TrustpilotRude and Unprofessional
The estate agent I dealt with was so rude and repeatedly asked if I could afford the flat before even viewing the flat. He assumed I had no knowledge of the current renting market and was very condescending when I told him my price range. When I turned up to my viewing, he dismissed me and didn't introduce the flat at all. I 100% do NOT recommend this place to anyone.

I have been using chestertons for a while and they really have shown so much care and attention in helping to find the right property for me. They are a great team and unlike other estate agents talk to each other in different offices! They are helpful and really lovely to deal with!

TrustpilotAvoid using this company by all means
Avoid using this company by all means -We lived in a property managed by Chesterton's for a year. In the time we lived with them, we reported issues with the accommodation in the first week of moving into the accommodation, they didn't sort this in the 9 months of us living there. They constantly sent someone out to 'price it up', but never once did someone come to fix anything. Things like not providing keys for the windows to open, bath panels and shower's hanging off the wall. We had 4 different property managers in this time as people kept leaving the company. The guy who came round to look at the property to price up the issues mentioned that the accommodation was that poorly put together that he couldn't believe it. After 9 months of getting tired of nothing being fixed, we decided we had to get out.Once we left, we were assured that we would not receive any cleaning charges if we used their registered cleaners. When handing over the keys, Andrew mentioned that the flat was cleaner than it was before we moved in. After using their cleaners, they still tried to take £160 for a cleaning charge. The individual who has been working on getting our deposit back has been everything but competent, we had to wait 2 months for our deposit to come back. It's gotten that bad that even the property owner has mentioned to us that she will never use Chesterton's again. I would love to leave a 0 star but for some reason that isn't possible.Considering we had nothing fixed in the time that we lived in the accommodation, we thought we'd be able to leave the flat. Instead we had to pay over £600 to leave early.I would avoid using this company at all costs, not only will you have nothing fixed, but they will also try to scam you out of most of your deposit.

TrustpilotRude and unresponsive! Awful experiences
We are renting our flat through Chestertons and the whole experience since we moved in has been shocking. We are constantly ignored when we report issues and have to chase all the time. We have 2 ongoing issues one that was reported 3/4 months ago. We were told that someone called Fiona left and have been dealing with someone new who is even worse. No communication happens internally so when people are on holiday you have to start the process all over again. Would never ever go through Chestertons again

Hi there, we’re really sorry to see you have left this review on multiple platforms. As mentioned and after speaking with the team, we’re aware that the landlord instructed you directly to carry out works on their property, not through Chestertons.We have passed your concerns on to the landlord to try and assist, however, you will need to follow up with them directly in order to resolve the matter. We hope you reach a resolution soon and if there’s anything else we can help with, please do let us know.

TrustpilotAvoid, Not recommended.
I'm an landlord and I have recently signed a new contract with Chestertons for a new tenant. The starting date is set for 25th June, however, Chestertons only informed me when I asked them on 26th June, that the contract didn't commence because they need me to sign some other documents. Therefore, they had to push the start date to 29th June. I had to chase Chestertons all the time. They only arranged me the documents for me to sign on 29th June at 6pm! Both me and the tenants were stressed out on the day. But finally we got all the documents signed. Chestertons pushed the start date by 4 days which is a financial loss for me. And I only found out the contract didn't start because I chased them for landlord statement. I wouldn't recommend Chestertons as your property manager.

We have used Chestertons for the sale of my flat last year and it took a while but yielded result this year. I dealt mostly with Stuart who followed the progress of the sale and always promptly updated me. He is not only very professional but his duty of care extended to after my husband and I moved into our new property. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chestertons.

GoogleAfter moving in during the end of September, there were initially a whole host of issues with our flat rented through and managed by Chesterton's.
As well as being generally run down and tired from the previous tenancy, such as limescale ridden shower heads, greasy oven hood (despite claims a ‘full professional clean’ has taken place), extremely worn carpets and excessively scuffed up walls.
We initially raised the issues on 2/10 and were told on 5/10 that they would send someone round to investigate. A contractor then came 2 weeks after that - around 20/10.
Since then, it has been more or less radio silence from the property management team.
I just yesterday decided to move my wardrobe in my room from one side of the room to the other. Boy am I glad I did this as what I found is pictured below.
I discovered what looks to be a botched disguising job - whereby a wardrobe was placed over existing mould, paint then applied to the exposed section above the wardrobe which was visible, and the rest left behind the wardrobe.
In addition to this, the wardrobe itself started disintegrating, due in part I imagine to the damp but also the cheap nature of the furniture.
I had been unknowingly living, sleeping, storing clothes, and breathing in a room with rancid fungal spores.
Unfortunately, their property management service is either insufficient or lacks any real care, attention, or drive. The Landlord pays to have Chesterton's "manage" their asset and if I were them, I'd be extremely angry and upset that they have mismanaged it so poorly. Either that or the landlord was fully aware and advised them to neglect it - who knows.
All that is certain, however, is that a little bit of care and or attention from a Chesterton's property manager wouldn't have gone amiss...
Would actively avoid renting through Chesterton's, especially if the property is managed by them.

They totally had their eyes on the landlord's wallet and not us or our friends when it came to renewing. Why? Greed, plain and simple.Even though we said yes to their renewal offer twice, they still tossed the property onto the open market. They tried to blame the landlord, but we know that's just a classic Chestertons move.Honestly, the worst agency we've ever had to deal with.
