GoogleWe rented a property in Nottingham through Rex Gooding until recently. From the beginning the service was terrible. On the moving in day the house was being painted! We had to wait another 5 days before we could actually move in even though we were paying rent. Basically there had been no communication between Rex Gooding and the landlord of the property. Then at the end of the tenancy they tried to charge us for the 5 lost days.
Throughout the tenancy Rex Gooding were very slow to handle maintenance issues and often didn't get back to us for days.
We left the house in immaculate condition and spent 4 hours thoroughly cleaning it. When I asked about getting my deposit back they said the oven needed to be professionally cleaned even though we had cleaned it. It seems they wanted the oven to be as new. Finally they now tell me that I need to pay for tidying up the tiny garden (Β£180) - it's the middle of the winter and all there is to tidy are fallen leaves; and a full professional clean of the house (Β£325) plus miscellaneous other items. It's daylight robbery!!
This is our 7th rental and we have never had any deposit deducted previously as we always take care of the properties we rent and always leave the property in a good state.
So beware of Rex Gooding! They are very unprofessional and very dishonest. Rent elsewhere if you can. You will only have issues.

Dear Christian
Iβm sorry you felt you needed to leave us a poor review but appreciate you had threatened doing so if the landlord chose to apply for deductions from your deposit.
It was very disappointing that despite the landlord agreeing the move in date they were still decorating the lounge on your move in date. This is certainly not something we find acceptable and we understand the landlord met with you and was incredibly apologetic.
At check out the landlord and our inspector visited. The landlord wasnβt happy with the cleanliness of the fridge and oven amongst other areas of cleanliness and lack of attention to the garden. Quotes were obtained to rectify. I can see from the notes you said that your wife assured you that she had cleaned the oven and fridge. The photographic check out report is available for your attention. Our correspondence prior to check out details the importance of addressing these areas and in particular the garden as this was something the landlord asked us to confirm.
We would encourage you to reply through the DPS, as you are unhappy with the claim, they will independently review the situation.
Best wishes,

GoogleNot been with this estate agent long but since renting with them, they have been brilliant. We moved into a newly renovated house and so some things were expected to come up as the house settles but everything we've asked Jemmima to look at, she has gotten checked out and sorted very quickly. Honestly couldn't be happier with how everything has gone so far.

GoogleRexGooding are without doubt the best Estate Agents I have dealt with, both when purchasing and letting property in the Nottingham area. They are incredibly thorough and professional, ensuring every last requirement is completed to the highest standard.

Tom and Lucy from the Bingham Office made the sale of our property as painless as could be. They provided "old fashion" service and values with quick,modern communications. We were kept updated on viewings and feedback and, as the property was empty, they took care of everything with no fuss. Thank you so much.

TrustpilotChloe at Rex Gooding
I could hardly believe the response I received from Chloe at Rex Gooding. How very unprofessional. I am so pleased that Jackie Richards was upset, as I was extremely upset when she messed up so many appointments and cost me money when I raced back home and no-one turned up. Perhaps when she becomes self-employed she will realize the hurt and damage, not to mention the money lost that I have suffered from her stupidity.Incidentally I did not sublet the garage. That is libel. Kindly retract your silly reply Chloe or I will sue and I totally reject your disingenous wishes for my health, which I am pleased to state is fine.Perhaps your time would be better spent getting the damage to the garage repaired, for which I was not responsible!! It is a health and safety issue and the residents at Leverton Court are much aggrieved.

GoogleIt is such a disappointment that I have to write this review, but the experience myself and my housemate have had with Rex Gooding is in all honesty, disgusting. What we have experienced at first was really positive and our property manager could not have been more helpful. On arriving to the property, we notified Rex Gooding that we did not have a carbon monoxide alarm in January 2021. We have now left the property as of May 2022 and we never received it, despite numerous requests. This is against the law. There are other things that were wrong with the property that took over a year to sort out, that included damaged fencing, doors that would not lock, broken house alarm, the list goes on. The poor communication that the letting agency had with myself and housemate could have had serious consequences and it has also meant that we had to pay for a property we were no longer living in. They then proceeded to charge us for things that did not exist such as us leaving the house in a dirty state, when we spent a week and half cleaning it. On communicating this more senior members of staff of Rex Gooding, it was clear they wanted to pay no attention to what we had to say and ignored us. I could go on and on in ways in which they let us down, but please, do not let through Rex Gooding.

We were sorry to read your review and send our apologies for any miscommunications which have occurred, we are processing many maintenance jobs a day and would never intentionally delay such works.
I understand you were upset over a claim again your deposit at the end of the tenancy as the landlord agreed they wanted the property cleaned.
On the subject of the CO alarm, you have since spoken with our Lettings manager who explained that whilst the current law only requires a CO alarm in a room with a solid fuel burning appliance, we have had a policy of installing these regardless. The inventory which you signed notes the presence of such alarm on the day you moved in hence the confusion. As of October we are pleased to confirm that all properties with a gas or solid fuel burning appliance will require a CO alarm and Landlords will be legally obliged to replace or repair.
Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
