Savills Hackney have been responsible for looking after us as tenants since September 2021. Whilst it began as pretty underwhelming experience, we made our thoughts known. Specifically commenting about Oliver Hudson here - he has been nothing but professional and empathetic since taking over as our property manager. His timely responses, regular updates on maintenance requests and general care completely turned around our relationship with Savills.

We couldn’t recommend Savills more highly

We’ve been renting a property managed by Savills for just over a year now, and our experience from the start has been exceptional. When we began our property search this time last year, the entire process, from the viewing to moving in, was handled with complete professionalism and ease.

It is a absolute pleasure and delight to deal with Alice Stone. She is always friendly, caring, happy to help and will always go the extra mile to help me. Nothing has ever been too much trouble for Alice whether it’s to change jobs round, getting back to me with confirmations or to answer questions. She is always quick to respond. I always look forward to speak to Alice, she will always make time to have a lovely chat with me. I look forward to carry on working with Alice.

Our sales liaison person was Claire Brice,who we came to appreciate more and more as the sale of our property progressed,mainley because it was not as straight foreward as expected , but Clare dealt with the situation beyond the call of duty many times over.very professional ,but also with a very human touch ,explaining every situation along the way ,so keeping us very much aware of the situation at any given stage of the process ,which we appreciated very much.Defiantly would use Savilles nottingham again,the whole office staff we met where very on the ball MR AND MRS R J SADLER

Another estate agent

Another estate agent, another poor review. The narrative never changes with this profession. They possess a very unhealthy disregard for people generally and prioritise fees over the satisfaction of the general public. This organisation is generally contemptuous of the house buying public and adopt intrusive and unprofessional approaches towards prospective customers

Matt Orchard was a super star from start to finish with selling our house. Always kept us updated through out the process and was very professionally. Would most definitely sell through Savills again.

I been working with sale man call will baker and Jim baker. Be careful guys, biggest cheaters in the world. They take ur offer, and accept the offer they take that offer and go to some else and sale for more or they take more commission and cheat both buyers and sealers. They Don’t know how to talk, very rude, we accepted that’s and we thought just buy the property and don’t have to see them ever again. But we spent our 5k for the solicitors. Ordered all searches before search come back. Even after we having terms and conditions in place. They Agreed to another buyer even after showing full fund available to buy the property. Still cheated us and pulled the plug by putting a one line email. Be careful don’t waste your time. Please try and not use this people avoid your life time earning and time to go in drain. Any one want more information about this just put comment we happy to contact you give you the information.

Dreadful management

I moved in the Heart building a year ago (Walton on Thames). In June we had a shortage of water and the pumps that delivers water to the flats broke. One of them turned functional again after few days, so water was back, but for nearly 4 months we had the other water pump waking us up at night without knowing why or when it would get fixed. We asked multiple times, no replies, we said we wanted to file a formal complain, we have been ignored. The service charge for this building is insane, and yet we had to deal with this for the longest time. Absolutely dreadful.

Issues with Deposit Return

The experience was smooth until it came time to return the deposit. Currently, I am waiting for a substantial deposit to be refunded. Unfortunately, the original account used for the deposit has been closed, and they are refusing to return the funds. I have been advised to seek legal assistance to obtain permission for the deposit to be transferred to another account, which will incur additional costs for me. From my perspective, it appears that they are deliberately trying to retain the deposit.

No accountability

No accountability, sloppy & Rude. Experience over the years with Savills. When looking to buy, they develop an opinion of you when you walk through the door. Be sure to wear a suit and stick a spoon in your mouth. When viewing a property make sure you can work around their agenda and remind them to bring the keys. The letting experience is horrendous. We have watched people come and go here. Noone is inducted with the correct information, they just leave people to it expecting other residents to help out. If you complain you are seen as a major irritation. How can anyone stay in business with this attitude! Their staff need training from top to bottom. Complaints Team, please do not recommend I contact you. We have spoken in the past, your complaints procedure is ineffective. In itself encourages bad behaviour from top to bottom of the organisation.

