Good luck getting anything back from deposit.

Agency staff themselves polite. Company policy to use unpleasant tactics to take money. Any unreasonable excuse to keep deposit. They demand a cleaning company be used at end of tenancy -tenant has to pay. My flat was well looked after and left in good condition. They took another £100 off deposit, claiming leaves needed sweeping out of the back garden. The trees had needed trimming in the garden, property inspector advised they do this, it was never done. When I moved in, the place was not clean. Living room blind filthy, covered in squashed insects, bathroom light-pull was black with dirt, landlords refused to replace/clean either. Never had this experience with any other agency, always had deposit repaid before.

Exemplary Estate Management: 14 Years of Personalized Care and Outstanding Service

My uncle has been entrusting Carter Jonas in Kensington and Chelsea with the management of his property, for over 14 years now, and I couldn't be more impressed with their exceptional service. My uncle lived abroad and have always felt he was in good hands, and that Carter Jonas have consistently exceeded his expectations year after year.Lara and Lajla have been instrumental in ensuring the smooth management of the property, providing unparalleled support and guidance throughout his journey with them. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and dedication have truly set them apart.In particular, I would like to commend Lajla for her outstanding support, especially during a challenging time following the passing of my uncle. She not only demonstrated a deep understanding of our situation but also showed genuine care and empathy towards our needs.Recently, we encountered an unexpected issue with the reimbursement of the rent deposit to the tenant, which was caused by the DPS. Lajla took it upon herself to personally handle the matter, going above and beyond to resolve it swiftly and effectively. Her proactive approach and commitment to resolving issues promptly are truly commendable.Carter Jonas in Kensington and Chelsea, through the exceptional efforts of Lara and Lajla, as well as their whole team, has consistently delivered outstanding service, making them an invaluable partner in managing my uncle’s property. I wholeheartedly recommend Carter Jonas to anyone seeking reliable and professional estate management services in Kensington and Chelsea. Thank you for 14 years of excellence, and here's to many more years of continued partnership!

After taking advice from several friends we selected Rupert Reeves to value and sell our house and were very pleased with the whole experience. The valuation and final sale price exceeded our expectation, the process was relatively smooth and largely stress free and Rupert was a pleasure to work with - would not hesitate to recommend Carter Jonas

Exceptional service and unwavering support from Carter Jonas!

Exceptional service and unwavering support from Carter Jonas!Recently, we encountered a significant floor issue in our rented apartment, but thanks to Carter Jonas, the entire process from identification to resolution was handled with utmost professionalism and efficiency. They went above and beyond in addressing the leakage problem, which necessitated a complete flooring replacement. Additionally, the outdated and damaged bathroom was completely renovated.Their work was truly outstanding, delivering not only a functional solution but also a stunning new design. Despite the scale of the project, they completed it within the promised timeframe.We wholeheartedly recommend Carter Jonas for their exemplary service and invaluable assistance. Thank you for your exceptional support throughout this endeavor.

Absolute pleasure dealing with Matt Brookes and the Carter Jonas team in general. Whenever there’s a problem he’s been on the case with bags of initiative and very knowledgeable. He somehow makes things seem effortless and is always very calm and measured. The property we’re moving to is very special indeed and I know it’s been complex with the efforts needed to have it compliant and ready for us, for which I’m super grateful.

I have recently rented a property management by this company and i honestly have nothing positive to say, they are simply unprofessional and can’t do simple maths which led to us owing more in deposit than was firstly stated due to a mistake in the initial payment stated, then when picking up the keys to our property they were in an envelope in the office they did not ask for IDs to check we were the home owners, then coming to when we didn’t not want to renew our tenancy they would give us a days notice about viewings being conducted a week before we were due to move out ! they cause me and my house mate nothing but stress and i would avoid at all costs if you can!

Greedy profiteering

This companies accounting is ridiculous, I am paying ground rent (for a property 30 years old ... pure profit) and 'service charges' (there is NO service provided) that has increased over 20% every year for 3 years to profit them and yet they cannot understand a monthly DD paying them all this money and insist on sending out massive bills. What an absolute joke.

