Totally appalling and useless company

Totally appalling and useless company. Never ending change of managers for one property. This is their tactics, let someone take over to annoy their customers to start all over again. They have absolutely no clue how to communicate, even when you engage with senior directors Richard Benson and Carl Warland, they can't help!. Shannaleigh Batson is a senior manager- not sure how!. Alex Kelly and Linda Foss are totally unhelpful and they just ignore any emails sent out to them. There are so many names to put out there but these are the current ones Everyone at KFH including their account team can't do simple spreadsheet. Please avoid at all cost

Has the best experience buying my first…

Has the best experience buying my first property with Sawan as my mortgage advisor. He made sure I fully understood each step of the process and worked hard to get the best mortgage for me. He was always available when I needed anything and would answer all my questions with a full explanation. Could not have gone to a better mortgage advisor! Thank you Sawan!

Professional and personable approach…

Professional and personable approach when selling our property and sourcing a mortgage for our onward purchase. Since the first meeting and valuation with Shaun our needs have been met with support from the team and especially from Oliver who has been looking after us and our potential buyers. Superb communication with a clam but reassuring and professional approach from Oliver is always appreciated. Also his recommendation to try KFH mortgage services was exactly what we were after and more. Sawan took time to understand our needs and finances to help us secure a mortgage offer which met our needs and then helped us to further reduce the rate as the market changed. His approach and experience is second to none with his colleague Sharon always accessible and communicating important steps for completion and information along the way. Thank you KFH Highgate team for looking after us in terms of our sale. In regards to our onward purchase with KFH Finchley a huge thank you to Shantay for helping us find a property to meet our needs. Your excellent communication and support in discussions, viewings and understanding our situation is very much appreciated.Thank you KFH Finchley team for looking after us in terms of our purchase.

KFH are not a good lettings agent

KFH lettings management are poor, to say the least. Emails & phone calls are ignored and unexplained charges are regularly levied and often incorrect or unjustified. I would absolutely discourage all landlords from employing them, they are really not reliable or helpful.

We want to thank KFH Wimbledon branch

We want to thank KFH Wimbledon branch, especially Maryam Beyzavi, our sales negotiator who did an exceptional job in getting us the highest price in the whole street we lived in. Her record is testimony to her hard work. We were able to move to our dream home in record time. Maryam is very approachable, hardworking& diligent. We highly recommend her as she will deliver results.Thank you to KFH Wimbledon

Drawn out process, but Martin's tenacity and perseverance paid off!

We had a very drawn out process to buy our property, but the tenacity show by the team, especially Martin, got us there.The purchase was part of a chain, although we sold and moved in with family to become chain free. The person at the top of the chain consistently changed their mind on important factors, threatening the purchase of our dream home, however, with a lot of persistence, and no doubt hundreds of calls and emails, we now own a fantastic house!

Demi Maria is amazing

Demi Maria is amazing. She is very sweet and extremely helpful. She follows up and makes sure to be swift. During this stressful time, she communicated effectively which kept us optimistic. She even helped us past working hours. Really would recommend using her

Thanks Euan and team!

Big thanks to Euan and team (in particular our mortgage broker, Sawan) for all of the help and guidance purchasing our first home. Euan kept us super well informed and made sure that all aspects of the sale progressed as planned, coordinating with our solicitor, inspectors, mortgage broker, seller and others. Sawan helped to make sure that we were super well informed on mortgage products and worked hard to make sure we got the best rate possible as interest rates changed quickly between offer acceptance and exchange. We’re very pleased with how things turned out. Thank you!

KFH have left hundreds of residents…

KFH have left hundreds of residents without hot water and heating in one of the buildings they “manage” for weeks in the middle of winter. There has been no urgency in resolving the issue - KFH have required constant chasing and communicated with residents terribly. And they have told lie after lie - one day it’s one issue, that’s not fixed, than it’s another, that’ll be “fixed” tomorrow, now it’s a new issue, repeat, repeat, repeat. Also no apology, or even acknowledgement from anyone senior in the organisation. They haven’t even met with the residents, hundreds of which have been washing in cold water for weeks. They have shown no compassion or care - they haven’t accessed if anyone in the building is vulnerable in any way, and they have ignored the needs of people with incredibly young babies and children. A cruel, callous organisation.

