I am leaving a review about Edward Kendall - estate agent of the Alresford branch of Charters. Firstly may I say what a charming young man he is and secondly how professional and knowledgeable he is. Edward's attention to detail is second to none. I would highly recommend him to any purchasers looking for a new home.

Dear Zoe, thank you for reviewing Charters Alresford, and in particular Edward. We will make sure this feedback is passed on to him and, again, thank you for taking the time to review your experience.

Sarah at Charters Alresford was a really helpful, friendly and professional estate agent. She did not push us with our decision making or hassle us for feedback, as we experienced with other estate agents during the house buying process. As first time-buyers, we found her very knowledgeable and efficient at answering our questions. Charters Alresford were always available to speak to on the phone and everyone we encountered there gave us a highly personable and professional service. They honoured our requests when we put our offer forward and have been quick to process our purchase so far.

Absolutely fantastic service from the start with Charters! In particular Sarah at the Arlesford branch - she has kept us in the loop throughout our whole search! She is such a friendly yet professional member of the team and put our search into motion, even pointing us to useful contacts at the Winchester branch...really going the extra mile - I highly recommend! Thank you so much x

Whilst we are at the early stages of our house purchase, I am impressed with the service that we have received so far. We have always received a prompt response which is much appreciated when arranging viewings or negotiating a sale. They were generally knowledgeable about the properties we viewed or will endeavour to find out if they do not know the answer to your question. When talking on the phone I always get the impression that they are happy to talk as long as you need which I really appreciate. Overall we have had a very good experience :)

Charters has been great throughout my long hunt for a home to buy. Liz was wonderful and tried very hard to find me the right house. This took a long time, so I decided to rent through them. Unfortunately my experience as a tenant was very disappointing. Charters very much acts in favour of the landlord and there were several things that were not disclosed to me about the property before I rented it. I could have overlooked these things despite the huge inconvenience and expense they caused, however, at the end of my tenancy Charters informed me that they would be acting for the landlord in an attempt to retain some of my deposit! There was no justifiable reason for any of my deposit to be retained and the landlord should have compensated me for the inconvenience of the situation throughout my tenancy anyway. Thankfully I bought my house through another estate agent in the end.

Sian · 8 July 2019 · Charters Winchester

Agent replied

Dear Sian, We are sorry to learn that you were unhappy with the service received from Charters Lettings after such a positive experience with our sales department. Having reviewed our notes I can see that you experienced a few minor maintenance issues during your tenancy that were dealt with very promptly but it appears that your main complaint was surrounding the return of your deposit. As per legislative requirements we register all deposits with a government approved scheme and handle the return of all deposits in accordance with their guidelines. We are unable to return any monies without both parties consent which protects tenants from unjustified claims. In this instance your landlord requested a small deduction which we informed you of and you did not agree too. You have the opportunity for this to go to independent arbitration via the deposit scheme but have not raised a dispute and we continue to hold these funds safely for you until a decision can be reached. I am sorry again that this has left you viewing Charters lettings negatively but we hope that you will be very happy in your new home.

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.

Julie · 25 June 2019 · Charters Alton

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!
