GoogleMy family and I have been dealing with this company since 1969 when my parents bought their home in Camden from Stickley and Kent (now part of Hotblack). Since then I have rented out a house and then two flats via their letting service. I’ve always found them to be professional and diligent in all their dealings with me. They also know the Camden property market very well.
I’m delighted to recommend them if you need property services.

GoogleI have recently renewed rental of my property through Hotblack Desiatio. Having evaluated them against other agencies I have found the agency to be very efficient, informative and ethical. They offered very competitive fees and know the market very well.
Diriye, Jane & Adriana have been very helpful on the rental side of their team
I would not hesitate in recommending them

TrustpilotJust don't go there.
Agents are inexperienced children with trust funds. Can't run a diary or have a successful interaction with a client to save their lives.

GoogleSuch a good letting experience after having many bad experiences in London. Ripon was so helpful throughout the process, was always quick to answer any questions we had, and ready with all the information we needed. We experienced some issues on our side during the letting process, but throughout Ripon remained patient and helpful which was very much appreciated. Really a standout company and agent, would absolutely recommend to others!

GoogleRipon Danis at Hotblack Desiato is the most helpful and considerate agent I’ve come across to date.
He truly listened to my needs and as a result I ended up finding a flat in such a short amount of time. Hot Black is lucky to have an agent like him on their team! For anyone looking for a flat, I’d highly recommend.

GoogleRipon has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process of finding a flat in Camden to finally settling in. After having heard horror stories about other agencies in London, I was hesitant to use one I had never heard of, but the service really exceeded all my expectations. Ripon was punctual, always available and professional.

TrustpilotGreat agents- highly supportive
Jake and Stuart both worked tirelessly over a two year period (in which we had two sales fall through) to get my property over the line and sold to the right people for the right price. They were always incredibly helpful, supportive and good humoured- which helped make, what would otherwise be, a very stressful business entirely tolerable. Highly recommend!

How can I say? When I decided to sell my flat I went back to the agency where I bought it in the first place and I was right. I met a professional team: young, dynamic and motivated people with the human touch. They took care of everything step by step. Mehdad especially was very helpful beyond my expectations. I truly recommend it.
