TrustpilotWinkworth Blackheat
Never ever rent a property from this agency. The estate agent is there for you only until you sign the contract and pay the money. The agent hid from us so many problematic issues in the property and our issues started from the day we moved in. And of course, the agent doesn't want to hear from you, as they have management company. We had an emergency a week ago and called an engineer as recommended by the agency. Same problem has happened today, out of the working hours of the agency and we called the same engineer, who would have come immediately if the agency had paid him for the job done a week ago... We had to wait for pretty some time for the agency to open and another 5 hours to take care of our problem. The absence of heating and hot water as per the property manager is NOT an emergency, so we stayed in cold for nearly 15 hours. Such a disgrace for Winkworth.

TrustpilotStay away at all cost
I used Winkworth to find a tenant for my property and manage it. It has been a horrendous experience and I would recommend choosing pretty much any other agency. I needed to do some work for an electricity certificate and they brought a supplier which quoted me 3 times what it should cost so had to find a supplier myself. Then, due to a "human error" they sent their supplier in without telling me and did the work. My supplier came in and called me that they already did the work and I had to pay him for his time (which to be fair they did reimburse me). However, they then charged me the full amount of their supplier who did unapproved work in my property. Needless to say I terminated the contract with them immediately. They also extremely rude and unresponsive, would highly recommend to stay away.

TrustpilotTerrible Experience
Recent tenancy renewal with Winkworth.An utter shambles. Multiple contracts issued, all incorrect. Incapable of working out the financials correctly. Defensive when challenged with reasonable questions.We have luckily a great landlord that helped us sort it out. It’s criminal the amount of money Winkworth charge and still so many problems. Avoid at all costs.

TrustpilotFantastic service.
Fantastic service.We had an unexpectedly protracted process, which was nothing to do with Winkworth. However they advised and supported us throughout. They really did go “above and beyond”. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. Professional and helpful from valuation to completion.
We're happy to see that you had a 5-Star experience. Thanks for sharing

TrustpilotBelligerent, argumentative, unprofessional, rude
Belligerent, argumentative, unprofessional, rude...I called to invite Winkworth Ladbroke Grove to my house, with a view to asking them to sell it. I spoke with the franchisee who kept interjecting when I tried to speak, refused to answer a question preferring to justify the 'fee' arrangement by referencing the status quo, and who was unwilling to offer me their best percentage prior to coming into my house. Clearly politeness and professionalism isn't part of the service offered by Winkworth Ladbroke Grove and they continue to reinforce the poor reputation enjoyed by the industry as a whole.Quite why Estate Agents feel they can base their business model on an egregious percentage of the value of your home is beyond my ken, and is an outdated, outmoded and foreign principle I am unwilling to work with.

TrustpilotThe Best Service You Can Ask For
Jenny Wintermeyer is an asset to this company. I have dealt with her before, and she has proved again that she says what she does, and then she does what she says. Good, honest service, and much appreciated.

TrustpilotGood job Winkworth and team!!
I have been with Winkworth for quite a while now. I found their service to be excellent and they are very professional and extremely helpful. My tenant left during the pandemic, and i was starting to worry as i don’t live where my property is located. One of their agents called Nishi, helped me throughout the whole process of hunting new tenants to all other agreement related issues. I am extremely grateful and thank wholeheartedly to all the agents who have helped me finding a new tenant promptly and efficiently go through my tenancy contract. Highly recommended!

We found everyone we dealt with at Winkworth to be highly professional, friendly and communicative. We would definitely recommend their service to anyone looking to sell. They worked hard to get the best possible price for our property and were happy to give us advice along the way. We never had to wait more than an hour or so for someone to respond to us whenever we contacted them. Thanks very much to the whole team for all your hard work.

TrustpilotWinkworth Plc agency - The worst agency ever
We were tenants on one of the properties they managed at Winkworth Bow Estate Agents.First, they are difficult to come and fix any house issues. They just want you to pay, and they would do their minimum or even less to manage the property.Second, we have left the property long ago, we left it in a rather good condition, for a over 4 years tenancy, and they want to keep all the deposit. It has been over a month and we are still waiting for our deposit.They are not coming back to us, they are ignoring our emails, they are just a bad agency.I have lived in many places with okay agencies, but Winkworth would be the worst. I would not recommend anyone to rent a property with them.Please if you are reading this before renting, find another agency you will not regret it.

It's a difficult time in the market, but Thomas Syms gave us good advice on how to navigate it.The team was good with communication and gave us regular updates on WhatsApp.We completed seven weeks after the initial offer.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Jessica. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Thomas is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

TrustpilotWinkworth (Kirstie Barber) will lie to get your business.
AVOID Winkworth estate agents (KIRSTIE BARBER). Kirstie will give you all false info to get you to make an offer and will lie about the property’s history. She will lie and when caught red handed, will lie to you again to cover her first lie. Pure shameless or just another estate agent! Do not use Winkworth as it a very dishonest business that you will keep on chasing to get some answers and will end up wasting your time & money. Just poor customer service & liars.

TrustpilotWinkworth
Winkworth, Poringland. We called them on Friday about the property to rent minutes after it went on Rightmove. They do not offer virtual viewings even if you live 200 miles away. Agent said they are only taking details to schedule offline appointments, took our details. On Monday they said viewings arranged for Thursday but it's all fully booked already (how?) and they will see when to book us for other day. When asked to film a short video when they will be at the property to understand if it's worth a 200 mile trip - they said they can't do this.Absolutely ridiculous service!

TrustpilotAwful experience
I am a small landlord and made the huge mistake of renting my houses through Winkworths and regretted it ever since. The current dispute I am having is over the deposit and who they represent. In practice, they seem to think it is the tenant.....
Thank you for taking the time to write a review however naturally Winkworth are disappointed that on this occasion it is a negative review. All of the Winkworth offices are independently owned and operated and therefore we would be grateful if you could indicate the location of the office you have been dealing with so the matter can be looked into. Apologies once again if we have fallen short of your expectations but please do provide more information to see if the matter can be resolved.
