TrustpilotDexters team are now first rate.
Dexters have managed our property for many years.Whilst there were issues over the last rental, this has been more than compensated by their new manager Christian Pengelly. He has personally been knowledgeable, proactive and extremely helpful. His team has come with him to now provide the best of service. I have no hesitation in recommending Dexters to anyone with property in Ealing.

TrustpilotDexters City of London
I was moved into a flat that developed a severe damp and mould problem after a couple of weeks. It turned out that there was a major leak coming from the property next door that already existed before I moved in. The place became really humid, mould patches appeared everywhere, and tiny hairy damp bugs crawled into my belongings, including my electronics, shoes and photo albums. An industrial dehumidifier was installed to dry the place out, which was deafening and made me sweat every night in my sleep. It was absolutely brutal, and would have brought many people to breaking point. I did not receive any support from the Property Management manager during any of this, and she always stuck up for the landlord! The property owner is the calibre of people Dexters chooses as its landlords, at least in London. Even if you find a place online you like, take a bit more time and choose a different agent!

TrustpilotIt gives me depression
UPDATE: Another month has passed but all they did is to sent another (the fifth if not the sixth) contractor to take the measurements again and again of the faulty heater. When will they have it fixed? I don’t know. Am I freezing to death? Almost. Did they ignored my other requests in the past month? Yes. I tried to have things fixed/replaced at my cost but according to Dexters that would need the landlord’s approval. And I’m never having that approval. So they won’t fix things for me and won’t allow me to fix things for myself. Wow. And thank you customer relationship team for spelling my name wrong. I know you don’t care about the tenants at all but you could at least pretend?ORIGINAL REVIEW:So I rent through Dexters South Kensington, everyone seemed nice but nothing is working. The flat is managed by Dexters.The many things on the inventory were missing on the first day. I tried to email them to update it. One month later, nothing was done about it and not a single person cared to reply my email. I also tried to call their management team but it was not helpful either.The flat was 'professionally cleaned' as agreed on the offer. The flat had a funky smell after the 'professional cleaning'. And the bathroom wall had many dark brown stains on it that I had to clean it myself. The wardrobe was filled with used unwashed towels and sheets (five large boxes of those), which was almost a biohazard. It was agreed on the offer that these things should be removed. After me emailing and calling them for two weeks, they finally agreed that I can throw those rubbish away. And, of course, I had to pay for the rubbish removal myself.One of the three heaters was broken when I moved in. So I contacted their maintenance team in early August, hoping it could be repaired before summer ends. Now, two months later, it's almost the end of October and I'm still waiting for the landlord's approval to have it repaired. Not to mention many other faulty items that are in desperate need of being repaired.With that being said, most of their staff do sound very nice and decent on the phone. But it's just that nothing is working. Everything in the flat is on the edge of falling apart if not already so. With all these struggles, I feel my life is also falling apart. After renting through them, all the struggles trying to have things repaired ended in nothing. I have no ways to ask for help. No matter who I contact: the management team or the maintenance team, nothing can be done. I don't know what's so difficult. And I pay £475 per week for a flat like this.

TrustpilotApartment destroyed under their management
My apartment has been in the family since 1988. It was given to Dexters a year ago on a full management contract, they had supposedly vetted the prospective tenant, the tenants partner assaulted the tenant the police kicked the door breaking the lock to get access, arrested the partner. The tenant also had a large dog in the apartment which I abd the Managing agents requested Dexters to ask the tenant to remove, the apartment carpet, walls and wood work were destroyed by the tenant, the tenant did not pay the council tax, water charges, electricity or tv license. After the flat was vacated by the tenant, dexters rented out the flat immediately without informing me of the damage to the flat then requested I pay £1500 for repairing the walls and woodwork and over £1900 for a new carpet to replace the carpet destroyed by the large dog.Avoid Dexters at all costs, they are a property management company that operates at a substandard level. Look elsewhere. They only have their own interests ate heart and do not care at all about the landlords interests.I've left messages the last 2 days but no call back, they have my number, making money is their primary aim, landlords interests do not feature. Its affected my health.

