Having dealt with the East Dulwich team at Winkworths for many years, I have always found them to be way more professional than any other agent I have ever dealt with and recommend them unreservedly. No drama comes as standard and is very valuable to me.

Brilliant Nicola Keane. East Dulwich Branch

I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to Nicola for her invaluable assistance throughout the entire process of selling our property. Your role as the Agent/intermediary and your dedication to coordinating between the solicitors, buyers, and us were truly commendable.I understand that at times you had to be assertive and pushy to ensure the progress of a complicated sale like this. However, I genuinely believe that this level of determination was exactly what was needed to successfully navigate the challenges and bring this transaction to a close.I am incredibly grateful for your hard work, unwavering dedication, and attention to detail. Your efforts played a vital role in ensuring a smooth and efficient process. Additionally, I would like to extend my appreciation for introducing us to the buyers. It turned out to be an excellent match, and we are thrilled with the outcome.Your professionalism, expertise and sense of humour have truly made a positive impact on our experience. Your commitment to going above and beyond is greatly appreciated. I would be more than happy to write a recommendation for you to showcase the exceptional service you have provided.Once again, thank you for everything you have done for our family. It has been an absolute pleasure working with you, and I wish you continued success in your future endeavours.Best regards,Linda Hartley

Professional from start to finish

Professional from start to finish. Shilpa was understanding of our needs and patient with my elderly parents, and caring of our home of 43 years. Shilpa kept us up to date at all times and we never felt pressured or pressurised. Nishi did most of the viewings and again courteous, punctual and understanding. Would definitely recommend and use again. Huge thank you from us all.

Happy with our experience

My partner and I are first time buyers, and we’re just about to complete on our first flat. Patrick, Alex and Nicola have overseen the whole process and we’re really happy with the way our purchase has been dealt with. We weren’t really expecting to feel grateful to our seller’s estate agents, but they have helped us navigate all the twists and turns fairly and transparently. They were also very helpful when our solicitors were being less than efficient (!) - an email to the Winkworth team was often a quick and easy way to sort out any issues. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again (not that you have a choice as a buyer, though - if only…!).

My partner and I recently bought a house in East Dulwich through Winkworth. They couldn't have been more helpful. From start to finish, they were supportive, transparent, and thoroughly efficient. Particular mentions to Alex, Archie and Harry, were all excellent - thank you!

Having found a property in SE15 that was ideally located and suited for our rental needs, I am grateful to Claire for her assistance in negotiating the necessary steps. Her communications were clear and timely as she guided us through the process, and she responded quickly and helpfully to my queries.

For four weeks the branch staff thinks it's ok to have mice and all the associated issues running round the flat and still no date for when the people will be coming to sort out the issue, very poor. Am sure they wouldn't want this in their own homes but it's ok for people that pay their salaries

Guildford Estate agent winkworth

Guildford Estate agent winkworth. Got shown a property today with my partner and 8 month old baby today. I'm offended you would even think that a filthy student property would be suitable for mt family anyway! Was absolutely disguted that you can show property's in these conditions like that and think its acceptable (and in a pandemic you should be sanitising everything down!) When tenants leave if you think showing a dirty property with dirt and filth is acceptable it is not! Trying to sell a property to me in such disgusting conditions and thinking its okay to show people shows what type of estate agents you would have been if we were to have gone with you. Asked to be taken off the books would not recommend thank god we curved this! Will be telling everyone to avoid this estate agent. Your reviews don't look great anyway even though you deleted my Google one!

I'm waiting to hear back from Winkworth…

I'm waiting to hear back from Winkworth Kensal Rise lettings about why I'm being contacted by the utility provider to pay bills on an account I assumed was closed on my moving out. As a landlord, I pay Winkworths the 'Fully Managed Fee', a level of service for which they state they will inform the utility providers of the new tenants details. My credit rating is at risk as I have ignored emails from the utility provider on the basis that I have paid all bills before the tenant moved in. What is the point in 'informing the utility providers of your new tenants details' if the account isn't closed? I await a response. Very disappointed at what is either negligence or very misleading terms of service (if 'informing' providers achieves nothing of value to me as a client.)

Jonny · 14 January 2021

Agent replied · 24 October 2024

Morning Jonny. I believe that Aaron from Winkworth Kensal Rise has been in touch with you personally regarding the problems you are having with your utility providers. Unfortunately, due to GDPR, quite often providers will not take instructions from a third party or speak with the agent as a representative of the Landlord. Aaron has again attempted to liaise with the utility provider on your behalf however they have confirmed they are unable to do this as you have not given permission. This is extremely frustrating for you as a Landlord and Winkworth as your agents, however our hands are tied on this occasion.

Thanks to Finlay Cook for taking my sale to completion. However, it was a team effort by everyone in the Kensal Rise office. Everyone was very pro-active in marketing my property and keeping me updated on viewings and feedback. Once the sale was agreed, Finlay made sure everything went through and addressed any questions from both me and the buyer. Thank you

Last-Minute Viewing Cancellation

We traveled almost 2 hours for a booked house viewing, only to have it canceled last minute. This lack of coordination raises doubts about the agency's reliability. Agents should excel at arranging viewings, and this experience fell short of expectations. Hope for improved communication and better service in the future.