Jess Hall and Hannah Burton of Carter Jonas Harrogate are a wholly exceptional team. They are very hard working, extremely efficient, and exhibit an uncommonly high level of professional standards. Jess earned significant trust from the first phone call and retained and increased that trust throughout our dealing with her. She and Hannah are a pleasure to deal with and in 35 years of dealing with estate agents, they rank at the top. Their success is a considerable accomplishment and a tribute to the outstanding level of professionalism they bring to their work.

Terrible

Terrible, Terrible , Terrible . Communication and an unenthusiastic unproffessional attitude scores a zero .When you phone you can never get hold of anyone, if your lucky enough to catch them after many and I mean many attempts they cut you short as they are off to another meeting. State they will phone back next day, but never ever do. Phone back the next day .When they eventually do, if they do they take a week or more to respond to emails or calls with no apology for delay in repling ..And so the cycle gos on. We were interested in a property however due to the unproffessional service , it has now completely put us off the property .Sad to say and we feel sorry for the vendors but we are out and are moving on looking else where. Carter Jonas seriously, with a big S , need to review their agents customer service skillls .Based on our experience we would never ever use this company to sell our property . UPDATE it is now the 5th of October, we contacted CJ once again explaining our concerns with their agent poor communiacation skills and that we would like to discuss the property offer with another agent in their office and trust that we would not have to wait weeks for them to get back to us .Guess what, its approx 3 weeks now, and again nothing, ..no reply at all.

We've had the pleasure of dealing with the Carter Jonas team twice in a year. They helped us secure a barn conversion project and recently sorted our dream rental while the barn is completed. Super helpful and professional with a real world understanding of your situation and much appreciated common sense approach. In an industry where timeframes are everything they are “on it”. In a world of plunging standards it is a pleasure to recommend Carter Jonas without caveat.

Don't rent property from these people Poor Service and Poor Communication

Myself and my partner moved into a property 1st July 2021 we signed a 3 year tenancy agreement throw circumstances we moved out on 31st July 2023 we were told that we would loose £564.00 of our £1036.00 deposit when we moved out we were a bit annoyed about it but were told this was because of the cost to them or the Landlords for readvertising the property we then found out that their was new tenants moving in on the 2nd August which made us slightly annoyed before we moved out we got professional cleaners into clean the house the day before we moved out the house was spotless.We moved out on Monday 31st September 2023 we waited and waited for the rest of the money to be paid into our bank account which never happened the house was suppose to be inspected by an independent person on the same day we moved out but this never happened the house was inspected on the first 01/08/23 then the new tenants moved in on the 2nd July 2023 we eventually got a copy of the report which shocked us apparently the house was dirty and uncleaned which was a load of rubbish.We eventually got an email from Rebecca at Carter Jonas saying that they were going to give us back £60 out of a £1036.00 deposit which I rejected they were taking a further £372.00 for cleaning the house and £100.00 for tidying up the garden we asked for copies of the receipts we eventually got a receipt for the cleaning of the house which is just a bog standard receipt which has no date when the cleaning was done or the actual address of the property we are still waiting for the receipt for the work done in the garden so we are still fighting this.

We recently purchased our house through Carter Jonas and the whole process was assisted greatly by their staff, particularly Andrew Maddock. We experienced, what we now understand to be, the usual lack of communication from solicitors and it was the professional efforts of Carter Jonas that kept our purchase on track.

We chose Kate at Carter Jonas to be our letting agent because she had all the qualities we were looking for. She is very approachable, and friendly. She clearly knows the letting service inside out, and is very frank and thorough when she gives you feedback on your property. Our property had lost its heart and soul, and after viewing a video that Kate had taken we realised we had chosen the best person for letting out our property. After a lot of TLC, which was required and facilitated through Kate's knowledge of local tradesman, we have finally a finished house that has its heart and soul back. We would definitely recommend Kate from Carter Jonas, a real diamond in the rough.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
