Naveed & team managed my property for many years while I lived overseas. They were highly professional but also personable and made the process, even when changing tenants very easy. I had no hesitation asking them to act for me when I decided to sell. They gave a great service and advice. I always felt they understood what I wanted and acted with my best interests at heart. I woukd highly recommend the team for either managing or buying/selling properties.

My friend and I recently began renting a flat from Martin & Co and Hamza’s been exceptionally helpful and professional throughout the whole process. The property has a few issues but he’s responded promptly to helping resolve any concerns. However, while Hamza has been great, our brief encounter with other people from the Balham branch (via phone or in person) could be improved

A Highly Professional Service
Working with Martin & Co Balham has helped make the process of letting in London for the first time straightforward and hassle free thanks to the outstanding work of estate agent Gabriela Benewiat. With excellent communication skills and an honest approach to the letting process, she has always followed through on any enquiries and requests with great efficiency. Martin & Co's tenancy procedure through Goodlord referencing was highly secure and there was always advice and guidance if required. If you're new to the London rental market, I would highly recommend speaking with Gabriela from Martin & Co Balham.

Myself and my partner approached the Estate agent and the lady with dark hair inside and shouted at us to not approach this Estate agent as they do not serve minority ethnic groups and people who are not of a w middle class background and know of others who have faced unfair discrimination from this Estate agents!
Dear Maria, This never happened, and your description of events are unrealistic, as you basically have stated that whilst you were outside our office, before you even entered, you were told not to come into the office, based on your race! This is wholly untrue and this event never took place. Please note that myself the owner of this business am from an ethnic background and there are two other employees that work in this office who are also from ethnic backgrounds. At our agency, we pride ourselves on providing fair and equal service to all clients, irrespective of background or ethnicity. We have a diverse team committed to upholding the highest standards of professionalism and respect for everyone who walks through our doors. We have zero tolerance for any form of discrimination, and we actively promote inclusivity and diversity in our business practices. We believe that this is a totally fake review, and we have reported this directly to Google. Please feel free to contact me directly on 0208 675 4428. Best Regards, Naveed Salim - Director
