Great service and help

Luke and the team at Savills were brilliant in helping us find our new apartment. We were able to secure our dream place under market value and the entire process has been more than smooth. Definitely recommend.

Excellent property manager

This is a rating specifically for Tamsin Montague. She has been an outstanding property manager of our rental house in Buckinghamshire. She has been proactive, thorough, communicative and professional throughout all our dealings with her. I highly recommend Tamsin.

Great service, especially Danielle - as ever professional and very helpful on all matters rental. They are the best in sevenoaks and we’ve tried a number of letting agencies.

The service was predominantly good

The service was predominantly good but occasionally the service was slightly disappointing in that incorrect information was supplied by Savills as it turned out due to incorrect information being supplied to them from the seller's solicitor - this was at times frustrating.

Terrible experience with the lettings…

Terrible experience with the lettings dept. It appears that they are in cahoots with the landlords they service. In my opinion there are many properties that are not managed properly or safely.If properties are turned over regularly, bad landlords will keep your deposit and the agency are happy as they get another admin fee for the next tenant. Really unscrupulous! Currently building a website so tenants can review agencies and landlords. Seems unfair that landlords can request references from past landlords yet tenants don't have the same privilege. Avoid Savills, they are not interested in you, in my experience. Will never use again.

Abusers

Never work under this company because this company will discriminate you.. forces females to change with males. If they do not like your optical glasses than you are forced to change under your cost while disability act 2010 says very clear: ANY ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD COME UNDER THE EMPLOYER AND NOT EMPLOYEE.. if you try to raise your voice for your rights to be respected than don’t waste it just resign as they will dismiss you.. is a company build with full discrimination and Health & Safety law abuse… any media interested for my evidences on how Savills forced members of staff to carry out certain duties around chemicals area (one of the area is published as profile picture) or forced members of staff to put their hands inside a 400v electricity box without the correct PPE equipments I am quite happy to share my evidences with images and videos…very soon I will publish the photos and videos in every media that are interested.My profile photo is from one of the sites managed by Savills. They wouldn’t allow security staff to carry any torch during the night: based on their opinion it doesn’t look good (ignoring the health and safety).FURTHER UPDATE: THAT EMAIL HAS RECEIVED FURTHER EMAIL FROM ME…Very soon I will publish every single communication standing for my dignity which led to my dismissal and negligence by Savills regarding my dismissal and mental issues caused by Savills …. Savills management forced me as the only female to change at same room with men from September 2020 until 30th of March 2021 which led to my dismissal because in the women day I stood up as a woman for my own dignity and other women being forced to change around men and their intimacy and privacy was raped on different shapes by Savills.The place is called London Bridge City in London Bridge, London, England. Owned by St Martins and managed by Savills. I tried to raise the issues with Savills Managment but it led me to be dismissed, under psychological depression…

I wouldn’t hesitate in recommending Savills if you’re looking to sell or buy a property.

We sold our Cheshire property through Savills and were delighted with the service.

Truly the worst experience of my adult…

Truly the worst experience of my adult life. Blatantly (& unlawfully) lied & used coercive unfair business practices to get a property agreed, then lied at every turn thereafter, completely mismanaged and abdicated their responsibilities, didn’t keep agreements or their word, cost me thousands and thousands of pounds and months of unspeakable acute stress for a property that was uninhabitable, and took no responsibility for anything. Was forced to have to rent elsewhere and pay for two properties as a result of their fraud, deceit and bullying. Even my seasoned solicitor is appalled by their outrageous behaviour and conduct. Avoid at all costs. If possible to give no stars I would.

I had a very difficult transaction as a seller. The property had been vacant for a few years after a major renovation and left some open permits so when the offer was accepted, I had a nightmare trying to put all docs together. Marius had stretched way beyond his role and helped significantly. It was a lengthy process with unlimited documents to provide and Marius didn't quit. He helped me through this entire process. Thank you, Emma and Marius, to make this happen.

Scamed at Fletton Quays "car park misled "

I bought a duplex at Fletton Quays with a Savills sales assistant I have made a mistake of trust her, I even used PCS as her recommended, unfortunately I received all paper work one day before completion and have not occurred to me that they would change the car parking plans, now I stuck with a car park that is totally different from what was sold and show Savills and the sales assistant answers were, sorry nothing we can do, lessons learned, never ever buy from Savills again and never trust anyone , Byers please be aware.

