I wanted to take a moment to share my…

I wanted to take a moment to share my exceptional experience with Ann Dickson from Chestertons's Property Management team. Ann has been incredibly professional and supportive in resolving a challenging water ingress issue. Her dedication, responsiveness, and attention to detail truly set her apart.Throughout the process, Ann consistently demonstrated genuine care and professionalism, keeping me informed every step of the way and ensuring that all necessary actions were taken. Her proactive approach in advising on compensation for loss of rent and coordinating with the involved parties has been invaluable.I am deeply grateful for Ann's outstanding service and would highly recommend her and Chestertons to anyone seeking a reliable and supportive real estate professional. Thank you, Ann, for going above and beyond!

2 year tenancy.

I rented a property through Chesterton's for two years and from the moment my partner and I moved into the property James Smith the Property Manager made the process and duration of our stay smooth sailing. Whether we needed something fixed, or had a question about something to do with the property James was always attentive and responded quickly to get things sorted. All the while he was always polite and a pleasure to speak to.

Do not do business with them

Do not do business with them. They let a tradesman into my home without telling me. They gave him a key and he just opened the door. I thought I heard something upstairs. I walked up there and there was a man standing in my kitchen!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do you know how terrifying that is? They have messed up on many occasions.

I do strongly recommend Chestertons High street Kensington as I have had excellent services regarding letting my property. Chestertons have many branches and contacts that helps to find the right tenants as soon as the property is vacant and ready for new tenancy. Their clients are premium, they never failed to satisfy all needs regarding tenancies and advice to achieve best value. I have had excellent and professional service especially from Alexandra Carberry who have dealt with the tenancy professionally dealing with any disputes or concerns promptly and satisfactory to all parties given valuable advices throughout the tenancy.

It was my second time reaching out to Chestertons for assistance about the property which turns out to be fast and efficient about solving any queries and issues.

With a busy schedule and specific requirements, I needed an agent who could make the flat-hunting process quick and seamless, and Waad delivered perfectly! She was incredibly attentive, responsive, and focused on finding a place that met all my needs. Her knowledge of the neighborhoods and the flats she showed made the entire experience stress-free. If you’re looking for an agent who understands the needs of professionals, Waad is the one to call. Highly recommend!

Confident professional letting service

I've been using Chestertons as my letting agency for some 4 years now. I am happy with the services. They make sure I follow the rules and legislations, sort all property management out, deal with the tenants for me etc. Meaning that I do not need to lift a finger ever really.My new property manager Michell Vasquez is forthcoming, easy to communicate with, fast at responding and generally professional.

If I could leave 0 stars I would.... Landlords be VERY careful

If I could leave 0 stars I would. As a landlord I could never recommend their rental department. Chesterton's take high fees, provide little to no service and worst of all - hide things in the small print. Even though I moved agents (as Chestertons were sadly so bad) they are still demanding an annual fee (and it is not small) until my tenants move out. Even though they are no longer managing the property (and lets be honest, did very little management even when they were) they can still take the money due to their hidden clause. This was deliberately not pointed out to me. They are unfortunately very underhand.

Lettings

Update: the next day they said property is ready and that we should sign the contract to start tenancy on the same day, 1 hour after we signed, they said landlord planned carpet fitting in 1.5 week after move in date! Tenancy -Kew branch: Very disappointing and unprofessional experience with Chestertons. Our agreed move-in date was delayed by repeated referencing requests and poor coordination, with the delays unfairly blamed on us. After confirming a new move-in date and collecting the full rent and deposit, they informed us just two hours later that the property was not ready due to a missing gas safety certificate. This left us without accommodation, facing additional storage and temporary housing costs. Communication was extremely poor, including an agent hanging up on my partner when he raised concerns. A stressful experience showing dishonesty , a serious lack of organisation and accountability.

Would not use Chestertons again

Would not use Chestertons again. Very bad experience. Lack of transparency, fees and costs. Found them unprofessional in not taking responsibility for their own mistakes, subsequently costing me more money, as a landlord. Will not be providing Chestertons with any further business, with any of my properties in sales or rentals after this very disappointing, dishonest experience.

Thank-you Arthur and Ian for getting my sale through so smoothly. It made all the difference that you picked up the phone at crucial times to keep it on track.

Saskia is really professional and helpful. She helped me to take a video of my preferred house and explained everything about the property specifically. I am so grateful to have rented this house successfully. At the same time, she is kind-hearted as she helps my moving company to open the door without any hesitation.

My recent dealings with Chestertons…

My recent dealings with Chestertons were an absolute shambles! I needed to renew the current tenancy agreement ant the end of June and was advised it was in my best interests to form a new agreement rather than roll on the existing one. Because flat is in my recently deceased husbands name, I was asked to forward a copy of his will with details of the executors. I duly sent this , then was asked for a death certificate, then later a letter from a solicitor, which I didn’t feel was necessary as probate had been granted. I was then asked for the probate certificate which was duly sent. When I queried why the rent hadn’t been put into the bank account I was told we needed a new gas safety certificate which I immediately organised. I still didn’t receive the rent which the tenant had paid to Chestertons on 29th June and it was now nearly mid July. I eventually was put through to the accounts department after promises from different other operatives to chase up and sort out the problem which didn’t materialise.The accounts department were helpful and paid the money within 48 hours.Why couldn’t the relevant departments ask for all the documents needed at the same time instead of each time I rang to see why there was no progress?I really didn’t need all this hassle whilst coping with the recent loss of my husband.To make matters worse, I was then told you didn’t hold a current EICR certificate. Again I had to research and found the certificate was still in date . I relayed this information , but yet again was asked to forward a copy because there wasn’t one on the file. Why was the onus on me when there was obviously some departmental error?Just to cap it all I have now been issued with an invoiceasking for your whole years charges up front which I don’t have the funds for and you don’t accept credit card payments.As the July rent was paid net of your charges I assumed this was how it would be paid going forward.I now feel I just want to put the flat on the market as soon as possible so I don’t have to deal with any more issues like this.Marian Walker

Marian · 5 August 2024

Agent replied · 6 February 2025

Dear Mrs Walker, firstly please accept our sincere condolences for the loss of your husband. We have had time to review the file and we can see that there were additional documents that we legally required in order to complete the renewal of the Tenancy. Unfortunately when there is a death of a Landlord, we do have complete our due diligence checks as well as ensuring all the safety compliance documents are up to date. We are very sorry that this caused you unnecessary upset, this was never our intention.With regards to the fees charged, we have checked this with the accounts team and they have confirmed that these have been deduced in accordance with our Terms of Business; although on this occasion, it’s been invoiced monthly and deducted from the rent received and not in advance as you have advised. We would be very happy to have a further discussion regarding this to explain the statement if required.If you would like to discuss further, please do reach out to us and we can assist you wherever possible.