Horrendous Service

Terrible service - we have moved into a flat managed by Savills, and we have had nothing but headaches during the entire process. Firstly, the referencing process is terrible, we ended up missing our move in date by a week, but were told they could not change the date we started paying rent from to reflect this, despite none of the delays being our fault. They even asked me for my birth certificate the night before we about to make a 6 hour drive to move in - AFTER we had paid the deposit and first months rent, why not ask for this before hand?? So we didn't know if we were able to collect the keys or not the next day - causing much stress after we had already packed up our house. We arrived on a Saturday, and had to get the keys from a security guard - which was fine however despite being told multiple times we would be emailed a Welcome Pack, we did not receive this until 24 hours after moving into the property, meaning we had no idea how to turn on essentials such as heating and hot water as this was not straightforward. We also were not able to access the meter reading at all to setup our energy accounts. To sum up, service is horrendous, painfully slow and you will be waiting hours if not days for a response, and every time you call to chase they say someone will get back to you that day, but they never do. Savills have caused us a great amount of stress and difficulty during our entire moving process.

Terrible estate agent who rather wait until tomorrow when being told that there is potential smoke, water leakage and lack of hot water in the building for many residents. Imagine being told these things from a resident and then communicate that they need to wait until tomorrow?! What is even the point of an out of hours line then?! Before that they were not able to fix a door and thank good that nobody needed an ambulance ik case of emergency because that would really make the newspapers. I am not even sure where you would find such an useless bunch of people in this day and age. Being paid to do a job that they can not even do properly and one can not bother visit the estate via a short tube ride?

I have recently rented my third apartment using Savills, and was advised by Anthony Casingena on each occasion. Anthony delivered an outstanding service. He is very friendly, honest, attentive and responsive. He made the whole process a breeze each time, and went above and beyond to ensure that I had the best experience possible. I would most definitely recommend Savills and Anthony if you are looking for an apartment rental in this area - they provide an incredible level of service. Thanks again, Anthony - and I will definitely be in touch again the next time I am looking for a property!

AWFUL ESTATE AGENCY, POOR SERVICE, BAD FOR TENANTS AND LANDLORDS.

Have rented from a number of different landlords, agency's, and reps over the years. This was by far the worst experience I have had. Savills were awful from start to finish, from the effort they actually put in to sell the property on the landlords behalf, to how to they dealt with requests or reports of issues throughout the tenancy or lastly how they have dealt with the ending of the tenancy. All of the staff members are rude and treat you with little respect. There have been lies and manipulation from them to ensure they can get the most out of every transaction. They have also been incredibly slow to return the deposit, 7 weeks and still no sign, when we have enquired about this we have been treated as if we are rude to ask where our money is. AWFUL ESTATE AGENCY, POOR SERVICE, BAD FOR TENANTS AND LANDLORDS.

Helpful and professional

My experience with Savills was very positive and everything went well. I was in contact with Jess Exley, who was very helpful, supportive and answered all my questions. My case was a bit difficult, as I was about to move to the UK from abroad and was not familiar with the processes. She explained everything in detail and was responding to me quickly and in a professional manner. I felt that I can trust her and this made the moving out process smoother for me. I definitely recommend her!

We had an unfortunate situation with a person who was renting our flat. All looked bleak and costly to us. However dealing with Philip Theodorou from Savills helped greatly to manage the situation and reduce our costs and have a better conclusion with this challenging situation.

We were lucky to find a great property marketed by Savills. I would like to thank Ms. Yato Konde in particular for making our move in a speedy process. She has been so helpful and she promptly provided all the support that we needed to settle in.

Ellis

I have been an extremely lucky person to have had Ellis at the knutsford office helping me through a very stressful time with our purchase of 7 Millbank Close she has always and still is pleasant and very informative every time I have spoken to her.. moving house is very stressful and it certainly has for us as we have lived in our present house 50 years but Ellis always put my mind at rest as our sale had lots of delays. So thank you Ellis your a star. Ann vickers
