AVOID THIS AGENCY! unethical treatment, unprofessional behaviour, unethical landlord

if i could give less stars i would. AVOID AT ANY COST! Absolutely unprofessional behaviour and unethical treatment. absolutely unethical landlord. rented with them in St Johns Wood. NEVER AGAIN! they never respond on time - had to chase them for confirming move out date for months! the flat was provided in a disgusting state to me: very dirty (the tissues were simply black after cleaning, which i sent to them), smelled of the fresh paint for 3 weeks and I got intoxicated and was vomiting for days because of this. The fridge smelled of curry for 3 months after move in date. I have documented the poor state of everything in that apartment, and God it was poor! the apartment is practically falling apart - the walls are covered with scratches, the doors not closing properly, the windows so ancient that my grandmother had better for the place with chickens on a farm 30 years ago. not to mention the gap of 5 cm wide between the front door/ entrance door and the floor, causing draught and constant windows banging inside apartment each time someone was passing in the corridor. now the landlord is not returning my deposit saying he wants to repaint the walls at my cost. and the agency - despite me having provided thousands of pictures showing each millimetre of the flat in the poor state when i moved in, does not say a thing. pretending a landlord is saying the truth claiming i damaged the walls, when i have sms from him and emails from knight frank acknowledging the scratches on the walls and all the rest related to the poor state of the flat.-UPDATE: still no response to my numerous emails, their agents who were in contact with me on my case are not picking up and are never available. only received email confirming registration of my complaint. Landlord is also ignoring all my countless attempts to get in touch. i raised a dispute on tds. it will take a very long period of time to get through the process so avoid this agency as plague. unethical bunch of unprofessional people. will now have to wait until 22nd november for the landlord or agency to respond on dispute claim raised by me. will keep this updated on progressUPDATE2: a week later and still no response from Knight Frank. please avoid them if you want to get your deposit backUPDATE 3: their complaints team is just as useless and unprofessional as all of the agents i have dealt with. they did not offer any solution to me or tried talking to the laddlord, who is still not responding to my countless emails and calls, in emails i also cc the knight frank colleagues. instead they say it is not their responsibility as the property is managed by landlord. it is of course totally ok for them that i paid them, but they have 0 responsibilty to their tenants. 0! not even to ensure the info i shared on move in date on the terrible state of the property is documented in the check in report. because clearly the check out report shows all damages i reported to knight frank as damages caused by me. landlord now uses this claiming deductions in tds dispute raised by me. i have no doubt i will get my money back in full because i have all pictures and documented evidence i sent right away when i moved in, but the tds process takes months. STAY AWAY FROM JNIGHT FRANK: RENT FROM SMALLER MORE PROFESSIONAL AGENCIES. I GOT MY DEPOSIT BACK IN FULL WITH 0 PROBLEMS FROM OTHER AGENCIES

Leigh Glazebrook at Knight Frank

We recently sold our property through Knight Frank in Stow on the Wold. Leigh Glazebrook demonstrated exemplary professionalism and dedication coupled with enthusiasm and positivity; from the beginning we had complete confidence in Leigh. He advised us on how to prepare our property for sale and then coordinated the launch, producing a stunning brochure and advising us on the Sale process, including our part in the procedure. Rosie as well as Leigh showed the house to prospective buyers and kept us informed at all stages how the Sale was progressing.Leigh has in depth knowledge of both the region and the local market; he used this knowledge superbly to present and sell our property so that once we had presented and packaged the Property in the best manner we received an offer within a few weeks which we accepted.From this point Leigh worked incredibly hard to synchronise the different elements required; liaising with not only the Buyer but also our lawyer and accountant to ensure that the Sale went as smoothly as possible. His positive attitude and wholeheartedness helped us throughout our more complex than usual Sale. We can happily say that our Sale was Completed with rapidity and efficiency. We also appreciate the kindness shown to us. Thank you Leigh and the team at Stow on the Wold

Extraordinary service from Adam Burlison & team

We have received a truly extraordinary service from Adam and his team in Esher: Amanda, Hayley and Maisie. Both our sale and purchase had various complications built in but Adam and his team helped us navigate the many hurdles and challenges brilliantly. Adam himself is a superstar. Always available (no matter what timezone I was in ;) and his knowledge of the market and frankly anything to do with selling and buying a property in the UK is second to none. In the end he and his team made what could have been a very complicated process a very enjoyable and successful experience for my entire family. Cannot recommend Knight Frank in Esher enough.

