Austin Wyatt Winchester

Austin Wyatt Winchester came round my property without asking and let themselves in. When’inspecting’ they take many photos and videos of my possessions, excessive, like 20 pictures per room. 2 x 2h viewings conducted whilst I was living there. Confirmed by Josh, the ‘manager’ my house was ‘as it was 12m ago’ then claim for a load of lies. The manager broke data protection by discussing the previous Tennant with me as there was a dispute, funnily enough. Renting is bad enough, if you have to do it avoid these lot.

The Austin & Wyatt team in Lyndhurst with Rebecca Payne, Madeleine King, and Mike Lawrence are absolutely excellent. They masterfully sorted the marketing and sale of our special property and handled the viewings with professional protocols. Very good. But they also went on to handle the complex process of getting from offer to Exchange of Contracts. Not easy with hiccups in the chain and with some solicitors not up to the job. But Madeleine kept us informed, chased those not performing and really helped us keep cool when all was very stressful. Having had to interact with other Estate Agents, in our search for a new property, you observe how poor some other Agents perform. Austin & Wyatt are in a different league. Very professional and great communicators with each other and with their clients. Would use this team again and again. John

I can’t recommend Jared highly enough. From start to finish his polite professionalism made the whole process smooth and stress free. He kept us informed every step of the way and always communicated clearly which gave us complete confidence throughout. Everything Jared promised he delivered, promptly and without fuss. It is rare to find someone so reliable and dedicated. A brilliant letting agent and we could not have asked for better.

Rebecca Payne was very helpful and energetic during our sale of a house in Lyndhurst. They did overvalue the house when we were looking for a estate agent and then almost immediately told us that the market had changed and we should drop the price which I suspect is routine (irritating) behaviour. Also they heartily recommended their own lawyers, Howell's for conveyancing (who were difficult to contact and could not make international phone calls ?!?! - we live in Canada). It was only after starting the conveyancing paperwork that it became apparent the Austin Wyatt receive several hundred pounds for the referral. Would use them again as Rebecca was great, but would find my own lawyers for conveyancing.

I just want to give a massive thank you and recognition to Jared. For reasons out of his control, had a little bumpy ride after finding our dream property, but I can not thank him enough for his patients and hard-work to make it all come together. Moving is always a stressful time, but his humour, empathy and professionalism kept the experience still an exciting and special time for me and my partner. Thanks again Jared!

Purchased Property through Austin & Wyatt (Lyndhurst). We purchased a property through Austin & Wyatt and from the initial inquiry to picking up the keys we received excellent communication (with us and the Estate Agent selling our property etc.) and service. I know that it is a whole team effort to market and sell a property but would like to single out Madeleine for her professionalism and commitment when the problems cropped up (which they do). We are now in our new home and loving it. We didn't even need to chase to have the For Sale / Sold sign removed. Thanks Team.

Jared went above and beyond, giving up his Saturday to show us multiple properties. He provided thorough details about each one and was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, friendly, and professional throughout. His kindness and enthusiasm made the whole experience a pleasure. Even if we don't get the flat we're after, we'd still love to rent through Jared, as we know we'd be well looked after. Highly recommend!

We decided to market our home through A&W as they are selling a house we are interested in and it seemed the convenient thing to do. It has turned out to be the right thing to do, as they have proved to be very professional, friendly and great at communicating on all aspects of our sale. They offer comprehensive feedback quickly and all viewings are confirmed by text. Special thanks to Madeleine, who has been so helpful and is an excellent ambassador for A&W. Also Dawn, who was very helpful and friendly during our viewings. Overall, a great team with extensive local knowledge and enthusiasm for what they do. Highly recommended.

Never ever again

We rented with Austin&Wyatt Bournemouth, great at first couldnt do more for us. However over months our home became covered in mould and damp. No fault of ours! Bit Austin&Wyatt and countrywide and our landlord didnt want to know. We in the end had to go to the council, in return we had a load of abuse from our landlord and our 4 year old was scared to be at home and never wanted to go home. What made it even worse is we had to get rid of a lot of our belongings when we moved due to the mould that had got to it. We have now had to start again. Honestly the worst experience of my life. And with my child and trying to keep them healthy too. Oh and the 1 star id actually give it 0!

Right from the start of my experience with Sarah and her team, they were knowledgeable, informed, enthusiastic and prepared to listen to my needs. I was kept up to date with progress and was given almost immediate feedback after viewings. I would highly recommend anyone looking to buy or sell in Lyndhurst to make sure their first call is to Austin Wyatt. You won’t be disappointed.

