Winkworth Northampton reviews

I would never rent, as a university student, with these people again. Especially the landlord ‘Nikki Kooner’, they are nothing but money grabbing, scamming individuals. They genuinely made my life hell in my last year of university, from making us live with crackheads and not informing us of it until we raised multiple complaints to Nikki and the police, as in crackheads we’re breaking into our building, sleeping in our halls, needles/other drugs being left outside by our bin area. Forced us out of that accommodation, then tried to lie and make it seem as though they never forced us out. Leaving us with no wifi for 7 months, in our final year as university students in the new property. This resulted in us having to use insane amounts of mobile data to simply do our university work, watch TV ect. Not informing us of who are new landlord was, although whenever it was money related we would recieve emails from our old landlord, Nikki kooner, despite them telling us it was no longer her. Then charging us for normal wear and tear of the property that we lived in, as in minor scuff marks on walls/tiny marks on carpets. Trying to charge us to defrost a freezer? which doesn’t make sense as to how that is an issue from our end. Everything is just a money grabbing scheme for them when it comes to students and it’s utterly sickening, 0/10 would NOT recommend

I've just got to say what a fantastic service my family and myself have had from Winkworths, Wellingborough Road. Ours was a difficult sale for reason's beyond our control, but Ian especially was unbelievable to us. He kept us updated throughout our journey, and was more a friend than estate agent, along with all the staff. My family would just like to say a massive thank you.

I had a great experience renting through Winkworth Northampton. The team was professional, supportive, and friendly throughout, especially Natasha, who was exceptionally kind and helpful. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable estate agent.

If you are university student I would avoid at all costs!!! These are the worst set of people ever. They are greedy and selfish. They breached their own contract for students by letting people who weren’t students move into the same building as us which lead to homeless people constantly breaking in then kicked us out and moved us to half done accommodation. The accommodation had no WiFi for 8 MONTHS. When we initially moved in half of the stuff weren’t working and we had to find away to make it work ourselves. I had to live in room with mould growing despite me raising it to the agents multiple times and was told to just ‘open my window’??? Only when I had threaten to take it further is when someone came out to look. After them putting us through all of this, we were then charged for small things like having dust in our rooms or leaving things that were initially given to us in the room. The company and agents are greedy and don’t care about anything but money and themselves. Save yourself the trouble and DO NOT rent with them for ANY STUDENT ACCOMMODATION!!!!!

I recently rented my property through Winkworth and the experience was absolutely seamless from start to finish. Hassle-free, straightforward, and they made the whole process incredibly simple, exactly what you want as a landlord. Throughout every stage, they were thorough, on the mark, and gave me complete peace of mind with no worries whatsoever. Natasha and Ian are a brilliant team, always willing to help, always one step ahead, and nothing is ever too much trouble. The quality of service is second to none and I would not hesitate for a single moment to appoint them as my agents again. If you're looking for agents you can truly rely on, look no further. Highly recommended!

Leon hosted our viewing and he was absolutely amazing, he was personable and had great knowledge of the area/property as to answer and questions we had. We also didn’t feel rushed at all when viewing, he allowed to take our time to inspect the property.

Ian is a disgrace. We made 2 credible offers on a property and both times he didn't get back to us despite saying he would. Strange considering the property still hasn't sold. Waste of time

I've been incredibly impressive by the diligent service provided by Winkworths while handling the sale of our house. We were in a complicated chain and from the outset, they kept us updated regularly on how everything was progressing and handled problems that arose calmly and professionally. The way they marketed our house was fantastic and the strong listing led to a great offer very quickly. Selling a house is very stressful but they made it as smooth as possible throughout. I'd recommend their services very highly if you are looking to buy or sell. Thank you again to Ryan, Ian and the team.

I have recently sold my own property and my mother's house with Winkworth and would highly recommend them. Ian is very friendly, but professional and really helped us through the process. We were kept informed but never pestered and nothing was too much trouble. Ian really went above and beyond to get the chain moving, which helped everyone achieve the completion date.

Estate agents with a personal touch! Ian helped us so much during our move, both with our sale and our purchase. Everything that could go wrong did go wrong, but Ian was always there for us to sort it out, advise us what to do or just reassure us. When Ian wasn't available, the Winkworth team always did their best to help us in any way they could. Outstanding customer service, professional, understanding and empathetic. Thank you!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

We selected Ian from a group of three estate agents who submitted valuations for a family members property. We were drawn to his professionalism and market knowledge when appraising the property. The property was marketed professionally and we were informed at every stage of the progression with viewings and marketing . Ian was instrumental in ensuring smooth and prompt contract exchange and sale completion . At every stage , Ian and his team ensured the property sale went smoothly . We live out of the county so his help, local contacts and support were invaluable . I would have no hesitation in recommending Ian and his team .

I recently chose to rent my property in Northampton. I chose 3 agents to come round and value the house for rent and discuss the services they could offer. Winkworth were far superior compared to the other agents. They were very supportive in helping me get the house ready for renting and the fees are very competitive. All the staff are kind, helpful and knowledgeable. There was a little hiccup in the first few days after my tenant moved in but this was sorted swiftly. I highly recommend Winkworth’s to anyone choosing to rent their house.

The team at Northampton went over and above when selling our house. Ryan did out of hours viewings including evenings and Sundays. Our property was sold within 2 weeks, and they achieved a sale price of more than what we were hoping for. They have been great at supporting and advising us even with regards to finding a new home. We have been kept fully up to date along the way.

As a first time landlord, Winkworth came recommended. They explained how to maximise the rental value and helped us to understand what alternations needed to be made. Within no time a tenant was vetted and within the property sooner than expected and at full asking price. The team were brilliant to work with and made the whole process super easy for us. Big thanks to Nikki, Natasha and Ian. - Karen A

Amazing customer service...thank you so much.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

As a first time seller I met with a number of estate agents in Northampton and I asked myself 'who would I like to buy a house from?’ Winkworth were the clear winners with their friendly, professional and insightful approach. I am so happy I appointed Winkworth as Ian and the team were simply brilliant, going above and beyond all expectations. Ian who managed the sale, walked me through the process and gave great advice along the way which I felt was crucial in achieving an expedited sale at a great price. The valuation was spot on and I was very impressed with the frequency of viewings and regular progress updates through to sale completion. Thank you Ian and Winkworth!

As a first time landlord, I found Winkworth to be fantastic. Everything was very clear and all questions answered. Ian is a real professional, quick to respond and on the ball. Nikki is very responsive and very supportive. We were left very much with the feeling that the property is in good hands and that Winkworth are working in both the interest of the tenant and landlord. Would recommend to anyone.
