Navigating the complex auction process with ease, thanks to Foxton and their incredible team

I recently had the pleasure of working with Foxton's Auction desk to purchase my first home, and I can confidently say that the experience was a positive one. I especially want to give a shoutout to Ahmed Ali, the Auction Broker who provided exceptional support and guidance throughout the entire process. Ahmed was always available to answer any questions I had, and he took the time to explain each step in a way that was easy for me to understand. Thanks to his help, I was able to successfully navigate the complex and often confusing auction process with ease.Also, in addition to the auction desk, i had very positive experience also from the viewing process with Xavier (Fulham) who gave us a lot of details about the history of the Imperial Wharf developement that he knows very well and this was very helpful for us to decide. Overall, I highly recommend Foxton including their new Auction desk service for anyone looking to purchase a property through an auction. Thank you again to Ahmed, Xavier and the rest of the Foxton team for their professionalism and dedication!

Good experience

First, I met with Mr. Tom Kennard, who was calm and confident. Then I met his team member, Amelia, who was responsible for the sale of my property. She worked with the solicitors on both sides and impressed me with her professionalism and enthusiasm. She guided me step by step on how to solve problems. Concerning the Freehold issue and the changing of the Freeholder, I had to paid the new management agent £480 to speed up the sale process. While expecting to have the 'pack' completed within ten days, it took the management more than seven months. In frustration, I gave up. Luckily, it was Amelia who helped me to deal with the new management. In the end, we succeeded.My thanks to Amelia and Mr Kennard.

Brilliant customer service

I have had to renew my tenancy agreement and engaged with a representative named Ummey Khan. Ummey was very polite and understanding. She communicated in a calm and polite manner which made the whole process much less stressful. I would like to say a huge thank you to Ummey for her assistance and keep up the great work she does. She is a credit to Foxtons for sure.

Foxtons in East London took over my…

Foxtons in East London took over my house sale from another agent I became very unhappy and dissatisfied with, so much so I spoke to the manager of the other agency that they seemed to give up marketing my property.I wish I had gone with Foxtons from the start, Bilal (Billy) and his team took over immediately and I had so many viewings and offers, Billy delivered on everything he said he would, especially after the experience I had with the other agents, he organised, liaised and coordinated everything, he and his team were faultlessly instrumental in finding me a fantastic committed buyer at a price that maximised the difficult circumstances of the market through several rate rises. Through mortgage approval, exchange and completion he kept everything progressing as quickly and smoothly as possible. There were problems, he and his team and their recommended solicitor dealt with everything in a consummately professional, expert manner. I can fully recommend Foxtons and from my experience especially the team at the East London branch.

Avoid Foxtons Short Lets

I would strongly advise against going through Foxtons for short lets.Foxtons’ short let offering claims to check all the boxes, “bring your suitcase and we’ll provide the rest,” “fully furnished to a high standard,” “travel light, all you need to purchase are the consumables,” etc. The agent I worked with to find my flat was also extremely helpful and efficient.Upon arrival, I was very disappointed to find that the property’s condition and level of furnishing were far from ready for move in. The flat lacked many basic items, appliances and fixtures were broken, the mobile broadband was slow and tapped out after two weeks, and the general condition of the flat was poor and not well maintained. In addition to the issues at move in, several substantive maintenance issues arose during my tenancy and the property manager was extremely unresponsive and avoidant. Many of the maintenance issues were never resolved, I ended up having to buy the basic items missing from the flat out of pocket, and I never got working internet.The antics continued during move out. Foxtons included professional cleaning as a required check out task, costing £350. The check-out report included multiple incorrect or misleading claims about damage to the flat and missing items that the landlord used to file unfounded claims for full deduction of my security deposit, which I had to take through a formal dispute process to have returned.Friends who also had a short let through Foxtons had the same experience, so I know this was not an isolated issue. It’s clear that at least the short-let strategy at Foxtons is to misrepresent properties to get tenant locked in, then underdeliver, evade, and claw back as much money as possible at the end. If you rent with Foxtons, please be wary of these tactics before you sign a lease.

Sellers avoid using Foxton's to sell your property

As a buyer I've tried to view a number of properties with Foxtons, I've had 2 viewings but tried to have numerous other viewings, and the agent's behaviour is poor. Not sending you the address or sending you the wrong address. Not knowing answers to my questions as a buyer about service charges and ground rents. Trying to force me to see properties that clearly don't fit my needs. Overall it's just poor communication and service, as a seller avoid Foxton's, you want an estate agent that will be polite to your buyers and provide answers to their questions, if you have a property with them and it isn't selling it's a combination of overvaluation and poor customer service with buyers.

Very poor experience; recommend Iuliana

I had a poor experience with Foxton's - the first property manager completely mishandled things (issues with hot water not resolved for 8 months during winter, in direct violation of my rights as a tenant, incorrectly stating things were fixed). During showings of the flat I was in, at least one letting agent left the flat without locking it properly. However, Iuliana is professional and effective. She is responsive and would try to get things resolved in a timely manner; she always checked in with any discrepancies (i.e. if I made an early rent payment unexpectedly). Will never rent through Foxton's as a tenant again.

