TrustpilotJamie at Hunters -South West
Jamie is absolutely brilliant at his job. I could not recommend him more! I choose Jamie from a selection of other agents. He is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and very easy to communicate with. Always willing to pick up the phone and call me to update me on the sale. Jamie went above and beyond for me, I am very grateful. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone! Thank you Jamie

TrustpilotI would completely recommend avoiding…
I would completely recommend avoiding this agency, they are slow to respond, have no information ready at hand and this has possibly been the most annoying process of purchasing a property with them. There was a lot of missing information that I was not provided and they basically only know how to respond when they need something. You will call them and they say they'll get back to you and just disappear. Avoid if possible.

TrustpilotSales progression team lied and not very professional.
We are in the process of buying a bungalow at the moment and the sales progression team told us the vendor had been to sort the electrics and service the boiler..previous tennants had apparently got in debt so electric was cut off..Hunters lied saying this would be sorted. A second viewing 2 weeks later and a wasted 120 mile journey confirmed nothing had been sorted. When we told them we were disappointed with them we were told to leave the property.

GoogleAdrian has been amazing in the selling of my property and also the purchase of my apartment. I am so grateful to him for all the help and support he has given me during this very stressful time. I would definately recommend Hunters at Bromley if selling your property. Nothing is too much trouble and they are always at the end of the phone. Thank you Adrian and Hunters.

TrustpilotAgent Harj was full of fake promises
Agent Harj was full of fake promises. Although he was all smiles and seemed friendly, the minute we left after our viewing he didn’t return texts or calls and shyed away from any contact. After several calls to the agents I finally managed to find out myself that the property had been given to someone else, rather than them calling me to inform me I had to dig this information out of them which was frustrating. Avoid!

TrustpilotRefused due to having children, unlawful discrimination
Contacted this agency regarding a view of 3-bedroom house. The advertisement contained no restrictions regarding families with children. During the phone call, the first question asked was whether we have children. Once this was confirmed, we were immediately refused solely on that basis. I asked several times why this restriction was not stated in the advertisement, but I received no explanation or answer. Refusing access to rented accommodation because a family has children constitutes unlawful discrimination under the Equality Act 2010. Letting agents are legally required to comply with this legislation, regardless of landlord preference. This experience raises serious concerns about the agency’s compliance with UK equality law. I am sharing this publicly so other families are aware.

TrustpilotBad communication
I have been trying to contact them for 4 months in regards to my flat and contract but they are absolutely appalling at responses and making things clear and helpful for those they are letting to. They have sent me in so many different directions on who to contact and have stopped responding to me within one week of me first contacting them. On top of this it took them weeks to respond and report to maintenance issues, and when they did the response I got was rude and abrupt. As well as that they issues weren't resolved fully resulting in me feeling uneasy in what was meant to be my own space. Absolutely awful service and wouldn't even consider letting/renting from them again.

TrustpilotPathetic estate agency
Pathetic estate agency! The guy who is showing properties mixing up addresses and you end up viewing a different one. If you make an offer they show a very keen interest in person then no-one ever comes back to you. The property owners will never get to find out who made offers and they may just losing out on perfectly good tenants…!They do not even talk to each other within the office to relay interest.You get a bunch of promise, but that is all!Laura is useless!

TrustpilotValuation and extension options - excellent service
We contacted Hunters to explore our property options, particularly around extending our home, and to better understand both current and future values. From the outset, the service we received was exceptional. Adam visited our property with genuine interest and took the time to understand how we currently use the space and how we hope to use it in the future. His thoughtful suggestions opened our eyes to possibilities we hadn’t considered, creative yet cost‑effective ideas that could give us the extra space we’ve been craving. What impressed us most was Adam’s honesty and depth of knowledge. He provided clear insight into the current market value as well as the property’s potential, even highlighting grants we might be eligible for. His advice helped us think far beyond our initial plan and gave us confidence in the decisions ahead. Hunters have proven themselves to be true experts in their field, professional, approachable, and genuinely invested in their clients. Adam, in particular, deserves recognition for helping us picture the full potential of our home and for giving us so much to consider. We would not hesitate to recommend Hunters, and if we ever decide to sell, they will be our first choice of agent.

TrustpilotVery unprofessional and rude agents
Very unprofessional and rude agents. They repeatedly called me while I was at work, and when I finally got back to them, they booked a viewing for the next day and told me to meet outside the property at the scheduled time. When I arrived and called their office, they initially lied, saying they would sort it out and call me back. After waiting 20 minutes with no update, I called again, only for them to blame me for going without having received an email confirmation, instead of acknowledging that their agent cancelled the appointment without notifying me. Overall, very unprofessional.
5/5
GoogleHunters Bromley were fantastic throughout our whole buying process, from arranging multiple viewings of the property for us at the beginning right up until completion. They always communicated well with us and went the extra mile to ensure our needs were met.
Thank you for those kind words. Everyone at Hunters wish you well in your first time home, and hope you very much enjoy making wonderful memories.

