Outstanding support from start to finish.

Sam at Savills was professional, efficient, helpful, and courteous throughout our home-buying experience. It was not an easy transaction, but she struck a good balance between protecting her clients' interests and providing us with outstanding service. She was honest, transparent, and communicative throughout the process, remaining calm and helpful, keeping things moving forward despite the challenges.

Savills - Alex Hewitt

Alex takes a long-term view to client relationships - a breath of fresh air in today's transactional property market. In the weeks we worked together, I came to rely on Alex for his honest feedback, his patience and genuine desire to provide me with clear and helpful information, cutting through the "noise". I highly recommend Alex and his team at the Earls' Court Office - with Alex Hewitt, you are in very good hands.

Recently sold my flat with Savills Islington. They went above and beyond with their service. Lots of contact and updating along the process - Ele was fantastic. Dan was also really knowledgeable at the start and was really helpful with negotiating the price with my buyers. Couldn't have been happier with the team at Savills and will definitely recommend them to any friends.

Overpriced, cynical and rude service for landlords

We as landlords are completely unsatisfied with Savills as our letting and managing agency. It is a thing that they are unexceptionally expensive, but for the price they don't give back extra value. First thing we haven't received our half a year report, just after several calls and emails and as a 9-month report with a letting contract run for 12 months. Our property valuation happend via pictures. There was a photographer who came out, than the women who provided the report just looked the pictures and said her opinion about our letting property via them. She has never been in the flat and saw it byself personally! Interesting.....!We decided to leave this overpriced agency, and after it the style of their emails and the treatment is more than disgusting. We do NOT recommend them at all, we think they overcharge landlords, and how they handled us as landlords when we decided to leave them was cynical and rude. They want to HOLD BACK OUR FLOAT MONEY, telling to us that our new agency advertising falsely, eventhough the new agency changed already the advertisement. We are not responsible for any agencies and their advertisements, and we think it is UNLAWFUL to hold back a landlord's money for claiming an other agency's act. We are seriously thinking of taking further steps in this case.They let us feel as second class people, but they have forgotten one thing: WE PAY THEIR SALARY, because without our payment they do NOT HAVE BUSINESS and NO WAGES! They do NOT MAKE FAVOUR for a landlord, WE PAY A FORTUNE FOR THEIR SERVICE, they live from us.

Great Service!

I was in the market for a property, however I was pretty lost and had no idea where to start. I called Savils and requested a meeting - Jayden Campbell was the associate who I had the meeting with. he walked me through my options and helped me understand the current market, very friendly and inviting. Without him I would've still been searching around cluelessly.

Savills photographers unlawful practice.

To start off with if I could give minus stars I would. I am selling my Mothers bungalow on another auction site. Up to now the buyer and I have exchanged contracts but completion has not taken place yet. The buyer decided to take the law into his own hands and change the locks on my mothers property, he also put the property that he doesn't own yet on Savills auction site, by chance I come across my Mothers property on Rightmove with photographs outside and inside the property, I contacted Savills to tell them the property does not belong to the person who had asked them to list the property on their site. I spoke to one of the reps who's name was Jay, he apologised and said he would have the listing removed, which he did. I then spoke to Ralph Mendes da Costa, I informed him that the photographs taken inside the house and round the back of the house were taken illegally because the person who listed it does not own the property yet. I asked Ralph to tell me what details were supplied to Savills regarding the ownership of the property and the perspective sellers legal right to sell it. He said once contracts are exchanged he has the right to sell it. I am not disputing this because I am unsure of the legalities of it. Ralph asked for my email address so he could send me a response, so far I have not heard anything. I am going to seek legal guidance on this because Savills photographers have entered my Mothers property illegally and taken photographs of her personal living space without permission because she is still the legal owner of the property. Friday the 16th Feb 2024 my son phoned Savills and asked about the property and the response he got was yes its still for sale, how can this be explained, from a big company like Savills this should not be happening. In my opinion this is no better than breaking and entering and trespass at the least, I will leave that up to a legal representative.

I had a great experience with Ele Robertson at Savills. From start to finish, she was the consummate professional especially during some tricky times and uncertain delays! Ele was so helpful, friendly and accommodating. I cannot recommend her and the Savills team enough!

