TrustpilotRented a flat with them
Rented a flat with them. It took Benham and Reeves more than 2 months to reimburse my deposit after many emails. The accounting department made a lot of mistakes and information communicated to me was erroneous (miscommunication as they would call it) which eventually cost me half a month rent. Would not trust them for any transaction

TrustpilotKayleigh Top Service
Kayleigh who has been looking after us for the last few years has been a breathe of fresh air. As a tenant, we are always able to rely on her to ensure the apartment is maintained and any issues she is very quick to help us out. This makes life a lot easier and always having someone to attend to our needs when required. Kayleigh certainly goes above and beyond and we are grateful for her looking after us.

GoogleSo disappointed with the service. We rent a flat but the vent is constantly on during midnight, we can’t fall asleep and the agent fooled us from the beginning. They didn’t let us talk with the previous tenant about how they feel. We rent the flat without knowing the noise pollution, and complain about it many times still got no solution. I need to take pills to help me sleep now, also caused me anxiety. Don’t trust anything from the agent, worst service ever.

GoogleI have had 15 years of excellent service from Benham and Reeves Highgate lettings office, thoroughly helped by having the same team throughout.
Having made the mistake of trying another letting letting agent on the principle that competition is beneficial and having had a lot of time wasted
by that agent (costing considerable loss of rent), I am happily looking forward to greeting my new Benham and Reeves introduced tenants next week. Thank you!

TrustpilotAmazing service
I was looking for a flat to rent with very specific requirement. I found a property online, reached-out to B&R and got connected to Abbie White. She understood my requirement very well and shared exact suitable options for me. I choose an option which was coming to market soon as a result there was lack of info available at the time of enquiry. With her great communication skills she made sure that I was always up-to date with latest information. When it came to closing the deal, she kept he promise of notifying me on-time and got things done quickly.

TrustpilotUnprofessional
We had a disappointing experience regarding our deposit return. It took two months of constant emails to B&R to reach a settlement (over nothing special, less than 20% of the deposit was in question). During this time B&R provided no transparency over significant delays (in spite of repeated requests), and there was no explanation for days passing without any answer to our emails.Once we did reach a settlement, we did not get our money back even after 3 weeks, as apparently no paperwork was submitted regarding this. We finally received our deposit (after 3 months from check-out) with the help of the Dispute Service, which simply enacted the already-signed agreement.
Gabriel · 28 November 2021
Agent replied · 21 February 2024
Hi Gabriel, sorry to see your feedback here as I can see from our records that this was resolved without the need for dispute intervention. I can also see that we were not the letting agents for this tenancy therefore we didnt hold your deposit. Nevertheless, I will ensure this is all looked into in case there are further things we can learn from your experience.best regards, Emily Taylor, B&R

TrustpilotNever ever rent with these people
Never ever rent with these people. The landlords they work with are untrustworthy and racist. They adjusted my tenancy agreement to state that spices couldn’t be left out once they saw my name, a condition that wasn’t on the tenancy prior to them seeing my name. They also did not meet my requirements when moving in and took a month to get upto the standard they advertised. Abel and Renata are the worst. They will try to take money off you any way they can and withold your deposit
Nishat · 30 September 2021
Agent replied · 21 February 2024
Hi Nishat, we are very sorry to see your complaint here and would like to reassure you that the ventilation clause in your tenancy agreement applies to most rental properties that are in large apartment buildings. Regarding your deposit, you were given the check-in report when you moved in and you now have the check-out report. Therefore, you are able to see why the landlord is not willing to release your deposit as the damage - which is extensive throughout the property - goes well beyond the scope of fair wear and tear. I believe one of our senior property managers is already assigned to your claim and she will be in touch to finalise the vacation process with you.Kind regards, Emily, B&R

TrustpilotAfter 18 days still waiting for repairs/mattress removal
I moved in on the 22nd of July, when I put down the offer (prior referencing/contract signing) I requested only 1 thing - for the mattress to be removed since I bought a new one myself, the reason for this, the mattress in the property is full of yellow stains, marks and hair, and at least 10 years old. Absolutely unusable/unhygienic.First night in, first shower after cleaning and unpacking for hours, the Shower fitting on the wall came off, and of course hurt me in the head. The bathroom floor completely flooded, the Shower Door Seal it's extremely old and full of limescale so the water comes out profusely.I sent several emails for these issues to be promptly dealt with, first email on the 26th of July, and sadly still waiting.The property manager Syed Hussain replied to my email saying he would contact a Contractor. Two weeks passed by and I never received any contact from Syed Hussain or a Contractor. Today I received a call from a Contractor, who only performs works Mon-Fri until 5pm.. I work in office until 5:30pm, and of course this Contractor doesn't work weekends. After that call that was it.Tomorrow it will be officially 19 calendar days since I moved in, and still with a dirty mattress on the balcony, still taking showers shower head in hand, and having to mop the bathroom floor every single day after showers.The service provided by Benham and Reeves it's appalling.

Hi Mariana, sorry to hear you have not been happy with the management service but our contractors will only attend out of office hours if there is an emergency. This is standard practice which is mentioned in the documentation we provide to all our new tenants.I believe your property manager has been working with you to get things back on track with the shower and unwanted mattress, so these matters should be resolved soon.best regards, Emily Taylor, B&R