TrustpilotAppalling group of folks!
Appalling group of folks! This group has no idea what they are doing. we worked with Selina and she was absolutely clueless and brought wrong/unverified information to the table. If I were looking to rent, I would be running as far as possible from this agency or owners they work with! if there were minus points that is what I would give them for ripping a kid off!

TrustpilotCriminals
Misrepresentation, poor service, property management and unlawful practice Unlawful terms in the tenancy agreements, do not uphold their mutual terms as the agent, assume consent to access outside of tenants availability and threaten to break in unlawfully. Have done repairs in house that have caused injury and condition of rental has damaged tenant belongings, mould not disclosed, just covered up to blame tenant later when we leave, constantly asking for access and putting employment at risk but accuse tenant of breach when asked for compensation as in the tenancy agreement . Barely manage property unless theyve been reminded something important has expired. Estate agent happy to make threats to break and enter without legal knowledge, on behalf of a company that is owned by another agent that is well known for illegal practice, unsure if landlords know the legality of the contracts they've signed with Hunters without knowing and checking whether the terms are legal and lawful. Convinced they will be attempting to take money from the deposit as a form of ponzy scheme that pays for more unsafe repairs in propertys, check your doors, lights bulbs and curtain rails dont fall on your child's head, and if the property sets on fire Hunters will deny any accountability, so I doubt they will have integrity in the case of death and if you lose your job because of them they'll kick you out after breaking in (illegally) to make it possible to kick you out. Staff cant cope with reading lots of words in a row, so they don't acknowledge or respond to complaint and the staff will reframe anything you say or do in their favour anyway. Eve's review confirms our experience, its almost the same. They will evict if you ask them to ensure your home is safe and to uphold their mutual terms of the tenancy, they do not follow the eviction to repossession procedure lawfully and expect you to agree to hand the keys back by the notice period they decide at random without serving recorded notice and further violating access law. Using commercial laws for residential properties hoping noone will notice and they will not be accountable when the landlord is in court at their own expense.

GoogleThe staff at Hunters went over and above to make sure that the rental process from first viewing to moving in was really smooth and as stress-free as possible. Thank you so much to the team and in particular to Daniella who has been fantastic! Communication is prompt and the apps they use are great and make all services really accessible. Would highly recommend!
Shelley, thank you for your kind review, I will reward Daniella with a box of chocolates for her special mention.

TrustpilotHunters - Tring - useless
Given that the purpose of an estate agent is to bring sellers and buyers together, as a potential buyer I found Hunters service abysmal I tried to make a viewing appointment for a property they had for sale. They said they would phone or email me. Nothing. Tried again two days later. Person I spoke to seemed surprised at what had happened and said would get back to me. Nothing. Were I to be selling a property, I would not be using this estate agency. Perhaps they only do it as a hobby.

TrustpilotMoney for nothing
Make no mistake they aren't worthy of even one star! This Hunters franchise (Sea Road Sunderland) and their so called MD Chris Kelly and his team failed to carry our property inspections and investigate complaints from neighbours in relation to the neglect and horrendous decline of my property over a three year period. We as landlords put our faith in the letting agent and trust they will do a good job in managing our properties. I'm now £7k down trying to repair the property to a good standard. The failure of this company to manage the property and the tenants has left me significantly disadvantaged. Mr Kelly has not responded to my many complaints and requests for compensation and has instead left the franchise, no doubt to make another fortune charging 15% off the back of other unsuspecting landlords! Hunters are a company well known and trusted in our area but be warned, these agents are hiding behind that brand and are able to operate without scrutiny or regulation!!

TrustpilotA reliable estate agent
Hunter Estate Agent provides exceptional service to its clients, and Bo Tsang exemplifies this with his outstanding dedication and professionalism. His commitment to excellence sets a high standard for customer service in the real estate industry. His attention to detail, prompt communication, and expertise make the selling or buying process seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend Hunter Estate Agent, especially Bo Tsang, for anyone looking for a reliable and efficient real estate experience.

GoogleThe app showing payments is great and allows me to keep an eye on tenants paying into my account.Any day to day problems Myles and Adrian are quick to respond and have been open or available during lock-down. If you have a portfolio i would recommend you get in touch with them as the Hunters App is really useful,especially when your Accountant asks for a breakdown of payments at tax return time.
Thank you for your kind review, it is very much appreciated when our extensive investment in technology is recognised.

TrustpilotVery bad customer service.
Very bad customer service. I requested for a viewing and the agent texted me over WhatsApp about the viewing times and said viewing can be done only on weekends and evenings. No other estate agents texted me over WhatsApp and others called me directly when I made a inquiry and even scheduled my viewing appointment according to my preference but this agency seemed not so interested in selling the property or whatever. Next thing when he finally had a suitable time for my viewing, I had to cancel the viewing because my car was in the garage and they said it was not ready for collection so I called the estate agent to inform him about it and this guy was so rude. He didnt even say bye and just hung up. Very disappointed.