TrustpilotVery disappointed!
Very disappointed!It took them 33 days to tell me they are going to return part of my deposits. I emailed back said i will enter dispute process because the deposit claim is not reasonable, but they told me the time frame to dispute is within 10days of end of tenancy.:)Since i moved out i kept chasing for an answer but they delayed response till 33days later. And they claim they did professional cleaning to the flat, and they charge it to my deposit. But the truth is, i already booked professional end of tenancy cleaning service when i moved out and physically inspected the cleaning was done.I do not get why should I pay for a duplicated cleaning service. And why i should accept the outcome that their ignorance lead to missed the dispute time frame of 10 days.In a word, if you are looking for flat to rent, i highly recommend, do not use Dexters.

GoogleSold a property a couple of years ago through the Lee branch. Incredibly transactional.
Dealt with a man called Peter who whilst trying to source buyers had stated price wasn't the issue, but still asked to reduce the price to give the best chance.
Whilst refusing to do so, he also failed to grasp the point that dropping the price to sell the property at a loss wasn't an incentive to me. This showed a complete lack of financial sense.
After sourcing the buyer and going through the sale process - i had asked when they state fees why they state them excluding VAT. This is not specific to this estate agents but all estate agents from experience. Yet he completely failed to answer the question - just stating a percentage and not clarify VAT inclusion or otherwise is completely misleading and shows a level of dishonesty.
I also asked at a point what was needed after exchange if anything to which his response was "all we need is your money and we're done". Completely unprofessional. Will avoid in future.NegativeProfessionalism, Value

We are sorry to hear you were unhappy with the service you received two years ago and would have liked the opportunity to investigate your claims at the time. Nevertheless, you are correct it is common for estate agents to quote fees plus VAT and we sorry to hear that there was some confusion surrounding this. To your other point, the property was not reduced during it’s marketing, but had it been this would not have been completed without explicit instructions. Please feel free to email enquiries@peterjamesestates.co.uk to discuss further if you wish.

TrustpilotWould not recommend at all
Would not recommend at all! Typical agency, rude and better than anyone else. Got a rent reduction 3 months ago and they keep saying they are dealing with it and refunding the over payment. They didn’t and now blaming us! Direct debits bounced due to this and they think it has nothing to do with them. If this was the other way round and me not paying it would be a totally different story. I’m lucky I’m in a position to move money around but that is only the last few years.. back when I started renting I would be in trouble! Dexters think they are above anyone else and other peoples circumstances. They could not care less! I ask everyone not to use or move away from this company. Let’s think about how people starting out would be suffering right now.

Trustpilotbad experience throughout stay
I have moved out for one month but they still did not refund my deposit even if I have chased for 5 times!The response on repairment and maintainence request was super slow during my stay. It took 5 months for them to fix the blinds! I could not turn on lights during evenings because there was no blinds!And they arrange views with very short notice before my moving out date. Very bad experience. PLS give my deposit back ASAP when you read this comment, Dexters!

TrustpilotExcellent service.
I had a minor problem with my fridge and a major one with a blocked drain. I phoned Dexters and Donalina Gargrupe handled both problems for me quickly and effectively and with a friendly, polite manner.She kept me informed (the problems ranged over a week due to a miscommunication with a maintenance company) and was quick to chase up the company involved. A very impressive performance!

TrustpilotI spent a lot of time doing things that should have been avoided.
I spent a lot of time filling doing unnecessary things.Negatives:1. Spending time getting a guarantor and being rushed by Chloe of Putney branch Dexters to get the guarantor to fill out the form (which, they had to do twice, as the first form was under the suffix 'Miss' when it was for a man).Only to be eventually told that I dont need a guarantor. 2. Arriving 30minutes after check in time only to wait another 30 minutes, because they couldn't find the keys (it was in someone's desk... suprise, suprise...)3. Not having a professional clean done even though the inventory mentioned it was (very dusty, shower cubicle was very dirty.) - the oven was caked with burnt grease and there were many burnt trays/racks inside the oven that spent a good while to clean). The extractor fan was also not cleaned and not extracting properly, though inventory stated that it was working fully.)4. Faulty lights and a broken intercom on arrival.5. The previous tenants told me that Dexters tried to withhold some of their deposit for cleaning that had to be done (which, was never done in my personal opinion - the full deposit was returned eventually though)6. A lot missing on the inventory, I had to send photo's to the property management team.7. Felt more rushed signing a deal here than any other properties I was looking at.Positives:1. Chloe answered all of my questions where she could.2. Property management team fixed the lights and intercom relatively quickly and are pretty helpful.3. Good locations to choose from.
