Winkworth were exceptional during the sale of our flat.Guy in particular was tenacious and helpful in pushing the buyers' solicitors, despite them being particularly challenging, and managing all the communications with the chain and our solicitor. He was instrumental in getting the sale and our onward purchase across the line and we owe him a debt of gratitude!

A predatory scam. Do not use if a student or young.

AVOID WINKWORTH. I am still annoyed months after moving out. I was in a rolling contract, paid up my last month and moved out with plenty of notice - all fine. Out of the blue they then tried to hold me against a contract I never signed/didn't exist and though I agreed to pay if they could present one (said several times) they refused to present one despite hilariously agreeing at the start one could not be found. This went on for several weeks with back and forth phone calls and emails that went round in circles just pushing for me to pay a further 6 months I was never signed to. My mum's partner called in once. Said exact same thing id said. Phone call lasted 5 minutes. And they dropped it, apologised through him and he sent on the message to me that it would be dropped. I was livid. It felt not only predatory and an utter violation but it felt misogynistic on top of it. I am a Senior in my own job so understand associates have rules and policies to follow (and approached Winkworth also how I like to be approached with such complaints) but they completely made things up as they went along, changing stories over and over to try and get me to pay whilst refusing to provide a signed document to say so.Before moving in my friend told me her Winkworth experience which was very similar. I wish I had listened. This is clearly something they have done before and will probably do again in the hopes someone new to renting will just pay out. Vile.

Jenny made what could have been a very stressful situation of moving out of our home (that is being refurbished) into a rental property very straight forward; taking care of admin on our behalf and liaising with the landlord to cover all aspects of our move and so that we had what we needed when we moved in. I would definitely recommend Jenny in particular and also the Winkworth for the service that they offer.

I would like to express my appreciation to Mr Krunal Jethwa for his service and dedication in ensuring I receive the best possible outcome with any issues reported. He is very professional and easy to reach out to. Massive thank you to all the staff at Winkworth!

Winkworths Barnes: Amateurish and incompetent selling agents

Amateurish and incompetent in the extreme. As sole agents during 4 months of the peak house-buying season, Winkworths Barnes failed to sell our house despite interested buyers, all other properties at similar price-point being snapped up and low stock levels. Childish communicators with zero transaction-management skills. Even after we took our house off the market and formally terminated their agency, they continued to display our house on their website marked "under offer" - when the house was not under offer, they were not our agent and we had not consented to their using a photo of our property for marketing purposes. If you are looking for ineffectual and bombastic service, this is the firm for you.

5 Stars For Fabian

I would highly recommend Fabian at Winkworth. He was great to work with, made everything so easy. Communication was fantastic. If I was to rent again I most definitely use Fabian.

Terrible neglective managment!!!! We have been renting with them for a…

We have been renting with them for a year and a half, always on time with our responsibilities, always updating the managment for any issues with the lift or anything regarding the property. We had an emergency on the 31st of December where the boiler stop working and we were left completely with no warm water and a boiler that for some reason was leaking water! We were provided with emergency contacts which we tried contacting for about 3 days before we get an answer from them refusing to come and check the boiler as they were pretty sure they could not do anything due to the lack of parts( which they didn’t even know from the phone where and what exactly was the issue). After 4 days without warm water a guy came to check and nothing was done. In less words after all managment department was informed with the emergency, as we are talking about month January, even if they send people, who never treated our situation ,with a toddler at home, as emergency, did nothing. We were left for almost a month with no warm water and with the excuse that parts and manufacturers where difficult to find, with no other option and no reasonable deduction of the monthly rent, no help and no options with a toddler the most cold weather of the year!!! And the only response was that they are trying and we can have warm water for a family of 3 by using kettles!!! The boiler was fixed temporarily but still not permanently and we are at the middle of February. The worst managment we have ever faced and now they are asking us to leave with no excuse or reason. I am not willing to deal with this agency anymore and I hope I will never have to deal with such a neglective and awfull situation where they left a family with a young child in the most cold weather of the year for a month without heated water!!! I feel ashamed and disrespected but I have to make this review in order other peiple to be aware!

THANK YOU!

THANK YOU! This is hands down the best experience I have had with an Estate Agent. Shilpa was instrumental in getting the sale through before before the stamp duty break ended and walked us through every step, answering any questions we raised. Shilpa & the team made the experience an easy one and I am forever grateful for that. I will be recommending Winkworth to friends!

Paying top dollar to live in a damp and disgusting property!

