GoogleMany thanks to Philip and Jon for guiding all the involved parties down the long and winding path towards sealing the deal, with professionalism and promptitude! You were instrumental in unblocking the process whenever it got stuck. Also, thank you Philip for being one of the few real estate agents who come off as honest and straightforward about all aspects. It really matters, at the end of the day.

TrustpilotGreat experience with KFH
We can't thank Sebastian and his team enough for the excellent service we received from Kinleigh, Southgate throughout our house sale/purchase. Totally supportive and professional. Sebastian was magnificent. He kept us updated throughout the process and did the solicitors job too while keeping everything on track. This is customer service of the highest level. I would highly recommend KFH

TrustpilotSadly no work ethics!
You are in your thirties, Now that you have a baby who is almost one, you start your search of a two bedroom place to buy. months and months every Saturday is filled with viewings and your baby probably thinks this is how life normally is. Finally you find a place you love, you make an offer and it gets accepted!! You are over the moon. You come home and dance out of excitement. Your baby does not get it but understands there is something nice going on. She will have a room after-all.You get asked some documents for the process to start and you send them immediately. You try to sort your mortgage and solicitor at the same time, too. Well these are hard but necessary steps to take. Everything is normal until now.But here comes the sickening part!Alina, the sales negotiator you worked with so far who is a lovely lady by the way is away for the week and leaves her assistant to take care of paperwork for her. They need your solicitors details to write the offer accepted letter. First thing Monday morning you email the details of your solicitor to that assistant. You have hours long mortgage application meetings with the broker afterwards and they have all your personal and bank details at that point. Peter West the assistant does not write back to you at all on Monday. Tuesday he is still quiet. You write a follow up email. No reply. Wednesday he writes back that he needs to contact the seller and wednesday night he asks you to call him. Yes unfortunately you are correct! In the meantime, even though your offer was accepted he did not care about his manager, did not care about you or your hopes and dreams, did not care about work ethics and did not care about the reputation of the real estate agency he works for and he kept on showing the flat to others, found a cash buyer of course and on the phone he says, “there is another flat, why don’t you look at that?”Yes there are thousands of flats all over the uk but is this fair to us? Is it fair to his superior? Is it ethical? Our mortgage application is accepted now with the flat gone missing. Couldn’t Peter show other flats to the cash buyer? Was the one with our accepted offer the only one they had in all of kfh? I feel so disappointed with the system and I think kfh needs to sort this out if it wants to prevent its reputation from being tarnished. Make things right!

Buying and selling a house is a tough process but the only constant, reliable, dependable and helpful person with us was our mortgage broker Sawan Shah. I cannot thank him and recommend him enough. Shout out to Sharon in his team as well for her support.

KFH went more than the extra mile in arranging multiple visits to the property and maintaining a close link between us and the vendors. As a result of this we were able to view and complete within a matter of weeks. I cannot recommend KFH too highly. Lisa and her team are first class.

GoogleFantastic estate agents (not to be said lightly!). Philip was incredibly efficient, and professional throughout the sourcing of, and purchase of, my flat. He effortlessly managed the 12 hour time difference between myself and the (Australia based) vendor, and was meticulous in his attention to detail. He was instrumental in making a very smooth and swift purchase possible. I would wholeheartedly recommend Philip, and all the team at KFH. I'm delighted with my new home! Many thanks.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

TrustpilotExceeded my expectations
I feel fortunate to have visited KFH Kennington, where I met Darren Tait. Darren gave us a very comprehensive overview of the company and how they could assist with my flat sale. It was a fairly long complex process due to 3rd parties, but Darren and Priyesh remained diplomatic and professional throughout and until we completed. I would unreservedly recommend them, they are true professionals!

TrustpilotFlat Purchase & Mortgage
On the whole, KFH have been efficient and professional throughout. A couple of staff we felt could have been far more empathetic and helpful explaining timelines, processes and giving more info rather than clipped/brief responses to our queries. However, mostly it's been a good experience with special mention to Daniel from Tooting branch and Iryna on the mortgage side standing out as really helpful and personable.

TrustpilotA thoroughly excellent service. Thank you!
KFH Crouch End recently dealt with a probate sale for us. Barrington and his team of David, Harry and Finn did a thoroughly excellent job. This could have been a challenging sale for us but their professionalism, market expertise and flexibility ensured that all went well.I would highly recommend their services and would have absolutely no hesitation in choosing them in the future.

Dimitri was super helpful in our search for a property, he was professional and super helpful in every aspect, unfortunately we opted for another property that suited us better with another agent but I would 100% recommend Dimitri and will contact him in the future for sure.

TrustpilotLucas Matta - Mortgage Consultant, KFH Tooting
Lucas was incredibly diligent throughout the mortgage process. As a first time buyer I had a number of questions and he was always on hand to answer them quickly and clearly. Not only did Lucas help me find a fair deal in a difficult market, he was well versed enough to spot where problems might arise and helped avoid any delays. I would recommend Lucas every time.

TrustpilotConfrontational in Peckham
A quick call this morning from the Peckham team has put me off using them. Confrontational and unpleasant, and not interested in the customer. I cancelled the valuation and chose a different agent to value and sell my house.

TrustpilotMostly communication was good
Mostly communication was good. And ultimately they got the job done!We used Catford Branch and the personal service we received from Tate Smith was what made the experience above average. She was patient and managed to liaise fairly and confidently between us and the other parties/solicitors. She was personable as well as efficient.

TrustpilotRoss and his team did a great job selling the flat
Ross and his team guided me through the house sale process and were very helpful every step of the way. Advising on price and whether to accept offers and when and if to adjust the price. They did all the marketing and arranged all the viewing and follow up. I would recommend Ross & KFH to anyone who wants to sell their home.

Hannah Chown in the Putney Branch helped manage a tricky sale, keeping me updated at every stage of the process. For my onward purchase Lucas Matta was fantastic from start to finish. He helped support us through the entire process ensuring we found a suitable deal in tight timescales.

TrustpilotAmazing - so helpful and supportive
We could not fault our experience with KFH, we felt so supported from start to finish. Charlotte and Max both went out of their way to help us, were available for any questions that we had, and were so persistent in helping us find the perfect place. Charlotte was so kind to deal with and was always happy to help. We would recommend KFH to everyone, and are so grateful.
