I had a great experience with Tucker Gardner Cambridge, thanks to Mr. Manjula Kanakaratne. The whole letting process was smooth and fast. Manjula was very professional and took care of all the arrangements quickly and efficiently. His clear communication and attention to detail made everything easy and stress-free. I highly recommend Tucker Gardner, especially Manjula, for anyone looking for a reliable letting agent in Cambridge.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Emily (and Lisa) as my sales negotiator during the process of purchasing a home, and I can confidently say she is the best negotiator I've ever met. Emily is incredibly dedicated, enthusiastic, and an excellent communicator. She has a deep sense of empathy, and after carefully analyzing my needs, she recommended homes that were perfectly suited to me. I was truly touched by this, as it felt like she was really standing in my shoes, doing her best to find the most suitable property for me. In the end, she helped me secure the offer on my dream home! Everything was beyond amazing. Thank you, Emily—you're an absolutely outstanding negotiator. Wishing you all the best in your career!

I have been renting in Cambridge for the past 6 years. Tucker Gardner has been the worst letting agency we have ever dealt with.
We terminated our contract 1 month early with 1.5 month notice (minimum notice is 1 month. Landlord initially offered to renew the contract. Before we could reply he cancelled the offer. We were told he entered into Tucker Gardner office screaming that he didn't like the sunflowers and plants we put on our balcony, which the whole neighbourhood loved: the contract itself stated "no furniture on the border of the terrace").
Now, after having handed back the keys, we are told we are still liable for the last month of rent and bills!
Upon asking for clarification, it seems they had not yet "actioned" (exact words) our departure in their system. A mistake on their end, which the agent should pay for, not us as tenants or the landlord.
They reply insisting they can't guarantee our deposit back yet, and they need to talk to the landlord first and other members in their team.
They cannot even guarantee they will reach a decision about our deposit within 10 working days, as stated on the contract.
Will keep you updated!

The Tucker Gardner team at Cambridge have made our house search experience a great one. Lee and the rest of the team have been excellent. The process from finding a flat that we like on the website, booking the viewing appointments, the assistance with viewings, and putting our offer forward, all went remarkably well. The staff are helpful and well informed about the property and the area. Excellent work.

We want to recognize Mr Lee Jones of Tucker Gardner. He is the estate agent who showed us the property in Cambridge we are now trying to purchase.
Lee has a remarkable ability to put prospective buyers at ease with his friendliness and sense of humour. Most important, he was extraordinarily detailed in his answers to our incessant questions about the property, particularly during our second viewing. Head and shoulders above every other estate agent we dealt with in our rather extensive search for a property in Cambridge.

Worst estate company in Cambridgeshire. I bought few properties around Ely, Newmarket, Soham and Cambridge and I dealt with many different agencies I must say this is THE worst company to deal with.
Nobody showed up for the viewing appointment, called office asked us to wait for a call back, never did. 2nd appointment was late (believe the gentleman name is IAN), blamed traffic (we drove here too). no follow up calls we had to ring the office and chase our self.
Office kicking ball around and keep telling lies, nobody never called us as promised. very unhappy customer. this company should not allowed to trade and if you want to sell or buy your property please avoid this company at all cost what so ever. remember this.

I recently had an incredibly disappointing experience with the deposit specialist at Tucker Gardner. As a tenant, I believe effective communication is essential for a smooth and satisfactory rental experience, but my interactions regarding my deposit were far from acceptable.
From the beginning, the deposit specialist, demonstrated a complete lack of willingness to communicate. Despite multiple attempts to address my concerns and clarify issues regarding my deposit, I was met with silence and unresponsiveness. This lack of communication not only wasted valuable time but also caused unnecessary stress and frustration.
I reached out through various channels—emails, phone calls, but my attempts were largely ignored. On the rare occasion that I did receive a response, it was either dismissive or failed to address my concerns adequately. This level of service is far below what any tenant should have to endure.
As a result of this poor communication, I am left feeling deeply disappointed and let down by the service provided.

Booked an open house viewing for 12pm, after more than one hour waiting, still nobody shows, called the office, the gentleman said will find out and call me back, didn’t received a call back, after that, no body answer the phone anymore! Avoid! Terrible service! Wasting time! Very unprofessional!

Awful. Don't answer their phones or call you back. Frustrating to work with. Would not sell my house with them and still trying to get a viewing.
Seriously, it's been 2 days and can't even get hold of someone to book a viewing. Left 2 voicemails and several calls.

