GoogleI had the pleasure of working with the very talented Estate Agent Mr Williams-brade. He was friendly, approachable and had great banter! He consistently supported my partner and I on our house hunting journey and was a bloody legend! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for their future home

TrustpilotLet down by Hamptons fully managed service
We let our Victorian period house for five years while we lived in the USA through Hamptons fully managed service. Over that period various work were carried out that we approved but obviously which we could not manage. Hamptons assured us they had access and relationships with good quality trades people. We came back to find stone mullions drilled through. Holes made by plumbers left exposed. Cement used instead of grouting. White pipework placed over the outside of the house. Totally different fittings used in bathrooms. The house was beautiful when we left and we returned to find it heading towards a 1960's student house. We paid Hamptons to periodically review in addition to the 11% they took. The company they contracted to was CCP Maintenance. DO NOT LET THEM IN YOUR HOME. I would suggest also finding a letting agency that actually cares about the house and not just the income.

TrustpilotVery Poor Experience
We were looking to rent a property (£4000-£5000 pm). We arranged several viewings. The first 4 were conducted by a man from one office. He was very affable. The next 2 were conducted by a girl from a different office. We decided we wanted to proceed with one and we put in a definite and precise offer. We emailed the girl on Friday, clearly stating our position. She responded asking if we were happy to confirm the asking price, which we agreed to. I also confirmed that we were offering a long term let (3+years) and also a holding deposit that was non-fundable in the event that the sale did not complete. That was Friday early afternoon. We heard nothing back and by Tuesday Mid morning I phoned to ask if the landlord had responded. Yes, she said, although she hadn't bothered to tell us! She said the landlord had accepted our offer, but wanted to continue marketing the property until we had exchanged contracts. I asked whether she had advised him of our offer for a non-returnable deposit. No, she hadn't read our email properly! She is clearly on a different planet and speaks a different language! I asked her to go back and tell the landlord clearly what we had offered. She came back saying that he accepted our offer but would continue marketing the property in the meantime. We cannot affor to end up without somewhere to live, so I have told them to advise their client that we withdraw completley. His loss, not ours. I'm sure the outcome would have been different if we hasd been dealing with someone who knew what they were doing and had bothered to digest and understand our communications. Not impressed at all!

My experience with Hamptons lettings agency in Windsor has been very positive over the last two years. Patryk has been really helpful and he always tries to find the best solution to help me as a tenant. Overall, they are a very professional agency.

TrustpilotHolding on to our deposit money…
Holding on to our deposit money illegally. Have waited 25 days and counting for our money to come back. Spoke to branch manager in Clapham (Andrew) he seems like a nice guy but blaming it on not being able to get hold of the landlord?? How is this fair? What a shambles! Have rented from 3 other letting agents and they always gave us our money back on time. We were great tenants for 2 years, always paid rent on time and gave the property back in great condition!

TrustpilotLeave it to Saima.
Leave it to Saima.For several years, we have been renting our property while living overseas. For the past year, Saima has been in charge of management. She is capable of handling any issues that arise, and I trust her fully to work in our best interests while keeping our tenants happy. She keeps us informed about the arising issues and reports back diligently, minimising unnecessary contact, which I appreciate. She manages the load well, and I would recommend her service.

TrustpilotRental management
Hamptons have been managing my properly for years now and I’ve always had a good experience with them. They take care of everything very professionally and I’m always well informed about anything that needs my attention. I mostly liaise with Constance and she in particular has been great to deal with. Always very friendly and prompt to reply to questions. She’s definitely made my life easier in terms of my property. I’d definitely recommend.

TrustpilotHamptons Property Management
I have been using Hamptons, St. Albans for short term lets for over 4 years and the whole team have been absolutely brilliant. I am particularly impressed with David Whiting the property manager. He has been very responsive, professional and friendly in dealing with any of the issues at the property. He seems to have a great team of reliable and friendly contractors on call that fix all the problems quickly and professionally.

TrustpilotFraudulent service
I am a (multiple) properties owner, but for personal reasons I wanted to rent a flat very centrally in Windsor Castle area.I was rather in a rush and the location and the appearance of the property was appealing, in spite of having zero storage options and the access to the second floor was solely by stairs (I did not deem this a problem in my circumstances).What I was not aware, and the Agency was, it was that this property was plagued by structural issues ( water ingress), and while I asked if there are any adverse issues with this property, I was told that 'this was a very sought after location'. I closed the deal and when I checked in to collect the keys (living at the time in my own property in Richmond upon Thames), I saw traces of damp on the ceiling that I notified in writing and I had the assurance that 'there is nothing serious', but they would notify the landlord.Three weeks later I moved in with a light content, given that this is a pied a terre (completely unfurnished). Five days down the line, with rain pouring down, the water started to drip on the floors and on a brand new Ziegler rug I took it to keep me company and brighten the tern impersonal interior (modern).When notifying Hamptons, I found out that, 'yes', the building was plagued by issues.Insult over injury, Hamptons suggested in a shameless message that I should assist with access ...in a month (!!!!!!) time for repairs.I intend to bring to Court Hamptons for dishonesty, since they were the agents for the closing of the deal.Another thing: the property is located in a hot spot for rats............................

