One star is one too many! the agency supports discriminative practices and top management fail to act professionally and legally. Steer away from this shambles, people!

Larysa, we are sorry that you are unhappy with your experience. We would however like to point out we are a franchise sales office based in Tottenham and separate to the office in question. Should you wish to take your complaint forward you should continue with the department you have been dealing with. We hope you get closure in this matter.

Recently started renting a property through Castles. Josh made sure everything ran smoothly and that everything was completed in the correct time frame for when I wanted to move. Very pleasant experience and will definitely use castles again!

I've decided to post a review as all my emails have been ignored. Absolutely horrible and rude agency. All the estate agents have just been ignoring me constantly from this Agency. I have tryed calling and applying for properties multiple times and all I am being told is somebody will contact me back and nobody ever does as soon as they hear 'Benefits'. I feel like I am constantly being  discriminated as a single mother with a child that has to rely on public funds. I am not second class citizens! I am a humans too and we have a human right to have a decent roof under our heads too without being judged or discriminated. Every person circumstance should be looked at individually, not all tenants on benefits should be put in the same category! Worst Agency I have came across.

Max Whatley at Castles was phenomenal! Incredibly helpful, thoughtful, speedy and professional throughout the process of buying a home. He went out of his way to listen to what we wanted and select the perfect options for us. Then he was super responsive and gave great advice throughout the buying process. It was our first purchase and we were lucky to have someone so committed to providing good service walk us through it. We are incredibly grateful to him for all his help. Can't recommend Castles and Max enough.

Max at Castle's was amazing throughout the process, which can be a pretty stressful at times. But he was always at the end of the phone whenever we had any questions or needed some reassurance and never needed chasing. He worked really hard for us to help us with moving home . Would 100% recommend.

Recently bought my first property through Castles Hackney. Max and David were so helpful and supportive. Max was always happy to chase enquiries and always quick to respond putting any concerns or worries on your mind at rest. After having a bad experience with a different agency it was refreshing to find Max and David so organised and trustworthy; so important for me buying my first home. I would highly recommend their service.

Max at Castles helped me and my husband buy our first home earlier this year. As first time buyers we needed a fair bit of guidance throughout the process! Max was absolutely brilliant for the duration. He was always on hand when we had any questions (however small or silly) and made the process easy and relatively stress free for us. We'll 100% be getting in touch with Max in the future, we can't recommend him enough.

I bought my new home at the end of last year and I am very pleased that it was Castles who sold it to me. Right from walking in through their front door for the first time, the service was excellent. Josh showed me the house and his positive, friendly, can do attitude was evident immediately. They manage to walk the fine between making their customers feel like the process is relaxed and easy going, but at the same time being really on top of any issues that arise and getting them resolved quickly and efficiently. David in the office provided fantastic assistance when those inevitable house buying problems arose. He went above and beyond to make sure the sale was completed as quickly as possible. Thank you David and Josh.

We had a fantastic experience with Castles. We were very impressed by the professionalism and ease of the process with Max. Most other estate agents we contacted in the area simply bombarded us with impersonal emails, whereas Max took the time to call us, select and arrange visits that he thought would suit our needs. We did not feel pressured at any stage, but also felt in very capable hands. Would definitely recommend.

We have just completed on the purchase of our first property, and we are extremely happy with the service Castles  provided. Over the last 12 months we have viewed over a dozen different properties with several different agencies. With other agencies, we often felt  pressured to get it done as quickly as possible, but with Castles we never felt rushed at all. Both Max and Josh were friendly and informative while also giving us space and time to make the most of our viewings. They also never made us feel like we were being a hassle when we went back for second (and third and fourth!) viewings. Max was brilliant at getting an idea of what type of property we were after, and managed to pick out some properties we loved, that we hadn't spotted in our searches. He also never pressured us to view somewhere we didn't like/couldn't afford (something most the other agencies seem to do). We have Max to thank for finding the flat we finally had an offer accepted on- getting us in before it had gone on the market. He really nailed what we were looking for. Throughout the buying process, he was communicate and easy to get hold of. One thing we were hugely grateful of was his honesty when answering questions about the property. If he didn't know the answer, he was open about it and would quickly find out. This was a refreshing change from other experiences elsewhere, where we often felt we were being "blagged". We'd like to thank Max and Castles for all their help in getting our foot on the ladder. We wouldn't hesitate in recommending them.

Sandro was absolutely fantastic during our recent purchase. He went above and beyond in order to make it run as smoothly as possible which was complicated by the Coronavirus pandemic. He took videos and detailed photos for us and responded to our questions within minutes. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

When Sandro says "leave it with me", you should do it blindly. He is a great negotiator and a fantastic human being. The process of finding a new home is a stressful one (especially during a pandemic) but if you are lucky enough to have someone like him working everything out for you... just chill out and let him work his magic. I came from very bad experiences and the lockdown situation didn't help so I was kind of anxious. Sandro took care of everything for me, and he provided me with everything I've asked for. Couldn't believe it. He is the man! Thank you so much Sandro! You are the bright side of the real estate. RiccardoPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I have just used Castles for the second time to sell my latest property. Covid-19 and lockdown took place throughout the sale process. In what could have been a very stressful and painful time, Abraham has been amazing. I have complete trust and faith in Abraham and Castles. I recommend them to everyone I know. They are the best in the area.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

I have just bought my first property via Castles and a huge reason for the purchase actually completing was because of these estate agents. The property purchase was challenging at times (due to the global pandemic, not any individual party), but throughout the hurdles Sandro was knowledgeable, prompt, honest and creative with his solutions. When it comes to selling my property in the hopefully distant future, I will be using Castles without any doubt. Thanks again Sandro and team!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Sandro was fantastic and we can't speak highly enough of how great he was in supporting our purchase,. We couldn't have purchased our property without him. Sandro was always available to assist, at any time, day or night. He was involved in all aspects of our chain, providing proactive solutions to facilitate our purchase and sale, especially in these challenging COVID-19 times. He communicated clearly and explained the process in simple terms. We felt supported through out and Sandro was highly professional and calming. We would highly recommend Castles Crouch End and Sandro in particular. We can't thank you enough in our purchase of our dream home.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Excellent customer service that extends beyond the purchase! It's been a real pleasure to work with this estate agency, the team are always polite and genuinely want to find you the perfect home. My experience with them has spanned over decades and whether or not I have been an active customer, they have always been friendly, responsive and happy to help. I have purposely mentioned they want to find you the perfect home as I have never been forced to view or purchase a property that wasn't right for me. They've listened and seemed to know instinctively what I was looking for and then delivered. Throughout each sale they have been supportive and have made the process seamless and straight forward, which is priceless as it can be a very stressful process. This is why after so many years I still believe their customer service is excellent is exemplary.

Stuart and the team at Castles Edmonton did a great job - keeping us informed throughout the process and giving good advice when some elements of the sale got a bit tricky. Highly recommended!