Just bought my first home with Savills, they were absolutely brilliant from beginning of the process to the end. The Sales team were great at the beginning when doing viewings and Leah has been 10/10 from the offer stage through to completion. She’s been really fast to respond to any questions, friendly, kind & professional. Thank you Savills and thank you Leah!

I recently sold my 1-bedroom flat in Islington via Savills. I haven't got enough nice things to say about them, especially Leah and Katy. They were proactive, positive and had a fantastic problem-solving mentality. They kept the sale moving at pace and no query from me was too small or too stupid. I would recommend working with them in the very strongest terms, my experience was superb.

The most appaling company to work for

The most appaling company to work for. I was put on a new homes site to work with no lighting I had to walk 15 mins in the dark to the train station in fields. A female lone working then to add insult to injury made to fill out a H&S assessment saying I had been given a personal alarm that I hadn't been given to meet their H&S lone working requirements! There was no internet and then I signed up house sales with absolutely no training oñ Savills paperwork and yet still sold houses for them showing their customers broken tile examples. I left after a few weeks trust me the name Savills is not associated with Quality and as for management support one manager was on holiday abroad the whole time I worked and the other was off sick the whole time!

Excellent management service in Islington

Thank you Deanna!

Deanna Addis has been looking after our 2 properties for years and we have always been very impressed by her. She is always extremely organised and gets any issues resolved quickly, making everything very easy for us. We always feel in the loop and updated as she takes time to communicate with us regularly.

I have entrusted Savills Islington with the letting of my flat in Islington. As a Swiss, I don't know the procedures in England well. That's why it was very important to have a good partner. From the beginning, Holly Goodge and her team (Georgina Catton and Lucy Whistler) looked after me excellently. But also the other Savills specialists (Evelina Grigorovic-Aziz and Aaliyah Sober) supported me very well. Everyone was always responsive, helpful and extremely motivated to complete the rental quickly and successfully. They have driven the rental forward very competently and professionally. Thanks to the great commitment, the rental could finally be successfully completed. Thank you! I highly recommend the Savills Islington lettings team.

Context: I was looking to rent a flat. The staff at Savills are doing a good job of fighting the negative stereotypes about lettings agents. They are patient, professional and friendly, and I didn't feel like they were constantly pushing me to make decisions. Even though they did call and encourage me to make offers on places I liked, it always felt respectful. I didn't even end up making an offer with Savills, but they were nice to me about that too and wished me good luck on an offer I made through a different agent. I hope other lettings agents realise that even for tenants - usually the group with the least amount of power and choice - can make a decision about which organisations to work with. Thanks for beating my expectations. In this office I worked with Lucy, Jacob and one other of their colleagues who sadly I don't remember the name of.

I don't often take the time to write reviews but I would like to highlight my positive experience with Savills. I came across Savills among other agencies in Islington during my search for a one-bedroom rental flat and had several viewings with them. They were always punctual, transparent and professional. The search was proving very difficult due to the current rental market being very competitive. Nevertheless, Lucy (big shout out to her!) kept contacting me with new potential flats and I finally managed to secure a flat thanks to Lucy having me on top of her list when another potential tenant dropped out during the referencing process. I needed to move in urgently, so Lucy did her very best to speed up the process and assist me with the right to rent and referencing steps as well as negotiate the best outcome with the landlord. As a result, I was able to move into the flat one week after Lucy had called me to say the flat had become available again - truly record-breaking! My experience with Savills has continued to be positive since my move-in during mid March 2023, with my new contact person being quite responsive regarding a maintenance issue that came up after my move-in. Thank you Savills - especially Lucy - for helping me find my new home!

Good experience all round

Victoria at Savills Newbury was a pleasure to deal with.She was highly professional and most importantly kept in constant touch and was always available either directly on the phone or by email. Our move was quite lengthy until exchange but the entire team at Savills were very calm and nothing was too much trouble.We would not hesitate to recommend them to other homebuyers. Thank you all very much.

I had an incredible experience with Savills! Particularly Tom Newman. He helped me find and secure an incredible apartment. Very responsive, attentive and helpful through the process, including after signing. Cognizant it will be in a new sales role, but would highly recommend him.

Sue was very good at keeping us informed.

Sue was very good at keeping us informed of the progress with the sale which was dragging on due to external influences. Earlier on when dealing with another colleague, I felt I was having to do the chasing but it was much better when Sue took over and she made a massive effort to make sure everything was put in place for us.