Currently I am paying for a 'two' bedroom property. Unfortunately due to a severe leak I reported in 08/21 one of the two bedrooms is completely unusable due to the reoccurring leaks, and the severe damp as a result.It is now 29/10/21 almost 3 months later and the problem still has not been resolved. I reported the issue for the third time on 05/10/21 but as of 21/10/21 the Landlord seemed to think the issue was solved.In the meantime I have been paying the full rental price for a two bedroom property, yet for 3 months I will have been unable to use a significant part of the property - a younger family member now has no bedroom, yet I still have to pay for it. I have asked the landlord/agent to consider a temporary rental reduction due to the above reason however this has been flat out refused on multiple occasions.Despite many emails, phone calls, photo and video evidence I shared with Winkworth, the landlord still appeared to think the issue was solved. This tells me that Winkworth must be very selective on what information they choose to pass on to the landlord, or the landlord doesn't mind dragging on this issue for longer, and thus incurring significantly higher remediation costs.This issue was first reported in August, it is now nearly November, and the fact that it has taken this long, and the issue is still not resolved will have undoubtedly incurred additional costs to tenant (My possessions now have mould on them and I now have to find another bedroom) and landlord (Has many more remedial issues to deal with).My next step will be to report all of this, making complaints to the Property Redress Scheme and seeking legal advice.

had dealt with one of the staff in the sales side who seemed pleasurable although did not sell my property as it was taken off market. So, decided to use their Lettings team. This started out well initially till Johnny left and another guy took over. Does not respond to emails or telephone messages until I had to bring this to attention of branch manager. A new Lettings manager took over and was professional and good at her job but again, this changed. Got stuck with another who talks at you and had to remind her about good customer services. With regards managing, didn’t do anything but collect fees. They would try avoid doing basic tasks that other agents do. I have had other agents over the years and only decided using their Lettings whilst property was on the market. My entire dealings with them is something I have not had in 10yrs of dealing with Estate Agents and will definitely not recommend them for letting your property.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Super Service at Winkworth Long Melford

A huge thank you to Mark Wilkins at Winkworth Long Melford. He epitomises the term "Gentleman". He was always available and nothing was too much trouble. Our house sold very quickly and Mark then worked with us to progress to completion day. I would certainly recommend Winkworth but also believe that Mark's care and attention was the key to our successful sale. Thank you Mark.

Had a viewing scheduled with Fin Lamb who didn't even show up. I was waiting in the rain and had travelled over an hour on a Saturday to get there so you can imagine my frustration. When I got through to him he said he had called me in the morning to let me know the property had already been let but I had no missed calls, voicemail or email from him.

WINKWORTH HEND0N EXCEL

I've been with Winkworth Hendon for 17 years maybe longer. ''The business was recently sold and I was concerned about how the new management would work for us. I worried unnecessarily-everyone working for Winkworth (Hendon) management has done a superb job and I have great faith in them They are super efficient, use IT well and are very responsive-not a weak link.

Professional from start to finish

Professional from start to finish. Shilpa was understanding of our needs and patient with my elderly parents, and caring of our home of 43 years. Shilpa kept us up to date at all times and we never felt pressured or pressurised. Nishi did most of the viewings and again courteous, punctual and understanding. Would definitely recommend and use again. Huge thank you from us all.

Happy with our experience

My partner and I are first time buyers, and we’re just about to complete on our first flat. Patrick, Alex and Nicola have overseen the whole process and we’re really happy with the way our purchase has been dealt with. We weren’t really expecting to feel grateful to our seller’s estate agents, but they have helped us navigate all the twists and turns fairly and transparently. They were also very helpful when our solicitors were being less than efficient (!) - an email to the Winkworth team was often a quick and easy way to sort out any issues. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again (not that you have a choice as a buyer, though - if only…!).

For four weeks the branch staff thinks it's ok to have mice and all the associated issues running round the flat and still no date for when the people will be coming to sort out the issue, very poor. Am sure they wouldn't want this in their own homes but it's ok for people that pay their salaries

Guildford Estate agent winkworth

Guildford Estate agent winkworth. Got shown a property today with my partner and 8 month old baby today. I'm offended you would even think that a filthy student property would be suitable for mt family anyway! Was absolutely disguted that you can show property's in these conditions like that and think its acceptable (and in a pandemic you should be sanitising everything down!) When tenants leave if you think showing a dirty property with dirt and filth is acceptable it is not! Trying to sell a property to me in such disgusting conditions and thinking its okay to show people shows what type of estate agents you would have been if we were to have gone with you. Asked to be taken off the books would not recommend thank god we curved this! Will be telling everyone to avoid this estate agent. Your reviews don't look great anyway even though you deleted my Google one!
