No accountability

No accountability, sloppy & Rude. Experience over the years with Savills. When looking to buy, they develop an opinion of you when you walk through the door. Be sure to wear a suit and stick a spoon in your mouth. When viewing a property make sure you can work around their agenda and remind them to bring the keys. The letting experience is horrendous. We have watched people come and go here. Noone is inducted with the correct information, they just leave people to it expecting other residents to help out. If you complain you are seen as a major irritation. How can anyone stay in business with this attitude! Their staff need training from top to bottom. Complaints Team, please do not recommend I contact you. We have spoken in the past, your complaints procedure is ineffective. In itself encourages bad behaviour from top to bottom of the organisation.

Horrendous Service

Terrible service - we have moved into a flat managed by Savills, and we have had nothing but headaches during the entire process. Firstly, the referencing process is terrible, we ended up missing our move in date by a week, but were told they could not change the date we started paying rent from to reflect this, despite none of the delays being our fault. They even asked me for my birth certificate the night before we about to make a 6 hour drive to move in - AFTER we had paid the deposit and first months rent, why not ask for this before hand?? So we didn't know if we were able to collect the keys or not the next day - causing much stress after we had already packed up our house. We arrived on a Saturday, and had to get the keys from a security guard - which was fine however despite being told multiple times we would be emailed a Welcome Pack, we did not receive this until 24 hours after moving into the property, meaning we had no idea how to turn on essentials such as heating and hot water as this was not straightforward. We also were not able to access the meter reading at all to setup our energy accounts. To sum up, service is horrendous, painfully slow and you will be waiting hours if not days for a response, and every time you call to chase they say someone will get back to you that day, but they never do. Savills have caused us a great amount of stress and difficulty during our entire moving process.

Issues with Deposit Return

The experience was smooth until it came time to return the deposit. Currently, I am waiting for a substantial deposit to be refunded. Unfortunately, the original account used for the deposit has been closed, and they are refusing to return the funds. I have been advised to seek legal assistance to obtain permission for the deposit to be transferred to another account, which will incur additional costs for me. From my perspective, it appears that they are deliberately trying to retain the deposit.

Terrible estate agent who rather wait until tomorrow when being told that there is potential smoke, water leakage and lack of hot water in the building for many residents. Imagine being told these things from a resident and then communicate that they need to wait until tomorrow?! What is even the point of an out of hours line then?! Before that they were not able to fix a door and thank good that nobody needed an ambulance ik case of emergency because that would really make the newspapers. I am not even sure where you would find such an useless bunch of people in this day and age. Being paid to do a job that they can not even do properly and one can not bother visit the estate via a short tube ride?

AWFUL ESTATE AGENCY, POOR SERVICE, BAD FOR TENANTS AND LANDLORDS.

Have rented from a number of different landlords, agency's, and reps over the years. This was by far the worst experience I have had. Savills were awful from start to finish, from the effort they actually put in to sell the property on the landlords behalf, to how to they dealt with requests or reports of issues throughout the tenancy or lastly how they have dealt with the ending of the tenancy. All of the staff members are rude and treat you with little respect. There have been lies and manipulation from them to ensure they can get the most out of every transaction. They have also been incredibly slow to return the deposit, 7 weeks and still no sign, when we have enquired about this we have been treated as if we are rude to ask where our money is. AWFUL ESTATE AGENCY, POOR SERVICE, BAD FOR TENANTS AND LANDLORDS.

Helpful and professional

My experience with Savills was very positive and everything went well. I was in contact with Jess Exley, who was very helpful, supportive and answered all my questions. My case was a bit difficult, as I was about to move to the UK from abroad and was not familiar with the processes. She explained everything in detail and was responding to me quickly and in a professional manner. I felt that I can trust her and this made the moving out process smoother for me. I definitely recommend her!

Great support from Savills Stow

We have recently exchanged on a property through Savills, Stow and have had the most amazing support from Kay and the team. Responses have been thoughtful, practical and prompt at every stage. This has really helped take the stress out of moving - thanks so much!

