenants deposits to cover the costs.

George · 20 October 2020

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Hi George, we are of course sorry that you are not happy with your experience. Our third party contractors had to remove a bath panel to carry out some necessary works requested by your tenants; as is often the case in these situations, the contractor advised that the panel would need to be replaced but you did not allow them to proceed with this. In the meantime the tenants manually replaced the panel which has resulted in some minor damage. Please note, it is not the contractors responsibility to cover these costs nor does this fall to Marsh & Parsons. We are confident that we have kept you well-informed and guided throughout, and strongly refute any claims of avoiding our responsibilities/obligations. Kind regards, Marsh & Parsons

The worst letting agent imaginable.

I wish I had read Trust Pilot before engaging them to find a tenant. They are worse than bad and have lost us over £20,000 in unpaid rent. They recommended a tenant who was out of work, gave a dummy employer reference and was evicted from her previous flat. They have no concern about customer satisfaction at all. Their rent collection system is designed to be complicated so the landlord can not understand it. The manager of the Clapham office, Georgie, is a crook and a liar. Avoid Marsh and Parsons at all costs or use them to your peril. The only way they can still be in business is by conning people.You just replied saying contact you but who do I contact and on what number?

I never leave reviews but this was bad

I never leave reviews, but our eExperience was so bad I feel it necessary. The agent who showed us around brackets (Michael, Northcote Road) was completely unprofessional, time wasting and careless. To make things worse they have non-stop called me, emailed me and texted me since this- trying to get me to rent other properties from them. I have told them so many times now that I’m not interested and have even blocked their number. They managed to get round this by messaging me on mobile numbers.

If I could give -5 Stars I would !

A dreadful agency to work with !We visited a property in Kensal on 12 Kilburn Lane with my 6 month old daughter and wife. Not even the rats would wany to live there. The property was on offer at far to high a price and the condition of the flat was dire and smelled of an ashtray not to mention the agent was 10 minutes late for her own viewing. It should have been professionally cleaned even before being viewed.Also we visited a flat with another agency on the same day only to find out that this estate agency already pinched it by showing it one hour prior to us on th same day to one of there potential customers.When getting a courtesy call from one of the staff I commented on the above an how I was still looking for property. She seemed very upset when I expressed my opinion on how all agencies do not communicate to one another and how they are happy to let you view a flat knowing that another agency in turn might have already let it out ! (which is when the agent put the phone down on me).This type of attitude will not flow in this industry especially during these time !I would avoid them at all costs !

Utterly unrealiable and incompetent

Marsh & Parsons are utterly incompetent and unreliable. Have had so many issues with their handling of a rental property - from getting almost ALL the furniture orders wrong (which they only agreed to correct after we threatened legal action) to leaving a malfunctioning boiler and shower (the only shower in the property) unresolved for over 3 months, during a global pandemic. It’s exhausting dealing with them, everything is more convoluted than necessary. Perhaps they feel the need to prevaricate, and obfuscate to prove their utility. Awful experience, would strongly advise avoiding dealing with them altogether. Would never trust my purchase, sale or rental of a property with them.

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Hi Chai, we are sorry that you have experienced problems with during your tenancy. Unfortunately, as you live in a listed building there is a degree of complexity involved in installing a new boiler to this property - but we are working with our client to present a solution as soon as possible, and in the meantime have organised a pump installation to improve its performance. Your complaint is being handled by the relevant department manager at present and your landlord has been looking at options to resolve this matter for you. Kind regards, Marsh & Parsons

Worst Experience

After a smooth renting process, I have received the worst kind of property support from M&P. We received the house in the worst condition - dirty floors, filthy appliances that don't work, stuff left behind by previous tenants, and dirty windows. Our managing agent was out of office during our move-in and has not helped us one bit to resolve any issues. We are constantly following up and trying to make this house habitable for us to move-in but receiving no support in return. I will never live in a property managed by M&P again.

Eesha · 23 September 2020

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Hi there, we are sorry that you are not happy with your experience. The property was cleaned to a professional standard before you moved in and the landlord has since agreed to cover the cost of cleaning the inside of the oven for you. While we do not have property managers on-site during a move-in, the Lettings manager was on hand three hours before your check-in time to allow everything to run smoothly. We believe that the property is habitable, and our understanding is that all items referenced have been addressed and are being handled by the relevant department in due course. We also understand that your property manager is in daily communication with you through email and over the phone should you wish to discuss this further. Kind regards, Marsh & Parsons

We looked at a few agents in the area before choosing Marsh & Parsons. Mark was confident and knowledgable about the area. David managed the viewings and had booked 5 on the first day. He found us the right buyer after the first viewing and we have now exchanged. I would not hesitate to recommend. Mark, David and everyone else in the office, they have done a great job.
