Very positive experience

Very positive experience - John and Guy were both very helpful throughout the process. They were regularly checking in with me and the seller if things are on track and were answering my questions. I was part of the chain, the sale process involved multiple parties and they brought it to a successful end despite few challenges on the way. I highly recommend.

Sara is by far the loveliest member of staff we dealt with when signing for a rental property. She responded immediately, she did the most she could on viewings to answer any questions, always had a friendly smile! Thanks, Sara!

I recently purchased a property through the Hackney Winkworth office. Tobi was acting as managing agent for the transaction and he worked extremely hard to make sure it went through smoothly. The whole team at the office were excellent and Tobi was especially good at navigating the issues that came up during the purchase between myself and the vendor of the property. I had to change my mortgage at the last minute and delay the fixed completion date - this wasn't an easy situation as even my solicitor was not happy. But Tobi was able to reassure the vendor and make sure that the transaction didn't break down into litigation letters being sent out by the vendor's solicitor. Overall, I found the team at the Hackney office experienced and more than competent. An important part of the job of an estate agent is to act as point of contact between purchaser and vendor to relay messages that might be problematic if dealt with by solicitors. They also make sure both parties are informed about progress at all times. Both of these responsibilities require good understanding of information and the ability to deliver it to the purchaser or vendor in a way that does not increase stress to either party when transaction progress is stalling. Thank you Tobi and the team for getting things over the line, I know it wasn't an easy one!

We recently sold our flat through Winkworth. Tom and Tobi were brilliant; knowledgeable, professional and trustworthy. They were really helpful through what was a bit of a difficult sale and we couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Winkworth Hackney were fantastic in helping myself, partner and friend a lovely 2 bed property in the local area. Rory in particular really understood exactly what we were looking for and went out of his way to make sure we were happy with the flat we ended up renting. Could not recommend their friendly and communicative branch enough when looking for a new property!

Made me pay for postage

They sent me a letter in the mail asking to sell my property but didn’t pay the full postage. I had to pay £2 so this unknown letter could be delivered just to find out they’re trying to sell to me. When I do sell my property I won’t be going here if they aren’t competent enough to add correct postage to a letter

I found Ade to be very professional and helpful when we were looking for places to view. However I was shocked when I viewed a property that the photos on the winkworth website were totally misleading. This is really not fair that photos are advertised from when the property is purchased and not in the current state. Id never seen a property in such an awful state and couldnt believe that winkworth would show people a property in this state. There was so much mould the smell made me feel physically sick! I wish id taken some photos but I just wanted out of there as fast as possible. 😞

I recently had the pleasure of working with Winkworth Hackney Estate Agents, and I can't express enough how wonderful the experience was. From the moment I walked into their office, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism that set the tone for the entire journey of buying my new home. Ade was wonderful and was surprised to see such quality of professionalism. Winkworth Hackney went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and informed throughout the entire process. Their friendly demeanor immediately put me at ease, and it was evident that they genuinely cared about finding the perfect property for me and my family. What impressed me most was Ade and Candecia’s extensive knowledge of the local real estate market. They provided valuable insights and answered all of my questions with patience and clarity. Candecia was not just a salesperson; they were a trusted advisor who had my best interests at heart. Communication was seamless throughout the buying process. Candecia was always prompt in returning calls and emails, and they kept me updated on every development. This level of transparency made me feel confident in every decision I made. Additionally, Ade & Candecia both were great negotiators. They skilfully navigated the negotiations with the landlord to ensure that I get the property I had set my heart on. I never felt pressured, and they always respected my budget and preferences. Closing the deal was a breeze, thanks to Candecia's attention to detail and organization. They made sure all the paperwork was in order, and I didn't encounter any surprises or hiccups along the way. In the end, I found the perfect flat, and I owe a huge thanks to Ade and Candecia for making it happen. Their friendliness, professionalism, and dedication to their clients are truly commendable. If you're in the market for a new home and want an estate agent who will go the extra mile with a smile, I wholeheartedly recommend Winkworth Hackney and, Ade and Candecia - They've made my home-renting experience not only successful but also enjoyable. Thank you for your outstanding service!

Lauren Douglas (Winkworth Shorditch)…

Lauren Douglas (Winkworth Shorditch) has helped me find tenants twice. On both occasions, she's found me multiple high-quality tenants very quickly. On both occasions, I've been delighted with the support she's provided. Her local knowledge and understanding of the ever-changing regulations governing the market are unequalled. I'll certainly be using Lauren Douglas again.

Deborah did a great job with the photography for our property. She was professional, efficient and very easy to work with on the day, which made the whole process straightforward. The photos came out really well and captured the house beautifully, helping it present strongly when it went live online. We really appreciated the care taken and would happily recommend Winkworth’s photography service.

This was my first time selling a property, and we were doing so at a particularly stressful time (newborn baby and family bereavement) but Sean and the team were fantastic at helping us through the process. We really appreciated how available he was for our questions, knowledge about the market as well as transparency. Thanks again Winkworths team!

Excellent Agents

I have worked with many estate agents on buying and selling properties. I also used to work in the commercial property sector. In selling this property I have been very impressed by the advice and service given by Winkworths but notably by Lewis. We have been informed and regularly updated (without chasing or prompting). Lewis has been proactive throughout to ensure that our sale was made quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Lewis and Winkworth.

Nicole's ability to establish a personal connection and genuinely understand clients' needs is truly remarkable. She is a genuine asset to your agency, exemplifying the qualities of a top-tier agent.

Winkworth, and in particular Tobi, were excellent from the start. He took on board our thoughts and expectations, and was able to position our property in a way that worked immediately, briefing quality, vetted, potential buyers ahead of viewings on what to expect, while giving space for them to explore. This approach resulted in us achieving an offer above asking price. Tobi was also very good throughout the entire conveyancing process, and would happily recommend him and Winkworth Hackney.

Aaron was an amazing help

Aaron was an amazing help. As soon as I spoke with him regarding re renting my flat he put me on the right 'track' in regards to everything I needed to do or not to do. The previous tenants left the flat in a real mess and Aaron recommended certain businesses that dealt with many of my concerns ie getting rid of rubbish, where to get an EPC from etc. As soon as the flat was ready to go on the market Aaron was able to muster up fifteen applicants whilst weedling out a few that weren't quite right for my flat. He got me an immediate offer which was a little more than expected which was great. Overall I had a great experience with Winkworth, would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone that would like to rent out their property.

A Lettings agent who gives good advice & listens

Ben at Winkworths Clapham gave me good advice from his valuation visit through to finding me a tenant within 2 weeks of going on the market. I achieved close to the rental value advertised in a competitive market & the process was stress free because he listened to my requirements.

Sean Ward and the team at Winkworth Hackney have been excellent to work with. They are communicative, proactive, and have been very helpful in preparing us for each phase of the sale process. We would definitely recommend working with Sean, Tobi and Nasir and would gladly work with Winkworth again in the future.

Poor experience

This review has taken me a while to write because the experience we had with both Winkworths and the landlords was incredibly disappointing. As tenants, we genuinely felt we were treated very poorly.

I cannot recommend Aaron and his team highly enough - they are first rate, professional, knowledgeable and dependable. Any issues were ironed out quickly and Aaron went above and beyond to find a solution that left tenants, landlord and buyer happy. Aaron is extremely responsive, practical and a delight to deal with. I have dealt with other local agents over the years and Aaron is head and shoulders above the rest. He knows the market inside out and I wouldn't hesitate in renting my property with his team again.