Typical response from a company when…

Typical response from a company when you have received poor service. Why would I want to contact their office after receiving a call from 'George' who basically tried to lie his way out of the situation. Exactly how do they think they can resolve the situation - the property has now been sold! I also need to mention that in the phone call received after my original post he stated ' I had to inform the vendor that you are in a chain of 9' - this is why the vendor decided to go with someone else - this is a blatant lie as I checked with our agent who provided me of details of our chain which consist of 5!! So not only did he lie to the vendor but also by not allowing the final bids by 10am next day (his idea!!) he deprived the vendor of the 5k offer we were going to make over the maximum stated price because the place was worth it - thats just us what about the other bidders - who knows what they could have offered given the level of interest in this property (which in itself questions their ability to accurately price the property) - given that they had had 10 viewings in two days and the vendors asked that no more viewing be permitted as they wanted to make a decision. My own estate agent was appalled at the service we had received as he considered it completely unprofessional - but then this is a franchise operation - no different than dealing with Mc Donalds!! I'm done with this now!

Appalling unprofessional service from…

Appalling unprofessional service from Poringland branch. Saw a property that was priced with a guide price. Liked the property so offered full asking price only to be told that there were another 4 viewings that day and that an offer had been made but all offers were to be put to the buyer by 10am following day when a decision would be made. Agent insisted he would call to get our final offer at 9.45 and that reading between the lines they were basically playing all buyers to see if they could up the price!. Gave us personal email to contact him if we had any queries regarding the property that we wanted answered before 10am final bid cut off - sent email - NOT EVEN BEEN READ! - N0 CALL!! at 9.45 waited until 11am asked for agent only to be told he was not even in the office!! 10 minutes later get a call from the office (not the agent we had dealt with but someone else) only to be told that the house had gone to another buyer - didn't seem to understand why we were so angry at not being told anything or even receiving the call for final offer. Doubt if we would even have received a call or got any information if we hadn't had chased them. Absolutely appalling unprofessional service by amatures - wouldn't touch them with a barge pole.

One of the worst agency… DONT WASTE YOUR TIME.

I would say one of the worst agency that I worked with. Exteremly unprofessional. They don't even call you back until you called them many times. I have seen a flat with them and I was the first one that seen the flat. I was there after 2 hours they post on rightmove. (This is what they said to me) I have seen flat 2 times and happy to pay deposit straight away. They told me that they will let me know after checking with lanlord. By the way his name was Lewis. He didn't even bother to call me that flat is gone because they have another offer accepted. Very unprofessional. I wouldn't suggest anyone this agency. Don't waste your time.

Unprofessional and disengaged

I bought a flat with Winkworth and decided to try to sell my property through them a few months ago. They seemed quite engaged, up to the stage where I actually signed the sole agent agreement. The timelines they gave me for listing it were not met and clearly just a lie. The one paragraph description of the flat they wrote was laughable - it didn't in any way describe my flat (highlighting aspects such as hard wood flooring and Nest which I do NOT have) and was full of typos - clearly something pulled together in less than 5 minutes. The initial brochure included only pictures of the living room until I called this out. Once on the market, there was basically no interaction at all, no feedback on any viewing, nothing at all. I asked them to remove the listing 2 weeks ago and even that seems like an unmanageable task. I'm waiting until the agreement expires to re-list with someone more professional.

We had a difficult sale mostly due to difficult solicitors but Guy and team went over and beyond to make it happen. Couldn't recommend enough. Happy we didn't go for an online broker as sale would surely have fallen through. Fair pricing. thanks.

Winkworth leigh on sea

Winkworth leigh on sea. A bunch of liars and con artists. We rented a flat and asked for a break down of the fees we had to pay and also for the landlords details which were missing. The staff nodded and smiled and yes we will get those for you as we signed the contract and got our keys. 5 minutes later when we asked for them again they said we couldn't have them. Blatantly lied to pur faces. They take so long to respond to problems with the flat and didnt fix the big issues. The place obviously had mould which had been painted over as it appeared after a few weeks of moving but lied when asked about it and later said they think it might have had in the past but they were unaware. They also turn up well over half hour later to an appointment they made to inspect the property upon leaving. Their store was a 8 minute walk to the flat and when we called to see where the agent was, she hadn't left yet despite being 20 mins late already. Avoid these useless people at all costs.It's funny how a company only wants to help you after you leave them an honest bad review. I'm not wasting anymore time responding to such an awful company.

Utter jokers

Utter jokers. They made it so difficult for me when mentioning I wanted to view some properties near Victoria train station. An Indian guy in his early '40s asked me to come to their office, after asking all the irrelevant questions on the planet then showed me a rubbish council flat. I was feeling a bit sick from his car fumes and asked if we could meet at the next property while I was walking. I have never seen him ever since: he simply disappeared and did not even answer the phone. I was too embarrassed to call the office and complain. I gave up on this company, they are just bullies asking to pay for just about everything while they laugh all the way to the bank thinking if you are a single woman with an 'exotic' accent you must be having a low IQ too. Bunch of jokers to be avoided.