Had this agency for 1.5ish years and honestly, can't say I'd recommend them to anyone.
Right from the get-go, it felt like trouble was brewing. But hey, when you're desperate for a somewhat affordable spot in Cambridge, you kinda just roll with it, right?
Getting them to send over the tenancy agreement was like pulling teeth, and don't even get me started on trying to get anything changed. It always felt like they were doing me a massive favor, not like I was a customer or anything.
There was this one time they scheduled an inspection two weeks out. I took the day off work and everything, but guess what? They claimed they forgot to add it to the calendar. Said they'd reschedule, but I never heard back.
And oh, the deposit saga when I moved out? A masterpiece. Took forever to get any sort of update, with them always saying they're waiting on the landlord. Ended up having to go through the hassle of raising a dispute, and luckily, I got my full deposit back—three whole months later.
Finding a decent agency in Cambridge is tough, but it feels like there’s zero push for Tucker Gardner to step up their game. If you end up having to deal with them, good luck—you're gonna need it.

I am thrilled to share my wonderful experience working with Manjula Kanakaratne at Tucker Gardner. From the moment I enlisted their services to find a rental property, Manjula exhibited the utmost professionalism and dedication.
Manjula's expertise ensured that every step of the process, from accounts to form filling, was executed seamlessly, alleviating any stress or confusion on my end. His attention to detail and efficiency were remarkable, making the entire journey a breeze.
What truly stood out to me was Manjula's unwavering support and commitment to ensuring my satisfaction. He promptly addressed any concerns and provided valuable guidance, making me feel confident in my decisions.
Now that I am comfortably settled into my new home, I can confidently say that Manjula's assistance was instrumental in achieving this. I wholeheartedly recommend Manjula Kanakaratne and Tucker Gardner to anyone seeking a top-notch home renting experience. Thank you, Manjula, for your exceptional service!

This review is mainly for Megan Minet as she helped in getting the house at the beginning. while moving out, I was transferred to another agent in Tucker Gardner who made it chaotic as hell for about 3 weeks or more, with no solution whatsoever. I called to speak to someone else as I wasn’t getting the help needed. Megan Minet was kind enough to pick the case up and got everything sorted in a week. Megan was very helpful and made everything easy. Thank you Megan, your customer relation/service is 100%.

I rented a flat through tucker Gardner. After moving in I discovered there was a bad leak in the roof and water was dripping in through a light fitting. This caused terrible damp in the ceiling and posed an electrical fire risk. When I reported the problem they sent someone round to inspect it who agreed this was an issue but nothing was ever done to repair the roof. I don’t think it is allowed to rent out properties in this condition however I can see it is currently advertised on their website. The indifference of tucker Gardner to this problem struck me as highly unprofessional, as a tenant I would avoid renting through this agency
[Update] : After posting this review Tucker Gardner contacted me to try and address my concerns, however they clearly didn't take my points seriously. The flat has since been rented out to someone who I'd assume hasn't been made aware of the leak. They took a very long time to return my deposit and are claiming unreasonable deductions from it, I suspect this is standard practise for them.

Their system might as well be loose pieces of paper floating around the office as far as I know since finding any information seems impossible. They forwarded my inquiry to a different property than the one I was interested in. How is that even possible?

We have moved quite a lot and have dealt with several estate agents over the last 10 years. Tucker Gardner are by far and away the worst. They are the absolute pits. They cannot do even the most basic things properly. Literally nothing. Every interaction we had with them throughout our tenancy was needlessly painful. The have a completely rotten culture and are a truly terrible company. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
Update - unsurprisingly trying to get our deposit back from Tucker Gardner has been a nightmare. NEVER EVER MOVE INTO A PROPERTY MANAGED BY TUCKER GARDNER.
Life is too short.

I was initially sceptical about this agency after reading the reviews. However, my experience with TG Cambridge was mostly positive. In the beginning, there were some minor problems, such as the wrong keys from some doors were provided, and the apartment was not perfectly cleaned. However, the issues were mostly resolved in a matter of days. Megan and Millie were particularly helpful and very polite throughout the process. The welcome pack for the tenants was a nice surprise. Billie, the property manager, was very helpful with the issues I had during my tenancy. I moved out two months ago, and the move out process was quite smooth as well. The terminations team were flexible and quick to slightly extend my tenancy twice, the viewings were organised in the convenient for me time and the property was inspected quickly after the vacation, with the whole deposit returned. Having had experience with two other agencies in Cambridge, this one was rather smooth.

