Really really bad agency

Really really bad agency, worst service ever encountered, especially the hyde park branch.it is always hard to contact them to get things fixed, or get any in-time reply. When we wanted to renew our contract they always pushed back either later or to someone else and then in the end we couldn't make it;Worst part is that they even ignored our deposit refund request (which should be naturally reasonably refunded), even though we check-out several days in advance + hired professional cleaning service they recommended. Again they pushed back to someone else or to the landlord, or to sometime later, anyway after one month we still haven't got our deposit refund back and there's no one taking care of this, they only care about their next tenant, once the deal is made they are just like "vanished", no service at all, completely mess, wouldn't recommend at all !

Sharks

We have been renting properties managed by CJ Delamere who then turned into Dexters for nearly 8 years. We were never late with our rent and rarely made any demands on the landlords. However, the last time we moved out - they are trying to extract from us over £500 for cleaning a small unfurnished 3 bedroom house and £200+ for tidying the garden. A total of £700 for a small house with just some cleaning? It is now 2 months later - and they still have not repaid our deposit which was nearly £2K. All the house needed was a deep clean for the new tenants. So, make sure you protect your deposit - if not you will enter into a prolonged dispute and make sure to take photographs at the outset of all the damage to the property when you move in.

Hassle free rental

Our letting agent Eunice was great, made everything hassle free for our rental near Broadway market. I'd highly recommend her and Dexter's.

Having had poor experiences with other agents, I genuinely thought Dexters would be the same. Couldn’t have been further from the truth. I’ve used them as property managers for our portfolio for 3 months now and particular credit to Myra Mettam - she has been very attentive to both us and our tenants with no complaints or issues from either side. Long may it continue 👍🏼

Great experience and no complaints

During my time with Dexters I've received great service from them throughout my tenancy, through both issues and enquiries they have been incredibly helpful and had good communication throughout. I'd like to specifically point out Petros Giorganios who has been of great help over the past few months in sorting out a couple of issues and keeping us up to date throughout

I’m Luke warm about my experience with Dexters. I was not impressed with the way they overvalued my property to entice me in. I had to keep on them to get through a cash sale that really should have been much more straight forward although the buyers solicitor was a nightmare. I didn’t really feel they represented my interests fully but they did get a sale in the end. Though it was well below asking price. At the end of the day I felt like just another seller on their conveyor belt

Less than 1 star

I have never dealt with such arrogant and obnoxious letting office. On Saturday 1/10 my partner and I viewed a flat we would liked to rent with one of their agent (she was lovely and showed us around very politely).Right after that we called their office to get a form and put an offer through. Besides the usual questions, I’ve been asked what the offer was, then without even sending us the form or present it to the landlord they told us to come back after the weekend with a better offer and to think about it since on a weekend nothing was going to happen. Moreover they said that the long term solution we were offering was fine and in line with thr landlord requirements but just to check and offer more.3/10Having not heard back from them as they told, we called the office again to have this form sent and we were asked (with arrogance) if we could afford the property or if we had savings (so far we’ve never been asked for those things for a letting).After this, they turn around saying the long term solution we were looking for wasn’t matching the landlord requirements and that they also had an offer above the asking price (so all of the conversation was either to just making us feeling uncomfortable or just a waste of our time). During all this awkward conversation we were uncomfortable and felt treated as if we were the poorest people on earth for them when all they need to do was just send a form and in case a credit check instead of treating people like this.I wouldn’t definitely rent with them or recommend them.

Rubbish

Rubbish, Modern theives, I haven't viewed any property, I haven't sign any forms, is it Lawful just to widraw £430 in one of my account and say its a payment for wasting your time? They sold my personal details to a company with bad reutations and bad reviews. Ask for proof and I will post my statement with dexters witdrawal of £415. Sebastian rubbish is typical.

