Sophie Pickering to the Rescue

I had been searching for accommodation for over a month with no success when I reached out to Charters Estate Agency in Southampton. I was fortunate enough to be assisted by Sophie Pickering, who was incredibly friendly and supportive from the start. She listened to my requirements and went above and beyond to find the perfect place for me. Her dedication and proactive approach made the whole process seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Charters Estate Agency for their exceptional service.

Outstanding experience with Charters

Paul Stephens was the most positive agent that we met when bringing our house to market. He impressed us with both his knowledge of the area, appreciation of our property and the local market that backed up his valuation.Paul proposed to introduce prospective buyers, rather than an open market approach, and we quickly agreed a sale, so were delighted that he'd delivered as promised!Jo Goddard then took over to liaise with ourselves and each party's solicitors during the ensuing weeks, ensuring regular updates and developing timelines up to the exchange of contracts.Jo has been a great support and communicator during this time and always attentive to any queries or issues that came up along the way.Many thanks to Paul and Jo for what they have achieved for us.

We were extremely pleased with the service we received from Charters Estate Agents. A big thank you to Kirstie Stone who went above and beyond to find us the right property for us. She was always at the end of the phone/an email if we had any questions, and she always responded promptly and with helpful answers. We are delighted to have found a property with Charters and look forward to continuing to work with them in the future.

Sarah Bainbridge is a lifesaver!

Sarah Bainbridge of Charters Estate Agents was a lifesaver! As a foreign academic researcher who needed to live in England for the school year, it was proving quite difficult to find housing and a landlord who would accept a 10 month lease, if possible. Most wanted all of the 10 months of rent up front, or 12 months of rent and no exceptions. Sarah communicated frequently with me, and when she heard about a situation that could meet my needs, she reached out and made it happen. Most other letting agencies just said, "good luck; the market is tough." Her staff have continued to help me jump through the many hoops to satisfy government requirements, share codes, and the like, and they did not insist on all 10 months of rent up front. Thank you Sarah and Charters!

Been with this agency from 2020 up until a few weeks ago. They started out as pure move and I’ve had nothing but excellent services from them, especially Peter, who goes above and beyond to resolve any issues may they arise. Both friendly and professional and I’ve never had any problems the whole 4 years I’ve rented from this agency. Would highly recommend this company to anyone. Very fair, understanding and trustworthy. Lovely people and lovely company to be involved with.

Excellent service as always from all the team at Charters, Farnham. Jacqui and Kirstie on the front line, Katie and her team on preparing the marketing, Cheryl and her team on pre-tenancy and our own property manager Kimberley always answer email and phone queries quickly and efficiently. All things considered a very smooth and professional company to deal with.