Very unprofessional team ! After I have been not accepted for a house we applied .. I have to go keep chasing and asking when I will get my holding deposit back ! I have emailed plus called several times … to start with I should have been informed by the agents about the process of getting the deposit back which not happened till I emailed and asked . First I been told can take up to few days than I been told can take up to 7 days … I have called twice just to check if is everything okay as the money is not back to my account and I’m in a very urgent house move and really need the money back ! They said it’s all has been processed I don’t need to worry just after a week now and still no money on my account to be told that the hasn’t been processed at all because issue from their side …. So if I already called to ask to be checked if everything is okay how it’s possible that now I’m hearing few days later my money still hasn’t even been processed? And getting once again can take up to 7 days again …. ? Don’t need to say I didn’t even get any sort of apology what’s so ever ! Very unprofessional team with 0 care ! Even with applying for the house was a lol … Megan the agent who dealt with it after we applied gone off sick came back for a few days and gone straight for holiday clearly not sorting out what she should have done as her job . Jokes ! Won’t ever be back here for sure

As a landlord I have no stars to offer Tucker Gardner itself since it became part of Countrywide. I've had some prolonged and dreadful experiences over the the past few years and no access to people who could and were willing to resolve them.
On the other hand there are some excellent people working for Tucker Gardner, who have been extraordinarily helpful and efficient. Among them are the two most recent managers of my property, Beth Finbow-Miller and currently Shirley Cook. And I would like to publicly thank and praise them for their intelligence and prompt effective action in sorting out problems. out. 5 stars

My experience with Tucker Gardner has been extremely disappointing. Despite numerous attempts to communicate and seek updates on the return of my deposit, the agency has shown a complete disregard for their contractual responsibilities.
Their communication has been abysmal, with no response or accountability for their actions. When contacted by phone, they have failed to provide any meaningful assistance and instead deflect responsibility onto the owner. This lack of professionalism and failure to uphold their obligations as a managing agency is simply unacceptable.
I urge potential tenants to reconsider engaging with Tucker Gardner. Their poor communication, lack of accountability, and failure to fulfill their contractual obligations make them an unreliable choice. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere for a more another agency that respects their responsibilities.

I rented an apartment at Tucker Gardner and it was a great experience. This is my first time renting an apartment in Cambridge. I really want to give a special thanks to Manjula Kanakaratne and the property manager, Billie White-Fensom. They are really caring. They helped me solve a lot of problems.
When I was overseas, Manjula Kanakaratne made everything very easy and much less stressful than it should be. When I emailed him, he responded very quickly. If he needs my reply urgently, he will take the initiative to call me.
When I moved in, Billie White-Fensom helped me with many problems; her service was very professional, efficient and caring. She reads my email inquiry carefully and responds promptly.
The Tucker Gardner service team also provides comprehensive management services, which makes my life easier.
I highly recommend Tucker Gardner, Manjula Kanakaratne and Billie White-Fensom. They will be my first choice for house hunting in the future, and I am very lucky to have met them.

This review is being written especially to appreciate the swiftness and helpful attitude of Billie White-Fensom, Property Manager in connection with the resolution of a problem related to the non-payment of an electricity bill [by a tenant, as may indeed happen] related to a small property of mine in Cambridge. Within minutes of my email sent from Turkey, her reply came back like an arrow. Over the years, I have come to expect cooperation, problem-solving and promptness from Messrs Tucker Gardners, and disappointment has not come my way!

I rented out a Cambridge property through the Cambridge office (Hills Road) for 12 years until last month. I had zero problems in that time. The rent was received in full on time every month, they sorted out numerous problems connected with the freeholders, dealing with the tenant, improvements to the fabric, and arranging the eventual transfer of ownership, and winding things up - all politely, informatively and swiftly, and mostly proactively. The problems reported by others here came as a surprise to me and are not reflected in any of my experience.

After a slightly shakey start, when communication could have been better, I was very pleased with the service of Tucker Gardner in the sale of my property. I was particularly impressed that Niall went far above and beyond by driving to Manchester from Cambridge to deliver papers which were lost in the post and I felt Ben, in particular, was very good at keeping me updated. There were points when it felt as if the chain might collapse but the combined efforts of Tucker Gardner, my solicitor and the estate agents the other end, have led to me having moved successfully.

