TrustpilotExcellent service from Hamptons
The service and communication from Hamptons is excellent. Leasing a property can be stressful, things can go wrong and tenants can be demanding! Our contact, Lucy Desborough, is terrific to work with. She is calm even when things are stressy,her professional tone is matched by her shrewd judgement.

TrustpilotDishonest and Immoral
Avoid this letting agency if at all possible. This agency rented a property to me and my partner with a severe infestation. This occurred back in March-2020 a week before the national lockdown due to covid-19. We only found out after moving in since when we visited the house, it had people living on it and the signs of the infestation were hidden. In addition it's important to mention that the initial AST (tenancy agreement) that we refused and had to negotiate during months, had a clause that stated that *all* infestations were to be liable to the tenant. This implied that even if it's not caused by the tenant, any infestation would be their responsibility to fix/bear the costs. After moving in and despite multiple exchange of communications with this agency, the landlord and Hamptons tried to push us to accept fumigation treatments without offering to cover expenses for alternate accommodation. This meant that in essence we couldn't go anywhere since there was a lockdown. Imagine the stress that this caused during so many months of lockdown having to live with an infestation in the house but still paying full rent and being pressured to let the fumigation to occur or "face the consequences that the responsibility would be on the tenants for not leaving the property".When we wrote a formal complaint to Hamptons and their position was clear: they only work to defend the landlords interests which is their client and the offer of fumigation treatments without alternate accommodation is more than generous. This is not the case by UK law and although the responsibility is on the landlord to fix the problems, Hamptons knowingly that there was an infestation in the property still rented it again.Very dishonest people.

TrustpilotHamptons Windsor - the worst type of Lettings Agent
Simply put, if you are renting in the Windsor area NEVER use Hamptons. Irresponsible, rude and careless. The worst type of lazy and substandard service imaginable. They could not have managed our 'expensive' rental property any more carelessly than they did. More than 120 maintenance emails with barely anything fixed.Even now, having moved out of the property, we have to chase constantly about our deposit. NEVER USE Hamptons Windsor if you want to have a stress free life! Useless, slapdash, irresponsible, charmless and reckless are the best words used to describe them. Disappointing, disappointing, disappointing.

TrustpilotFriendly and Reliable
I have found the staff very friendly, professional, helpful and kind. My experience through the many years I have been using their services, very pleasant and hassle-free. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone who would want to rent out their property or those who rent property through Hamptons.

TrustpilotHighly recommended
I had a great experience with Daniel Isaac and his colleagues at the Tower Bridge office. The entire process went unbelievably quickly and smoothly. They went out of their way to try to accommodate all of my requests and were always available when I had questions. I'd recommend them very highly!
Thank you for leaving us your feedback. We take great pride in our people and as such are delighted to hear Daniel provided you with such a high level of service and in particular, that the process was made as smooth as possible. Feedback of this nature is very important to us and we look forward to sharing your review with the whole team.

TrustpilotReliable, intelligent service
Hamptons have looked after my property for nearly 20 years: in that time the service has vastly improved and over the last ten years I have had excellent service. Issues are dealt with efficiently and the extra mile is readily gone to find alternative solutions if there is a problem. Reliable, courteous and helpful, swift to respond to queries, I have every confidence in my manager and she takes all the worry out of letting my property.

TrustpilotA comedy of errors that ceased to be funny
This review is specific to the Marlow office. I wanted to pay a little more for what I hoped would be a good, respectful service. It was anything but. After £'000s lost due to a long list of negligence, and hearing similar stories (too late) from others in a similar position - I'm extremely pleased to have walked away from them. Every function is either outsourced or managed by different depts - so one hand doesn't know what the other is doing. Just in 2019, I can count up emails from 20 different people at Hamptons about the same property.It's therefore difficult for them to notice issues let alone resolve them, despite paying for a fully managed service. My tenants paid in 6 month blocks upfront, but each month they'd post letters saying it was overdue. They missed major issues during their property visits - including furniture being totally shredded, nicotine stains and carpet burns from smoking (non-smoking property), and negligence of the garden leading to whole sections dying. They were then negligent after the tenants left, and took so long to take any action (people starting things then going on holiday, not responding to emails, no updates) that I had to take matters into my own hands and bring in my own team to manage it all for me and get the property back onto the market. I don't know what reputation they're riding on, but it's definitely gone. They had many many chances to step up and do their job, but they failed at every step.

The current manger is quite new for us as he took over the roll of our previous manager who is on maternity leave. Daniel Johnson our new manager has been diligent and response quickly to any enquire we may have. As keep us well informed of any outstanding work or maintenance needed. We have be happy with his service.

Hamptons is the agency managing the property that we are currently renting. We are very happy with their service since before moving in. Our property manager Daniel Johnson in Harpenden has provided us with a very good service and high professionalism throughout our tenancy. Highly recommended.

TrustpilotExcellent service, above and beyond.
The team at Hamptons have been fantastic in helping to secure new tenants during a particularly challenging time. They were always charming, professional and efficient, their response was rapid, and their attention to detail first class. Sophie Winterson proved herself to be both pro-active and resilient, despite the unique difficulties provided Covid-19, particularly with regards to viewings. Unfortunately, due to no fault of the agents, the first deal did not proceed, but Sophie responded as soon as was practically possible and soon found us a suitable replacement. The service was above and beyond what was expected, from the most minute detail to more significant concerns. Robert Baird also demonstrated a reassuring and pragmatic approach to make sure the property was handed over successfully. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Won’t name the individuals but the property management team were truly awful. Not worth my time going into detail but would just avoid Hamptons at all costs.
