TrustpilotI do not recommend this agency!
1. Our tenancy agreement had a clause that the flat should have had a professional cleaning at the day we checked in, but obviously they did not. We had to sleep one night at the hotel, which money they did not Reduce from the rent. 2. I complained about few things that needed to be renewed in the house a few months no one took actions. 3. I have made complains 5 months about mouses🐁 in the house, they did not took action and in the end never replied to emails.

Trustpilot3 bedroom apartment Review
I was desperately in search of a short let 3 bed apartment with local amenities. I was contacted via email by an agent of Chestertons who was kind enough to help me search for the perfect apartment. It didn't take too long before I had a list of places to look at. I was offered a virtual tour and an in person tour which I had someone do on my behalf as I was abroad at the time. The agent and I were able to also correspond via WhatsApp as well as email which made for a smoother transaction. She was very thorough in her search and paid great attention to my needs. It's my first time going through an agency, as I usually use holiday serviced apartment websites. But so far, my experience with Chestertons has been a good one and I have recommended them to other family members. Madi even went as far as to copy herself in emails between myself and the company in charge of the property to make sure that the handover process was pretty streamline and she was always ready to offer assistance with clarifying any documents I found confusing.

TrustpilotGreat experience working with Chesterton's
I recently relocated to the UK with my family and had a very challenging time finding an apartment that would totally meet our needs. As luck would have it, I came across an apartment listed by Chesterton's. While that particular space wasn't available anymore, the agent Madi immediately found two similar properties to show us, one of which we immediately fell in love with. She guided us through the entire negotiation and rental process, additionally the Chesterton's secure online portal made the process very seamless and transparent. They also provided a thoughtful move in package with some essentials and this added touch was really thoughtful. The team have been so very helpful and proactive and I would definitely be referring others to them.

GoogleThese guys are an absolute joke. Maybe it’s a post covid hangover, but it’s pretty clear this outfit expects to still get paid full rates for absolutely minimal work. Very poor service with a total disregard of customers. I’ve been trying to let with these guys and either there provide no response to emails or if you do connect it’s just an opportunity for Chesterton’s to collect all your data including your mother’s maiden name.
If you are a landlord or a seller, your money is going down the drain.NegativeResponsiveness, Professionalism

TrustpilotGreat experience. I cannot recommend highly enough!
This is my second tenancy through Chestertons in the last few years and in both instances the level of service I’ve received, especially from Olivia but indeed the whole team, has been second to none. Prompt responses to all my queries (even outside of usual hours), great flexibility with viewing times and then an incredible follow up service helping me to secure a wonderful flat in St Katharine Docks.I’m sure the experience of my new landlady and landlord has been just as seamless from their side. I cannot recommend highly enough!

TrustpilotAvoid Chesterton’s…
Avoid Chesterton’s like you would Covid. From the beginning of our tenancy, to the last day, we have endured nothing but frustration, aggravation and excuses. Day one: my wife arrives to take possession of our flatt and found the unit FILTHY. Chesterton’s assured us the flatt had been professionally cleaned and inspected. My wife was fortunate to find a professional cleaning company to perform a same day cleaning. Of course, no compensation was offered and all she heard was excuse after excuse. Last day: after two years of tenancy, it took over TWO MONTHS for our deposit to be returned. Again, (with no fault of our own) incompetent, ill-trained, complacent, and unprofessional behavior caused this unacceptable delay. Interaction, in between our two year tenancy with Chesterton’s, was equally unacceptable. If you find a flatt managed by Chesterton’s, run fast and run far.

TrustpilotTushar Bhatia Rental
MyReview:I was only too pleased to be told I could write a review for a member of staff at Chestertons, as I felt that somehow I needed to express how much I appreciated working with Tushar Bhatia in Rentals.From my first encounter with Tushar, helping me to find new tenants for my rental, I realised he was a breath of fresh air to deal with. Not only attentive and pro-active but also showing me how well he followed through in detail with his email responses, which can often be a bit of a weak link. But not so in his case, as he would always respond before the close of day with an informative and well constructed message. It struck me during my time dealing with him in fact, that he must of experienced professional training or maybe that he just had an inherent aptitude to be able to communicate so thoroughly and be so conscientious. He successful found me my new tenants within a short period of time, which by doing so meant no loss of income.A joy to work with. Would highly recommend him.

TrustpilotRenting process review
Myself and my partner had Heather as our tenant/landlord negotiator for Chestertons. I have nothing but positive things to say about Heather - as first time renters she was responsive and efficient in answering any questions we had about the process. She booked us in for a viewing quickly, was professional, courteous and very friendly when showing me around and even arranged with the current tenant at the time to show as around again as my partner was unavailable the first time. She made the process clear, easy and straightforward which is super appreciated after hearing lots of nightmare experiences with estate agencies and renting. Thanks again Heather for your help and for a great first time experience with Chestertons!

TrustpilotMy Experience with Chestertons…
I have had dealings with Chestertons twice; once when purchasing a flat and another when renting it out. Both my experiences have been good . The team is professional and most of the time, very efficient in dealing with all sorts of queries. My experience with the rental department has been way better than that of my purchase. All in all, I recommend this agency for those who seek quality service and support relating to issues concerning the sale, purchase or rental of a property.

TrustpilotLack of agent support
My experience was unexceptional right up until a prospective buyer said they'd buy. Once a buyer had been identified the estate agent was no longer interested and paid no further attention to the process going forward, except for a number of 'phone calls to try and 'persuade' me to move my completion date forward to meet the agent's target. I felt bullied and stressed by the behaviour of the agent. In follow up to his manager I felt that the matter was not taken seriously.January 2022, still waiting for someone to contact me for further information, other than the impersonal Trust Pilot request. As before, it appears bullying is not being taken seriously by Chestertons.