TrustpilotUNPROFESSIONAL AND DISHONEST
Hunters Stevenage is extremely unprofessional and dishonest!I want to caution everyone considering them before handing over a deposit, as they will go to great lengths to keep your money.I had been renting for eight years prior to this, in various properties with different agents, and never encountered any issues with the return of my deposit.It's incredibly frustrating trying to get a response from them, even through email. Without a doubt, they are the worst estate agent I've ever had to deal with. I lived in a rented house through them for nearly two years but recently purchased my own place through Own Homes (which hasn't had any issues).Hunters is currently refusing to refund my deposit after two months, citing a small rip in the carpet near the radiator pipe and a crack in the bath. Both of these issues were present when I first moved in.They are taking an unreasonable stance and are also claiming an inability to communicate with the landlord for nearly a month. They're even using minor issues like mold on the bathroom sealant and three burnt-out light bulbs as reasons not to return my deposit.Furthermore, after two months, they are now trying to deduct money from my deposit, citing a weed issue in the front garden.Letting Manager sent me an email at 7:14 PM, and immediately after that, I went to the house and took photos to document the situation. It's truly baffling how unreasonable they are being.I consistently paid the rent on time and took excellent care of the house while I was there, even installing a new shower. However, I'm currently facing issues retrieving my deposit, as I had to hire a cleaning company to restore the house to its original condition. This has been an ongoing process please be cautious when dealing with Hunters Stevenage!!!"

TrustpilotAwful experience
Awful experience. Poor repairs. Illegal eviction - should have been a section 8 as landlord was selling up and tried to use the deposit for renovating the property into a HMO. Hunters also charged the previous tenants for professional cleaning which we were told would be happening in the first week or so of moving in. It didn't. They then tried to charge us for the same service. Wonder how many customers they do this to. Also charging for items not on the property but given to a neighbor, and later thrown out by him on his own garden area q(he advised landlord and hunters it was his to get rid of). They have identified it as formerly mine from property inspection photos which legally should not be taken of my possessions. Con artists. Pending further action.

TrustpilotTotal scammers!
Total scammers!! Do NOT recommend at all!! I rented with with them for 4 years, was okay at first then it gotten difficult to get things properly fixed, they left us without a fridge and freezer for over a year so I had to buy my own! They send out the same repair men that told me over and over again they could t properly fix various things as it needed updating and my landlord was refusing to update (handyman’s words not mine). We had a mice infestation that I had made them aware of but nothing was done and they ended up coming into the house eating through all my kids Easter eggs and our snacks and my sons make a wish documents amongst other important documents!! I had to pay for the infestation to be sorted, I have paperwork that states the things that needed doing to stop them and they didn’t do half of it!! There was insufficient loft insulation, single glazed windows and no wall insulation so it was beyond freezing unless I had the heating on constantly. They didn’t carpet or decorate in god knows how long!! I paid £2800 deposit to stay in this house!! They then said as I was pregnant there would be too many people living in the property so I said okay can I please have a rent statement to get onto the council and was told by corena she would email this to me but this went on for about 6 months and she then sends me an eviction notice instead so I said okay can I have the rent statement she still refused! A year later I get the rent statement.. then another eviction notice. Their reason was my landlords granddaughter had cancer and needed to sell up to pay for treatment (she knew one of my sons was a cancer survivor and she also knew my youngest son is fighting a brain tumour!) she used my personal circumstances as a tool against me. I tried so hard to move out quickly but eventually got a property with the council.She caused 2 years of horrifying mental breakdowns, I have adhd and so you can imagine the impact it had! She never done and entrance or exit inventory with me, she next done entrance or exit key handover so the crook covered her bases.!! This wasn’t her first rodeo!!I have been informed by neighbours of repairs etc carried out since I left the property and also about the new tennants living there so they never sold the property.Social services are trying to help get my deposit back, the so called deposit guarantee scheme said there was nothing they could do as it was never with them!! So I had a look on company’s house at them… I suggest if your considering renting from hunters you look on companies house at them too!! They are a bunch of scammers and they keep getting away with it!!They have now left us with absolutely nothing! I’m a single mum having to furnish and carpet a house with next to no money struggling to decide if my kids need a bed or food, carpets or gas, curtains or electric!! I was told a survey of dilapidation was being done and that turned out to not be true!! I have asked numerous times about my deposit and she doesn’t reply to nothing! She ignores everything. She has stolen £2800 from me and my children. I have 2 autistic children and 1 is a cancer survivor and 1 has a brain tumour I have a lot of worries already with them without this worry about loosing so much money that was needed to benefit my children. British Gas had to swap the meter as per the request from the ombudsmen and corena Harris told me I’d better put them back I have this and more in messages!! I said I can’t as that is breaking the law and she wasn’t happy at all.. the old meters didn’t work!! I can only hope people do not make the same mistake as myself and put their trust in these despicable people!! Have a look on companies house before considering renting from them!!£2800 is a lot of money for a single mum with 6 children and 3 of which are very poorly and one is fighting a brain tumour you ask yourself what kind of person does that!!
