GoogleWe had to sort out an 8 month rental between Christmas and the New Year for a 16th January move and Elliot helped us find the perfect property within 24 hours. He was responsive to calls and emails over the weekend, he was there for the viewing and on hand to help with the contract process along with any question we had right up to the key handover. We would go back to James Edwards Properties without hesitation.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism, Value

GoogleI think it's rare to find an estate agent who you truly trust to act in your best interest and continues to offer fantastic, responsive service even after you move in as a tenant. Elliot and Ana have done just that. Even with a few minor issues with the property after moving in, they've been responsive and professional to have these resolved as quick as possible. A fantastic managing agent from a tenants perspective and they're also great people. Highly recommended!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleElliott and Ana were great, the whole process was smooth and a lot of care was taken to build trust with us. A bit of repeated paperwork, but that’s pretty normal. All in all, thumbs up!

GoogleA huge thank you to James and his team for their constant support and guidance through the buying process. James was extremely helpful, super responsive and helped us from start to finish.

With this expertise we successfully and smoothly completed the transaction with absolutely no issues (huge contrast to our previous experiences!)

GoogleWe had a great experience with James Edward’s. They had excellent knowledge of the local area, were very communicative and transparent, and helped us arrange our house purchase in the quickest timeframe possible. We love our house and Highbury, and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell.

GoogleI rented an office space in N19 via Elliot Davis at James Edwards and found him refreshingly straightforward to deal with. A human being at last! The landlords he passed me onto (and clearly had a good relationship with) have also been extremely nice. This doesn’t always happen in London so it’s a big thumbs up from me.

GoogleAbsolutely exceptional.
TL;DR This letting agency understands they are dealing with people and their homes, not just properties. Forget every stereotype of an estate agent you've ever heard and use this company.
Detail: From viewing a property with James in Feb, through the administrative processes with Ana, then the coronavirus-related (and unavoidable) delays and issues with moving that James personally went out of his way to solve; to temporarily living in a managed property that was being re-let by Elliot, who made sure we weren't inconvenienced by viewings and who was even really nice to my mum when she was bending his ear... It could have been a nightmare few months for us given the situation and instead I feel like I want to invite everyone at James Edwards round for dinner.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Special mention to be made of James Hall who has been our link with the wonderful team at James Edward Lettings and guided us wonderfully through the tenancy.Kudos to the team and keep up the good work.I will definitely recommend this letting agency to new tenants.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleI've rented a flat through James Edward Lettings and I have to say I was extremely amazed by their services. Viewing took place with Elliot who was very aware of the flat, the location and happy to answer to all my queries. Once I placed the offer, then I was directed to his colleague Ana who dealt with the entire referencing process and made everything seem so easy and hassle free/stress free! I would highly recommend James Edward Lettings to any future tenants wishing to get the best out of an estate agency in London! Thank you!

GoogleJames Edward Lettings provide very good value and have a friendly, yet professional approach. I got to know James in 2013 when he worked for a larger firm and I was letting out my flat in Highbury for the first time. When he set up his own firm about three years ago, there was absolutely no doubt in my mind that I would sign up as one of his first customers and I have had excellent service ever since. I know that I can trust him and his colleagues always to do the right thing. This minimises the effort on my part and means I have a stress-free letting experience.

GoogleWe were looking for a special property to rent due to a professional move and James showed us around a property that ticked most of our boxes. James was very friendly and personable from Day 1, very knowledgeable about the property we were interested in and obviously knew instinctively whether the landlord-tenant relationship would work well. Throughout the process we have never been disappointed: James demonstrated the highest level of professionalism, responding quickly to our queries, and to our delight his firm is using very slick online systems and electronic signature facilities which have made the whole administrative process of renting seamless... all this without ever losing the personal touch through direct personalised email communication and feedback! We would highly recommend James Edward Lettings, best experience we've ever had so far with a letting agent!!!

GoogleI have been using James Edwards Lettings for to let out my house. I selected them over other estate agents as they actually appeared to care about managing my property and understood the need to get the right kind of tenant for a special house. My initial impressions turned out to be right - they have provided excellent support before and after the house was let, helping me get the last few jobs sorted out, managing the contract negotiation process and managing the small number of issues which have arisen since the tenants have been in. Compared to the letting agency that I am renting through they are a breath of fresh air! Highly recommended,

FacebookJames is honestly the best letting agent I've dealt with in London. He is a genuinely nice person who is willing to go that extra mile for you to ensure a smooth move in process. If there was an issue, James found a solution. He's very good at his job and also cares about the well-being of the tenants and property owner/s. It was a pleasure meeting him and if we ever move I will sure to look up James Edward Lettings first.

FacebookJames has managed a property of mine in Highbury for a number of years, firstly with another lettings agency and then through James Edward Lettings. I was always pleased with the level of support, efficiency and honest approach which James provided. Since the property has been managed by James Edward Lettings I have enjoyed even better support, if that's possible, as well as highly competitive pricing. I will certainly be asking James to handle another property of mine as soon as new tenants are required. I would like to add that James really does have a pleasant and reasonable approach and I would be as happy finding a property to rent via James Edward Lettings as I am working with him as a landlord. Best wishes for the future and keep up the great work!

GooglePurchased a property via Elliot @ James Edward. Very happy to have dealt with him. He is a great balance of honesty, no nonsense and willing to hear out my concerns/challenges. This purchase took longer than we would have liked and he was great chasing down people to move things along. He also has great tradesman recommendations!