Great experience with Tucker Gardner buying our first home. Made everything very straightforward and much less stressful than it could have been. Ben Nyborg guided us through whole process from viewings to handover of keys - always very approachable and quick to respond helpfully to queries. Would wholeheartedly recommend.

I gave my requirement to Manjula only couple of weeks ago, and he understood it perfectly and his 1st option given was perfect for us. Thereafter, he took the trouble of guiding us through the process, and helped in many points of the process. He even took the trouble of checking the status of HomeLet to keep us updated about the process.
He closed the entire process made the apartment available just in 7-10 days. Finally, he even made arrangements to get a quote for a slight plumbing alteration.
Fantastic teamwork lead by Manjula. Well Done and keep it up.
Thank you,

Richard and the lettings team have recently let a flat for me in Fulbourn and they have been excellent. They achieved top rent for my flat and it was let quickly and correspondence was great. They really went above and beyond. Would very much recommend!

Tucker Gardner Lettings is probably the best and most professional letting agent in Cambridge. I recently rented a house through a lettings negotiator at Tucker named Manjula Kanakaratne. I was so lucky to meet him as he was extremely supportive from the start when he showed the property virtually to when he communicated about contracts and finally handed over the property after thorough inspections and repairs. Before meeting them, I talked to almost all other letting agents in Cambridge and sadly they were not responsive and the process was hard as I was moving with family. But goodness me, Tucker is absolutely at another level compared to other agents. I would highly recommend them and specially Manjula who is such a lovely person to work with.

We bought our first house in summer through Tucker Gardner and found the agent, Ben, very helpful. Communication was excellent and he was always on hand to answer any questions or arrange extra viewings for us.

My tenant of 13 years suddenly handed in his notice because of problem neighbours in the small block of 6 studio flats. It sounded very bad – tenants of another flat had already given up and left. I could not do anything from abroad, and the management company for the block said it was not their problem. Richard from Tucker Gardner located the owner of the flat with the bad tenants, sorted the problem out, we did some renovations to my flat, peace and quiet returned to the block, and someone is glad to rent the flat again. I am extremely grateful to Richard for the effort he put in to sorting the situation out!

I've dealt with Ben Haynes in order to purchase a flat in Cambridge. Being new to the house English market, Ben helped me all along, understanding the process and touching base with the seller and me regularly. They also arranged a "bridge" rental of the same property, which was also very handy. Great costumer service overall!

Recently purchased a property through Tucker Gardner and dealt primarily with Chloe Compton. Towards the end of the purchase things got a but slow and Chloe chased the vendors, and both solicitors on an almost daily basis to make sure that things moved as quickly as possible.

Took 3 full months to return our deposit, even when both tenants and landlord were in agreement it should be returned in full, and actively chasing up. Couldn't have been less helpful if they'd been deliberately obstructive. Not worth dealing with.

Had absolutely the worst experience renting with Tucker Gardner. While renting, anytime we needed help with the property, we had to wait for weeks on end to get someone round the property to get things fixed. And when we had to leave, it was an absolute nightmare - they kept contradicting themselves with all their rules, any request we made was ignored, they changed us more rent than were supposed to, and the best part - they took money out of our deposit because there was a gap between us moving out and the new tenant. Strongly don't recommend them!

I want to use this medium to thank and appreciate the staff and management of Tucker Gardner Sales and Letting Agents Cambridge especially Rebika Hye for their effort in aiding me get an apartment in Cambridge. I have had several viewings with other agents but the day I went for viewing with Tucker Gardner, I knew I was gonna get the accommodation. Their follow up calls and emails during and after the documentation period made the elusive task of getting an accommodation easy. I highly recommend them to you now and in the future. cheerz!

Could not be more thankful for our agent Richard Elby in helping us find a place to call home. We almost gave up after dealing with multiple letting agencies that resulted in continuous let downs. Richard was the first (and only) agent to treat us like clients by providing a personalized experience to include recommendations and notifying us with immediate listings that fit our needs. I am confident that we would not have found a place without him. Thanks Richard!

Are you selling a house? Think about it, you'll only sell a property a few times in your life. Invest in the process, do the viewings yourself and get an online agency to book appointments and take bids. Nobody can sell a house better than the person who's lived there. Agents have little incentive to do more than the bare minimum to sell. An extra sale is much more profitable than a higher sale price or commission if you think about it. These guys are average at best, and probably hindered the process if anything. Don't go with a big agency, do it yourself.

