Thank goodness for Winkworths.......We have bought, sold and rented out many properties over a good many years and having joined up with James Hathaway and his team at Winkworths we can now have complete peace of mind. They go the extra mile to ensure we, the landlord, and our tenants, are completely happy. Nothing, but nothing, is too much trouble. We recommend them 100% for both sales and rentals...Totally reliable and professional. Richard & Jo Howard.

Winkworth were fantastic with the management and sale of my rental property. Extra thanks to Nicola for handling the sale, she went above and beyond to ensure that it progressed as quickly as possible & kept me updated throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend their services.

Shaun and Aaron were amazing

Shaun and Aaron were amazing! The best real estate agents I have ever dealt with. Found us the most amazing property and helped us secure it and get it over the line in the most efficient and effortless way possible. They are both very friendly, honest and had great communication. Over all the they are both excellent at their jobs and car about their clients. Both went above and beyond in making this horrible process seem like a piece of cake!

If only we could give a 0 score.

If only we could give a 0 score. Worst letting agent we have ever had the misfortune of coming across. No communication, no call backs, no explanations and no assistance. Avoid

I have contacted James Old for his opinion on investment property, he is exceptional and gave outstanding information. He has tremendously helped through my property buying journey. I cannot recommend James Old enough. He responds very fast, direct to the point and professional. In addition to that they are all lovely to work with. Thanks for everything.

Kensal Rise’s best estate agent

Winkworth stepped into the breach after our previous agent failed to produce a satisfactory buyer. Within 48 hours we had two offers and a buyer prepared to pay over asking price. Andy Carre was thoroughly professional and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Definitely the best agents in Kensal Rise.

Winkworths

Winkworths, and Patrick in particular, have been fantastic from start to finish in a difficult market. They helped us navigate some tricky waters, communicated effectively and clearly, and we felt well looked after. Patrick was very professional and helpful through the entire process and could be called upon for anything. Thank you!

A Stellar Experience

A Stellar Experience with a Highly Professional Seller Property Agent!I recently had the pleasure of working with Mr Simon Jenkin as property agent, and I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I was with his professionalism and dedication throughout the entire process. From the very first day until the end, he consistently went above and beyond to ensure a seamless and successful experience.One of the standout qualities of Mr Simon was his exceptional availability. No matter the time of day, he was always just a phone call away, ready to address any concerns or answer any questions I had. His prompt responses and willingness to assist demonstrated his commitment to providing top-notch service and ensuring my peace of mind throughout the entire process.Thank you, Mr Simon for your outstanding service and for exceeding my expectations at every turn!

Avoid renting through them

Property manger is inexperienced, unresponsive, possibly confused and disorganised, seemingly working entirely towards the interests of the landlord

I had a great experience viewing the property with the agent. They were very friendly, professional, and knowledgeable, and were able to answer all of the questions I had.

Dean made the search for a new home really straightforward and was great to liaise with during the whole process. Never had such a stress free move. Thanks so much!

Not professional. After scheduling a 5pm viewing ( 9 Brechin Court) on a Tuesday a week in advance, the agent calls me around lunch time confirming the viewing, which I confirmed. At 4:55 (as I am 1 minute away the property) agent calls and says that the viewing is not possible and need to reschedule. They do not give a strong enough reason. The reason is the house at the moment is “not in a viewing condition”. No follow ups, not the slightest customer care shown. They need to understand their job and do that properly! Highly unprofessional, would not recommend this. Poor management, poor agents leading to a very unpleasant experience.

I have had a horrible experience with…

I have had a horrible experience with Maddie Barrington as a tenant.We were presented with a dirty property full of black mold and left to rot with a newborn for two and a half years before eventually having to move out.We faced a sizeable rent increase as well but absolutely no action towards our very serious issue.We have lost thousands of pounds worth of clothes and have had to spend tens of hours emptying our wardrobes in order to wash our clothes again and again.On top of everything we had to pay enormous electricity bills as a result of running several dehumidifiers.Maddie has not been helpful or accommodating.I would recommend to make sure you do not deal with her If you do have to work with wink worth.Edit: In regards to your response, I have put the name of the person there so you should be able to know what office this is. The property is in N1.

Proper lettings

We have just re-let our property with Aaron and the team at Winkworth and found it to be a smooth experience. This is the second time they will have found us tenants and we very much appreciated the patience and advice Aaron and his team have offered throughout.

I was assisted by Greg Darby and he made the whole process of selling my home very easy. He knew that I was a first time seller and so made sure that I understood everything from step 1 to signing on the dotted line. I would thoroughly recommend him for anyone looking to sell in the Reading area. Quick and easy - just what I wanted.
