Great team and highly recommended

I would like to thank the great team at KFH, especially Highgate branch, that helped and supported me throughout the whole purchasing process. It was a very good experience and managed to close the deal of the flat I was buying. I liked the one shop stop, not dealing necessarily with multiple vendors as through KFH I could action all needs and keep things coherent. Thanks to all the team, Euan, Sawan, Ravi for supporting the whole process, purchase, mortgage and insurance etc. just to mention few key points. Would highly recommend the team and branch.

Great choice

Choosing an estate agent is a huge decision in the house selling process. I can thankfully say despite being inundated with options in Beckenham that we choose well. Jack Greenhalf was excellent throughout the process & we felt he went above and beyond in all areas included assisting & advising with our purchase through another agent. From our experience we would certainly recommend & use KFH again should we move in the future.

Brilliant Agent and Team

The whole team, and in particular Laura, have been outstanding. Supporting us through a further two sales in recent weeks Laura acts with honesty and integrity at all times, balancing our needs as the seller with those of the buyer which can be a challenge. Regular open communication, and achieving brilliant outcomes means we will of course us KFH Southfields again in the near future.

Tim and his team at KFH Rosendale Road…

Tim and his team at KFH Rosendale Road looked after our sale. They were always available and responded promptly to all our queries. They were proactive in seeking viewings and keeping us informed. Each of the viewings were conducted with total professionalism and their feed back was very supportive. The whole process was as a result straightforward and they liaised with surveyors and solicitors easing our burden. The team also found us a property and ensured everything went as smoothly as possible. We would recommend them to anyone looking to sell or buy.

Sale of a 3 Bed Edwardian Terraced Probate House in Muswell Hill

Mathew Smith the Manager at KFH Muswell Hill provided the highest valuation for Probate and the lowest commission rate. The property was presented well on-line with an asking price £200k above Probate valuation. An offer was made immediately.Unfortinately buyers started to get cold feet as the market cooled and offers were withdrawn. One buyer tried to gazunder us and was firmly rebuffed. Our sales agent Elysia Charalambous was peristent in finding buyers in a difficult market following the Mini-budget and the average probate valuation was achieved as the final sale price. I would recommend KFH but advise to be not too greedy in a seller's rising market and steadfast in a buyer's falling market. Estate agents in general, want to get the highest price in the quickest time possible.

Tate S in Catford was amazing!

Highly recommend Tate Smith in the Catford office! I bought a property through her which completed last week and can honestly say had it not been for Tate I don’t think the sale would have gone through! She’s super professional and knows her stuff yet also approachable, friendly and honest, nothing’s too much to ask. She was extremely helpful throughout and always on hand to answer any questions or queries I had. Thanks so much Tate, when I eventually come to sell I know who I’ll be calling! Amazing service from start to finish!

A brilliant, friendly team. Highly recommended.

Jimmy, Linda and the team at KFH Wimbledon branch were amazing. From the very first meeting, they felt right. They were patient, kind, and most of all really good at what they do. They always stayed in touch every step of the way and I really felt that they were doing their very best for me. I had previously gone with a cheaper estate agents which turned out to be a big mistake so it took the right person to come along. I can’t recommend them enough. Thanks all!

Pervin from KFH Islington Branch

I have been looking for a property since November last year. It was quite a tumultuous time in the property market & I had a lot of problems with selling my own house. Pervin from KFH Islington was a breath of fresh air. I have had difficult experiences with previous estate agents but she has completely changed my mind. I had quite specific needs and Pervin was always ringing me and giving me a heads up on properties that had just come on the market and always catered to exactly what I wanted. Even when I said I had given up looking for a while she still had me in mind and would phone me when she thought a property that I would like came up. Usually estate agents will just flood you with anything to get your business but I really felt like she cared. Thank you Pervin you are worth your weight in gold! KFH Islington you have an absolute star there. Thank you for all your help :)

Very good experience with KFH and Natalia

I bought a flat through KFH and I sold the same flat through KFH. I felt the commission was a little on the higher side however they have been helpful, consistent and good communication. I'd like to specially thank Natalia for all her efforts in finding a buyer and multiple viewing, followup with the buyers and keeping me informed. Thank You

Get KFH to do everything

Get KFH to do everything! We recent sold and purchased with KFH, they organised our conveyancing and provide mortgage brokering services too. I honestly couldn't be happier with the service provided. The estate agents were amazing (Gintare at Brockley branch is fantastic, such a brilliant communicator), the seamlessness of sorting mortgage arrangements through Fred Abeyata and the legals through their London

We had the pleasure of working with Francesca Martin from KHC in Putney, and she’s simply fantastic! She helped us find the most amazing house, complete with incredible features. Francesca made the entire process feel effortless, and her expertise really shone through. We’re absolutely thrilled with our new home, all thanks to her dedication and keen eye. If you’re looking for a top-notch agent, Francesca is the one to go to!

Worst experience - poor maintenance

Worst experience. I live on Gayton road, Harrow. We live in a high rise building and lifts are not working since many weeks. Kfh is least bothered about people living here. We have raised our concerns multiple times to Kfh, but they are least bothered about it. We have to climb up the stairs on daily basis. Kfh keeps coming back with all kinds of excuses, and have not bothered to get even the small issues fixed. Pathetic situation, and we are stuck with the contract. If you are planning to switch home, just avoid if it is maintained by Kfh.

