Trustpilot5 Stars review for Chestertons - Andrew
Finding a flat could be very overwhelming. Andrew assisted me every step of the process especially the viewing and offer stages. He really understood my preference from the first call that i had with him. The best agency that I have ever dealt with; very professional and experience.
Thank you for your review! We are so pleased to hear of your positive experience with Chestertons.

TrustpilotGreat letting, Poor management
Very good at letting the property, 5 stars for that. Howebver incredibly poor at managing maintenance of property - huge delays getting quotes or work done. Tenants very upset as well as us

GoogleWe recently rented a flat through Chestertons Islington. Simon was our letting agent and he provided excellent service. He was always available to help when we had queries. The team at Islington was helpful and friendly, and made the whole process smooth. Highly recommended!

Best estate agent experience we've had thus far. Stav and Olivia have been super responsive and helpful throughout (from the very beginning arranging flat viewings with us, helping us put in an offer, and answering and solving any queries we've had about the property). Would definitely recommend Chestertons to family/friends!
Thank you for sharing!

We had a good experience with Chestertons so far. Moving into the property and signing the contract was pretty straightforward. My only concern is that I've complained about a few things that needed to be renewed in the house a few months back and no one took action.
Thank you for sharing your experience with Chestertons, we appreciate your feedback. If you still have any unresolved issues, please accept our request for your contact info so that this can be addressed as soon as possible.

GoogleTheir help center is very polite, but completely disfunctional. I was waiting for the engineer for 2 hours, and nobody appear, help center just saying sorry and that's it, they didn't manage to answer when it will happen UPD: its getting worse. The shower is broken, and they can't organize fix for a week! Saying something strange, like the person responsible for a fix isn't there and offering me to write emails to they. We also agreed on removing sofa, but the agent continue to feed me with "I'll arrange it" for 2 weeks. Didn't clean the appartment. This is not a service, it's a joke.

GoogleVery frustrating experience. Went to view a flat with my daughter who is looking to buy. Both of us took time out to do so. The agent did not turn up . When my daughter called him he said he had called her on several occasions to say it was not possible to view the flat. He had called once but whilst we were on our way to the property. He did not leave a message or email. My daughter then agreed to view another property he suggested but he put the phone down without giving her the address. She called back several times. He eventually called her back saying he had left to meet us but had left his phone at his office and had had to return for it. He hadn't even given her the address so we could meet him! People make mistakes but this agent came across as not only totally incompetent and disorganised but also unconcerned as at no point did he apologise. Indeed he laid the blame at my daughter for not answering her phone. She was unable to do so as we were on the train with no signal. Probably best to avoid selling or purchasing through the Islington office.

TrustpilotExtremely unprofessional
Extremely unprofessional, do not use Chestertons if you are a prospective tenant. Company did not turn up to check-in appointment (to deliver keys), don't answer emails and sends aggressive emails whenever they want something. Will never rent an apartment through this agency again.
Dear Truls, we are very concerned by your review and would like to investigate this matter further. We will be sending you a request for contact information, if you could please complete this.Thank you

TrustpilotLethargic service
This company does not nothing for tenants after moving in and are extremely unresponsive when it comes to returning deposits. I had to email the landlord directly to get my deposit returned. It took over 5 weeks to get my money back.
Hi there, we're sorry to read of your experience and thank you for responding to our request for further details. We have escalated this to our Property Management team for further investigation and will provide you with an update shortly. ___Updated Response:Hi AS,Thank you very much for your patience whilst we investigated this matter. Unfortunately the process was delayed by the landlord review when you moved out, and the further discussions between them and yourself to resolve a disagreement around charges. Rest assured, we tried our very best to speed up this process and release your deposit as quickly as possible, sincerest apologies if it seemed like we were unresponsive, that’s certainly not how we want our clients to feel. We wish you all the best, and please do not hesitate to get in touch if you need any further assistance.

TrustpilotSTAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY
Extremely unprofessional. My landlord uses this company to manage his property, however the property manager assigned to the property does not answer emails. 6 months later, still no answer despite several follow-ups. Do not rent/buy from this company.
Hi Peter, we're sorry to see you have left us this rating and thank you for providing us with further information privately. Based on the details you provided, we are having trouble locating you within our system. Please could you email social@chestertons.co.uk with the address in question so we can assist further?

Cas from the little Venice office was totally fantastic, she went over and beyond what most agents would do, even working after hours to secure me a deal. She wasn’t pushy as I’ve experienced some agents to be. I cannot rate her highly enough. She is an asset to the company
Thank you for the five star review, we've shared this with Cas in Little Venice and she sends her best wishes and thanks!
Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
Tell us what you need and we'll put you in touch. Chestertons Islington hasn't joined The Trusted Agent yet, so we'll pass your enquiry to them or to up to three other top-rated agents near Islington.
