TrustpilotExcellemt sale of small barn and orchard
Strutt and Parker provided a first class service despite the value of the sale being relatively small. Ian Daniels was always attentive and patient. He negotiated an excellent deal from our perspective

In 1992 Strutt and Parker sold me a lovely house in Kent with a small estate, presented with complete honesty as to its drawbacks but clearly showing its immediate attractions, and its serious potential. For the next thirty years, they offered guidance and support as I kept track of the market in deciding when to sell. That led to a very satisfactory sale of the property in 2014 and successful outlying sales in 2020. What I valued above all was the knowledge of the market as it applied to our part of Kent, the clear communication of the situation and the consideration and discretion that accompanied it.

I highly recommend Strutt and Parker Lettings. I have been using them (Formerly Roberts Newby) in Gerrards Cross for seven years to rent property to me and my family. We are tenants in our third property from them at the moment! They have been an outstanding letting agent and managing agent throughout. The agents seem to always be available to help with any issues, they get repairs done quickly and without drama, and they seem to liaise extremely well with the landlord/owners. I am a demanding customer so it says a lot for me to give such high ratings. They truly get things done, and have kept us very happy!

TrustpilotExcellent letting service
I just rented a new apartment through Strutt & Parker in Gerrards Cross. From the moment I contacted Katie and Charlotte in lettings, I’ve had nothing but a professional and efficient service. I had an issue with referencing as I’ve not been in the UK for a long period and hence, my credit history was limited. Charlotte and Katie did everything possible to convince the Landlord that I was a reliable and trustworthy tenant. Thanks to their hard work, the Landlord accepted my application. I also had a few issues within the apartment and these were dealt with immediately and resolved. I have no reservation recommending Strutt & Parker, Gerrards Cross if you’re looking for a rental property or if you’re considering selling/purchasing a home

Strutt and Parker recently sold our property in Norfolk. We were persuaded to reduce the asking price by 7%, which we were disappointed at. Our agent was very helpful until lockdown in February, after which we never saw him again, but only held telephone conversations, until our sale in August. He did not hand over the keys at completion as he was on a day off. we handed over to the purchasers ourselves. Since then we have had no contact, apart from unnecessary advertising by the company. Since the fees were around £15,000, we were disappointed.

TrustpilotFor premium property avoid Strutt & Parker
If you’re renting a premium property, avoid Strutt & Parker. After 15 years of renting through three different agencies, this was by far the worst experience.

TrustpilotWorst company to rent an apartment from. Pure theft.
This is the worst company I have ever rented from (and I have rented from many). They are unprofessional, do not care if you are robbed or had your apartment broken into, and finally will always support the landlord regardless of the circumstance. My apartment was robbed and they told me I could not break my contract and leave as the lardlord and struttandparker denied me so. I reverted to using my break clause (which I initially forced into the contract) which took place in a few months. The apartment I entered was not clean, furniture broken and damaged and they would not change it, and also not to mention their managing company trying to enter my apartment on multiple occasions using their keys while I was inside. This is a terrible money hunting company and I will never recommend them to anyone ever...

TrustpilotAn absolute pleasure
After a terrible experience trying to purchase a property with another agent in June last year, meeting Gina Simpson (from S&P in Herts) was a breath of fresh air. Every query we raised was answered within 24 hours and she seamlessly navigated our purchase from start to finish. Always available, ever professional and just a genuinely lovely person. We cant wait to see her again next week to get the keys to our new family home!

I have been a landlord client of the company for several years. The fees charged for property management are worth every penny, and considering the nature of the task in hand (keeping both landlords and tenants happy) the staff do an absolutely brilliant job. In particular I am always delighted with how quickly I receive statements around this time of year when my tax return is being completed and I usually need the information yesterday!

Top rate service. Very professional handling of a particularly tricky purchase as well as our sale. Couldn't recommend Fiona and Sarah highly enough

TrustpilotGreat people to work with!
We had a great experience working with Strutt & Parker, I'd like to give a 5 stars but our property took long to sell due to Brexit but the team were very professional, informative, they worked by our side to make this property sale and success. We would like to highlight that Steve and Anna are highly customer oriented. We are very grateful with all the support that the team at Strutt & Parker provided to us.