Mortgage Broker - Kevin Hurley

This is the second conveyance that I have worked with Kevin regarding my mortgage. Kevin is very responsive and eager to assist. He was willing to scour the market for cheaper mortgage rates right up to exchange and was always on hand to navigate tricky elements of the process. I will be using him again when my mortgage is up for renewal in 2 years!

Chiswick landlady

I have been a landlady in Chiswick for 10 years and have always used KFH Chiswick to find me tenants. I would particularly like to recommend Rebecca, who is the branch manager, for all her help in securing the most recent family to rent my house. She has acted wisely, respectfully and very promptly, advising thoughtfully with some difficult decisions I had to make. She went the extra mile.

I had the pleasure of working with Deen for my flat purchase. He worked incredibly hard to make sure we completed as scheduled, troubleshooting some very tricky issues at pace. I’d happily go with him again.

I hated my experience with KFH

I hated my experience with KFH Dulwich. I bought a flat through them 6 months ago and forgot to write a review until a friend who is currently selling asked if I recommend them - I don’t. My EA was unresponsive and wouldn’t reply to emails for weeks, refused to let me have a second viewing after having my offer accepted, lied about a few things he had ‘checked’ about the leasehold, and on the day of completion was on leave without telling me so I couldn’t pick up the keys. I’ll never use KFH again.

After months of mismanagement

After months of mismanagement, overcharging, and broken promises, KFH have now gone one step further, quietly deducting unauthorised fees after confirming in writing that no further charges would be made. They re-labelled their management fee as a “4% rent collection fee” for November, despite acknowledging their management role had ceased, and added new “Rent & Legal Protection” charges we never agreed to. These deductions were made after we had made clear in writing that no further fees were to be taken. Although earlier management fees were finally refunded, KFH continue to act in bad faith by introducing new, invented costs. Their conduct has been deceptive, contradictory, and utterly unprofessional. We will continue to post updates until all unauthorised charges have been refunded.

I recently used KFH for my mortgage application. I was very pleased with their service, particularly from their Mortgage Consultant, Lucas Matta. Throughout the entire process, Lucas was incredibly helpful, professional, explained every step in detail, and was always available to answer any questions we had. He made what can be a very stressful experience completely painless.If you're looking for a mortgage broker, I highly recommend Lucas Matta at KFH!

Property Management at it’s best

My Property Manager Nick at KFH is excellent, he always goes over and above to offer help and support to me as a landlord. Which in itself is a rare occurrence in this day and age but especially appreciated as part of a large company. I could not recommend anyone more highly if you are looking to entrust your property to a professional.

KFH mortgage advisor - Kevin Hurley

Kevin was a really great mortgage advisor and the whole process was super smooth. It was a very stress-free way to manage the finance side of the move, and when our original purchase fell through he and Heather managed all the admin for the address change etc. he was easily reachable and responsive to our emails, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend his services.

Great service from Earlsfield KFH

We had a brilliant experience selling our flat with Earlsfield KFH. Rebecca and her team, in particular Tom and Natalia, were fantastic from start to finish. They were professional and hard working, arranging a huge number of viewings from the moment the flat was on the market which enabled us to find a buyer really quickly. Even when the first sale fell through, they continued to work really hard to find a second buyer in record time to ensure we didn’t lose our onward purchase. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough and wouldn’t hesitate to use them again

Property sold through KFH Blackheath

Selling my property through KFH Blackheath felt seamless. Lynne was extremely supportive and attentive throughout ensuring communications were consistent between all parties involved. My first buyer fell through but Lynne remained positive and within a week we had another buyer due to her proactiveness and persistence. I would definitely recommend KFH Blackheath to others looking to sell their property. Thanks to Lynne and the wider team, I really appreciate all the support you provided throughout the process.

Great experience remortgaging through KFH

Great experience remortgaging through KFH. Very quick and efficient process to take me through my options and secure a new deal. It’s now the third time I’ve remortgaged through them. All for free following my initial mortgage. Sawan is a great broker, very knowledgeable and friendly and prepared to go to the extra mile to help you. Would definitely recommend.
