TrustpilotAsk for Charlotte at Chestertons St.John’s Wood
Chestertons were so helpful from beginning to end, renting out our flat in St John’s Wood super quickly and at a great price. All the staff were amazing and we were particularly impressed by Charlotte who was incredibly responsive, efficient, and communicative. Thank you Charlotte!

TrustpilotTerrible service to Landlords’ and Tenants’
Chesterton’s is the third property agent I have used. I have been with them for two years since they bought out the agent I was working with for over 15 years. The experience has been appalling for me as landlord and my tenants. I am not sure if it is incompetence or that the team is understaffed and they cannot cope with the number of properties they manage. My contract said they would inspect the property twice a year. They have only been once in the two years. Communication has been frustrating. Emails unanswered, messages left with no call back. Issues with the tenants left until the tenants got understandably hysterical. (And then they have the gall to charge a % fee for any repair work). In short the last two years have been the most stressful in 20 years of letting. Big clearly is not better! Don’t believe the guff about how professional they are.

TrustpilotI really liked Molly's approach
I really liked Molly's approach. As a landlord myself, I've met many agents and it's rare to you find an agent who appears genuine and not just money/bonus driven. Molly was exactly that. I'm sure all her clients felt that same sense of trust.

TrustpilotBullying & harassment by Chestertons’ Agent
I am being bullied by a Chestertons estate agent in respect of viewing the flat I occupy lawfully I have not even been in the property for 50% of the length of my contract (break clause) yet he was insisting that due to the short length of the contract he has a right to disturb my peaceful enjoyment of the property. I have already said no & he called again to bully me. This is harassment & I am writing this as part of my record keeping should this matter end up in court,I am simply not prepared to have people disturbing more than 50% of my contractual term. People wondering in & out of my space, nosing around in my wardrobes cupboards fridge freezer under the bed, footsteps all over my floors & rugs, disturbing my peace, & im paying rent that’s higher than the asking price which thankfully is unlawful with the new laws protecting tenants I ask Chestertons not to contact me again til the end of my contract is imminent A short contract of 9 months does not give you the right to break the law, I have a right a legal right to family life (article 8) & to the peaceful enjoyment of my property that I’ve paid to occupy, The landlord has expected me to take his mail to the concierge as if I’m his slave. They did not repair the TV in my room I had to buy a new one - he ignored my message re the tv, he argued that it worked when it clearly did not & now this. I’ve paid rent, I do not expect to be treated as if I’m living in a grace & favour flat, If Chestertons attend my premises without my permission I will call the police. It would be trespassing & harassment Theirs & the landlords financial interest do not delete my human rights nor the protection I have under the law. This is an attempt to drive me out of the premises early by making my stay untenable by forcing me to spend half of my time here in discomfort- this is harassment which is a criminal offence. Please stop. I deserve my peace. I’ve paid for it. I had to bid for this property because Chesterton said they received other offers & I had to bid way above the asking price. I’ve lived with no privacy as the blinds (mechanised) do not fully work exposing me to the outside world. Several emails I sent about this were ignored. Please stop bullying me & treating me like a squatter. Also I have developed a medical condition & been to A& E twice. I have a hospital appointment for further investigation in the coming weeks, however today after the agent called me & tried to force entry by telling me I had fewer rights due to the term of my contract I have begun to feel worse with pain spreading all over & I am going to A & E again. This is as a direct result of this insistent agent who only cares about prioritising his finacial interest. Should this matter go to court I will include pain & suffering in my claim for damages.

GoogleThe service and knowledge I've got from Chestertons has been fantastic. Jack Burnett was my agent and he helped me throughout the process of renting the apartment I'm currently in. The viewing was fantastic (he didn't leave out any details), the questions I had about the location and agreement were brilliant, and the help provided during my move was great and replies were swift.
This is my first apartment and I couldn't have asked for a better agent!

GoogleI can highly recommend Chestertons! I have worked with a few letting agencies but this experience really stood out. My agent, Jasmine Birungi went out of her way to answer all of my questions promptly, and supported me throughout the process with a smile. Chestertons operates a portal to upload and store documents, see where you are & what tasks you have, which makes it seamless. The move-in went similarly well, with ample communication on availabilities and all.

TrustpilotChestertons is my local estate agent and they did a fantastic job at selling my property.
Chestertons is my local estate agent and is very familiar with the area. This extensive knowlege allows Chestertons to give an accurate price for properties, give support to vendors and provide informed knowledge to potential buyers. The Staff is very pleasant, approachable and very efficient. The team worked very hard for my sale and was successful. I am very grateful to them and was really impressed with their dedication. The 5 stars is amply justified.
