Our experience with Knight Frank has been second to none. From the beginning of the process through to completion, the team have been absolutely superb. A HUGE thanks to the absolutely incredible Laura Peet, who has (no exaggeration) been our saviour through the process. Her professionalism, compassion, commitment and kindness has been beyond what we could have hoped for. Thank you, Laura!!!We are especially grateful that you got us in before our baby arrives! A big thanks also to Chica, who has been excellent throughout. We would recommend Knight Frank to anyone looking for an estate agent to partner with.

Very positive experience with Knight Frank Wapping. I dealt with Peter Pietrzak while looking for a new flat to move in. He was friendly, professional and always ready to answer to my emails promptly. I would 100% recommend this agency and its team.

Excellent service from KnightFrank, Clifton

KnightFrank, Clifton, Bristol have just sold our house. Excellent service from Freddie Wright and his team. Extremely happy with the price achieved and a timescale of 11 weeks from beginning of marketing inc viewings/ tendering/sales process. Painless, stress free and would recommend. Impressed.

Dear Paul and Jane, Thank you so much for your kind words, they really do mean a lot to me and the team. It was a pleasure working with you and we are thrilled we managed to achieve a result you are delighted with. All the very best. Freddie and the KF Bristol team.

We had a great experience start to finish with Knight Frank, particularly with Mitchell in the first instance and then Catherine S to take us through to the successful sale of our house. The sale was not straightforward, but Catherine's professionalism and experience kept it on track. One of the things that I liked most was that Catherine was always communicating and giving us updates. Selling a house always pushes the stress levels up, but Catherine's regular updates and constant chasing meant that we never felt out of control. Thanks to all the team and would highly recommend you to anyone.

We received a rather shoddy treatment when trying to buy a house through Knight Frank Dulwich, which made us question this estate agent's code of ethics and professionalism. We originally had our offer on a house, listed by the agent, accepted by a vendor after winning a "closed envelope" bidding process. Unbeknownst to us, subsequently to confirming our purchase and issuing a sales memo, Knight Frank posted an advert to the local Instagram group, promoting "our" house. The post, which is still there, read: "Offers have already been made...to buy this house call (name of the Dulwich office head) ASAP!⁠⁠". Evidently, the advert worked as after another few days we were told that we basically got gazumped - the vendor had accepted a higher offer from a different buyer. Now, we get it that any estate agent has a legal obligation to pass along any offers they receive and the decision to accept a higher offer (i.e. to gazump) is totally up to the vendor. It's also not really the agent's fault that the "closed envelope" bidding process with the "best and final" prices put forward turned out to be an utter farce at the end. It was the agent's decision though at the time to rev up the marketing effort and push the property through a popular Instagram page AFTER having already confirmed the sale to prospective buyers. This is something we have a real problem with, since, in our view this extended sales effort explicitly breaches The Code of Practice for Residential Estate Agents, namely the clause 9e "Continuation of Marketing". I was keen to give the agent the benefit of the doubt, so several months ago I emailed my complaint directly to Knight Frank Dulwich, simply asking them to explain their actions. I received a quick email acknowledging my concerns with the promise of a detailed response to follow shortly. It's now been exactly four months of waiting for this, so the response from the estate agent will probably never come. Now, the purpose of this review is not to scold the agent - I can actually see how prospective sellers can be swayed by the story of the agent going above and beyond their call of duty to source the best price for its clients - even at the expense of riding roughshod over other potential buyers. It is more to warn buyers of some potential issues to keep a close eye on during the bidding process - unfortunately the housing market is turning more and more into "wild west" where even well-known big brand estate agents are getting prone to dubious practices.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Alexander · 27 August 2022

Agent replied

Hi Alex, thank you for writing and we’re very sorry you missed out on this property and for the experience that you’ve had. We’ve messaged you and left a voicemail so hope to hear from you soon, but agree that the current buying process can make it very challenging for all concerned. As you say, we have a duty to put forward every offer and in this instance it meant the client informed us they wished to switch buyers, something we’re very sorry for and actively tried to discourage. For clarity, the buyer who had their offer accepted, entered into the same viewing and ‘best and final’ offer timings that you did and had nothing to do with the social media post. We submitted the post before this process had been completed, but unfortunately the advert only appeared after the offer had been accepted. We believed we were waiting to hear back from you regarding communication and so have followed up again. Some of us have also recently been through this process ourselves so know only too well how stressful moving can be so we’re very sorry that this has been your experience.

We had a fantastic experience selling our property through Knight Frank. Every single agent we dealt with at various stages of selling our property was professional, diligent and extremely helpful. They have an excellent client base as our house was off market but went under offer with just a weekend of viewings. Highly recommend them!

I thoroughly recommend Knight Frank Dulwich based on our experience of selling a property in Dulwich. From the start, the team have been professional, responsive and very tuned in to our needs. They gave us the right expert advice and guidance at the right time. They are calm and assured in all communications which builds confidence all round - and have been a pleasure to deal with throughout the process. I have no doubt we made the right choice choosing them over other agents.
