TrustpilotWithheld my deposit
Withheld my deposit. I left the place cleaner than I found it. Difficult and unprofessional in the checkout process. Shame as prior to that Jack and Julia were very helpful.
Thank you for your review. We are disappointed to hear your feedback and would like to assure you that we absolutely would never withhold a deposit if an agreement between Landlord and Tenant has been made. We would like to look into your experience further and invite you to contact customercare@hamptons.co.uk with your full name and details who can then look into this further

TrustpilotExcellent Customer Service from Jocelyn Williams…
Jocelyn Williams has recently taken over the management of my property. I would definitely recommend Hamptons and in particular Jocelyn. She is consistently attentive to both landlord and tenant. I am very impressed with the speed of dealing with situations and actioning items that need addressing. Well done!

Can I just say how easy it is to deal with Hamptons. As a company they are polite, professional, very friendly, and get the job done with absolutely no hassle at all. Rebecca Hitchman has been a pleasure to work with and I look forward to building that relationship on any/all future business.

TrustpilotRude, disrespectful and arrogant.
The sales agent is extremely rude, disrespectful and messes us around. We had kept several days free in order to have viewings, and in the last minute, they said the viewings will not happen. On top of that, they promised to show us properties, and last minute had additional requests on what we need to provide them with - for a simple viewing only !
Thank you for leaving us a review, customer service is very important to us and we are naturally disappointed to read your feedback. We would welcome the opportunity to address your comments further and kindly ask you to contact customercare@hamptons.co.uk with your details so we can investigate. Thank you again.

GoogleI can highly recommend this estate agent. How many other agencies would get a tenant in less than 24 hours at the asking price?! Fantastic service. They have been supportive and helpful throughout the process. They have gone above and beyond the norm to make this a smooth transition for myself and the new tenants. Huge thank you to this team and in particular to Adam Baker.
Thank you for the great feedback Amanda. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review and are thrilled to hear that your experience with Hamptons Estate and Letting Agents Kensington was exceptional. The team will be pleased to read your review!

TrustpilotHamptons letting service
I have been letting out my property with Hamptons using their fully managed service. I spend a lot of time abroad and have peace of mind that both, the house and the tenants are being cared for. Amelia, who is dealing with the maintenance issues is proactive, efficient and professional. She managed major works at the property in between lettings efficiently and has a keen eye for detail. The rest of the lettings team at Hamptons are all knowledgeable and good people to deal with. I highly recommend them to any landlords.

TrustpilotHighly recommend our local Hamptons
We have rented three substantial family homes through Hamptons, our first being in Marlow in 2009. We are moving again, thanks to the wonderful team at Hamptons who found us a lovely new rental (due to current landlord deciding to sell) and I wanted to take the time to thank the team at Hamptons for all the fantastic service we have had for years at our current rental.In particular, thank you to property manager, Mandy, who has been amazing and has the best executive function skills of anyone I have ever met. Mandy never failed to respond to me the same day if we had issues, always polite, interested, and thorough...just how Mandy juggles all these jobs for different properties with communicating with landlords, tenants, and contractors I will never know, but she does so effortlessly with professionalism and seems to thrive on it. All the Hamptons tradespeople Mandy hires are also all so very nice, accommodating and respectful about entering our home that I don’t mind at all them coming over, and they all sing Mandy's praises too. Having in the past rented with other real estate companies, as well rented owner-managed properties, when we had to look for another rental, we were actively looking for Hampton properties so we could stay with Hamptons and continue to have our rental managed by the amazing Mandy. Thank you also so much to Sonja and Maxine in rentals and Harleigh in accounts, who are all lovely and effortlessly and professionally manage the initial relationship between Landlord and tenant, with no request on either side too small or insignificant. What makes Sonja and Maxine in rentals stand out for us is, they understand that in the rental market, property is anything but bricks and mortar. For tenants, our rental property is our home, it’s the place we choose to invest in to live with our children and create life-time memories. For for landlords, their rental property is the, or one of the, most expensive assets they will own. Landlords also have a very diverse range of reasons for renting, for some it’s an investment, a cash cow for extra funds and they want to streamline the costs as much as possible, for others they are renting a treasured home for a period of time, and they want to be reassured that their home will be well maintained. Sonja and Maxine get all this, in fact I think they are the only real estate agents who we have rented with who do get this. Sonja, Maxine and Mandy all understand and respect these different perspectives and realise that one size does not fit all in the rental market; in this day and age of social media anyone can post details on Rightmove and help with signing the right legal contracts, but it’s the grey and unwritten bits in between that help make sure a rental relationship between the landlord and the tenant goes well. And it is this grey and unwritten area, mostly focused on good relationship building, where Hamptons excels the most.This continual relationship building is so important because with any business relationship, if all parties are happy than there is more give and take on all sides. Having been a landlord ourselves, I almost don't get why some real estate agents don't understand this...a happy tenant means a better outcome for their client, the landlord. Just one week of an empty rental property can make a huge difference to rental income, Hamptons builds positive relationships with both landlords and tenants so they have a database of happy tenants they know to be good tenants who they can draw upon and fill vacancies quickly. A happy tenant is also more likely to take better care of a property and they are also more likely to stay longer meaning the landlord will not have to readvertise their rental as often.So, from one happy tenant who are long-term regular renters, we could not recommend Hamptons and our local team highly enough.

TrustpilotHamptons is an excellent agency
I have rented out my property through Hamptons for several years and frankly, they are fantastic. In particular, Andrew Walker was very helpful and professional with all the new legislation and was always on hand to call me back and follow up on any concerns. First class agency. Highly recommended.

TrustpilotTerrible Agents
I bought my flat via Hamptons and later used them as management agents when letting it out but have had constant issues with them throughout. I really would avoid using them at all costs. I find my property manager incredibly lazy and difficult to contact. I regularly have to resolve issues myself and have to spell everything out to my property manager. Whilst my property manager was on annual leave I had a colleague of hers cover however she knew absolutely nothing about the property and tried to charge me for the tenants broken TV. They do not act in the interest of the landlord and look for the quickest fix to a problem to get it off their plate. I was charged £200 overall for 2 boiler safety checks that I was harassed into organising because “legally” they were required. I found out that these checks were NOT required by law because the boiler had just been installed and this lead to a delayed start to my tenancy. I received about 6 aggressive missed calls whilst I was at work from Hamptons to harass me into paying for these visits. Every minimum charge for a “recommended” tradesman to attend my property comes in at exactly £100 so Hamptons are uplifting these costs on top of the fees I pay. I really have very little faith in them and can’t wait for my tenancy to end. More recently I received a court summons notice for unpaid council tax that I was not made aware of because Hamptons didn’t send me any of the prior notices.

TrustpilotAmazing service is an understatement
We've been renting through the Hamptons for the past 4 years. Our contract was due to expire soon, and we were unsure whether to stay or find something else, possibly for a bit less money. It's been a super stressful 2 months for us, and we were unsure if we would be able to find something else on time. We've been dealing with our property managers, Patryk Lehmann and his colleague Darren Salmon. They were both extremely helpful and patient with us. They worked their magic to assist us, and indeed they did. Their massive help made the whole process super easy and stress-free for us. We were even able to stay at the same property. Absolutely amazing and outstanding customer service from both of them.