Special thanks to Mark Goss for showing round numerous potential buyers and finally bagging one that stuck ! Thanks Mark. Thoroughly recommend Hamptons.

Terrible experience. Please do not rent from Hampton International. There is no phone number to contact, you end up emailing back and forth. There referencing partner HOMELET are slow in obtaining references. Referees confirmed providing reference, all documents uploaded as requested, 7 days still unable to obtain key to the rented property. Please avoid at any cost. They act on behalf non resident Landlord in UK. They quick to get your deposit for rent, once obtained, you are left with emails contact only. No phone.

TrustpilotQuality service with a smile - Rickmansworth Hamptons
From professional estate agents to uber effective property management I highly recommend Hamptons international Rickmansworth branch. No matter whom you speak to in the office, you are always welcomed with kindness and understanding. A special shout out to property manager Melissa who's maintenance problem-solving is lightning quick. It's also a credit to the agency that all tradespeople they use are polite, professional, trustworthy and always provide top-notch service.I feel confident that when issues occur, they will be taken care of removing all stress from myself as a tenant. Thank you Rickmansworth Hamptons
Thank you for your feedback about our team in Rickmansworth and in particular Melissa, we are delighted to hear you had such a good experience and look forward to making the team aware of your review.

TrustpilotGreat Property Management
As a tenant of Hamptons, I wanted to say a huge thank you to Nicole Drackett our property manager, who has made renting so much easier throughout my two years in the property. She has always been on hand to assist and been very understanding when faced with several issues at once in the property. Most issues were solved promptly and communication was excellent throughout. Can’t thank her enough! I’d also like to mention Caroline Ryan, the Lettings manager, and Laura Donati in renewals, for their exceptional service when initially renting the property and during my vacation of the property. Making it as stress-free as possible, in a difficult & busy rental market!

TrustpilotDisappointing with limited recommendation
I am disappointed with Hamptons and their property management service. The initial lettings period, and the relationship built with Nadia was faultless. I was really impressed with their marketing and the speed in which they let the property. What lets them down is the last 2 years of management, including the tenancy renewal process handled by a different department. The renewal was brash, the communication was curt and rude. I felt rushed, and was pushed into a situation which wasn't explained to me with much truth. On reflection I really regret the way that was handled. Add that the to the disappointing management for the first year, it has left me wishing I had done things differently.I was moved to a different property manager after making some complaints, and when I renewed I was allowed to do this as part of the deal.Whilst Daniel is very likeable, I am however still not at ease with the situation. I feel that the communication is always slow, I am never kept up to speed and some of the issues in my property could have been dealt with much quicker, thus reducing the repair bill. I have had to be more involved than I would have expected too, which when paying the management fee is part of the reason for doing so.On reflection I would prefer to use a smaller more personal letting agent with more time and care towards their landlords. Would I be to renew I would remain with Hamptons for the marketing and tenant finding however I absolutely wouldn't recommend the managed service and feel quite strongly about this and my experience.

TrustpilotCompetent, Reliable and Dependable
We have been letting properties for many years, and we have used the services of a variety of letting agents to manage the properties. Trevor Scott at Hamptons stands out in the service he gives. Not only is he competent and understands our approach to property management but he is also excellent in liaising with the tenants. Also, and importantly, he has been a constant within the Hamptons Property Management team. There is nothing more frustrating than a high turnover of Property Managers. Trevor is reliable and dependable.

TrustpilotA hopeful first tenancy.
Being a tennant under Hamptons, is like a breath of fresh air in a market that is constantly evolving and increasingly closed off the young prospective tenants who have the somewhat tarred effect of being a student.I have written previously on other review sites about the wonderful team at Hamptons, and how they are quick to respond to any issues that may arise.I personally have the pleasure of having M.Hudson as my property manager, and as someone who is working out what adult life is being in my 20s, I feel safe knowing that my best interests are being looked out for.There is no issue that is too big for Hamptons, and while I'm glad I've not experienced the worst possible outcomes, things like white's goods breaking down Melanie is fast and re-assuring, I'm always concerned to report issues as I feel a hinderance but she has been there every step of the way, giving me assurance that my concerns are warranted and that it is all a part of being a tennant.I am concerned for the future, as I feel at home in my current rental and I could stay for as long as the team and my landlord would have me. If you are looking for a new tenancy or you are in the private rental sector Hamptons really outdoes them all, a professional service with no compromise, security in your funding and helping to advise where to go should things like checks and deposits become and issue.I really do respect and thank Melanie and the Hamptons team, without them I would have long gone home and not been able to continue my studies.Thank you Hamptons, Thank you Melanie.

"Hamptons have been fully managing my rental property and overall i have been pleased with the service. The Maintenance and reactive repair side has been excellent with good communication and efficiency. Mandy D'Orta is very professional, patient when needed and applies common sense to challenging issues which is a breath of fresh air in modern day society. She has been fantastic.The only negative is the yearly inspection report which i understand was undertaken by another member of staff. The report is inaccurate, lacks detail and misses defects. Hamptons have taken this feedback on board with a view of improving."
