The service I was provided with was brilliant. Communication from the start with viewings and feedback to the end through the sales chasing process was excellent. Peter was great with dealing with the marketing of the property and Jo was fantastic at chasing the sale through. Highly recommended.

Great Service from Charters Chandlers Ford - Would not hesitate to recommend to friends/family. I specifically dealt with Victoria Richardson and she was amazing. So quick to reply, efficient with everything, and one of the friendliest people I think I've ever met. I first contacted Charters to sell my property because of their reputation of quality service and friendly staff and Victoria personified this reputation perfectly. Of the 6 people who came to view my flat, 5 made offers, showing the quality of their buyers, and we did get asking price for my property. 5 stars!

We have found Hayley to be very professional & commited to finding our forever home in the Alton area. We are constantly updated quickly with any new properties that come on the books in our desired area and she always has suggestions for areas we haven't considered. Should we ever be in a position to selking in the area Hayley would most definitely be our first call.

Dear Julie, many thanks for your review regarding your experience with Charters Alton. It can be difficult sometimes suggesting properties outside of someone's desired location but it is a great way to see what else might fit your requirements. All the very best!

I was very impressed with Jamie Solis, he was very informative about the property's that he showed me. He listened to my requirements in terms of what kind of property I was looking for & when a property came back on the market he was quick to inform so that I could view it; and this is the property that I'm now proceeding with. Thank you Jamie.

We signed up with Charters to sell a property, when I visited the office all of the team were really friendly & supportive. Sarah was great when she came to value the property, having a good understanding of the local market. Hayley was our main contact for viewings & ensured that we were promptly updated with feedback. Between them & Jonathan we have a buyer, thank you.

Ash Mehta was a great and friendly agent at the Winchester Branch who ended up sending me to the development where we eventually reserved our next home. Ash was knowledgeable on the local area and a massive help in finding the right property for us. Would recommend!

Sarah was a great help in finding my next home. She was very on the ball with prompt responses for potential property matches. I ended up with a property through the Winchester Branch in the end, but Sarah was a great and friendly contact to have for Alresford.

Throughout the process Charters have been extremely helpful and easy to work with. Bookings have been arranged with a decent amount of notice and feedback was usually provided in less than 1 working day. Following a successful offer on our property 1.5 months into working with Charters, they continued to add value by helping negotiate our chain deal to ensure all buyers in the process were happy. Out of the 3 houses down my road for sale (each with their own estate agent), we have been on the market to shortice and have had an accepted offer the quickest. The rate was fairly competive, although some were cheaper. That being said its easily negated by the fast sale we recieved. 5 Stars.

Very speedy and efficient service, who were still willing to pull out all the stops when we needed to reschedule a viewing at very short notice. The rental application and formalities have been straightforward so far, and communication has been great. Would recommend Allan and co., thank you!

Shocking. If you are a tenant, do not use this agency. Find another letting agent. Their customer service is absolutely shocking - they are arrogant, unhelpful, they will intrude on your privacy, and will take months to deal with any repair issues that you report to them - (and you will have to follow up about 20-30 times to make sure they actually do something about the problem. Today I reported a gas leak in the house, a National Grid engineer had confirmed the gas leak, and it was making me very ill. I tried multiple times to reach the woman at Charters who is responsible for maintenance, but every time I tried to reach her, I was told she had higher priority problems to deal with, and that she would call me back at some point when she had time. It didn't seem that the person who answered the phone had any idea about how dangerous gas leaks are - and when I asked her, she became very rude, arrogant, and treated me as though I was a low priority nuisance. Planning to hand in my notice today on the property after this experience.They are the WORST agency I have come across. I was actually planning to buy a property this year, and I definitely will avoid any properties listed for sale by Charters.

Utterly reliable, tenacious and professional

Jo worked tirelessly on chasing my chain, which was very problematic. I had a short duration to get everything completed and Jo took on the task fantastically. Despite having quite difficult people to deal with, Jo maintained her professionalism at all times. Her energy in helping to get the completion sorted was key to me enjoying my new home at last.

Fantastic!

My husband & I were first time buyers, being very disheartened & unsure which way to turn we discovered Simon through a recommendation. He was most definitely the light at the end of our tunnel. Not only was he very professional throughout the whole mortgage application process of buying our first property, our sale was processed & we were moved in within six weeks with a brilliant mortgage that met all our needs! His knowledge & loyalty throughout was 10/10, We will defiantly be using Simon again in the future!

I can't thank Gary enough for getting the best valuation for my property and for all his regular communication and personal service during the process. The team were very keen and efficient and helped sell my property within 2 weeks. I am very pleased with the Charters work ethic and have no problems in recommending them to others.

Review of Lee Blackall Charters Estate Agents Alresford

It was a very pleasant experience to spend the hours I did with Lee whilst viewing, and reviewing, properties last month. Lee was friendly, personable and quickly assessed my requirements. He answered my questions about each property honestly, and ventured opinions when asked. I would recommend Lee to anyone looking to find a new home, and also all the members of Charters office in Alresford.

Above and beyond

We got to know Nony and the Charters team in Winchester as part of our 15 month quest to find our 'forever home' in Twyford. Nony is incredibly knowledgeable about the area and local market and works tierlessly for clients and purchasers alike. She really took the time to understand what we were looking for and even though we were selling our property through another agent Nony gave us great advice about the sale of our house. This meant that when Nony called us to give us first viewing on what she was confident would be the perfect house for us we were in a position to proceed immediately.

Jo is who you need to get things done

Throughout the process of buying a home Jo was meticulous in chasing up things that need to be done, and was critical in speeding up the process. As someone who was purchasing a home from Charters, I am aware that she was "working for" the seller rather than the buyer, nevertheless she was always helpful to us, and even chased items on our behalf.
