Supportive

Toby was really helpful with supporting us through the early part of our purchase of our property. He was incredibly informative, kept us up to date with any changes/information and was always available when we needed help. Alistair supported us towards the end of the process. Alistair has been brilliant!! He has responded to every query quickly, ensured everyone knows exactly what is happening and has been really supportive when there was a slight delay towards the end - he has made the process a lot less stressful!

Caroline France was fantastic from start to finish. There is no one who knows this development as well as she does and she steered us through all the arrangements with her normal professionalism, efficiency and care. We cannot thank her enough.

My recent experience with Dexters…helpful property manager Donalina Gargrupe

My recent experience with Dexters Property Management in Kingston is good, in particular I find that Donalina Gargrupe has communicated well, sorting out minor snagging issues for my tenants at a reasonable fee while keeping me well informed. I appreciate her attention to detail and balanced approach. She is also negotiating with the council on my behalf on matters for which they have responsibility - not always an easy task!It is vital as a landlord to be able to trust the agents managing your property.

A first-class service

Throughout the time Dexters have managed our property, we have been very impressed. Particularly with Steven Hewitt and his team who are contactable, responsive and efficient. A first-class service is provided. Well done and keep it up!

Appalling estate agent, unprofessional and unhelpful

We let our old family home through Dexters in Streatham Hill in October 2019. We dealt with Tatiana, an agent who is still with the company in some capacity, according to the manager of that branch. The tenants they found were professional scammers, and proper due diligence would have discovered that they had taken out cases against previous landlords. As it was, they asked for extra time to pay the deposit (which we agreed), and when they moved in, asked to paint the house white (which we refused, but they did anyway). They also brought in a dog, which was explicitly not allowed in the tenancy agreement.There was a small leak from the bathroom which we fixed, but that set off a string of spurious complaints about the condition of the hosue, which Dexters had vetted and approved before letting. After we visited the house and refused to repair something that wasn't broken, the tenants gave notice, and in February 2020, left the house without allowing us to visit to check the condiiton of the property. They walked away with a 43 inch plasma TV, and damage to the house. They then had the cheek to take out a money claim which we settled in order to avoid litigation and further expense. They accepted less than a third of what they were claiming, showing that the claim was indeed spurious.Throughout all this, Dexters and Tatiana in particular, were useless and unsupportive, apart from an occasional email to tell the tenants they could not do any unauthorised painting. We firmly believe that Tatiana and the branch were not at all bothered about the calibre of tenants they brought in and did not carry out the requisite checks. They did, at least, accept that we should not have to pay them more than £6000 in charges, which they were claiming for having found the tenants. As a result of COVID, the house remained empty until August 2020, so we lost more than £15,000 in rent.The new manager had the gall to ask if we would be interested in letting through them again. When I queried whether they had kept a complete record of the previous tenants, including a check-out process, so I could sort out the council tax owed by the tenants, she said they had not. So I cannot prove to the local authority that I am not liable for council tax for the period the tenants were in the house, since the leaving date is not recorded.All in all, this was a traumatic and annoying experience for us and we would strongly recommend you stay away from Dexters at all costs. They are unprofessional and not all helpful. We have only just finished dealing with all the fallout, and still have to get them to write to the local authority about the date the tenants moved out.

UNPROFESSIONAL PEOPLE

We like to mention how disappointed was the experience with Dexter, this is the first time in years of tenancy that we have experienced such a lack of professionalism and transparency from an estate agency.On Friday 9th we expressed our interest in a flat, we waited 3 days to have confirmation that the offer was accepted from the landlord, THREE, we finally received a confirmation from the estate agent after three days saying that the offer was accepted so we paid the holding deposit in order to BLOCK THE FLAT, paying the holding deposit means:"Once you have paid the holding deposit, the tenancy is assumed to be agreed subject to referencing. The landlord should not proceed with other tenants, and must not accept any other holding deposits or offers"We then received a call few hours later the holding deposit was taken where the agent said over the phone: the landlord received another offer from another agency, WOULD YOU LIKE TO OFFER MORE?In my opinion the offer from the other agency should have not going through at all, second of all, if the landlord has accepted another offer, why did they even propose me to offer more? which game do they play?No serious at all, very disappoint.I strongly reccomend to avoid this agency.

I didn’t want to mention this situation again, but we are having trouble understanding what he is doing. He’s in a senior position at Dexters. There’s no valid reason to withhold our deposit due to trivial reasons. We are confident in retrieving our deposit through TDS, so we’ve asked Dexters Management to handle it. However, he hasn’t completed the application, citing technical issues with TDS. We contacted TDS and kept a record; they informed us that Dexters hasn’t finished the entire application form and then has been deleted it. We’ve faced numerous issues and delays since November 8th and still haven’t received any updates unless we reach out to him. Could you please ask the Dexters Management team at Queens Gardens to finish the application as soon as possible and provide us with a case number? I want to share the case on my public website, but it hasn’t been updated yet, and I’m getting really frustrated with this unprofessional and poor management. Please provide us with just the number of the case that he can hand over, and we can move on from this horrible nightmare situation. Don’t ask me to email the Dexters customer service team because it hasn’t helped anything, and I want the Dexters customer team to contact him and let him get back to us with just the case number so he can be free. I don’t understand why this is being so silly and unfair to our weak position now. He shouldn’t be able to handle it this way. Again, it’s super clear. We need to get back our deposit, and we have confidence in TDS. So please finish the application process and don’t say it’s getting finished within a timeline. It’s the most unfair situation I’ve ever encountered in my life! Please, Dexters. Cheers

The sales side of Dexters is 5 star plus, in my point of view.

As a Landlord whose property Dexters has managed for many years, I am on the whole satisfied. The sales side of Dexters is 5 star plus, in my point of view. Zahra, who I deal with, is early on the case at the end of each tenancy and works flat out to find the best tenant for me. She gives very good advice but also listens to my requirements as a client. What lets Dexters down a little, for me, is its property management team. They operate a sort of pool system, which gives me the feeling that no one is taking personal responsibility. Often when I call the office I find I directed to someone new who I have not spoken to before. Quite often important pieces of information have been left off my file by the previous colleague. In addition, some of the staff seem inexperienced in the maintenance issues which they are handling. It would be good if I was kept updated on who my personal contact was at any point in time.

Highly recommended !!

The end to end service was fantastic during our recent property sale. The team at Twickenham in particular Nina were extremely professional and went above and beyond. I have used Dexter's services for the last 15 years for sales and letting and would not look anywhere else in the Twickenham area.

Dexters - St. John’s Wood - Patrick Downham

Had a very positive experience working with Patrick at the St. John’s Wood Dexters office. I had very limited time to find a flat before starting my grad school program and Patrick went above and beyond to ensure that it happened. I love my current flat and most definitely will return to Dexters in the future.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Dexters due to Jada Palmer, my agent. She’s gone above and beyond to be both responsive and to fix any issues I’ve faced in my new flat since I’ve recently moved in January. I’m so, so grateful to have such a good agent, especially since I’ve had a terrible experience in the past with my previous letting agency. I would definitely recommend Dexters and especially ask for Jada!