Michael was very helpful at the introduction. We chose A&W over three other local agents. However, things went drastically wrong after that. The photography (a 'professional' photographer in a tearing hurry) was very poor; lots of overexposure, and failed to actually capture the relevant features (eg stools chopped in half at breakfast bar, missed a feature wall, and had to be called back from the road for missing photos). When the Particulars were sent the photos were unsatisfactory. A&W said they would correct this, but when particulars were resent - they sent the same photos even though we had discussed and approved other photos for use - including some that we took ourselves, to supplement the poor ones. There appears to be little communication between the staff, and even less with the clients. As a result we decided not to continue with this agent having lost faith: if they couldn't even get the particulars right, what sort of service would they be able to provide further down the line? Would not recommend.

Very impressive service from Madeleine, Rebecca and the team at Austin & Wyatt in Lyndhurst when selling my house. I greatly appreciated their local knowledge and expertise when marketing the house, with first class communication throughout the sale process.

The Representative Jared was very helpful, enthusiastic he arranged to meet me the same day due to my own conveniences we managed to secure a residence even though I had to decline due to a place closer situated to my business I can not fault Austin & Wyatt and the team.. 5*

Reviewing here as a house buyer. Excellent service from everyone at Austin Wyatt but a special shout out to Rebecca who was a pleasure to deal with - professional, knowledgeable and a great communicator.

We've received a very professional service from Richard and his team. We approached A+W to take over the management of a difficult tennancy. Where we had not been able to gain access to carry out an inspection, Richard persisted and managed to complete one which gave us valuable information to support our future application to the Courts for possession. As part of this process, Richard served a Section 21 Notice and afterwards gave us valuable guidance and support throughout the Courts process. Would highly recommend Richard and his team for anyone considering using them A+W letting services.

Disinterested, non-existent service

Austin & Wyatt Bournemouth: It was only when I threatened to terminate the contract that they pulled their finger out and started allowing viewings. The sales process took an entire year thanks to the buyer’s solicitor (recommended by Austin Wyatt). The entire process has been nothing but stress. Please contact the lovely Marta at Palmer Snell for a much better service.

Couldn’t recommend Sarah and Rebecca at Lyndhurst branch for all their hard work they’ve done helping us buy our dream house. Nothing is too much trouble and always been happy and willing to help. Very reassuring especially through this crazy market we are in. I will certainly be using them to sell IF we ever have to move. ! No hesitation in recommending.

Sarah has been absolutely amazing in helping us find the perfect new home. She took the time to listen, get to know us & acted accordingly. Sarah and her team went out their way to do letter drops as well. Every time we call the office they are very helpful & super quick to reply. I am pleased to say they are now selling our house because they are superstars!!! Highly recommend the Lyndhurst office!

I just wanted to take some time out of unpacking, after moving into a property from Austin & Wyatt in Lyndhurst. Lloyd who has been my main contact has been an absolute pleasure to deal with, when ever I have had a question (and I have had a few), he would go out of his way and get me the answer as soon as he can. There was a bit of a delay with old tenants moving, but I was kept updated regularly. I found the property on Rightmove and A&W's write up of the property was spot on. I have had contact with most of the office I believe when calling in, if a message is left with someone other than Lloyd, it gets to him and he calls you back. A&W have been super professional from start to finish and I'm sure they will be going forward too. Thank you to Lloyd, Richard and the rest of the team. I would HIGHLY recommend Austin & Wyatt to anybody looking to rent a property in the future. Thank you.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

My agent Richard has been absolutely fantastic, one of the most satisfying experience I had renting an house in UK. I was rushing to get a decent house, and after a few really delusional experience we found Austin & Wyatt and all became nice and smoot!! We made in one week.

We have recently purchased a property through the team at the Lyndhurst branch. Madeleine in particular has been fantastic….professional and friendly, and her communication has been excellent, giving us regular updates along the way. Every contact we have had with the team has been really good. We are now dealing with Richard in the Lettings department, who is also proving to be great. An all around pleasurable experience of an estate agent. Would highly recommend.

We cannot fault the service we have received from Austin & Wyatt during the process of buying our house through them. Particularly Sarah. She has hand-held us through the process from start to finish, providing support and clarity throughout our purchase. I cannot recommend this branch more highly. Mike, Sarah and the team are fantastic!

Austin and Wyatt have been so helpful with my house move. They always kept me in the loop and made the moving process that bit smoother. The little moving in gifts were also a nice touch. Special thanks to Nick for putting up with my daily phone calls. I would highly recommend Austin and Wyatt and would like to say a big Thankyou for all your work!