Shadane was amazing

Shadane was amazing, from the first call we explained what we were looking for and he matched properties that were just perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Within the first day of viewings we found our perfect property and we’re able to put an offer in straight away and secure the flat. We were looking for 6months through Zoopla but we decided to sign up to Foxtons and Shadane went out of his way, to find us property. He drove from south London to east London to help us with viewings, when he could have just easily handed our case to a closer branch. The service and professionalism from him was 5 stars. If you get lucky to be matched with Shadane be sure he will not disappoint.

Exceptional Service - Season Cheung

Season is the most responsible and professional agent I have come across. He handled my very unusual case diligently, always with very careful considerations and great suggestions. He is also very patient. He took the initiative to liaise between many different parties to ease my concerns. He is also very good at problem solving. The service Season provided was exceptional, I would recommend him to everyone.

Sam Toufique - Top Agent!

Sam Toufique was a great help in assisting during my rental search in SW London. Whilst we weren't able to find the right place for us through Foxton's, Sam and his colleagues were able to consistently provide top quality properties for viewings (even at short notice) whilst considering our needs and requests. We were a fairly tricky search with unique criteria but Sam's patience and constant efforts to find a suitable property was much appreciated.

Avoid ..you have been warned

Over a 3 year tenancy paying £4K pm Foxtons repeatedly ignored serious maintenance issues with tree branches scraping the roof and gutters broken and overflowing. Ordinary maintenance issues always required two visits from their chosen artisan …poor landlord paying for both of course . After 2 years and 11 months they finally registered our deposit ! Booked an exit clean on Foxtons own site at £650 and paid by credit card inc vat …and now Foxtons are showing an invoice on their website booked by their agent for £854. Got all the evidence date and time stamped. Bet they play games with the deposit. You are gamed . If Foxtons are the agent then avoid the house . Simple as that

Brilliant Service

Very quick, communicative ans efficient service. Foxton were very good and getting back to me after just 24 hours of placing my offer. Sherry was the agent that helped me with the process and she was a star. She made sure to explain the entire process to me and helped me with any extra guidance and information I needed. Would definitely recommend using Foxton specifically using Shelly as an agent for any future tenants.

Mohsen Ojany and Beatrice Rooney were really good. They were very professional and helpful throughout. They advised me well about the price and were responsive and understanding through a complicated sale process. I felt well looked after and will highly recommend them. Unlike what people generally think about estate agents I felt the whole process was honest and they worked hard to achieve a good deal for both me and the buyer.

Angelina - Best in the Business!

In what has been an extremely stressful and almost unprecedented time in the rental market (the demand is high and the supply is just not there!) Angelina made Alex's and my experience that much less stressful! As soon as anything came through the door that fit our criteria (prior to hitting the market) she was straight on the phone to us and getting us the first viewing possible (including personally driving us around half of London to find us exactly what we were looking for!) .She's fiercely ambitious in getting the best deal for her client and ensuring time remains of the essence to get that offer in and closed! She is assertive, attentive and honestly just 'on it' in every way that you could possibly want when trying to find your next home. Her professionalism and client service is unparalleled by anyone else we've dealt with in the industry. We have no doubts she will go far in her career and forever more we will be recommending her to friends / family in need of finding a place to live (along with using her ourselves!). Thank you, Angelina!

Thankful to have Dhirren Kambo as my agent

Dhirren Kambo was extremely helpful organising the tenancy extension of 11B Hollycroft Ave. Dhirren's detailed advice on the rental price, the dynamics of rental calendar and how to conduct the negotiations were invaluable. Thanks to his professional expertise we achieved a great price and terms for the new contract. Dhirren was always available on the phone, via email, he was as helpful in negotiating the extension of the tenancy of 11C Hollycroft Ave in Oct 2022. I'm truly thankful to have such a competent and caring agent by my side.

As first time buyers we were a bit cluless and couldn't have asked for a more patient, understanding, professional and friendly Estate Agent who has assisted us every step of the way since day 1. Thanks so much Kevin for everything!

A Great Property Manager (Tony Chan)

Tony is simply the best Property Manager we have had. He is very responsive. He excels in providing us updates on our property and if something needs our attention such as a repair then Tony makes sure it is completed professionally and also monitors the cost of the repairs to make sure we get "value for money". Tony is our trusted partner and has earned both our respect and friendship. We cannot speak more highly of Tony. The only Property Manager we ever want is Tony. Thank you. You have a wonderful and motivated employee.

Dedication is the word that describes my experience with Foxtons team in Twickenham.Mr Manu as the Head of the sale group has assured me with good results from the first meeting and sure has delivered in a record time. It took about 6 weeks to exchange.Mr Micheal and Ms Jazz both done a marvelous job in adding value to the whole sale process.Mr Manu has done alot of behind the scenes effort with the buyers and the Solicitors that he personally recommended. Clients not usually aware of this effort. What matters are the results and that has been achieved at the end and everyone was happy.
