I have dealt with many property managers over the years and Vanessa at Chestertons is among the best. Always responds swiftly, acts effectively and sensibly. In sum, very happy how she’s looking after the place.

Trustpilot5 Stars review for Chestertons - Andrew
Finding a flat could be very overwhelming. Andrew assisted me every step of the process especially the viewing and offer stages. He really understood my preference from the first call that i had with him. The best agency that I have ever dealt with; very professional and experience.

I currently let my flat through Chestertons and Joyce has recently taken over managing it. She's been an absolute dream, polite, efficient and super helpful, she is a real asset.

Very good at letting the property, 5 stars for that. Howebver incredibly poor at managing maintenance of property - huge delays getting quotes or work done. Tenants very upset as well as us

Best estate agent experience we've had thus far. Stav and Olivia have been super responsive and helpful throughout (from the very beginning arranging flat viewings with us, helping us put in an offer, and answering and solving any queries we've had about the property). Would definitely recommend Chestertons to family/friends!

We had a good experience with Chestertons so far. Moving into the property and signing the contract was pretty straightforward. My only concern is that I've complained about a few things that needed to be renewed in the house a few months back and no one took action.

TrustpilotExtremely unprofessional
Extremely unprofessional, do not use Chestertons if you are a prospective tenant. Company did not turn up to check-in appointment (to deliver keys), don't answer emails and sends aggressive emails whenever they want something. Will never rent an apartment through this agency again.

TrustpilotLethargic service
This company does not nothing for tenants after moving in and are extremely unresponsive when it comes to returning deposits. I had to email the landlord directly to get my deposit returned. It took over 5 weeks to get my money back.
Agent replied · 23 October 2024
Hi there, we're sorry to read of your experience and thank you for responding to our request for further details. We have escalated this to our Property Management team for further investigation and will provide you with an update shortly. ___Updated Response:Hi AS,Thank you very much for your patience whilst we investigated this matter. Unfortunately the process was delayed by the landlord review when you moved out, and the further discussions between them and yourself to resolve a disagreement around charges. Rest assured, we tried our very best to speed up this process and release your deposit as quickly as possible, sincerest apologies if it seemed like we were unresponsive, that’s certainly not how we want our clients to feel. We wish you all the best, and please do not hesitate to get in touch if you need any further assistance.

Cas from the little Venice office was totally fantastic, she went over and beyond what most agents would do, even working after hours to secure me a deal. She wasn’t pushy as I’ve experienced some agents to be. I cannot rate her highly enough. She is an asset to the company