I recently had the pleasure of working…

I recently had the pleasure of working with Lexi Solt, who made our flat-hunting experience very pleasant. She was super responsive from the get-go, quickly answering all my questions and ensuring I felt supported throughout the exchange. What stood out the most was how consultative she was when she showed us around the property, she took the time to truly understand what I was looking for and what we needed in a new home.During the viewing, Lexi actively showed me around the flat, answering all my questions with enthusiasm and insight. She genuinely helped me figure out if the flat made sense for our needs, rather than just trying to rush through the process. Her positive attitude and energy made the experience enjoyable and easy.Also, her tech-savvy approach made her stand out. She sent me a pin on WhatsApp to ensure I knew exactly where to go, which made coordination super quick and easy. I highly recommend Lexi to anyone in search of a new flat!

Thank you Lucy and Team

We had a great experience working with Lana, Lucy, and Kyrsten. They accommodated all of our special requests, payment timelines and prepared the handover of the property as we needed. The entire move-in process was handled smoothly and professionally, from organizing multiple viewings to making sure every detail was taken care of. They were responsive, helpful, and made what could have been a stressful process feel easy and well-managed. Highly recommend their service!

Move in nightmare

Property was very dirty, with appliances not working, full of issues, and work that was part of the tenancy agreement wasn’t carried out. Check in was late by several hours. Following up on fixing things with the property manager afterwards is a nightmare as they are non responsive most of the time.

This is the best experience I’ve ever…

This is the best experience I’ve ever had with an agent, it was seamless, expert, generous and kind. Without Lara I would never have found this house or had the confidence to buy it, she’s a total gem. Helen and Rosie made it possible for me to view the house multiple times, take a builder and an architect with me, and give me the full picture about the house and the village. The process was extremely efficient, clear and well managed, no question was too stupid and no asked too difficult. I really cannot recommend Knight Frank highly enough, Lara Rosie and Helen are brilliant at what they do and incredibly kind, generous, thoughtful, knowledgeable and helpful. Helen managed the process brilliantly, she gave me confidence and assurance, and was just generally incredibly kind and supportive, I wouldn’t want to buy a house through anybody else!

We found our forever home via Knight Frank, and the whole process from start to finish was made as painless as possible due to the diligence, expertise, and professionalism of William, Jordana, Rachael, and Sophie in the team at Amersham.The whole experience couldn’t have been more different to that with an agent that was dealing with a previous property we were purchasing, which thankfully in hindsight fell through for all the right reasons, as it is not a patch on the beautiful home and area where we now reside.Thank you Amersham team for making that happen!

Outstanding Service and a Seamless Moving Experience with Knight Frank and Lee Murad

I couldn't be more impressed with the support I received from Lee Murad at Knight Frank. From the moment I moved into my beautiful new apartment, Lee has been incredibly responsive, collaborative, and supportive. His dedication to ensuring a smooth transition has made all the difference. Lee is exceptionally organized and, most importantly, reliable. He takes care of every detail, project managing any outstanding issues, and always keeping me informed with professional and timely communication. Thanks to his efforts, my move was seamless, and I felt completely at ease throughout the process.I would highly recommend Knight Frank and Lee to anyone looking for a stress-free rental experience. If you want a team that truly cares about your needs and makes the entire process effortless, look no further

Very trusted agent

I’ve been renting a flat through Knight Frank for the past two years, and my experience has been excellent. Toru is incredibly responsive, whether it’s handling repairs, lost keys, or any legal documentation. Every time I’ve had an issue, they’ve addressed it promptly and efficiently. Maintenance is always scheduled well in advance, and they ensure everything is taken care of without me having to worry. The service is consistently professional and reliable. I highly recommend Knight Frank for anyone looking for a smooth and stress-free renting experience! Thank you, Toru.