Lucas - the best Mortgage Broker around!

We had a great experience with Lucas Matta as first time buyers. We spoke to a few brokers before Lucas, and he is a cut above the competition. Lucas went out of his way to ensure that all concerns were put to rest and his reassuring advice was a godsend during a stressful period. He helped us find the best deal within a matter of days and I have been recommending him to friends ever since. He is an asset to KFH!

Overall very pleased with the way the sale of the house went. I must say that to start with they completely over valued the property.Eventually though they arranged the sale to a buyer who was in an extremely good position. Sophie was very professional and kept us informed at every part of the sale.KFH Earlsfield were the branch we used.

Such an incredible working with Summer from KFH. Her patience, dedication and resourcefulness exceeded my expectations and made the experience of finding a flat less stressful. Summer went above and beyond to stay in constant communication with me and I knew throughout, she was committed to helping me secure a flat I absolutely love. I will continue working with KFH Clerkenwell for all of my flat-finding needs. Couldn’t speak more highly of the experience

The entire team at KFH Clerkenwell is utterly fantastic - Lewis has got a great crew! I've rented two properties from them in the last five years and they have delivered both impeccably - simply wonderful service. If you go in, ask for Summer - she's awesome! Not only did she work steadfastly to get me exactly what was needed, but she was a joy to deal with. Couldn't have been in safer hands!

K(ind) F(ocused) H(ardworking)!

Recently I was in the position where I urgently needed to buy a house after a divorce, for reasons that were both financial - renting was fast depleting my ever dwindling savings - and emotional - I felt very unanchored and discombobulated, and in need of a permanent base. The task of finding and buying a house at a time I could barely manage a grocery shop felt inconceivable: onerous, overwhelming, and frankly terrifying. Thankfully one of the first agents I met was Che Eleftheriou from KFH Crouch End who not only showed me properties that fit my wish list perfectly, but also seemed to instinctively understand that it wasn’t an easy time for me, and that I would require some hand-holding. The process - made infinitely more difficult for me due to ADHD and an innate aversion to forms and procedures - was far less taxing and stressful than it might have been, thanks to his patience and consistency. I will always be grateful to Che and the team for ushering me into a new chapter, set in a wonderful home that I still can’t quite believe is mine.

We purchased a property through KFH, Disappointed

We purchased a property through KFH West Dulwich. Many months after our offer was accepted, we finally completed and moved in, to our surprise on that day the house didn’t resemble much the property we had agreed to buy.

Catherine at the Beckenham branch was incredibly helpful

Catherine at the Beckenham branch was incredibly helpful. We had had a real problem with our previous estate agent, and were at risk of losing our onward purchase. We switched to KFH, and a buyer was secured in the first round of viewings, and progressed to completion very quickly. Catherine was really thoughtful and reassuring throughout, and was very committed to helping push the sale through, after our previous bad experience with a different agent

Immaculate mortgage consultancy from Lucas

As a first time buyer, I had very little information to start off and needed a fair amount of help. Fortunately I was passed onto Lucas Matta who was incredible throughout the whole process and gave lots of information on different mortgage types and rates, allowing me to make decisions without pressure. Then when it came to getting the mortgage organised, he worked efficiently to get the application out very quickly.The level of help and responsiveness was brilliant and I felt I could always ask Lucas if I had a question. I highly recommend. Thank you Lucas!

And the oscar goes to….

Mr Andre St Clair Walcott!! I cannot recommend our mortgage broker Mr Andre St Clair Walcott highly enough. Throughout the entire process, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. He consistently demonstrated the utmost in professionalism, ethics and trustworthiness, making what can often be a stressful and confusing process feel straightforward and manageable.One of the things that impressed us most was how easy he was to reach and how responsive he was to our questions and concerns. He was always available and willing to go the extra mile to ensure that we fully understood every aspect of our mortgage agreement. Thanks to his guidance, we were able to navigate the complexities of securing a mortgage with ease.In addition to being highly communicative and responsive, Andre was an expert in his field. His knowledge and expertise were evident from the very first interaction, and he was able to provide us with guidance and advice that proved invaluable throughout the process.Overall, I would say that our broker is truly deserving of any and all accolades that might come his way. If there were Oscars for the mortgage brokering industry, he would undoubtedly earn one. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for expert mortgage advice and support. Sedef

The best mortgage broker on the planet!

I was introduced to Sawan Shah as a mortgage broker when I tried to purchase a property listed by KFH. He was so fantastically helpful that I decided to keep his services even after the initial sale fell through and I moved on to another non-KFH listed property. Sawan went above and beyond at each and every stage of the process, helping me navigate the volatile mortgage market at the end of 2022 and start of 2023. He always made time to talk me through every offer and greatly helped with my decision making. He is also incredibly responsive to any small question I had, always replying within a few hours. This is in stark contrast with other brokers who are often AWOL for weeks or get annoyed if you ask too many questions.I can't recommend Sawan's services enough!
