Charters made the whole renting process so much easier for us. They have been a huge help throughout and made sure to meet our needs at all levels. Their responsiveness is excellent and we are really grateful for Cheryl’s and her team’s help for finding our perfect property.

I have had a brilliant experience with Sarah at Charters. She has been informative, helpful and kind whilst we have been going through a stressful time. She has always been at the end of the phone ready to assist and support me and I am truly grateful for her help. Thank you!

Great service from Cameron - felt like he was available 24 x 7 to help us when our buyer pulled out. He is an excellent ambassador for Charters. All now back on track thanks to Cameron and the very responsive team from Charters.

Charters have been excellent from start to finish in helping me find a family home at very short notice and in very stressful circumstances. Amy Henshaw in particular was very helpful and proactive in finding us the perfect property and went above and beyond the call of duty. I would definitely recommend, and will be using them again in the future.

Having tried a few letting agents, I did find Charters to be particularly good. They answered their phones, responded to emails and messages promptly, and were always courteous and professional. Sarah Bainbridge in particular, has been very helpful. Not only did she find the property that suited my requirements, but saw everything through very swiftly and efficiently.

After a year of searching for my perfect first house, I'm finally moving! Kevin hogan was my mortgage advisor who helped and guided me through every step of the way. Excellent customer service and always gave his honest opinion on what my options were and which would be best suited for me. Can't speak highly enough of him and will be recommending him to everyone i know!

I have rented my apartment for the past 6 years through the Lettings team at Charters, Winchester as an overseas landlord and I cannot recommend Tracey and team highly enough for the excellent service that they have provided. We have had great tenants and the find and check-out services are first class. Thank you team.

Very pleased with the service from Cameron helping us to find a house. Those suggested were most appropriate and mostly the sort we were looking for, and not just a mailing list. This service would be the kind we would hope for if were selling our house, much better than most estate agents.

Many thanks to Charters, and especially to Cameron in the Winchester branch, who has been really helpful throughout the process of buying our first home! Cameron was always friendly, quick to respond and actively searched for our ideal property. He regularly checked in with us and answered all questions we had during our search. Thanks again Cameron and all at Charters!

We have been searching to secure a rental property since the beginning of Jan 2022. During this search I have dealt with numerous Lettings Agents. There were only two which went beyond my expectations and I felt worked consistently in assisting me, in what is an extremely competitive market. I found Sarah to be extremely responsive and dedicated to her role. She is a credit to Charters as was the professional services of Christina, when we conducted our viewings. Thank you to you both for your help during what has been a stressful period for us both. I will most certainly return to Charters; specifically Sarah, should I require your services in the future. Wish you all the best.and thank you again :)

Charters has a very professional teams, the staff who accompanied us on the viewing are very knowledgeable, giving suggestions what can be possible improve the property. Although we didn't purchase the house from them due to we have particular area we would like to be but the staff had shown us alternative area with pleasant manner especially Cameron , he is willing to listen and try to find properties we require. He always follow up and return the call as soon as possible. He even congratulate and wish us well when we purchase the house from the other estate agent and make us welcome to come back if our purchase is unsuccessful. Many thanks to you all who involve with our viewing.

We sold and bought through Charters and found them to be fantastic. Highly professional, knowledgable, patient(!) and always available to talk. They did a brilliant job of selling our property, arranging many viewings and attracting a great number of offers. They would always offer great advice when we were searching for a new property and got to know our requirements quite quickly. I would highly recommend Charters. Special thanks to Peter, Jo, Eden, Elle & Cameron.

Sarah (and Gary) at Charters went several extra miles to find a rental property suitable for my family. This was made more complicated by having to find a property that could accommodate one of my sons who is in a wheelchair. Sarah worked tirelessly on the case , never gave up on the challenge and together we saw many houses and measured many bathrooms and doorways for fit with the wheelchair ! I would wholeheartedly recommend the Charters team for providing a truly bespoke, friendly and effective service.

We exchanged contracts this lunchtime. Ever since our first contact with them, everyone at Charters has been friendly and really helpful. The process of selling and buying houses can be really stressful, but Charters was supportive throughout, answering any questions we had, being really patient and always allowing us to be control. And communication was first-class -- we always knew exactly where we were. Thank you.

The customer service I received from Charters in Winchester was absolutely exemplary! Sarah Bainbridge from their lettings team couldn't have worked any harder to find us the perfect property. She really took the time to understand our requirements and her efficiency and speediness of response were outstanding - even keeping in contact on Sundays!

Brilliant from start to finish. Regular updates each week with a progress report on viewings and then our subsequent sale. From the very beginning Peter was so positive and gave us the confidence to go ahead with Charters Winchester. We didn’t bother asking anyone else as first impression was so encouraging. An offer on our property was accepted within 3 months and the after sales service with Jo continued with the professional knowledge we’d become accustomed to. Totally efficient, once again, weekly updates liaising with both solicitors acting for the sale. Both my husband and I can’t thank them enough for a seamless, professional and friendly service from the first day to the last. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to sell in Winchester.

I highly recommend the lettings team at Charters Estate Agents in Winchester, they have been managing my property for some time and the service has been outstanding. The team works very hard to market the property well and has kept me up to date regarding viewings and feedback. Communication is consistently excellent in general from all members of the team and everyone I have spoken to is always friendly and professional. Sarah in particular goes above and beyond to help out! Any and all minor issues that have arisen during tenancies have been swiftly resolved. Arranging necessary updates and services to the property has been stress free despite my living in another part of the country. It's very reassuring to know that my tenants and property are in such good hands.

Very smooth, quick and easy process with Charters Estate Agents to re-let our property in Hampshire. Just 4.5 weeks from advertising to completion of all tenancy agreements. Thank you to Leslie Yonta and Liam Harris at Head Office and all the team at the Alton branch. I would highly recommend Charters.

My wife and I have been looking for a few months and we've viewed plenty of properties. Jack Moore at Charters is by far the best agent, excellent, an asset to your organisation. He facilitates a visit professionally, is calm and knowledgeable, and not too salesy. He listens and appears genuinely interested, we feel relaxed in his company. Thank you.