TrustpilotTerrible service from Strutt & Parker Sloane Street
Terrible service from Strutt & Parker on Sloane Street.Alexandra turned up to do a viewing without giving us any notice and on the day we were to move out demanded to do a viewing after I emailed and explained our last 2 days would be hectic and could they give us privacy.She didn’t care and was so happy to get us in but couldn’t wait to get us out and get another tenant in.Nina the lettings manager I had to deal with on several occasions one being we had no fridge freezer or dishwasher working for 6 weeks of moving in.Then there was a gas leak and no oven working all I was told was “You have a microwave,kettle and toaster make do!” No customer care whatsoever.

TrustpilotUnprofessional bunch
I've had a relatively good and quick experience during the process of looking for a rental through Strutt & Parker, the viewing and offer process was quick and dealt with in a professional manner.After the offer was accepted, the experience changed, they were very unhelpful and unfriendly when negotiating the contract.They were somehow helpful when talking about the logistics during the move in day arranging for free parking.Once moved in, the property manager was very unhelpful, I had small queries about the facilities and they took a lot of time to respond and sometimes grossly misinforming us. For example, I was told that I can't change my electricity provider and in the end that proved to be a lie as we could and did change our electricity provider. The stress and work necessary to always go back-forth for the smallest of things is upsetting. Given that the rent for the place is 500/week I was expecting more professionalism but I guess that's too much to ask in a city where there are loads of people willing to pay what they're asking for. Hopefully that would change once Brexit hits the property market. During my interactions with them, I can say that there are very few fairly professional individuals working at Strutt & Parker while the rest are grossly unprofessional.

TrustpilotStrutt & Parker Perth Office
We used the Perth Office to sell our home after the first lock down last year. Hamish and Amy are first class. Despite the continued restrictions they were able to quickly organise the valuation, marketing and viewings. Attracted numerous viewers and received a successful offer within a few weeks of the advert going live online. Concluded the sale quickly without any issues. We would highly recommend them as selling agents for your home.

Dealing with Strutts has been very concise and without fault. They have delivered on tenant within a week of going to market. I'm a happy client.

TrustpilotHad I Wanted a Project I Would Have Bought a Project
As I have been passing through complaint procedures this is my first opportunity to review Strutt and Parker. From ombudsman to court they had ample opportunity to mediate regarding their misstatements. Strutt and Parker were appalling, and my losses as an older woman are insurmountable. They were fortunate I could only afford small claims court, which they opposed wanting a full multitrack trial where the cost being so prohibitive could of left me bankrupt and homeless. Court procedures in a higher track, are robust and difficult for the litigant in person to navigate through. Although I performed weakly at the trial due to the stress and illness they caused me, my case was sound. I won the small action against this national company, the court ruling against them and in my favour. As only a small claim it was limited in the amount of award it could give but gave the maximum at that level. Called a saga by the court, Strutt and Parker claimed a substantial historic boundary feature was part of the property, but that was demolished after viewing. They claimed luxury when nothing worked, the drainage and plumbing, the heating, the fires, unbelievable in the north of England; all of which damaged my furniture, damaged everything; not a home, but squalor, and frozen. They knew and know well the vendor developer Stone Homes who they recommended. In court they claimed I was a knowledgable buyer, they with a 130 years experience in estate agency and me with my my life's investment in my only home.I won against them for their misstatement of the property, I won for the demolished historical artefact, I won against them on their disclaimer, which all meant I won against them on the ombudsman's result in their favour.Strutt and Parker should be reprinting all their UK sales particulars, their disclaimer didn't protect them in court for simple reasons. They should also look at how they engage with the ombudsman which in my experience cannot be trusted.They had the ability and chance to come out well but instead just show contempt for their home buying public.I had trusted Strutt and Parker, they abused that trust.

Thank you to Meena, Petra and all the team who worked hard and achieved a great result with a long term let for my property.

S&P were instrumental in the purchase of our new house. The transaction was really well run by lead Simon Backhouse - responses were timely and constructive and once the deal was struck then a real help in guiding the transaction through to a successful close. if we came to sell then we would have to think very hard about looking further afield for an agent and their area coverage is impressive.

TrustpilotS & P aren't listening !
I am continually bombarded by unsolicited mail regarding my house being on the market in Mid Cheshire.The house has not been on the market since 1978 !After last mail I emailed Adam Palmer to desist from sending it. Doesn't seem to have worked as yet again-another one falls on my hall carpet !

We were really impressed with the team at Strutt and Parker, as a purchaser they helped navigate our offer and negotiation. We asked for help on a couple of other aspects and it was immediately forthcoming and their recommendations of a quality that matched their own service. I hope we aren't in the market again for a while but if we were we wouldn't hesitate to instruct this team.
