Avoid Renting from Gary (Girish Kumar) Mehra
Gary (Girish Kumar) Mehra is an unprofessional and neglectful landlord. Throughout the tenancy, he showed a blatant disregard for maintaining the property and addressing tenant concerns.
Neglected Repairs: The shower constantly dripped and leaked, with water seeping under the broken shower room floorboards. Despite repeated complaints, he refused to fix the issue, which led to mould growth beneath the floors. His response was dismissive, claiming the shower head “just accumulates water and drips,” even though the issue persisted for weeks without use.
Mould and Hygiene Issues: The property had widespread mould—bathrooms, kitchen, and floors were all affected. Rather than addressing the problem, he argued that "71% of residential properties in the country have mould." It took back-and-forth arguments just to get basic cleaning done.
Pests and Poor Maintenance: The kitchen and bathrooms were in dire need of repair. Broken tiles, peeling surfaces, and pest issues were left unattended, contributing to unsanitary living conditions.
Safety Hazard: The apartment, rented to sharers, had a locking system that allowed someone outside to double-lock the door, leaving those inside unable to exit. Despite raising serious safety concerns multiple times, the landlord refused to change the lock.
Overall, Gary Mehra is dismissive, rude, and unprofessional, making it extremely difficult to live peacefully.
Advice: Avoid signing a long contract with him at all costs. You’ll be stuck dealing with his lack of action, empty promises, and the substandard condition of the property.

Had a terrible experience renting with Gary Mehra in his Putney flat (Kenilworth Court). Constant lies, games and arrogance - everything you don't want in a landlord. Avoid at all costs unless you want cockroaches and mice.
