first class property management

Natasha is a very experienced operator who has looked after our flat diligently for many years, even before dexters. she and her team in wapping take problems away from us, which is ideal, and if they need to consult us, they normally have a suggested solution to the issues that crop up. equally they broker new rental agreements efficiently and treat tenants fairly

The Most Unprofessional Property Management.

If we could give 0 stars we would. Dexters have been absolutely awful and by far the least professional estate agent we have come across in numerous rentings in London. A combination between a high senior manager at a local restaurant chain and Dexters as a property agent, should have made for a great combination of professionalism and attention to detail. Instead Dexters have shown the processes and procedures in property management are certainly there to be broken by them (repeatedly over and over again). The highly professional executive only seems quick and more importantly cheap fixes meaning any issues are reoccuring as they do not get resolved first time. Dexters have a designated Maintenance e-mail within their property management team which we were advised we should use. We contacted them on the Monday and by the Friday, there was still no further response. We contacted Charlie, the Property Management Director to be told we were lucky to have reached him and blamed us for not doing more in contacting them. However did confirm receipt of the email but no reply made. A garage confirmed to be in perfect order on moving in had a leaky roof discovered 2 weeks after moving in creating execssive damp then mould inside. The roof was fixed but nothing was done inside to help alleviate the dampness. We were eventually told by Charlie to store our items inside the flat as nothing more would be done to assist us having already thrown away items with mould on. Items were moved inside and cleaned into designated storage locations including a built in wardrobe. Due to issues later confirmed to be dampness within the existing external walls which were located immediately behind the wardrobe and other areas of the flat, mould came and we lost significantly more items due to our belongings being covered in thick mould, including professional photos our two year old daughter. We contacted Dexters once again but despite it being a "cheap fix" previously, Dexters issued for a surveyor to come and check the issues. Costly improvements (£1500) were recommended with the report stating clearly it was an issue beyond tenants control. Numerous senior managerss and a Director blamed this issue on us as tenants for not cleaning behind a wooden built in wardrobe onto an external wall. Not sure how they believe this to be possible? GDPR rules have been continously abused with our personal contact details being shared with numerous contractors without being aware of such matters and contract rules being broken on numerous occasions. Lindsey, The Senior Property Management Manager sent an identical email to both ourselves and to the new tenants with the information being factually wrong for both parties. Again, showing that they really do not have a professional working behaviour.We finally dealt with Adam who agreed that there were mould issues as a result of the property/ maintenance. Adam informed me he would call me back once be had spoken to the landlord regarding these issues that finally admitted their were faults within the property from his own check. This was after having breathed mould in areas of the property that could not be cleaned (only one of two solutions/ support provided - the other being opening windows for a built in wardrobe) for over 3 months with a 2 year old daughter too. After 3 weeks since Adam's initial contact to say he would contact us again after going back to the landlord again as he had not done so personally, still no response. We handed our keys back yesterday but no process to confirm receipt of collection or response regarding the check-out.Overall, do not trust Dexters with maintaining your property as a landlord as slow to action any agreed jobs. As a tenant, they break any procedure they feel like for their own benefit. Their service is appalling and the suits may look smart and professional but their standards level of service are beyond the poorest we have encountered in 5 rental properties.

The Dexter team at Cricklewood have provided us with a fabulous service in all the dealings we have had with them from start through to sale. The communication between us and the team has always been clear, relevant and simple. It doesn’t matter if the lead on your sale is not available, everyone has a grasp of the detail, are only too happy to help or get back to us. The office is impressively headed up by Neela who has given great advice along the journey and we have worked with Jamil, Samara & Nathalia really well.

I’ve had the pleasure of dealing with Leighton Hanson at Dexters and have found them to be so efficient and professional with such great communication and often doing that little that little bit extra to try and get issues resolved. The experience really has made me feel confident that our property and tenants are in good hands.Thank you Leighton!

Shout out to Jessica Carson…

Shout out to Jessica Carson for her great help this past week. Jess is an an excellent communicator and was a pleasure to deal with from start to finish, smoothly and quickly negotiating a rent increase acceptable both to myself (landlord) and the tenant on my north London flat. And thanks for the maths lesson too. Hopefully I now know the difference between £1,250 and £12,250.....

Frankie was brilliant and helped us greatly with the daunting task of finding a great flat in our price range as they were very quickly snapped up by other renters. He kept us in the loop with what was available and helped us with everything we needed. I will be definitely be going to Dexters if we are looking for a place to rent in the future.

