Townends are by far, in my opinion, the worst Estate Agency out there, and have been an absolute nightmare, as tenants, to deal with. The majority are unprofessional, unreliable, utterly useless and complete liars. I will never, ever, use this company for anything ever again. If you ever use this company then proceed with extreme caution. Dont expect to ever be called back once they have your money, don't expect property repairs to be dealt with without you chasing them persistently (over one month without hot water or heating in Dec/Jan time), dont expect documentation to be fully accurate, dont expect them to turn up to viewings but instead ask the current tenants to show you around. Do expect them to lie to put the Landlord to shame, even though they are at fault (as confirmed by the Lanlord) do expect your property to be left insecure when they have attended, do expect your property to be damaged when they have attended, do expect to speak with people who do not carry out actions they say they will. Do expect rudeness and disappointment from day 1...I could go on. Townends Woking, property management and rentals in particular, should be absolutely ashamed of themselves, the last 4 years dealing with Townends Woking has been a nightmare.

We moved to Woking from Spain and we did the whole process from afar. Scarlett was great in answering any questions we had. She took the time to do a video chat with us so we could see the place and always made herself available! Recommend.

Worst agency in th world!! Stay well away.As a landlord they allow my tenants to breach their contract. I don't allow pets they let 3 dogs stay in my 1 bed flat and an extra tenant and then have the gaul to tell me that they cant do an inspection as the tenants need peace and tranquillity when they are breaching their contract. They never reply to emails or calls. Some of the staff are so clueless you may as well employ chimps. NEVER EVER USE TOWNENDS.if minus points were available they would get it Also their fees are ludicrous and they over charge for everything. Their own handyman couldn't even measure a washing machine correctly. Stay well away if you are a landlord. If a tenant go for it as they let you destroy property and breach contracts as you need a peaceful life!!
Hi Sarah, thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback. It is really disappointing to hear that your experience with us has not been a positive one. I would really love the opportunity to discuss this with you in further detail so that I can fully understand what has happened. If you could please contact me directly at help@townends.co.uk so that we can arrange a convenient time to talk that would be great. Thank you, Emily

I had a fantastic experience dealing with Kevin and Zack. Townends Regents were a breath of fresh air with their approach and attitude to selling my property. Other agents came in and priced the house wrong, Kevin got it spot on and was always very honest and straight talking. Zack then got me multiple offers and ultimately the best price. Very very happy and would recommend to anyone!
Thank you for an amazing review! We're delighted to hear you were happy with our sales team and pleased we were able to help with selling your property. I've passed your comments onto the team, and we look forward to assisting you again in future. Ellenor, Customer Experience Team.

Knowledgeable local agents committed to their clients.

I have always found you all to be professional, responsive and more than helpful. I would certainly recommend your services to anyone. Living abroad and letting out what is actually our home is always a stressful proposition, but I have been more than confident in your ability to be good stewards of our property.

As communicated by people on this forum, I cannot believe the degree of unprofessionalism displayed by the company and their agents. They have properties for which they take people's money (but they will still show up on their website and rightmove) and then cite legal loopholes to get out of the mess they put their clients through. It is one thing to be 'legally right' and a completely different thing to be 'morally upright'; the latter, I don't think the company has heard of. Hopefully this review and what several others have posted here will help prevent other people from falling prey to them.
Hi Merin R Philip, sorry to hear about your experience. We thank you for your feedback and kindly ask that you email info@townends.co.uk please, with the full details, the branch you have been dealing with and whether this is regarding sales or lettings. We will ensure this is investigated and that someone contacts you to resolve the matter. Many thanks.

Speak to their clients rather than only the Landlords

My wife and I were looking to move to Woking and Scarlett helped us every step of the way in securing a really fantastic rental of a property that ticked all of the boxes, so we would highly recommend Townends Woking if you're currently searching for a property in this area. We were kept up to date with all developments throughout the process and were able to book in a quick viewing on the day we were informed our offer had been accepted which helped us in quickly confirming our interest in the property. The entire process was very quick, handled wonderfully and made what is usually a tough and sometimes tiring process extremely easy. Many thanks to Scarlett and the team for their efforts. Adam & Pippa
Hi Adam and Pippa, what a lovely 5 star review! Thank you so much for taking the time to share this with us. We agree that Scarlett is an absolute star and we will be sure to pass your wonderful comments onto her and the team. We believe that communication is key and its so great to hear that you were kept up to date at all times. We hope you are settling into your new home well and thank you for choosing Townends - Emily

Standard "how much money can we get out of you?" agency. Crazy high fees (so much so that, when I repeatedly complained and threatened to not go ahead, they chopped off £100, which brought the total down to "bonkers" rather than "fucking bonkers".) Eventually my landlord, who was also sick of them, said she was packing them in and would deal with us privately. Avoid - try to deal with a landlord privately rather than fund avaricious companies like this.
Hi Andrew, I am really disappointed to see your experience working with us has not been a positive one. I would really love the opportunity to discuss this with you and understand fully what has led to you feeling this way. If you could please contact me directly at help@townends.co.uk so that we can discuss this further with one another. Thank you so much, Emily

Having dealt with Craig over the years ( financial advisor ), He put me onto the lettings team. After numerous viewings they found me a tennant It was a pleasure to work with them, and they were very professional in their choice (especially Richard ) .Overall a good experience.

You always need to chase. I have reached out to the property management side and they seem swamped and therefore are unable to help. I had a £10 bill converted to a £110 bill. I am now chasing for a refund but they just seem to charge whatever they want. Its really frustrating. The local agents are OK, its just the property management side. You always have to chase, chase and chase.

Absolute shambles dealing with this company from start to finish, havent found a single person working for the company that can actually do their job properly yet, 6 weeks after moving out of one of their properties and matters still aren't resolved, there isn't any sense of wanting to get anything resolved by them either, I'd highly recommend AVOIDING at all costs.
Dear Laney, I am very sorry to hear that your experience working with us has not met your expectations. I understand that your dedicated property manager is in regular contact with you to bring this matter to a positive resolution for all parties invol…See more
