GoogleBe very careful when dealing with this estate agent. I am a first time buyer and was looking to buy a new build flat. They showed me a new build property that was not finished. It was on ground floor. I was told that the outside garden is private and will have high fences. I paid a £500 holding deposit. Not only the property was not completed by the time I was told, the garden was half finished with very low fences that made the garden completely exposed to the public. The agency didn't even give me the terms and conditions for the deposit I paid (that they are required by law to give to you when you pay a deposit for any new build properties) and when I questioned the fences not being as described they told me that we never said anything about the fences. They would lie to you and teld all you want to hear just to sell to you.
After finding out that the garden wuld be completely exposed my wife didn't feel safe to live there and we were no longer interested in buying that flat. Even though they knew they were not truthful about the fences and that i had the rights to withdraw my offer, they never paid back my £500 deposit back.
If you want to buy a property, or rent stay away from Oakhill estate agents, that's if you want to deal with honest people, because you won't find them in here.
After posting this I get threatened by one of the partners, here is their response:
Dear Mr Far
It is a shame you have decided to publish such a negative review. For clarity, Oakhill do not benefit from your deposit. The developer has taken your reservation deposit because you withdrew from the purchase some considerable time after reserving the property. We have suggested that you pursue your deposit via the developers solicitor which you have chosen not to do. The Oakhill team have not misled you and the property was always to be built with iron railings rather than fence panels, as shown in advertising photos.
This is a clear case of defamation, and we will be taking legal action to seek compensatory damages based on this defamation should this review not be removed within seven days of the date of this email. I must advise you that any costs incurred in instructing our solicitors after the seven days, and any legal costs will be held against you for settlement.
Kind regards,

GoogleI have been renting in London for many years and have never had any problems with any estate agents until Oakhill.
Avoid at all costs if you do not want to get charged ridiculous deductions when you leave. You will also get ignored when you question the deductions.
Another point of note, when they tell you there will be no renewal fee if you stay on for a second year, make sure you have it in writing. Lucky we did, as a year down the line they tried charging us hundreds of pounds for this but eventually stopped when i found the old email.

Hi Lewis,
We appreciate tenants frustration when they are not returned their deposits in full, however when damage is caused, and the property is not returned as provided at start of tenancy, all landlords have the right to issue a fair claim with the relevant deposit protection scheme, of which is all adjudicated professionally by an independent third part, eg. The Deposit Protection Service.
If you did want to discuss this matter further, feel free to contact justin@oakhillagents.co.uk. Best of luck with your onward move.

GoogleStaff seemed friendly and helpful on the phone, however when I booked a viewing they did not send me any kind of confirmation of the time, house number for the property, or a mobile number for the agent which I was meeting. I then turned up at the street where I thought the house was 15 mins early, phoned the main office to ask where the agent was, and all the lady could say was that she would call me back when she knew more information. I never heard back.. and I think I even saw the agent leaving the area before I could stop and talk to him. So I think I'll be going somewhere else for my property search.
Stephanie · 29 August 2019

Hi there, thank you for your feedback and im sorry to hear you have had this experience. I would be keen to find out more information so we can look into it further. Can you advise us of your name, who you spoke to, or who the viewing was booked with, when the viewing was due to take place and if it was a property to rent or to buy ? Any of the above information is useful to help us identify what has happened.
Many thanks

GoogleJusdeep has been exceptionally professional and helpful during my dealings with him for one of the properties they had up for rent. He has always been one phone call away and has worked at the best interest for the landlord and tenant equally. Been a great experience and hope this is a start of a smooth experience with Jus and Oakhill.

GoogleThe service provided in managing the rental of my father's property has been smooth and handled well except in one respect - despite being advised that he is old with sight issues and has no technical skills, they insist on sending electronic documents for him to read and sign. They have to recognise that some times 'hard copy' is required and provide this.

GoogleOakhills Estate Agents have managed my property for many years in a highly professional and responsive manner, particularly when securing tenants.
My current property manager, Kalina, has impressed by her attentiveness when I need to contact her and her organisational skills, as most recently shown when sorting out repairs to the property that were the subject of an insurance claim.

GoogleSo far, this has been as perfect an experience as it's possible to have when letting your flat. Everyone I have spoken to at Oakhill Estate Agents have been really polite, helpful and gone out of their way to do that bit extra. I'm now using them to manage my flat which they found tenants for extremely quickly.

GoogleI am absolutley appauled by the criminal behaviour of this agency when trying to exit my lease. They tried to change me £700 over my £1800 deposit for wanting to leave the premises early - fair and valid reasons given as well as spurious claims for damages to the property. DPS rejected most of their claims, and stated that their lease as drafted and early termination fees charged were not in the spirit of the Tenancy Fees Act 2019. Tenants beware, they will try steal your deposit and give you no supporting evidence as to why. Challenge everything, these charlatons need to be held accountable for their dispicable actions on vulnerbale tenants.
