Nony's unerring support meant that we purchased our perfect property through Charters. She kept in touch with warmth, diligence and a clear desire to find us a home. We can't recommend her highly enoughPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We are currently in the process of buying and selling our home via Charters, Winchester. We purchased our current home via them in 2012 and did not hesitate to instruct them this time around, which was absolutely the right choice. Ollie and his team have provided us with a first class service. Everyone at Charters is clearly passionate about what they do and are a delight to work with. We can not recommend them highly enough.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Such a delightful, friendly introduction to Charters from Sarah followed by a very helpful chat with Kevin their mortgage advisor - It felt as though I was talking to an old friend with our absolute best interests in mind. Myself and my partner are first time buyers which can be an unsure confusing time but we both left feeling very confident with our next plans and have been smiling from ear to ear all day with excitement!! Thank you so much can't wait for our next meeting!!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We instructed Charters to sell our property as they made a great impression when we were looking for our new home. Echoing some of the previous reviewers, the whole team was extremely professional, proactive and efficient whilst providing a friendly service. Matt was extremely accommodating arranging several viewings at short notice on the house we eventually bought, and Henry kept us updated at all times with the sale of our property which was agreed within a couple of weeks. The marketing, especially the photography really presented our house in the best possible light. During the sale and purchase, Stephen handled all the communication between buyers, sellers and solicitors, providing regular updates on the process. Nothing was too much trouble and we really felt that the whole process was extremely well managed. On the day of completion, Emily even came over in the evening with additional keys that the vendor had found for the windows which really was above and beyond what we would have expected. Additionally, I should mention that their in-house mortgage broker Mark was truly excellent in all regards, securing a mortgage with a great rate for us which saved us the hassle of dealing with the lenders directly.

Once again I have become the most appreciative recipient of the magnificent commitment that Tracey Docherty the Charters Lettings Manager provides. For she is always way-out-in-front on all matters, such that everything she does is performed in the most exacting of fashions; her organisational skills are truly amazing, affording her the ability to convey such a wonderful aura of gentle dynamism; and this exceptional aspect of her character, commingled with her utmost sincerity and vibrant persona makes her such an absolute joy to be associated with.

I have purchased 2 properties now from Ashley directly, the first in 2018 and the other in early 2020. Ashley is honest, friendly, thorough, and handles enquiries professionally and diligently, which is why I specifically asked for him again in relation to the 2nd property. I do feel that I am in safe hands with Ashely and he has my trust. Ashely has made the process of buying my properties straightforward, smooth and pleasant. My rating of 5/5 is is reflective of Ashley’s excellent attitude and commitment to getting the job done. Ashley is one in a million!

I called Charters this morning to ask for advice on a probate property, and spoke to Robert. He could not have been more helpful, and his knowledge of the area in question, and the current housing market in general was impressive. I could not have found better advice and feel very fortunate that my first call was to Rob. Five stars. Thank you, you made a difficult time in our life that much easier.

We are going through the process of letting our property which at this uncertain time is not the easiest task to ask an estate agent, however both Sam and Rob have been extremely helpful reassuring and extremely professional dealing with the matter in total accordance with the governments guidelines. We have total confidence in them and are most grateful for their guidance.

We couldn't be happier with the service we had from Laura and team and would recommend them in a heartbeat. After a combined 15 months on the market with two other Farnham agents and not a single offer, Charters came in and saved the day. Great photos, great write-up, and ads on RightMove and elsewhere that consistently got above average engagement (we know because we had personalised marketing stats shared with us regularly). Rather than just getting anyone and everyone sent round to bump up the viewing numbers, each and every prospective buyer was credible and had some genuine interest. Before long we had three serious offers. After a successful negotiation, supported by the team, we found out about Charters' ace up their sleeve: a dedicated 'sales progressor'. This meant that with what was a really, really challenging chain, we had a single person responsible for banging heads together and getting things over the line. Absolutely invaluable. We're now in the early days of working with them to let our property out, and are again getting the same great service. Downing Street seems to be where Farnham's serious estate agents put themselves, and having tried not one but three we can say with some level of confidence that Charters is your best bet.

Maintain the appearance or professionalism without executing as such. In initial meetings they over-estimated the value of my property to secure my custom but failed to secure close to it. Despite numerous issues with the service provided the worst was when I was met by someone, unaffiliated with the agents, who had been given the keys and allowed to enter my property unsupervised and without informing me. When I raised that I was unhappy I was told that I was being unreasonable by Charters. I would not use them again and would advise all friends as such also.

Adam, we cannot find any record of you on our system, for Farnham or any of our other offices. Can you please contact me directly, marketing@chartersestateagents.co.uk, so I can understand where this review has come from. In the meantime, it has been reported to Google as not relevant/inappropriate and we have asked them to take this review down. I look forward to hearing from you, Simon.

The team at Charters we’re so efficient at finding our new home. We took a long time in a very slow market to sell our house through another agent and lost out on a lot of nice properties. Edward never lost enthusiasm, pace or his sense of humour and eventually we sold and he was right on the mark to find us our brilliant new home. I can’t recommend the company and Edward enough. He should instantly be elevated to the rank of CEO and a salary increase to suit. Thank you so much for your help.

I would greatly recommend Charters to anyone who is looking to purchase a property in the Alton area. Our main dealings have been with Edward Kendall who is always so cheerful, helpful and thoroughly professional. He followed up any queries we had and kept us in the picture at all times. The whole Charters team are very supportive and we would also like to thank Jonathan for his continued support and interest in our purchase.
