Appalling Rental Service By Savills St Tropez

Savills agreed a two month rental of my property in France. Contrary to the contract, the tenant smoked in four of the rooms - master bedroom, master bathroom, sitting room and dining room. The check out clerk noted a "strong smell of tobacco" to all these rooms which remains to date in the master bedroom. The Savills rental agent, against my firm instructions in writing, had the damaged curtains washed and they shrunk by 10cm in length. Savills, despite being aware there is an ongoing dispute, returned the deposit to the bad tenant without deducting money for the replacement curtains (I gave them a quotation for this) and are insisting that I make a claim through my own insurance company - which will result in them raising my premium for something that was not of my making. I have been treated appallingly by Savills and they have ducked and dived to get out of taking responsibility for their bad client. I would not recommend them at all. Be warned - if you have a problem with a bad client supplied by Savills you will be left high and dry and they will do all they can to protect the bad tenant.

Smooth experience

Very happy with the service I received (rental of new flat) - particularly with Aziz from the St John’s Wood branch who helped us in the process! He was available literally around the clock, and always eager to answer our questions. Also worth mentioning that when encountered a couple issues/disputes in the process, with the help of Aziz we managed to resolve them very smoothly.

Probably the most helpful estate agent you’ll ever meet

Melissa Gallagher from Savills, has been the most helpful and proactive estate agent that I have ever met, and I have met large numbers!From the get go she has been quick to respond to queries and provides super helpful answers. However, she has gone the extra mile to contact third party surveyors and contractors and pull together their reports on our behalf.She has also been great at communicating up and down the chain, chasing other agents and solicitors alike, to get milestone dates such as exchange and completion agreed and over the line.On top of this she has been easily contactable and good fun.

Commercial Property Management team do not seem to want to resolve issue

Savills manage the land behind my house and I emailed them in June about a tree on that property that was leaning dangerously and if it fell would damage both mine and my neighbours house. They said a tree survey was being done in August but heard nothing back from them. Chased in both September and October and was told they are waiting for quotes but no timelines or updates given. The tree needs to be removed asap and I can’t believe it would take over 3 months to get quotes etc. I am now having to email a third Regional Facilities Manager to deal with my concerns as they keep changing and no one seems to want to help resolve the issue.

Staggeringly high staff turnover. But Angus is great.

In a company of staggering staff turnover, it is great to see Angus Wong show initiative and take control of issues. I hope he sticks around here . . . .

Great company to rent from

We’ve been renting from Savills’s for over a year now and been having a great experience since. Very efficient and friendly service from Adel, our property manager. Inspections are done in a friendly and professional way. I haven’t had to report many things but when I have, there has been a workman round within a couple of days. Any issues have been dealt with quickly. I would recommend them to anyone.Thank you!

Savills have been amazing to work with on finding my partner and I a property. We’ve worked closely with Paige who has been so, so helpful. Communication was great from the start - from enquiring, to viewing and then securing the property - everything was super quick. Paige has supported us throughout the whole process and made this move so seamless! I recommend Savills to anyone that is thinking about moving!

We searched for a property for a good few months and so had the pleasure of working specifically with Anthony on a number of occasions. Contrary to expectations, he showed a genuine interest in trying to help us find what we were looking for and went above and beyond to ensure we were supported during and comfortable with the process. Would highly recommend working with Anthony, whether you are looking to rent your home or find a home to rent (or both!).

Absolutely awful

Absolutely awful, do not rent with them!!! Their whole process is extremely outdated, slow and very unreasonable. The people who work there (or at least the ones I have encountered) are not doing their job at all, they don't even reply to emails and when you go into an office they say you should email...You are pretty much left on your own and doing everything by yourself, would never ever rent anything through them anymore!

Savills rented me an apartment that is…

Savills rented me an apartment that is completely unliveable. It has mold everywhere and smells horrible. Savills never inspected the unit to ensure it was fit for habitability. Every room has multiple issues that were never disclosed. These issues make 50 percent of the flat unusable. Of 2.5 bathrooms, 1.5 are not fit for use. The toilets don't flush paper or other things. The mold has caused severe respiratory issues and migraines. I've had to go to A&E with severe asthma attacks. A professional cleaner came in for 5 minutes and started coughing and sneezing and said this was one of the worst places she's ever seen. The appliances don't work. Instead of letting me out of the lease, they insist we should pay their fees. They never even provided an inventory or ensured the flat was cleaned. They did nothing on this property. They don't care about tenants. They care about money. I moved here for a job and I've told my employer to advise against using Savills ever. Please use a different letting agent.

Savills Ireland shameful

Savills Ireland. Utterly disgraceful. Agents never reply email or pick up phone. Reception won't accept you in without appointment and won't give you any appointment. After weeks trying to contact them, and finally a positive agreement, we wasted time in collecting the documents required to only be rejected at the end for no reason. Outrageous.

Poor property management

Poor property management. I have issues with a new flat and it's been two months and no response. The issues keep increasing despite being a new built and their property management team are non-responsive and inefficient.It has been 7 days since my bathroom is unusable. No one is yet to contact me for repairs and emails to the property manager seems useless.