Transparent, Professional, and Responsive

Zoe and the Savills team helped make our relocation from the US an absolute breeze. They were so responsive and transparent throughout the entire process, and provided so much useful information from the outset for what we could anticipate throughout the letting process and getting moved into our flat. The team was very helpful in navigating our first experience with renting a flat in the UK, and they were very flexible about accepting alternative documentation for ex-pats who didn't yet have records in the UK. The icing on the cake is that we absolutely love our flat -- it's much nicer and larger than we would have ever imagined a flat in Zone 1/2 could be. We would absolutely recommend working with the Savills team.

Simply the best

If you are looking for a direct, professional and legitimate company to help you find the perfect property, Saville's is truly the only way to go. Specifically, Mark Fell goes above and beyond. The amount of time and energy I wasted trying to work with other letting agencies still haunts me to this day. I should have just called Mark sooner, but at least I ultimately did. He found a dream property for me within a week and was smart, professional and quick to get paperwork figured quickly and with little headache. He was courteous and kind, and I felt I could trust him with my inquiries and with the weight of ultimately finding a home to live in. A wonderful, easy and stress-free letting experience with an incredible agent.

Useless

Having failed to sell our house for the 2nd time, they then went and demanded part of the sales fee from an agent that then did sell it to one of Savills viewers the first weekend the house was relaunched. They relied on their Terms of Business to extract some money of the agent who actually worked effectively to sell the property. The buyers themselves refused to deal with Savills after the first viewing. Also lots of 'positive' viewings that we then heard nothing back from the viewers - ok not always the agents faults but vet your clients first - especially in COVID times when its not ideal having a bunch of time wasters seeing your property. Would never buy or sell through this form again. One word to some them up - Useless.

Sophie Candlin is all I have to say.

Brilliant service received by Sophie Candlin, she was process driven, prompt and my vocabulary is too limited to express the joy of dealing with Sophie when on search for our ideal home. I work in a demanding environment of luxury also supplying service and if Savills don't acknowledge her talent then, she will always have a managerial role with me! as I had dealt with many agents whilst on my search prior to Sophie and they are no match! Thank you for all your help and continued help even since moving into our new place.

Kone lift told me that de take 3 weeks for repairs lift. I am living in the 5 th floor. It is difficult to go up and down. The stair is very small , as sneakers. I called to savillis , he said to me. We can’t help to you because this product for lift is not coming about 3 weeks. Don’t call again here. They just want to rent apartment but nothing is working here. This company isn’t good enough for me.

Bidding wars

This company uses biding wars to pit potential tenants against one another, its such a morally bankrupt thing to do. They will likely excuse this as common practice rather than feel the deep shame that they should feel on an individual level and collectively

Absolutely shocking service

Absolutely shocking service. My husband and I finally found our dream home. I phoned the Savills office to arrange a viewing to be turned away due to alot of interest in the property and already over 20 viewings arranged. I phoned again a week later as the property was still listed on the market. I was then told that they have over 60 viewings and that they were waiting for offers. Very disappointed in this estate agent as we are fully prepared to commit and are now having to search all over again. Don't waste your time on this estate estate, total waste of time.

I have been putting this off because I…

I have been putting this off because I have always hated to complain as I have been worried about repercussions, and used to be an optimistic and reasonable person. However, given recent events I just want to highlight that people should be very cautious when thinking about using this company. The horrendous racial abuse written by one of their employees epitomizes the whole bullying culture. It won't let me give zero stars or I would. We have gone through absolute hell dealing with this company for two years. In that time we have been lied to, fobbed off, bullied, threatened, and generally treated like utter morons. Due to their continued lack of communication and intimidation they have destroyed our business, our mental health, and almost destroyed our relationship as a consequence. I am well aware that the individuals we have dealt with don't give a stuff about our lives and have come to believe that they would probably be quite relieved if we both dropped dead from stress or committed suicide. Problem solved. Please don't bother with the generic ' we take complaints seriously' rubbish because you really don't, therefore it's rather pointless contacting you. I could say a lot more but due to my mental state I just cannot be bothered.

If I could give -5 stars

If I could give -5 stars, I would. Savills is the worst letting agency I’ve ever dealt with. We lived in a lovely flat for 2 years and had nothing but headaches. Our agent actively worked against us, claiming she had nothing to do with the issues with their accounting system messing up our rent multiple times. She couldn’t help us at all when we tried to get our electricity set up, claiming that there wasn’t even a metre?! We lost hot water in the building multiple times for multiple days and were never even apologised to for the inconvenience. The lift was down frequently. The intercoms were rubbish and savills always claimed ignorance. Then to top it off at the end our our two year lease, we asked to sign again and they presented us with a new rental price 10% above what we had paid. All that and they raised rent our second year anyway. Savills cares only about taking your money. They are the ultimate predators of London. Avoid at all cost if you are a renter.
