GoogleI recently completed on the sale of my flat (having purchased through Hotblack a few years ago). They did a wonderful job in terms of listing and viewing the property. I felt they were easy to communicate with and provided me with honest and valuable advice throughout. Selling a flat is inevitably stressful; the agents at Hotblack were perpetually positive and supportive. I am very grateful to everyone involved in the process, Mehdad and Charlie in particular.
Hotblack Desiato stand out for me (in comparison to other estate agents I have dealt with); they were calm and straightforward. I felt confident of a good outcome by choosing them.

GoogleWe have had awful experiences with HBD’s maintenance of the flat which we rent.
HBD manage the property and have left us without hot water and heating for 6 days and counting. They have not proposed any solution for the total lack of hot water and have ignored repeated requests for alternative temporary accommodation and a rent refund for the period.
It feels like the property manager lacks any empathy for us as they seems to have to no qualms with leaving a pregnant woman in a house indefinitely without hot water or proper heating.
Their attitude seems to be that it’s not their problem if parts need to be ordered and that the tenants are expected to live in horrific conditions while paying full rent. It’s truly shocking.

GoogleMy family and I have been dealing with this company since 1969 when my parents bought their home in Camden from Stickley and Kent (now part of Hotblack). Since then I have rented out a house and then two flats via their letting service. I’ve always found them to be professional and diligent in all their dealings with me. They also know the Camden property market very well.
I’m delighted to recommend them if you need property services.

TrustpilotGreat agents- highly supportive
Jake and Stuart both worked tirelessly over a two year period (in which we had two sales fall through) to get my property over the line and sold to the right people for the right price. They were always incredibly helpful, supportive and good humoured- which helped make, what would otherwise be, a very stressful business entirely tolerable. Highly recommend!

The team at hotblack desiato went above and beyond my expectations. They delivered a great sale price, they were professional at every stage and had very good lines of communication.
