I have worked with Chartwell for many years. They have always been a great partner for rentals. With particular reference to helping me with a change in tenancy and identifying a new tenant I have found Ashton Darwell-Taylor to be particularly helpful - highly responsive and always replies to correspondence with no delays or hesitation, and proactive in bringing alerts to me or matters to my attention. An outstanding service and I would highly recommend both Chartwell and Ashton.

We’re delighted to hear that you’ve consistently found us to be a reliable partner, and it’s particularly great to see Ashton’s hard work and responsiveness recognised.

Ashton took excellent care of us from start to finish. During the rental process, he was a wonderful bridge between us and the landlord, and we were able to complete the rental procedures quickly. Additionally, his communication style was always very polite and understanding. I would like to thank him here as well.

I’ve worked with Keith and the team at Chartwells for over 10 years managing my property in Gravesend, and I honestly couldn’t recommend them more highly. Keith takes complete ownership of the property as if it were his own. Day-to-day matters are handled seamlessly without any need for involvement from me, and if anything significant arises, he communicates clearly and works with me to agree the best approach. That balance of independence and accountability is exactly what you want in a managing agent. They are also extremely efficient when it comes to lettings, consistently securing tenants quickly, and more importantly, good-quality, reliable tenants. Everything is well managed from a payment and compliance perspective, which gives real peace of mind. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and the level of service has been consistently excellent over the years. It’s been a genuine pleasure working with Keith and the team. If you’re looking for a dependable, proactive, and professional letting agent, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional service we received from Keith Walters during our tenancy at Amity Court, Greenhithe. From the very beginning, he demonstrated a commitment to professionalism and tenant satisfaction. I was particularly impressed by the timely application process, respecting our schedule and promptly addressing any queries. Throughout our stay, he provided a hassle-free experience. Maintenance requests were handled swiftly and efficiently, minimising any disruption to our daily life. He was always readily available to answer questions and address any concerns we had, providing clear and helpful guidance. The return of our deposit when vacating the apartment was processed promptly and without any issues, reflecting his commitment to fairness and transparency. Overall, my experience with Keith and the rest of the team at Chartwell Residential was incredibly positive. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking a reliable and tenant-focused letting agency.
Thank you so much for your lovely review. We're thrilled you were so pleased with our service. Wishing you every happiness in your new home.

Looked at a property recently. Letting agent was late and didn't have keys for the building. We were accepted on a tenancy offer- and told AFTER that the landlord was selling and therefore we would have to include a break clause at 6 months. A huge waste of time.
Dear Susannah, Sorry you feel this way but I would like to elaborate on this as the review is not accurate. Our negotiator was not late, she was waiting outside the main entrance where she said she would be. We do not manage the property so we had no option other than to rely on the tenant for access, which you were aware of beforehand, we can't control the tenant being late unfortunately. You were informed about the six month break clause and the Landlords intention to sell before we put forward your offer to the Landlord and you were still happy for us to proceed with the offer. Upon your offer being accepted you decided to lower this offer, which the Landlord refused. At this point you appear to have made this inaccurate review. We are more than happy to provide you with the email chain between yourself and the negotiator proving the above. Have a lovely week.

Layla is such a professional girl, we are amazed at her fantastic customer service. I was a bit unwell and I took a colleague with me to view a flat. I had to change the meeting time and still, Layla was really really patient, she showed us around a flat in Putney, my colleague made a video of the place and she was helping in every detail. This girl deserves a brilliant future in her career. Thank you dear Layla. You are awesome.

We rented a property in Dartford via Chartwell for 4 years. During that time we always found the principal, Keith Walters, to be knowledgeable, helpful, a man of principle and great charm. Of the three agencies we dealt with in Dartford, we will remember Chartwell as the best. We warmly recommend their professional service.

I had a fantastic experience working with Keith Walters and Chartwell Lettings. From the very start Keith was very professional and incredibly helpful. He made the entire process of finding and securing a flat seamless and stress-free. The communication was excellent, always available to answer all my questions and whenever I had problem Keith tried to solve it asap. If you're looking for a reliable and trustworthy letting agency, you won't find any better than this one. I highly recommend Chartwell Lettings. Thank you Keith for making this such a smooth and positive experience!
