TrustpilotDisappointed
Disappointed, we learned our house purchase had fallen through at the point of us being ready to exchange on our property. We found out that the office had known about it and left it to the agent, who had been looking after us, to tell us after she came back from annual leave! We never got a reason for the purchase to fall through and they even tried delaying us putting an offer in on another property. Luckily this was with another agent and we trusted our gut as the trust with Hunters had gone. 7 weeks later we were in our new home. Felt let down and disappointed with Hunters. This was our first and last time dealing with them.

TrustpilotMy experience with Hunters was deeply…
My experience with Hunters was deeply disappointing. Repeated administrative errors relating to notices and tenancy handling caused unnecessary delays, additional time, and avoidable stress during possession proceedings. When I recently contacted the branch again regarding future instructions, I was informed in a dismissive manner that they no longer wished to work with me due to previous disputes, disputes which arose from their own handling failures. Professionalism, accountability, and respectful communication appear seriously lacking based on my experience!

TrustpilotInvasion of privacy-HUNTERS LETTING AGENTS IN TRING-why not answering e mails matters
HUNTERS LETTING AGENTS IN TRING Thinking of renting via Hunters in Tring? My experience is very poor, at the moment they are not even replying to my e mails. Have had lots of problems with hot water etc, but my Xmas has been ruined by landlord taking it upon themselves to enter my home, poke around, opening cupboards etc, comment on water heater left on, all whilst I am away, under the pretext of a non essential repair that has been outstanding for 4 months at least. Hunters seem to think this is all ok, no reply to any of my e mails (nothing new there), for the last 4 days. I think this is really irresponsible behaviour by a letting agent as this feels like an invasion of privacy, am struggling to get early flight home to try to stop this from happening. I think there are good reasons why Hunters don't actively have a trust pilot account, on reading the reviews that is understandable.

TrustpilotEnquired about a property
Enquired about a property. Travelled a round trip of 10 hours to view said property. Landlord accepted application but needed to contact freeholder to seek permission to let. Original chap I was dealing with was superb, but he went on leave. Hunters then left me sat for a week without communication, and let to someone else during that period. Absolutely infuriating waste of time and effort and an appalling way to treat a potential customer. Don't go near them.

GoogleHunters have been managing a let for me and my siblings since just before the pandemic. They have been professional and friendly throughout. Terri brings a wealth of experience to the lettings side and Tony is ahead of the curve on local sales. We plan to sell our flat at the end of the year and will be asking Tony to handle the sale.
Hi Tim, Thanks for the fabulous review! Always a pleasure working with you guys and we look forward to helping with your sale later this year :)

Trustpilot"Avoid Hunters Property Management
"Avoid Hunters Property Management, Inefficient, Rude, and Unprofessional" My experience with Hunters Property Management has been extremely disappointing and frustrating. They have consistently demonstrated poor service, inefficiency, and a dismissive attitude towards tenant concerns. Ineffective Issue Resolution: Hunters fails to handle even basic maintenance issues. For example, a heating issue during winter was passed to the landlord without any attempt to troubleshoot. I had to step in and take personal risks to resolve the problem myself, only to discover it was a simple battery replacement. Their inability to perform even basic triage highlights their lack of professionalism and problem-solving capabilities. Creating Gaps Between Tenants and Landlords: Instead of acting as a competent mediator, Hunters merely relays messages between tenants and landlords, causing delays and unnecessary misunderstandings. This approach has damaged the relationship between myself and the landlord, as the agency often fails to communicate effectively or accurately. Rude and Dismissive Behavior: The staff frequently respond to concerns with a dismissive tone, making tenants feel unsupported and undervalued. Their arrogant demeanor gives the impression that addressing tenant concerns is a favor rather than their responsibility. Neglecting Tenant Safety and Comfort: Health and safety issues, such as rat infestations and malfunctioning alarms, were not addressed promptly, despite the serious risks they posed. The lack of urgency in handling these matters has caused significant stress and discomfort for my family. Minimal Value Added: Hunters operates more like a messenger than a property management service. They fail to provide meaningful solutions and seem content to pass the burden of responsibility onto others, leaving tenants to fend for themselves. Overall, Hunters Property Management has proven to be unprofessional, inefficient, and dismissive. Both tenants and landlords deserve better. I strongly advise against using their services if you value timely resolutions, respect, and effective communication.

