Very rude agent

Very rude agent, i think their name is Maggie. Was very unhelpful and rude. My mother confirmed the viewing and provided her phone number but the agent failed to even call. Called later and belittled my mother while being snarky.

Deborah did a great job with the photography for our property. She was professional, efficient and very easy to work with on the day, which made the whole process straightforward. The photos came out really well and captured the house beautifully, helping it present strongly when it went live online. We really appreciated the care taken and would happily recommend Winkworth’s photography service.

Lauren Douglas (Winkworth Shorditch)…

Lauren Douglas (Winkworth Shorditch) has helped me find tenants twice. On both occasions, she's found me multiple high-quality tenants very quickly. On both occasions, I've been delighted with the support she's provided. Her local knowledge and understanding of the ever-changing regulations governing the market are unequalled. I'll certainly be using Lauren Douglas again.

Excellent Agents

I have worked with many estate agents on buying and selling properties. I also used to work in the commercial property sector. In selling this property I have been very impressed by the advice and service given by Winkworths but notably by Lewis. We have been informed and regularly updated (without chasing or prompting). Lewis has been proactive throughout to ensure that our sale was made quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Lewis and Winkworth.

Excellent service in the short time we have used them to look for rented accommodation. They seem to know their niche market in finding the nicest properties and not just taking anything. We had a particularly excellent service from Joe who was the person that showed us around a few properties, he did his research and was very helpful and friendly when possible. He was also honest and straight to the point, great qualities. Thanks Joe.

John was a great agent and very helpful. Especially for someone like me buying for the first time, it can be very confusing and hard to navigate. He was always available and very quick in replying any questions

I am extremely disappointed with the service provided by this agency. It has now been over a month since I moved out of the property, and I have still received no clear response regarding the return of my deposit. Despite repeated attempts to obtain an update, communication has been poor and unhelpful. The most concerning aspect is that the agency’s advice has simply been to hire a solicitor in the hope that this might put pressure on the landlord. Rather than actively assisting in resolving the issue, they appear to have shifted the responsibility and cost onto the tenant. A letting agency should act professionally, communicate effectively, and help facilitate a fair and timely resolution of deposit matters. Unfortunately, this has not been my experience. I would advise prospective tenants to think carefully before using this agency.

I'm pleased to have chosen Winkworths @ Reading as my let only agent. They located what appear to be suitable tenant's with minimum fuss, carried out all the relevant checks and succesfully arranged the check in service too. Furthermore, gave me all the necessary advice a first time landlord could need. Overall a great experience. I would definelty recommend James and the team at Winkworth.

Aaron was an amazing help

Aaron was an amazing help. As soon as I spoke with him regarding re renting my flat he put me on the right 'track' in regards to everything I needed to do or not to do. The previous tenants left the flat in a real mess and Aaron recommended certain businesses that dealt with many of my concerns ie getting rid of rubbish, where to get an EPC from etc. As soon as the flat was ready to go on the market Aaron was able to muster up fifteen applicants whilst weedling out a few that weren't quite right for my flat. He got me an immediate offer which was a little more than expected which was great. Overall I had a great experience with Winkworth, would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone that would like to rent out their property.

Poor. Data protection ignored, no-show for viewing appointment.

Very friendly contact via email with Abbie Greisman. My explicit request not to use my data for any marketing purposes was simply ignored though. We send agreed on a date for a viewing, for which I received an appointment reminder on 13/07. But nobody showed up at the property, and the error wasn't even acknowledged; Abbie referred to a much earlier email exchange from 09/07 though, suggesting that it was all our fault. Poor.

Winkworth Reading manage a flat I let out and after the past six or so years of working with them I wanted to put on record how professional and efficient the lettings team is from the advertising/sales through to tenant onboarding and communications, property management, accounts and regulatory compliance. I've worked through other agencies but this team knocks socks off the others.

A Lettings agent who gives good advice & listens

Ben at Winkworths Clapham gave me good advice from his valuation visit through to finding me a tenant within 2 weeks of going on the market. I achieved close to the rental value advertised in a competitive market & the process was stress free because he listened to my requirements.

Winkworth and in particular James Hathaway, are forgive the pun, the 'Jewel in the Crown' when compaired to many agents. As a landlord they tick all the right boxes whilst managing our let properties in Reading. Just as importantly, they go out of their way to look after our tenant's who by result renew more often than not. Can't recommend them highly enough to new andlords and potential tenants.

Since moving into our property two month ago we have gotten nothing but wonderful service from Winkworth. From our first contact until now they have been very professional, efficient, informative and helpful. They helped me to get my referencing and paperwork done since this was my first rental in the UK. A special thanks to Charlotte and Aoife for your professional help and effort to help us to move in the property at time.

I cannot recommend Aaron and his team highly enough - they are first rate, professional, knowledgeable and dependable. Any issues were ironed out quickly and Aaron went above and beyond to find a solution that left tenants, landlord and buyer happy. Aaron is extremely responsive, practical and a delight to deal with. I have dealt with other local agents over the years and Aaron is head and shoulders above the rest. He knows the market inside out and I wouldn't hesitate in renting my property with his team again.

Poor experience

This review has taken me a while to write because the experience we had with both Winkworths and the landlords was incredibly disappointing. As tenants, we genuinely felt we were treated very poorly.

Recently rented out my flat in Kensal Green with Winkworth Kensal Rise and am very happy with the service provided by Aaron Priscott and his team, from the initial consultation through to the tenants moving in. They are extremely professional and have a great knowledge of the market. They were able to get over the asking price (which I was definitely sceptical of), and provided me assistance with preparing the flat for renting as required. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone.

I had a great experience working with my lettings negotiator Isabelle Evely throughout the process of securing my apartment. She was incredibly helpful from start to finish, making everything feel smooth and straightforward. She was always professional, reassuring, and happy to answer any questions I had, which really helped take the stress out of the process. I truly appreciated her support and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and professional estate agent.

Absolutely outstanding service from the Greg and Trudy. Professional, knowledgeable, and always available to answer questions throughout the entire process. Both Greg and Trudy have made everything smooth and stress-free, keeping me updated every step of the way, even at the most challenging time. Their dedication, communication, and hard work really stood out. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. Great job!
