Shaun Blackstock - Best Lettings Negotiator !!

My great experience with Winkworth was 100% thanks to Shaun Blackstock. He was experienced and knowledgeable about the area, was super informed about the property and answered all of our questions and more. Additionally, he was very personable and made our experience run very smoothly. Best Letting Negotiator I have had the pleasure of interacting with.

I am very deeply disappointed!

We've been with the agency since 2017th. We've been having problems with the very old boiler since the end of 2018th and up until now we have had Engineers coming for that boiler around 20 times. We were promised a permanent solution, that never happened. Now we have been left without hot water for 2 weeks, starting 3rd. There were many apologies and promises over the last two weeks but no action upon. Not to say they are well aware we have a vulnerable child at home (how do you manage personal hygiene in times of pandemic with a heart diseased child at home?) AND we offered to help if Landlord doesn't want to invest in resolving the issue. Just a note: Landlord is local home owner and is not paying mortgage on the property we rent, the house used to belong to grand parents.Although there are some very kind people working in the company the company on overall isn't what it should be.I am very deeply disappointed!One upset mum xx

Great rental experience with Winkworth Kensal Rise. The team are very personable and knowledgeable, and Fabian went above and beyond to make what would normally be a stressful experience very seamless. Thank you !

Great team

Everyone that I dealt with at Winkworth was personable, professional and dedicated to service. I was impressed with the dedication of the agent who showed me properties (Fabian Bachelor) He supported me in finding my new home.

Excellent service from Thomas!

I recently purchased a flat through Winkworth - Thomas was my estate agent and was fantastic throughout. It ended up being quite a long process and Thomas was great at chasing up the solicitors and helping to move the purchase along. He gave great recommendations for a homebuying survey and was really helpful on both viewings - would highly recommend. Thank you Thomas!

Great customer service

The whole team have been great at finding a buyer for our flat. They kept us regularly up to date and shared honest feedback. Nicola was great in the after sales process and pushing through to exchange with the buyers. Would highly recommend if you are selling or buying a property.

Didn't respond to an enquiry then lied

Didn't respond to an enquiry. Prompted, then lied about property status/availability. Shut down responses when questioned about it. The standard of English estate agents is abysmal compared to those abroad, yet people accept this low level, amateurish behaviour...so they get it!

We’ve had an excellent experience with our property manager, Michael Ferguson. He is consistently responsive and proactive, which gives us real peace of mind as landlords.

Very annoying

Very annoying is putting it politely. Winkworth put a To Let sign outside my property. This was crudely attached to my front wall with masonry nails, damaging the pointing. I have never approached Winkworth and am not letting my property. I had to make three telephone call, each time being promised that the sign would be removed. I was then called back by someone from Winkworth who did not know why they were calling, me, only that they had been asked to call me. I was then put on hod for so long that I gave up. Three weeks later, the sign has not been removed.

We've dealt with Sarah Russell Lettings Manager at Winkworths Hove for almost five years. If we could give 10 stars we would. Her professionalism, sensible approach to any issue raised and her ability to balance tenant and landlord expectations is second to none. If you are considering letting a property or you are a tenant, then you are very lucky indeed to have her in your corner. In an era of poor customer service, it was a breath of fresh air dealing with Sarah and all the team at Winkworths.

Professional and local knowledge experts

Tom was brilliant for us. Valuation was truthful, his communication was direct and insightful. Throughout the sales process which, never goes smoothly, Tom was talking to me every day via whatsapp to make sure it all went smoothly and we kept everyone happy through a scary period of interest rate rises. Cannot recommend Winkworth and Tom enough. Thank you.

Thank-you team Winkworth Poringland…

The whole team at Winkworth Poringland were outstanding. Our house sale was particularly protracted and challenging, yet they held my hand all the way! Given that I was going through an unsavory divorce at the same time, their tenacity and professional respect was most appreciated. Always helpful and encouraging, a big shout out goes to Jade McGarvey and her team! Thank-you.

Great for selling a house and keeping me informed

We have just exchanged on a house that was shown by Winkworths. I can't praise them highly enough, particularly Terry as we didn't have an agent who sold our house so had to continually contact Winkworths instead. They always returned my calls and always kept us up to date with everything throughout. I would very happily sell my house through them next time we sell. Thank you for all your help!

First Home Purchase

I have just exchanged on my first home and cannot thank Thomas Syms enough for guiding me through the entire process. He was very quick at responding to me, provided great advice, offered some fantastic recommendations for mortgage advisors and surveyors and made the whole experience seem simple and exciting. Thank you!

If only we could give a 0 score. Worst letting agent we have ever had the misfortune of coming across. No communication, no call backs, no explanations and no assistance. Avoid

Shaun and Aaron were amazing

Shaun and Aaron were amazing! The best real estate agents I have ever dealt with. Found us the most amazing property and helped us secure it and get it over the line in the most efficient and effortless way possible. They are both very friendly, honest and had great communication. Over all the they are both excellent at their jobs and car about their clients. Both went above and beyond in making this horrible process seem like a piece of cake!
