Central Estate Agents Walthamstow reviews

★★★★★ 5/5

Central Estate Agents truly are made up of great, responsible, respectful people. Manaan was at the heart of my work and the key to its success, as I contacted them when lockdown eased, which also meant new distancing measures were in place. Out of all the leading competitors in this market, Manaan brought me the best deal whilst taking care of everyone involved. With all confidence, and from all former experiences, I have the privilege of saying there isn't be a better person to invest in. Thank you so much Manaan for your support and kindness. Thank you Central. NMPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Letting department was very efficient when my flat sale fell through and had to rent it out again. Matt had the documents prepared in a day and Manaan and the team found me a new tenant in less two weeks. He kept me informed throughout and is always very polite and easy to work with.

Thanks to Katie, Rich, Mikhael, Neil and the rest of the Central team for their support through what is inevitably a stressful process (selling). After promptly putting my property on the market, I must have had about 30 viewings by the first weekend, ultimately resulting in a sale. Completing on Monday, so would highly recommend Central to anyone looking to sell!

Although my tenancy which was overseen by Central ended six years ago, I had need to contact them regarding it. I was put through to Nancy, one of the property managers, who was incredibly helpful, friendly and understanding of my queries. My enquiry was dealt with quickly and professionally and with a level of customer service that regrettably is far too infrequent these days! Thank you to Nancy and Central Estates.

As a first time buyer I have generally had a good experience with all the main estate agents in Walthamstow, but Central were by far the best at communicating suitable properties and providing a personalised experience. Even during the incredibly busy period of the stamp duty holiday. Thanks so much to Rich, Shah and the sales team for guiding me through the market during brexit, covid and finally the stamp duty holiday. We got there in the end!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

I have been thinking about selling my property for over a decade. I had several talks with different agents and decided on Central estates as they were transparent from the start. Experience goes a long way. Central estates is one of the …

Submitted my offer for property a to property b, claimed I never showed up to viewing for property a despite the fact I was there and spoke with them. Strange and lost me out on a nice home!

We are first time landlords and have used Central to rent and manage our property. The whole team, especially Manaan and Martyne have been wonderful. Manaan was able to rent (and re-rent) our property very quickly ensuring no gaps in tenancies. Martyne is very knowledgeable and responsive and has made our first experience of being a landlord hassle free. We would highly recommend the whole Central team we have worked with.

The most professional and honest estate agents I dealt with during my whole search. Paige was extremely helpful, as well as a number of other people we worked with. We didn’t end up buying a house through Central but I wanted to leave a review nonetheless because they were so good. Thank you very much.

I appointed Central Estates in Walthamstow to let my property and found their team to be exceptionally professional and responsive. Nancy, in particular, consistently provided timely support throughout the tenancy and efficiently managed several issues that arose after my tenants vacated.

Nancy Markou from Central Estates has been amazingly helpful since she became the property manager of the house we are renting. She is so lovely to speak to and very easy and efficient to deal with. She will respond straight away to emails which is very important to us and is great for getting things done ASAP. I highly recommend dealing with her if you contact Central Estates about rental properties.

Looking locally for an estate agent to evaluate my property to sell , I picked 3 local agents and asked each for a valuation. Only two actually turned up , and only one impressed me enough with his Proffesionalism, knowledge of the market friendly deminour. So I choose Central Estate Agents in Walthamstow and never looked back. Richard ,Ella, Katie and Harry all worked together from the beginning to completion of sale. Every query , doubt and email i sent was answered promptly and professionally which was a load off my mind seeing as I was conducting the sale from Italy. What more can I say ... Just a big thanks to Central and the team... 5 star , sell your house with confidence,and at competitive cost.

Can't thank Rich, especially but also Dean, Katie and the rest of the team at Central enough for their help with our recent move. We wouldn't have found our home without Rich and we are really thankful for that. As a buyer they are really good at listening to your needs and finding you something great. We would without hesitation use them to sell if we ever move (which hopefully, we won't anytime soon!)PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

I sold my flat through Central and would recommend them, they were really quick to get lots of people in for viewings and gave honest feedback. Rich was always available to chat - even about the properties that I was viewing to buy with other agents and I absolutely value his opinion. I felt the progression team weren't as strong, I didn't feel they kept me in the loop and they rarely returned my calls or emails unless pushed. However Rich made this experience positive overall as I feel he went over and above in terms of getting my sale through and making himself available when I needed him. Definitely the best team in E17!

My brother and I had to sell our deceased Mother’s house in a very competitive market.Our main contact was Rich Maher,who was so good and passionate about his job that he made it his personal mission to ensure we completed the sale, especially after we had been let down by two perspective buyers at the twelfth hour.Rich went above and beyond with his sheer persistence and drive and was always available for advice.I highly recommended Rich and the team and thanks again for sealing the deal.

From viewings to buying a house, the service we received was very efficient and professional. They really know their clients and try to facilitate this difficult process. A massive thank you to Rich without whose endless hard work we would not have been able to find somewhere which suits us so well. Only slight blip was the house being listed on websites as for sale for about 4 days after our offer had been accepted, but Central were clear that this was a mistake and no competing bids were accepted. Would definitely recommend dealing with them

The whole team were really amazing at central. I dealt with Rich mostly who often took phone calls from me when I needed advice on the property. And all the teamwere really respectful when they came to do viewings. We had a NIGHTMARE landlord to say the least and they all really went out of their way to help us deal with it in the best way possible. We had initially rented the property through another estate agents who were of no use to us, ignoring our emails etc. The property was it was just for sale with Central so we never paid them any fee or expected much from them but they really helped us vacate the property as smoothly as possible

We recently sold our flat through Central - a 10-month process which was entirely down to problems with our chain above, and Central were excellent throughout (especially in comparison to other agents involved in the chain). Their initial estimate of what to market the property for was pretty spot on, and we achieved close to asking price from three separate offers in the end, after lots of viewings and interest. When things turned difficult with the chain above us, Central were on hand to offer creative solutions that might help, and showed willing to go above and beyond to make it all happen - even though it shouldn't have fallen to them to fix the onward chain. Special thanks to Dean who probably earned his commission three times over from all the extra advice and counselling! Would have no hesitation recommending to others looking to sell in Walthamstow.

Central were amazing, Richard Maher in particular went above and beyond to get a very lengthy sale completed. It was a very problematic sale and Richard was always available to offer advice, calm nerves and deal with every eventuality. He made every effort to get the sale through and provided contacts and tradespeople when needed, speaking to solicitors, buyers, freeholders, etc and negotiating a way out of some very difficult situations. His professionalism was exemplary and I simply couldn't have done it without him.

James was my first point of contact bit everyone jn the team was helpful in my house sale. A huge shout out to Katie, the sale progresser, for her constant diligence to the case as it was a straightforward sale. Katie was a perfect point of contact between buyer and seller.

I had a deeply frustrating experience with Central Estates while trying to sell and buy a home. From the start, they misrepresented the situation, Katie, who managed the entire process, lied about the seller having an offer when there were none. This kind of dishonesty is incredibly unprofessional and caused unnecessary stress throughout the transaction. Not only did they fail to communicate updates, but they also dragged out the process for far longer than needed. I felt completely in the dark at times and had to chase them for information. Based on my experience, I would strongly advise against using Central Estates for any property transactions. Their lack of transparency and professionalism is unacceptable.

It was my first time renting a property, thank you to central estate walthamstow. My agent Manaan Rafiq made the process very smooth, he was there every step of the way and very prompt with his responses. I would definitely recommend.