Frankie was extremely helpful and found us a lovely flat that we can't wait to move into! His communication was great, responding to our queries really quickly, always keeping us updated and when showing us around the flats he provided all the information we could ask for. Everything was done professionally and swiftly and it took all of the stress out of flat hunting. Thanks so much!

A Skilled Dexter’s Agent

I worked with Mohammed Amin on our recent lease renewal and replacement contract. Mohammed was extremely helpful and prompt in our negotiations; he was empathetic and patiently explained the contract details. Simultaneously, he coordinated with the landlord with extreme care, showcasing his leadership skills. Additionally, Mohammed provided us with multiple solutions that suit both the tenant and landlord.

Thanks to Zendeca

So far our experience of renting through Dexters has been straightforward and relatively easy. Zendeca from the Battersea branch went above and beyond to get us a viewing of our perfect property, despite it being her day off and viewings having already been completed. She worked hard to get to know us so we could make the best offer to the landlords, and was responsive and kept us updated throughout the whole process. Zendeca was also understanding of our requirements and requests, and arranged some flexibility for us where possible. We love our flat and we're very grateful to Zendeca and the Dexters Battersea team for making it possible.

Hollie, Jason, Matt and Becky from the sales team worked tirelessly over the past months to bring the sale of our property to a close, despite experiencing some setbacks and the process being dragged on longer than we wished (no fault of Dexters). We were able to leverage on Jason’s experience and deep knowledge of the market for this transaction, and Hollie’s engaging and approachable work style had made the process smooth and less stressful. Matt from the sales support team was particularly diligent and efficient in following up with various parties involved to move the deal closer to the goalpost. We were very glad to have them supporting us in this sales journey.

Bailey has been an absolute star

Bailey has been an absolute star. As a tenant it is daunting to give a call to the estate agents and report or ask for something. However that has not been the case since Bailey has been managing our property where we are renting in. She is always happy to help and support tenants.

We recently moved into our apartment. Unfortunately the apartment had issues but the maintenance team were fantastic. I really appreciate how Petros helped me resolved every issue, he walked me through it and checked that everything was completed. The Dexter’s management team are so supportive and helpful. Issues were quickly resolved.

Great services and very professional

We recently moved into our new rental house with help from Ashley at Dexters Battersea. Ashley has been super helpful throughout the whole rental process. Very professional, effective, thoughtful, and perfect in following up and giving updates. We are very impressed with the service that Ashley provided. We were dealing with another Real Estate company when looking for a rental house in the same area, and we were so glad that we went with Dexters but not the other company which happened to carry the same house we rented through Dexters!

Excellent communications

Donalina has been instrumental in keeping me updated with an issue I reported around a water leak in a flat above mine. She always called me and for me that’s the best thing about her. So many times I engage with agents who say they’ll call back and it never happens. Not the case with Donalina. Very good 👍🏽.

Exemplary Service - Highly Recommend

The service we have received from Dexter's has been excellent throughout. The constant contact with the sales team is so reassuring - which was not the case with other estate agents. Elli was such an incredible help when it came to trying to complete our deal - offering expert advice, while listening and understanding all the concerns we had. Her support was invaluable during what was a very stressful time.I would definitely recommend Dexter's to anyone looking to sell their property in the city.

Dexters Bloomsbury was the worst

Dexters Bloomsbury was the worst nightmare one could imagine. The house was disgusting and dirty and they have failed to professionally clean it for 3 days. They repeatedly breached the contract by failing to provide a clean house and free of other people stuff. On top of that, the previous tenants had Covid and still they did not care about cleaning it. Honestly, if you want to live in a decent place and deal with reasonable people I strongly advise you not to use this letting agency

Very unprofessional experience

Very unprofessional experience with Dexters Acton. Total waste of time!I've just relocated to London, and it's the first letting agency we've ever worked with. At first, everything was fine...until we've successfully placed our holding deposit and finished our reference checks. The referencing agent informed us to communicate with our letting agent, Lara-Rose Elsi. So we called and emailed her for a status update. However, we haven't got any replies since then - not even from her colleagues - NO FOLLOW-UPS AT ALL! After one week or two, another Dexters agent got back to me. He said Lara was not around (again!), and the landlord decided not to rent us the property one week before (what?). We were in total shock. Why didn't they tell me right away? Why didn't they have any official or written confirmation? They simply left me there waiting and wasting my time! I could have started looking for other properties much earlier if they told me the landlord had decided to pull out!I don't understand why a "professional" letting agency can operate like this. It's okay for an agent not feeling well or takes a week off - it's totally fine and I understand that - I just don't see why they have poor communication, and they simply don't have other staff members to follow up with my case when the original agent is not available. Advice: Stay away from this unprofessional agency!