Ellis

I have been an extremely lucky person to have had Ellis at the knutsford office helping me through a very stressful time with our purchase of 7 Millbank Close she has always and still is pleasant and very informative every time I have spoken to her.. moving house is very stressful and it certainly has for us as we have lived in our present house 50 years but Ellis always put my mind at rest as our sale had lots of delays. So thank you Ellis your a star. Ann vickers

We had an unfortunate situation with a person who was renting our flat. All looked bleak and costly to us. However dealing with Philip Theodorou from Savills helped greatly to manage the situation and reduce our costs and have a better conclusion with this challenging situation.

Excellent experience

We were lucky to find a great property marketed by Savills. I would like to thank Ms. Yato Konde in particular for making our move in a speedy process. She has been so helpful and she promptly provided all the support that we needed to settle in.

Millie was great - found us a beautiful home that matched our needs perfectly, then worked with the seller to get the price where we needed it to be. She was knowledgable about the area and very responsive whenever we had a question. Great job Millie!

We don’t exist

As property Management at the courtyard Brighton they are 1/5. The cleaner has gone awol as I have people looking for them. No wonder they are billion pound company. I put them on par with clarion housing. Non existent. Long as dough hits there accounts they don’t care.

Michelle at Savills handled our house sale from start to finish. Michelle was backed up by Rick and Susanna in the office with Roo’s initial visit and advice a great start to the whole process. With an initial visit to familiarise themselves with the Property Michelle and Rick generated a steady stream of viewings. We had in mind a 3 year project to sell our house. From being marketed initially to serious offer was less than 3 months!! In our previous experience estate agents lose interest once the house is under offer. Michelle cajoled, communicated with solicitors, buyers and other estate agents in a methodical, professional and cheerful way. She kept us informed at every step and provided a calm presence when the inevitable hiccoughs happened. She played a massive role in getting us over the line and was instrumental in enabling us to get our dream home. We cannot praise her and the rest of the Savills team enough. An outstanding estate agent experience. Charles and Joanne.

We are very impresed with the service we received from the Savills Lincoln team - and specifically from Rupert (Roo) Fisher in the sale of our property. Having obtained valuations of our property from several agents it was an easy decision to choose Savills to market our property. This decision was primarily based on our interaction with Roo Fisher and how his professional manner inspired our confidence in him and Savills as an organisation that he represented. We really appreciated the fact that Roo was our key contact throughout the process. He was readily available at all times, communicated well and clearly took personal responsibility for the sale. He was comsistemtly professional, yet friendly, in his approach to the sale. Due to circumstances beyond Savills control, the sale was rather protracted. Nonetheless we had regular personal updates from Roo and advice about new marketing strategies and help in facilitating barriers to the sale. We greatly appreciated the clarity and responsiveness of communication from the entire Savills Lincoln team at all times - both by phone and by emai. Phone calls/answerphone messages were nearly always followed up by a confirmation email. What really impressed us was the fact that the entire Savills Lincoln team seemed to really know about us the property and our personal circumstances, even through we did not have the opportunity to meet them all in person, and that they genuinely had a real interest and concern in acting on our behalf. The impression we gained of how the Savills team in Lincoln function is that of a very professional, courteous, harmonious and cohesive team. They take real pride in their work and, while the sale of a house is a business transaction, they made it a very positive interactive experience for us as clients. Well done to the entire Savills Lincoln team!

Savills' customers satisfied

Savills have been very supportive in managing the sale of our property, and particularly in keeping the chain of sales in place with all of us moving forward. Their marketing advice was first-rate and promotional literature was produced rapidly and to an excellent standard. They arranged and supported an ambitious programme of viewings which resulted quickly in a successful sale. In the ensuing pre-contract period we have valued highly their continued expert advice. They have provided a comprehensive service which we would recommend highly.

Zero stars from me.

I can’t give zero stars unfortunately. Savills valued our house at £450000 but three other agents valued at £600000!!. They said they’d provide a report but we heard nothing. Ours is a 4 bed house and they’d just sold a 2 bed house nearby for £425000. Appalling service.

TRASH AGENCY

I highly do not recommend taking this agency for your rental, because:1/ Some of their workers are VERY EXTREMELY RUDE and take their sweetest time to reply to mails.2/ They will give you the STUPIDEST excuses that they cannot reach the landlords.3/ They will keep you without a precise response.4/ They will not allow you to break your contract.
