GoogleFollowing the demise of my mother in November 2017 her property passed to me in her will. The property was in Maidstone, Kent and I live in Basildon, Essex so I required the services of a local estate agents in the Maidstone area to deal will advertising the property, arranging and dealing with viewings and hopefully the completion of the sale.
I chose Century21 at Maidstone as they dealt with the purchase of the property next door some 3/4 years previously. I asked for the same representative Mr Peter Lott to act in this matter. At the initial meetings with Mr Lott every eventuality and conditions were explained to me in a clear, precise and professional manner. which was comforting as the last time I sold a property was 40 years ago and things have changed quite a bit.
I knew exactly what the fees were from the onset and the property was on the websites within 24 hours which was impressive. The portfolio of photos was excellent as well.
I was kept up to date on every occasion of viewings and the results of them which was important as I was not local. I was also impressed by the fact if I e-mailed or phoned Mr Lott he replied the same day with an answer or update to my query.
My mothers house is now sold and all matters have been concluded.
If I intend to buy or sell a house in the next 40 years I would use Century21 in the first instance.

GoogleFirst time with this estate agents and if it wernt for Katie Harris and Louis I would of been writing a bad review! They are by far the best too in the office! Katie from the starts has been amazing and has dealt with everything in the best way she could of and has really bent over backwards for myself, if you want to rent a property just ask for Katie or Louis they will help you out and direct you in the right way and do there very best for you! Very polite and professional at there job and personally think they should be in a higher job role! So thanks to them this company are getting a good review even tho my landlord was a nightmare from hell but that’s not the estate agents fault hence the good review!

Google(Translated by Google) Never acuidais this agency. Lie systematically problematic and uncultured. They do not know or use a bank account. A real scam

No acuidais jamás a esta agencia. Mienten sistemáticamente, problemáticos y sin cultura. No saben ni utilizar una cuenta bancaria. Una verdadera estafa

Having looked into your situation very carefully, I have found absolutely no grounds for this review. There has been no bank fraud and we have been extremely amenable with you. Despite this you have breached your tenancy agreement and vacated the property prior to the end of your tenancy thus leaving the landlord out of pocket. Whilst we welcome feedback from our clients we trust that they will be honest and factual, this review is tantamount to slander and we will be following up directly with yourself.

GoogleHorrible customer service! Booked a viewing, came in 10minutes early, nobody came and when I called in to ask what's going on, they said they didn't know anything. I asked so how could this booking have happened at all, and they said unless I can remember the name of the agent I had initially spoken to, they could't helps as they had no records of viewing of the flat. Nice... Not even worth one star

GoogleHi Everyone
I viewed a flat at Charles street (2 weeks ago) put a cash offer in. To my amazement this has been sold 5000 less then the offer I put in??? Is this legal legislation to do this? I was told my offer was too low. Yet sold for 5000 less. Cannot get my head around this. Was the vendor informed of my offer, seem not, I'm sure.
Terrible business

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused. If you would like me to contact the office on your behalf to rearrange I am more than happy to assist. Kind regards, Kirsty Stubbings, Century 21 UK Head Office

Dear Mr Webster, I have come across your comment but unfortunately I cannot find your details on our system in any capacity.
I would like to address the issues you have but I fear that your review may have been for another company with a very similar name. Could I please ask you to confirm that your review was intended for Century 21 Maidstone and if it was then I would like to chance to discuss your feelings.
Kind Regards

GoogleFriendly staff but they never get back to you. I chased them about a property i was interested in renting for 3-4 weeks by calling and going into the office. Was promised a call as soon as the information was obtained, but they never did get back to me. Shame as they had some lovely properties but didn't make me feel valued as a customer.