Uninhabitable apartments and they don’t care

I recently moved into a property with Dexters and unfortunately have had a bad experience. I’m 45 days into my tenancy with them and 13 of those days I’ve gone without hot water and heating.During my viewing I was told many things like that the boiler was new and I shouldn’t expect any problems (I had voiced about my worries with my previous flat regarding water pressure etc). They also tried to pressure me into a 3 year contract without a break clause even though I voiced my concern over my previous rental and how the water problems were not fixed and a break clause after a year was the only way I was able to move out of my previous bad situation. I’m afraid of the same thing happening here as I am already living without hot water for 20% of my tenancy to date and Dexters property management is not showing sympathy for my situation - in fact they just keep saying it’s not their fault the 3rd party contractors don’t show up, accused me of lying and not reporting my boiler issues when I have call logs AND emails to prove that I did and overall saying they are busy and my property is not the only one they are managing. I’m accommodating for multiple engineer visits which are at any hour, any day and have impacted my work as I work from home and they are so frequent. The engineers are just scratching their heads and openly telling me they don’t know how to fix it and they’ll come back the next day to try again.Steer away from Dexters if you want any security with your rental as I have a 2 year contract with no break clause and Dexters property management are too busy to give me timely updates or deal with their contractors.

Fix the hot water issue for one year and still the same

My shower releases hot water every 3 minutes and then cold water and I wait for the hot water comes back by luck. I moved in one year ago and the director of property management Georgina McConell sent at least 5 times to fix the boiler and the issue remains. I explained to her again and again it’s only shower has issues and other taps are totally fine. But she insisted she was right and yesterday she told me she will keep sending boiler engineer to fix it but the point is not the boiler! I already explicitly told her many times she just ignored and claimed she will send boiler engineer and charge me if no issue. So more than one year I haven’t had a full hot shower since I moved in. Of course the issue is still here, this is my second winter no full hot shower because I have 2 year lease! I already seek legal advice, property ombudsman and council to intervene. They will come inspect the issue and prove it is here. Very crazy

Monika Piszczyk - Property Manager

Monika from Dexters Property Management team has been very helpful in chasing the building management company and get things that are under the responsibility of the building management company taken care of. She was also helpful in maintaining communications and update with the landlord and tenants and demonstrate great level of responsiveness to look after the issue with great level of ownership.

The house sale process was made easy throughout, the advice was clear and communication at each stage was very good with regular updates on progress. We were kept updated as to who would be viewing the house and when. All the people I dealt with were helpful and personable. My only other comment is that different people were the contact point at different times which was a function of the holiday period which I understand but not ideal.

End of tenancy nightmare

As a tenant, Dexters were largely fine as a management agency - issues were (mostly) sorted relatively quickly, although there were a couple of occasions where we reported an issue, someone came to have a look, said they needed to order a part, and no follow up ever came. Trying to get through to someone was often quite painful as you get bounced from department to department. The low rating comes from their behaviour after we gave notice to end the tenancy. The flat was advertised for about six weeks and we had constant requests for viewing over that period, often with less than an hour's notice. We asked repeatedly for more notice for viewings (and we were extremely flexible so this wasn't a case of us offering 30 mins' availability per week). They seemed to interpret this as 'give the same short notice but apologise for it being short notice'. When one of us said we couldn't accommodate a particular time, they'd try calling the other tenant. They turned up when we'd said we couldn't accommodate a viewing at such short notice. The concept of making block viewing bookings didn't seem to occur to them - when we suggested this via email it was ignored. They also turned up late on several occasions for agreed viewings and gave garbled excuses - if they'd have just given us a heads up that someone was running late it would have been fine, but they genuinely seemed to expect us to slot them in at their leisure. On several occasions after viewings the agent left every single light on in the flat (including for viewings in broad daylight) - no thought for our electricity bills.

Troubles managed with patience

In my personal experience, I had some problems finding the person to share the apartment I wanted with, thus there have been various changes in the second tenant for the apartment, but all of them have been handled real-time and most importantly with patience and professionally by my agent Nadia that was managing the deal. Also all details of the property have been explained clearly and multiple times.
