We have had an entirely positive experience with Charters in Alresford during our house hunt in the area. Special mention has to go to Gail who has been wonderful - friendly, always professional yet laughing, and a pleasure to liase with. Herself & a colleague went out of their way to arrange things like video tours for us as we were house hunting from another part of the country. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

My partner and I had the best experience with Charters. As first time home buyers we needed all the help we could get! Jonny Beattie was our main point of contact - he was great and was there every step of the way.

Thank you so much for this review Lane. It has been passed on to Jonny and the team.

Charters team - both estate agent and mortgage brokers are very professional and efficient to arrange my viewings and they are really helpful with my mortgage applications, absolute pleasure to work with.

' Excellent estate agent '

' Excellent estate agent ' - Winchester BranchThe Excellent Estate Agent - Kevin, Beccy, Jo Lisa and Sarah including whole team. The whole team of charters went above and beyond our expectations. Sarah gave us the best viewing house experience. Kevin and Beccy helped us to get through the mortgage and getting everything done in time. Kevin, Beccy, Jo and Lisa always immediately returned our calls and made the whole buying process in a professional manner. Expertise, knowledge and experience put us at ease. Every situation that we encountered Charters team rise to the occasion with patience and solutions. I cannot say thank you enough. Highly recommend to anyone in the market to buy or sell their home. The best customer service I’ve ever received.

Grish, thank you for the review 18 months ago! Sorry for the long delay, we have only just come onto Trustpilot as we typically direct customers towards Feefo (the same as Trustpilot but another business) and Google reviews for guidance. Thanks again, Charters.

Charters have been absolutely fantastic with the sale of my late fathers flat in Badger Farm. From day 1, we received a friendly and professional service that we simply cannot fault. I want to thank Aidan in particular who provided us with regular updates and was always on the end of an email or phone if we had any questions. I spoke to other members of the Charters team (Ollie and Jonny for example) on some occassions who were also wonderful. I feel very confident that anyone considering selling or renting out a property with Charters would receive the high level of service that I have received. Highly recommended!

Don’t trust Charters when buying a…

Don’t trust Charters when buying a house because you will be very disappointed as it will probably be Sold before even being put on their site. This happened to us recently. House on site that day SOLD even though phoned on same day mmmm smacks of sharp practices.

Carl · 22 June 2021 · Charters Winchester

Agent replied · 29 July 2023

Dear Carl, there are instances where properties do sell on the day they are listed. This is wonderful news for the homeowner but can be frustrating if you miss out on something you would like to view. We encourage all customers to register with their nearest branch so they receive new property alerts and updates as they happen.

Attended a scheduled viewing only to find on arrival that no access to the property had been arranged. Significant time wasted travelling to and from the property in question. Staff were very apologetic, but on this occasion their professional standards fell well short of that which should be reasonably expected.NegativeQuality, Professionalism

I have dealt with Charters when searching for a property, and their service and professionalism has been remarkable. Always quick to reply with the information I required, quick to call me back or to arrange viewings. And that applies to all the members of the staff with whom I have been in touch. I definitely would use their services again.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Charters (and Eden) had some great properties on and understood what we were looking for. They kept us updated with the market and ensured we were (almost always) first through the door when something they thought we would like came on. And it worked!

What you want from a good estate agent is tenacity and professionalism, I can't fault Charters in Winchester or either score. Selling a property inevitably brings with it anxiety and stress, delays and disappointments but hopefully success in the end. Charters helped guide us through the ups and downs of selling the property and always updated me regularly and, after many months, we finally have reached the finishing line.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

We have had our property , a 1 bed apartment in a good location in Winchester for nearly 4 months . Only 1 viewing ,would not give a reason why the customer did not want to proceed . There has been a further 2 viewings booked but canceled - no reason given why . We were given a " glowing " report regarding Charters SELL properties - They said they would contact us weekly to review progress - nothing BEWARENegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Charters have been attentive, and throughly professional since day one of the purchasing process. We had several properties fall through, and they immediately found us suitable alternatives. Jo Goddard gave continuous updates throughout and was always happy to help, and Sarah Bicknell was also excellent to work with. A+ service, would certainly recommend.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Thank you to Christina and Alexandra of Charters Winchester, they are both very responsive and super helpful throughout the whole process, from viewings to signing the contract and more.

Kathryn (Lettings Negotiator) has been excellent throughout the process. Professional, helpful, clear and very prompt to respond. She made an effort to take early account of our needs and then made every effort to accommodate them. We’re very happy with the service we’ve received from Charters and would highly recommend them. For comparison, I had also contacted another high profile lettings company at the same time, but they have been far slower to follow-up and have had far fewer properties to show us.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We are currently in the process of selling our house and are using Charters in Chandler's Ford as our agents. We have been very happy with the service provided from the initial valuation through to the viewings and eventually the sale. Charters kept us up to date with weekly discussions about the process and status as well as timely feedback on viewings that had taken place. We have been especially pleased with the way they have operated as a team and always seemed to be on the ball, irrespective of which team member we dealt with.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
