GoogleWe had a fantastic experience working with Ridwana at Felicity J. Lord during our search for a home in Hackney.
From the beginning, she really listened to what we were looking for, i.e., a house in a very specific part of Hackney, with particular requirements around size and type, and was consistently proactive in helping us navigate the search. She was also very good at giving us a realistic sense of what was happening in the local market, including how quickly things were moving and what buyers and sellers were expecting at different points.
One thing we particularly appreciated was how proactive she was about viewings. When something suitable came onto the market, she would often make sure we had the opportunity to see it very early.
There was one property in particular that we had mentioned we were very interested in, even though it wasn't available to view at the time. Months later, as soon as it became available, Ridwana remembered us and reached out before we had even spotted it ourselves. That diligence and follow-through made a real difference, we were able to view it quickly, make a decision and move forward on a house we really liked.
She also kept us well updated throughout the negotiations with the sellers and did a great job communicating between both sides and helping move things forward.
Really grateful for Ridwana's proactiveness, responsiveness and knowledge of the Hackney market. We'd happily recommend working with her.

GoogleIf we could give Charlie 10 stars, we absolutely would! Selling our flat turned into an incredibly stressful 6-month rollercoaster,largely due to a very difficult buyer's solicitor but Charlie was our absolute rock through it all. He was relentless in pushing the buyer's side, keeping the pressure on, and making sure our sale actually crossed the finish line.
Beyond just doing his job brilliantly, his emotional support was what truly saved us. Charlie was always available to talk whenever we needed him, no matter how panicked or stressed we were. He consistently reassured us and made us feel like we were never alone in this complex process. We honestly could not have coped with the extreme stress of this move without him in our corner.
If you want an estate agent who genuinely cares, fights for your sale, and keeps you sane when things get tough, Charlie is exactly who you need. We cannot recommend him highly enough!
We are so ready to start our new chapter in our new home.
Thank you for making it happen and for everything, Charlie!

GoogleCharlie Saville was brilliant to work with to sell our flat. He was quick to respond to all enquiries from us and the buyer and helped move things along quicker with the solicitors when it was needed. He made it quick and easy to list the flat online and organised lots of viewings. He is really friendly and professional, and definitely helped reduce the stress of moving! We would 100% recommend him and Felicity J. Lord to anyone looking to sell a property in Hackney. We've since recommended him to a neighbour looking to sell their flat as the service was fantastic and he knows the area/building well. Thank you Charlie!

GoogleCharlie Saville is truly the cream of the crop when it comes to estate agents. We met with three estate agencies but FJL stood out because of Charlie. No pitch or pressure - which made our decision easy.
True to his name like Savile Row craftsmanship, he’s genuinely crème de la crème. From start to finish, he was attentive, respectful, and professional. Quick to apologise for anything outside his control.
I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

GoogleCharlie and the Hackney Team at Felicity J Lord are the gold standard when it comes to residential property sales. We initially used another local agency who were also handling our purchase. They were a royal let down with both the purchase and the sale.
We ultimately switched to FJL and the difference was like night and day. Even the photographs of our property were just better - FJL were the better choice.
The sale of our 2-bed flat in Clapton came with several twists and turns due to the Building Safety Act 2022, as well as the age/construction of the high-rise. But the team navigated this with such professionalism and care.
Charlie is transparent, friendly, communicates well and is extremely patient. While the wider team - Ahmed, Ridwana, all of them are just a pleasure to deal with. Not sleazy agents at all. Absolutely the best we've dealt with. Thanks so much!

GoogleMy partner and I have just exchanged on a very complex and stressful flat purchase in the Hackney Marshes area, which took a grand total of a year! We could not have done it without the amazing support offered by Charlie Saville from Felicity J Lord. He was so genuinely kind, supportive, hard working, professional and honest, and we are so grateful to him for going above and beyond in helping us get our dream home over the line. Because of his incredible support, we will no doubt be using Felicity J Lord to sell our property later down the line. Thank you so much Charlie.

He found a property that was perfect for us and trusted our interest in it, despite us still needing to sell our other property - always keeping us in the loop.
He continued to go above and beyond to get the purchase to completion.
He is personable, considerate, understanding and forthcoming. Our experience with him is unlike any other estate agent, he goes the extra mile with all parts of the process from the solicitor to the seller to us as the buyers. We cannot thank him enough for all his hard work and communication.

GoogleWe had an outstanding experience with Lenny from Felicity J Lord. He took the time to carefully listen to our criteria (which was very specific) and managed to find our dream home.
Buying a property is such a personal moment in life, you need someone who is highly responsive, professional and emotionally intuitive to navigate the process - qualities Lenny has in abundance.
Having been searching for over 6 months, and therefore having exposure to many, many agents, I can confidently say Lenny is one of the best in the business - he comes with my highest recommendation!

GoogleLiaising with Lenny from FJ Lord, who was managing my house sale, has been a really good experience.
I especially appreciated the regular communication from Lenny, (and his colleague), about booking in viewings, how things were going from their point of view and any feedback from viewings. Lenny has been unfailingly polite, professional and honest about both the positive and any negative aspects of the progression of the sale and I felt throughout that I had a true picture of how things were going.
I would recommend Lenny as an estate agent without reservation.

To be honest in the end she had done their job for them 100x over. Ellesse worked over the weekend and over her usual hours to help us out and we always felt she was in our corner for both us and the landlord.

Fortunately the sale went through. It was all down to the hard work and commitment from our agent Charlie. So a BIG thank you and 5 stars
