Dealt with Carmen who was absolutely fantastic. Very experienced and managed our expectations very well. Went out of her way to do virtual viewings and in person viewing when we were back in the country. Helped us through every process and settling in.

Worst experience with renting

I have rented with Chestertons and I wouldn't do it again nor recommend it to anyone. The post renting process/ client support is close torture, with lengthy times, lack of reply, and no solutions - e.g., our house pipes were broken for the full 1st month of renting, and we needed to call Chestertons every day until we had a solution for the problem because no one there was able to solve it. This happened with other aspects of the tenancy.The organization is super bureaucratic and not flexible, we tried to change tenants - a common process, amending the contract - at the end of the 1st year of tenancy, and Chestertons refused to amend, allow for sublet or any solution, justifying it with "this is not our process". Additionally also refused to do a short-term agreement, because, and I quote - "our minimum is 6 months" - even though it fitted both the tenants' and landlord's needs.I study with 500 other people and never heard about an experience that was so bad with a renting agency

Was not told there was a primary school right next to my studio, and there's screaming non stop from 9am-4pm Mondays to Fridays. Been trying to talk to my agent about it, but he's ignored me for the past two weeks. Great service. Still not sure how to get this sorted.Edit: I was liasing with Cosmo, and he finally responded after two weeks, saying there's nothing he can do because he does not manage the property. He also said that the only way I can leave is if I pay the rent up until the break clause.

My experience with Akikur

My experience with Akikur, was excellent and professional, it was a seamless experience as a first time landlords, Akikur provided absolute confidence from start to finish while maintaining efficient communication between ourselves, the service has been incredibly smooth, Akikur viewed my flat before the renovation was finished and brought prospective tenants round the following weekend. They were all referenced and ready to move in as soon as the flat was ready only 3 weeks later so no need for marketing on this occasion, very impressed.

Chesterton Camdens - Truly Terrible

Poor management, untrustworthiness and rudeness - stay far away if you want your property sold in time, or your calls ever answered!I started off with high hopes when I originally met the team as they seemed friendly and engaged. However, once I agreed to market with them the service started to decline. I never got a proper comparison of the different buyers’ offers and do not feel I was in a position to make an informed choice, but rather pushed into what was easiest for them.After the offer was accepted, they completely dropped the ball in monitoring the process. The buyer’s solicitor didn’t start the legal process for 6+ weeks and Chesterton’s didn’t pick up on this or notify me, it seemed they were only aware of this when I pointed it out to them. They frequently made promises about ways they intended to better manage the process but then would not follow through and often outright ignored specific requests. As a result of their mismanagement there was a 6 week lag between when I was ready to exchange on my onwards purchase and when exchange took place on my sale, even though I started the process of the purchase after the sale. This of course caused a lot of stress to myself and the onwards seller and I often felt the chain was at risk of collapsing. Because of their mismanagement, I estimate i spent easily 1 hour / day in the final weeks of the process. The team frequently misled me or omitted information. By the end, it was clear to me that i couldn’t trust them. A few of the team were disrespectful, rude and dismissive to me on the phone and on email. I at times had to revert to emails following calls because the agent refused to listen to me and just cut me off / spoke over me throughout.

Fantastic customer care…

We have had the opportunity to work with Andrew Z and from the first introduction it has been an absolute pleasure. He made our search for an appropriate property very seamless. He went out of his way to find the perfect property for our needs. As we are moving from another country we had specific needs and Andrew took all of that into consideration when finding our perfect place. We can’t thank him and the rest of the staff at Chestertons enough for their help! I would recommend them over every other agency!

For the first time we’ve had a very positive experience with moving to a new rental property. This is thanks to Natalie Ewan’s hard work! She’s a breath of fresh air and I’m so pleased she’s our point of contact for our new flat. Natalie was very considerate, supportive and went above and beyond to ensure we had a good experience and moved in as smoothly as possible. Thank you very much!