Had a simple question of whether subletting would be available. Had a guy literally giggly laughing and say "No we don't do that... hehe" in a dismissive and degrading tone. Not gonna deal with these guys again. Yuck.

My brief 8 months renting through Tucker Gardner in summary, is that I would of had a marginally better experience if I was to insert a needle in my eye...from the initial viewings and the remarks the 'Agent' had for the previous tenants were borderline criminal, maintenance team couldn't manage to run a bath let alone a telephone/email and forget deposit, how about playing 'how badly do you really want your money-back game?!' (4 months by the way for those playing along, and countless chasing emails and calls). TG I would not recommend you and nor shall I ever use you (or Countrywide - the parent company) again, I bid you good luck for the future.

I found the letting agent herself to be extremely friendly, helpful and efficient. However I am becoming greatly concerned after reading all the reviews reporting unacceptably late return of deposits, as this is my current experience. I have now waited 1 month for the return of my £1211 deposit, having spent over 20 hours submitting photos and responding to irrelevant “issues/damage “ on the check out document such as “non working light bulb” and “abandoned frog statue” (a tiny tin figurine that was in the garden when we moved in….) and “rubbish by the shed” - a Tucker Gardner To Let sign and the Landord’s spare paving! All after I damaged absolutely nothing and even paid £420 for a professional End of Tenancy clean that left the property much cleaner when we vacated than it was when we moved in! It’s definitely time Letting Agencies realised that their Landlord clients don’t understand the law on Deposits and the vital difference between Damage and Fair wear and Tear! The poor Tenants are always the last to be considered and the ones who have to keep borrowing money for their next deposit whilst awaiting the return of the one they paid in good faith 12 months previously. The clue’s in the name - It’s a Deposit - not a savings account for Landlords to dip into in order to do up their properties in between Tenants! Anyhow - wish me luck and here’s hoping I don’t incur yet another month’s overdraft fees before they get around to returning my money ????
Quick update - I finally got my Deposit back! It took 6 weeks and endless emailing of photos etc to the Deposit Holding Company, but the Agent at Tucker Gardner ultimately insisted to the Landlord that they return it - so many thanks to her. My faith is restored in human nature!????

Despite numerous emails to the company from the tenants and myself as the property owner, regarding maintenance issues, we have had no replies. Some of the maintenance issues have been serious, one including an electrical fault (obviously dangerous) and another concerning damp (obviously harmful to health). I am extremely disappointed with this company and feel embarrassed that my tenants are having such a bad experience of renting my house.

I believe that this company is breaking many rules in many ways. Our deposit took 4 months to be returned after much fighting, they quoted us a bogus “missing rent” fee which they claimed took our debts higher than our deposit amount. This all caused extreme distress in an already difficult time.
They messed us around with electrical bills, asking us to sign up to a bill paying service, which we did. Money was never taken from us, so we contacted them and were informed that “Oh, you pay us directly.”
We were informed that to pay our bills, we had to make payments to them over the phone, and despite asking multiple times for a receipt, an invoice, ANYTHING to show that our payments were legitimate, they refused to comply.
Even when we were chasing up the deposit money, they couldn’t prove to the deposit holding scheme that we owed anything apart from the cleaning fee, which we were happy to pay - unfortunately this is usually standard rental practice to pay a large cleaning sum
We were thankfully found in the right by the deposit holding scheme, and we never had to pay the bogus “missing rent” that we didn’t owe. We paid half the electrical bill they were requesting, as they could not come up with any paperwork for it, but we owed some unknown amount for the quarter, which we were perfectly happy to pay if they could prove to us it was legitimate.
I recommend that you don’t count on getting the deposit back soon, factor in to be waiting months for it. Keep all of your deposit paperwork and your lease, and know your rights as a tenant! I’d recommend joining a tenant’s union if you need some extra support, this seems to be something this agency does to many tenants.
They never answered phones, were very slow with answering emails. Our shower broke during our last week in the property, and they failed to get it fixed in time for the new tenant. The new tenant was an acquaintance of mine, and they texted in confusion when the shower would not work. TG failed to inform them of a broken object upon move in, and TG were still trying to contact US about repairs weeks later, despite knowing we were no longer in the property.
Worth mentioning, we had an extremely positive experience with Vinnie. He was kind and understanding, and the only member of the process who was actually sympathetic to our reason for moving out - my mother passed during the Covid pandemic. Vinnie, you deserve better than TG ????????
Be smart tenants, know your rights.
