They increased our rent by £600 a month, forcing us out to move out. On top of that came back with a £££ list of "repairs" such as £100 for 10 nails in the walls.

Hi Elwira,Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. We're sorry to hear about your unsatisfactory experience with Chestertons. Please do respond to our request for more information so that we can investigate this matter.Many thanks,ChestertonsUpdated Rseponse:Hi Elwira, We appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns with us. We understand that average rents have significantly increased over the past year, with some cases seeing a rise of 25-30% - where possible we work with landlords and tenants to agree a term that suits both. Regarding end of tenancy dilapidations and potential deductions from your deposit, these matters are subject to the check-in and check-out reports, as well as mutual agreement between both parties. If you find yourself unable to reach an agreement with your landlord, there is a dispute resolution service available through the deposit provider. The details regarding this service were provided to you in the initial end of tenancy guidelines.We genuinely empathise with the challenges you have faced, and we sincerely wish you the best in your search for a new property. Should you require any further assistance or have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.Many thanks,Chetsertons

Great experience working with Basil and Cosmo from the lettings team in SW7. We have worked twice together in the last year and actually ended up not being in business on both occasions but their service was the best: thoughtful, responsive and to the point. Highly recommend them.

I currently let my flat through Chestertons and Joyce has recently taken over managing it. She's been an absolute dream, polite, efficient and super helpful, she is a real asset.

5 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.

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.

Extremely 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.

Lethargic 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.

AS · 1 November 2022

Agent replied · 6 February 2025

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.

STAY 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.
