Carter Jonas Lettings reviews in Newbury

Would not rent from them again if my life depended on it.

Having rented a property through Carter Jonas and made several complaints regarding the state of the property, there lack of response regarding these complaints was just the push we needed to buy a house. It was only then did I receive an email asking if I would like to meet at the property to discuss repairs. Let’s be perfectly honest this wasn’t for our benefit. Having made arrangements to hand back the keys we took time off work and waited at the property, only to be stood up - yes people they didn’t bother meeting us to do the final inspection or take the keys. This lead to a formal complaint being made and guess what the only call we have received from them was to thank us for the high standard we left the property in and to say we would be receiving our full deposit back - they couldn’t even get that right - wanted bank details even though they’d been taking rent. Anyway a long story short I wouldn’t recommend them, I wouldn’t rent a property through them again. They were happy for us to live with black mouldy bathroom, broken fencing, unusable cooker hob, window seals gone, broken door latches and locks etc etc. oh and this property is owned by HS2 which makes this standard of living even more outrageous. We had a leaking central heating pipe, phoned the emergency number and as water sprayed out through the wall, I was told someone would be out to fix it the following day.

Superb!

Our experience with Carter Jonas was excellent. We had quite a few hurdles to overcome to be able to purchase our new home and Ed was always helpful and persistent in overcoming the difficulties. I feel we had a great relationship with Ed, he is friendly and was very professional throughout the process. All employees that I interacted with at Carter Jonas were polite and responded promptly to all my enquiries.

Fulham flat letting.

The re-letting of our flat in Fulham has just been completed following a schedule of re-fitting and improvements. Carter Jonas has provided excellent support and advice throughout. We found the lettings staff to be friendly, approachable and effective. We were kept fully informed throughout and the level of service and communication was continued by the admin.team once tenants were found. It is what one would expect from a long-established multi-disciplinary national property partnership.

Avoid at all costs - AVOID- AVOID - AVOID

AVOID at all costs. Still waiting to resolve and still no response from the below. Nearly 4 months now after handing the keys back. Terrible company.After responding to a request to advise carter Jonas how to help me, still no further in obtaining the rent deposit back. Total delay technics.Completely unproffessional company - Whilst trying to get my rent deposit back, the Senior Building Surveyor suggested, 2 unqualified statements. I am yet to have my monies back, or even paret there of.1, All electrics and data cables should be removed from the floors and walls. Seriously, this was part of the reason we rented the place originally. He had no idea what the landlord required either.2, 2 different cracks that had appeared in entire building was because the decorator had not even visited. I cannot believe he could even suggest this. It was obvious that the old building needing regular decoration, which we did, regularly. It was obvious the decorator had been in. If he thinks he is qualified, then I would check his training certificate, of course after 3 months cracks could appear in an old building. Because of his attitude, I will not be using Carter Jonas for any of my future ventures.I have just sent you an email, after your response. Awaiting a positive reply

I have been with Carter Jonas in Newbury for over 6 years as a tenant to one of their properties I need to say that as an estate agency is the best in the country. The staff are very helpful and always there if you need them. I just want to thank the whole team for their hard work and honesty. Many thanks for everything especially to Jessica.

Great selling experience with Carter…

Great selling experience with Carter Jonas and the agent who dealt with me, Rupert Reeves. Achieved valuation, which was the best bit! I sold my father's house in Newbury - he had already moved out. The whole process was smooth and easy, and the agent was always quick to respond to any queries. I have no complaints at all - very happy that I used them after speaking to several other firms first.

Amazing team.

Naomi at Carter Jonas has been amazing, it was a massive hurdle for me with selling and then renting and extremely stressful on the selling end (with a different agent I must add) but she made it quite easy for me as I haven't rented for about 18 years. The whole experience with Carter Jonas has been great and I would highly recommend using them if you can.

Avoid they treated me appalingly

I had a disgusting experience selling my house through Carter Jonas.Despite teliing them I wanted to keep my sale private to my neighbours, one month before my move they went round each house in my close, (apart from mine) with a A4 sheet of paper advertising a photo of my home and letting people know they had sold it, therefore disrespecting my need for privacy.Worst company i have ever had the misfortune to use.

I would like to say a “HUGE” Thank you to Carter Jonas of Newbury. They were absolutely Fantastic & such lovely people to deal with, especially Catherine Pallet, Property Manager and her famous sheep tape measure. I have never laughed as much measuring room sizes with a sheep. I highly recommend this company. They ooze professionalism and at the same time give you fabulous customer service. They found my husband and me our “Dream Home”

Seamless purchase transaction

The purchase of our home was professionally handled. From the initial call, the viewing, and then to the days after we got the keys we were dealt like a partner and the team at the branch handling the sale of the property provided the patience and knowledge with their vested experience to support us on the entire journey of the process. Well done to Ed and the team - they are heads and shoulders ahead of the other local agents by a long margin.

Avoid

I used a "partner" at Carter Jonas as a valuer for a statutory lease extension for a property that I own. The individual concerned wrote an initial valuation report in which I found (after spending ten minutes reading it) several mistakes. He was rather reticent to correct them, but did so after a bit of argument. I also had to argue with him in order to get him to lower the valuation estimate, which is clearly in the interest of the client in contracts such as this. During these discussions he said at one point "a few hundred pounds here or there doesn't make any difference." Well, maybe it doesn't matter to him because it's not his money, but it clearly matters to the client! I was not very pleased by his attitude overall, and his work (which is routine at best) was expensive, and careless. Would definitely not use Carter Jonas again.

Professional and nice to deal with

We selected Carter Jonas to act on an executors’ sale of a flat in Bishop Mansions because of their experience of handling transactions in this complex. We were not disappointed and very pleased with the service we received from Wayland Ward-Smith and Mandy Jacobs. They showed the flat to a number of potential buyers in a very short period of time and secured an offer at the asking price. The transaction was then delayed due to challenges in obtaining Probate but we received good advice on how to manage the delay and they also kept the intended purchaser advised so that they acquired the property when formalities had been completed

Professional service second to none

We used Carter Jonas's Fulham branch (Wayland Ward-Smith) to sell a much loved flat in January. We have used the branch on two previous occasions and again could not fault the service. We achieved almost 10% above asking price and were impressed with the professionalism with which the transaction was handled. The communication was clear and advice was offered where needed. We unreservedly recommend the branch and will use Wayland when we next come to buy or sell property in the area.

I would like to thank Ms Lajla Turner from the Kensington Office.

I would like to praise Ms Lajla Turner from the South Kensington office. She gave me great advice about the decor of the flat. I followed her advice and in less than two weeks she had found me a suitable tenant with almost the asking price. Ms Turner provided us with very reliable reference checks and the right tenant. She worked w/ends and even during her week's holiday and throughout was extremely constructive, courteous and helpful not only to myself but also to the tenant. A very smooth and pleasant experience!