Reliability and peace of mind

I was being looked after by Ava who I found to be most helpful during my 6 years as a tenant. Prompt in her response, always available to discuss issues and very quick to come with solution and at all times kept things very friendly and professional. Reliability and peace of mind are 2 words that comes to mind when I think of the support she gave me

Highly recommend Zara at the Richmond office

We couldn't be happier with our experience of Knight Frank, Richmond in the handling of our purchase. We'd recently pulled out of a previous sale, poorly managed by Chase Buchanan, and had an unpleasant experience in the way we were treated as buyers.From the very beginning of our dealings with Zara at Knight Frank (Richmond) we felt listened to and supported. Despite her job acting in the interest of the sellers, we also felt like she was in our corner and went above and beyond to make the process as smooth and easy for us as she could. Liam from the Richmond office was also super helpful while Zara was on leave.Throughout the process, which was just over 2 months from our first offer to completion, the team provided excellent communication (phone and email) as to what was happening which helped a stressful process feel more enjoyable and exciting. Thank you to the Richmond team and BIG thank you to Zara for all her support in helping us secure our new home!

Kavita and Katie in the Ascot lettings…

Kavita and Katie in the Ascot lettings team were wonderful. They were so attentive, great at communicating and very efficient with getting my property listed and viewings arranged. I have worked with multiple estate agents in the past and have NEVER experienced the level of professionalism, care and efficiency they both provided. Will continue to use Knight Frank in the future and will continue to rant and rave about how anyone else looking for letting or sales support should also use Knight Frank. Thank you so much ladies !!

Professional, efficient and friendly

We recently purchased a house where Sam Daniels from Knight Frank's Bath team acted as the seller's agent, with Giselle Holman assisting to progress the sale. Both Sam and Giselle were fantastic throughout the entire process.They kept us informed with regular updates and worked diligently to ensure all relevant parties, including solicitors, stayed on track. Their proactive approach, combined with the expertise of the Bath team, really helped take the stress out of what can often be a very stressful experience.We are incredibly grateful for their support and would highly recommend Sam, Giselle, and the Knight Frank Bath team.

renting via Esher Knight Frank

I recently rent a house via Esher Knight Frank through a letting negotiator named Beth Tighe who has been helpful, understanding and constructive throughout the whole process. The best part is during the contract drafting, Beth managed to make the contract more flexible based on my personal situation, which I appreciate a lot.Additionally, Beth is professional and responsible before moving in. She pointed out the places in the house that have not been cleaned to the standards and suggested to the Landlord that cleaners come back to do it again.The only place that Knight Frank needs to improve is that remembering to include the holding deposit paid in the initial payments/Invoice. some customers may forget already paying the holding deposit.

Seamless Process and Great Support from Lety

The whole move in process was great for us with everything taken care of by the team. A particular mention to our property manager, Lety Lupi, who has helped resolve some of the issues we found over the first few weeks. Lety has constantly been following up with contractors on our behalf to ensure all the work gets done promptly and throughout the whole process has been a joy to speak to.

Knight Frank Hungerford Office - Excellent service

Following a friend's successful house sale using Knight Frank's Hungerford office, we engaged KF Hungerford to sell my mother's house in south Oxfordshire after she moved into a care home. Rob and his team at KF Hungerford did an excellent job in putting a sale brochure together, with superb photographs, and getting a steady stream of serious viewers. The house was listed, with a thatched outbuilding, and wasn't an immediate sell, but KF found us a good buyer and supported us through the whole transaction process with patience, tact and efficiency. I recommend Knight Frank Hungerford Office, and would certainly use them again.

Very Good Experience

I dealt with Lucy Palmer when I was organising my new home through Knight Frank. Lucy was so helpful from the start, answering my many queries promptly and with patience and nothing was too much trouble. She was very knowledgeable when I was completing documentation. I wish all negotiators from other companies were as efficient as Lucy and would highly recommend Knight Frank for buying, selling and renting based on my experience with Lucy.
