Not a good experience. My identity picture would not go for hours. Therefore we couldn’t continue with the form. We would have appreciated a way to contact key safe. No luck. Internet was fine the whole time.

I recently applied for a role through Crux, I spoke with Daniel after he looked at my application and he was brilliant, went over a lot of things on the first call before putting me forward, I had a telephone interview and a face to face interview before being offered the role, Daniel was there ever step of the way and always quick to respond, thanks again Daniel!

We have been well informed and looked after, courteous and helpful staff and all tasks have been undertaken promptly. Still early stages but we have sold STC and purchased STC via Starkings and it has been a smooth process. Thank you

From the moment we first made contact to arrange a viewing, we have been blown away by the level of service provided by the whole team. With other viewings already arranged, they managed to squeeze us in and made sure timings worked for us …

I’ve never dealt with a more incompetent referencing agency. They bombarded me with endless emails asking for the same documents over and over, despite me providing everything clearly, payslips, bank statements, even explanations of how my wages were paid. Instead of acknowledging what had already been sent, they just kept repeating the same requests. They also did not seem to grasp the reality that people nowadays often have more than one or two jobs and multiple bank accounts. Why not build a platform or process that accommodates these, instead of wasting people’s time with endless back-and-forth? Rather than picking up the phone to resolve matters quickly, they hide behind email chains, making the process unnecessarily stressful and confusing. Got there eventually because the letting agency chased things up. Absolutely unprofessional and a complete waste of valuable time. Had this experience in November 25

Daniel Franklin was absolute star and made the whole process so easy and smooth, support all the way and most helpful agent ever! Keep up the great work! Highly recommended to contact him if you looking for a job! Great guy and easy to talk to and he perfectly understands what you looking for and will support you in your search 110% Great asset to Crux careers

Sophie was brilliant at keeping us informed and keeping the process moving. Pat took beautiful pictures and showcased the property at its best, so much so the property sold to a lovely family within the first week.

Karolina Jay of Christopher Russell Estate Agents offered a first class service when selling my property. She kept me informed every step of the way and gave me every confidence that I would found a suitable buyer for my property. She's very calm and professional, I'd highly recommend Karolina if you're thinking of selling your home.

It was a pleasure to work with this company. Paul and Jonny made the whole process of selling our flat stress free. They were always on hand to speak to us and did a fantastic job of marketing our property and showing prospective purchases around. They secured a sale within a week . I would definitely recommend their services.

5/5
Christopher Russell have been great. They are a leading expert in Sidcup, which is why we used them. I also felt like they had a personal touch that no other local estate agent could beat. The star employee is Steven Sanford. Not only is he is thoroughly nice chap but he was so attentive! Our property sold quickly and when we offered on a property (being sold with another agent) he helped with the negotiations. When the sellers took the property off of the market, he then worked hard to find a suitable property for us which matched our specific needs. I have absolutely not hesitations in recommending CR and in particular Steven to sell your property. They are a class act!
1/5
There is no option to enter any other income other than from employment so it isn't an accurate reflection of affordability. No report sent to prospective tenant.
5/5
Christopher Russell has been an exemplary Estate Agent that have really proved not all EAs are out for money (like the big chains). These guys have been absolutely fantastic - we offered on a house already listed with them and had planned to use another agent for ours, but as part of the offer negotiation we were convinced to also list with them, Russell himself came to our house for the evaluation, chatted to me as a person, talked me through his team, gave honest feedback and talked strategy to market the property, what a wonderful experience. When offering on our onward property I was communicating with Steph, and I thought if this is what she's like selling a property I absolutely want her on our side for selling ours, she's absolutely fantastic, and post sale we've been communicating with Joe, who's very on top of things, great communicator. I don't plan to move again for a very long time, but I'd recommend these to anyone and everyone.
4/5
I recently applied to rent a property and the referencing process was very lengthy and I must have spent about 4 hours a night for several nights completing paperwork tasks. The Keysafe application was a lot quicker. It stated it would take 4 minutes. However, it took longer than that for me because the Passport photo would not work on my phone and it kept aborting. So in the end I gave up with it and moved on. Also, I think there was something missing because I work two jobs, morning and evening, but the Keysafe application didn't ask me about a second employer. Otherwise overall it was very quick.
5/5
I worked with Daniel Franklin as part of my job application and he was excellent - good communication, he kept me updated at all times during a lengthy process and took the time to wish me well at each stage and check on how things went and if I had any questions. Highly recommended. Excellent service from my perspective as a successful applicant.