TrustpilotHunters are not interested
Hunters let the house adjacent to ours. There have been multiple pipe leaks around the bathroom causing flooding which in turn is causing damp smells on our side due to the length of time taken to address the issues. It's been repaired after four weeks now within hours water is currently coming through the ceiling next door soaking our party wall and they have told the tennant it's livable no problem. Hopefully they won't charge them for a wet room!!!

GoogleAfter trying our luck with 2 other agents in town we came across Tony at Hunters, he was confident and professional in selling our property, arranging consistent viewings despite an extremely unpredictable market during the pandemic. Throughout the legal process, Terry was also always on hand to chase solicitors and encourage things to keep moving. If we could provide any advice to sellers and or buyers entering this process, it would be to do your research and choose your solicitors wisely - even if they are recommended by the agent. From offer to completion it took us over 4 months to sell a 2 bed flat with no chain. Comparatively, during this time, we watched our neighbours achieve the same in 4 weeks. Even after ‘completion’ over 2 weeks ago, we are still waiting for final payments to be made from the buyers side. Thank you to Tony and Terry for all of your help throughout this arduous journey!
Hi Rachael, Thanks so much for your kind review and we are delighted that we were able to find you good buyers when other agents fell short. It's unfortunate that the conveyancing process took as long as it did and obviously we did all we could to keep the process progressing throughout. It is very difficult when recommending solicitors as the service can vary from one transaction to the next. The problems exprienced at the end of the process are unprecedented and not at all reflective of their usual service but regardless I hope that matters are resolved to your satisfaction soon. Thanks again to both Rory and yourself for being patient, understanding and a pleasure to work with. We wish you all the very best for the future :)

I have been struggling for months to find a decent flat to rent. I tried several letting agents, but none of them could find a suitable place for me. However, I finally found Hunters Letting Agents, and I want to thank Amy for guiding me through all the necessary steps to secure my flat. I would highly recommend Hunter Letting Agents to anyone in search of a rental property.

TrustpilotDamaged our house, and we're not even their clients!
Hunters hung a "for sale" sign on our property, which was a surprise to us, since we were neither selling nor letting the property. When asked to take it down, four visible holes have been left in the wall of our home. It has been six and a half weeks, and the holes are still there. In a couple of weeks, we're going to need to escalate this to the ombudsman. Frankly, I'd be happy with getting the cost of some filler from them and doing it myself. Companies need to be held responsible for damage - they cannot be let off with an "oopsie, my bad".

I had an outstanding experience working with Gary as my estate agent. From the very beginning, he was professional, approachable, and incredibly knowledgeable about the market. He took the time to understand my needs and guided me through every step of the process with clarity and patience. What really stood out was Gary's communication - he kept me informed at all times, promptly answered questions and made what could have been a stressful experience feel smooth and manageable.

TrustpilotViewed a rental property
Viewed a rental property. I wanted to proceed but then told they wanted to collect more interest and no communication whatsoever. Absolute shocking service and wouldn't recommend at all. Thankfully I got no further with my application, well I guess I don't know cause they never come back to me. What a joke!!

Trustpilotlettings fees are very high
For lettings their fees are very expensive. First 3 months of my 450 rent studio flat they took and I did not get anything. When tenant leaves another month will be gone as inventory check is 180 and cleaning in 250 and this is for a studio flat. If i want to cancel the contract i have to pay 900. Stay away.

GoogleA massive thank you to Terri for all her help in finding me a home to rent. I was really under pressure to find somewhere and she has made the process seamless. The communication as been 5 star and everything has just been easy, which has made a big difference. Thank you to Terri and the team, I would highly recommend Hunters!
Hi Amy, thanks so much for your kind review which I have passed on to Terri. Great that we could be of assistance and we wish you well in your new home :)

GoogleDue to the whole COVID situation, I was forced to relocate 200 miles all the way to East Grinstead. After numerous painful trips & viewings, Terry Franzel from Hunters called me up (glad she did) for a property available on the market. Loved it and gave the green signal to go ahead. Given my uncertain situation, Terry went out of her way to get all documentation, EPC check, keys, pending work in the flat etc.. done in 1 day!! Absolutely amazing and makes me feel lucky to have received that phone call in the first place. She certainly made this difficult relocation much much easier. I would recommend her highly as she's got a very strong work ethic.
Thank you for your wonderful words Mohammad. It was a pleasure working with you. I am glad we managed to get things organised smoothly and quickly. Wishing you both a fabulous time in your new home and do wave when you walk past.

TrustpilotI have only great things to say about Hunters Middleton!
I have only great things to say about Hunters Middleton branch! From the very first phone call right up to exchanging contacts They have been beyond brilliant. I absolutely loved the pictures of my house and the write up most definitely did my house justice. My house sold within 4 days and I was over the moon with the price!Nicole was the shining star for me- she kept in daily contact and was the most reassuring and helpful person every single step of the process. She chased up people when they needed it ensuring the sale moved along at pace. Thank you so much Hunters but especially a massive thank you to Nicole- you have been amazingly!

TrustpilotDisappointed is an understatement..
To say we’re disappointed with the level of communication from the Horncastle Branch with Michael and Susan Noonan is an understatement and the level of service is a far cry from Michael's commitment to customer experience.Researching this branch shows multi-occasions that this activity has happened here.If you’re viewing a property with the intent to buy, don’t expect them to tell you if any other parties are interested. They’ll just pull it from under your feet along with any visions or excitement of a future you had in said house.Viewed a property two weeks ago, following the viewing we had a really positive conversation with Susan in the office expressing great interest, no more than a week later sold to another buyer with no communication. It would have been professional and courteous to reach out to the buyer but more so to the seller, as I’m certain they would like to have known of other interest. Susan and Michael took away any opportunity or chance to put in any offers, resulting in many wasted hours.I wouldn’t usually leave a review; but the tone in which Susan delivered the news was blunt, lacked any sort of empathy and very closed, to date I am still waiting for a reply to my email which I can only assume has been ignored.We will steer clear of this company for future sales and purchases, knowing that their priority doesn’t appear to be with either buyer or seller.Happy to receive a call or email to discuss our experience with you.

TrustpilotExpert advice! - Thank you Tom Moorhouse!
Expert advice! The lovely Tom Moorhouse came to value our house on 22/08/2026. He gave sound, candid advice which my husband and I are extremely appreciative of. Although we are not in the position to list our house right now (no fault of Tom's), we'll certainly be back within 12 months.

TrustpilotAwful
Awful. Incredibly disorganised. Would establish inspections and never turn up, would constantly email about overdue rent that wasn't overdue. Would pass the blame constantly. Attempted to raise my rent by a "reasonable" £200 a month six months into my tenancy which can only happen every 12 months and cannot be more than the CPI price index; they failed on both counts. Renting is honestly awful, and these clowns pray upon the anxiety of insecurity to get what they want.I have bought a house now, I wish all renters the luck to buy their own homes one day so we never have to deal with letting agents like these ever again.

TrustpilotAvoid This Agency
Avoid This Agency, Completely Fraudulent and Untrustworthy If I could give zero stars, I would. I rented my property through this agency as a family home, but they have illegally turned it into an unlicensed HMO without my consent. Despite repeated promises from their agent Preeti that an HMO licence would be obtained, it never was. My rent has not been paid for over amThree months, and my calls and messages are now being ignored. The tenants contact me directly because the agents refuse to take responsibility. I was told I would be reimbursed for repair costs, I provided all invoices, but not a single penny has been repaid. The condition of my property now is appalling compared to how it was handed over. I have photos showing the before and after, it’s heartbreaking. After losing my father suddenly last year, this house held many memories, all of which have been completely destroyed by their negligence and deceit. Do not trust this company with your property. They are dishonest, unprofessional, and exploit landlords. I strongly urge others to stay away, they will promise everything and deliver nothing.

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
