Dont rent from this company

Didn't want to give this so called brilliant estate agents a one star they do not deserve it after the way we have been treated the past 3 years we have been renting from them.My first point is you ring the office for some help if there is a problems and you get told they will give you a ring back but you wait and wait and still no call back.We had a problem with the flooring in our kitchen and got told they would sort it when someone finally came out to have a look he was very surprised and said it was asbestos in the kitchen flooring when they finally decided to address this issue and get new flooring it was 9 months later walking on asbestos in my kitchen.We also asked to get someone to have a look at the bathroom due to there being thick black mould accumulating on our bathroom ceiling when we asked about this we where told to wipe it with bleach and water NOT ACCEPTABLE.And to top of this matter we are now being evicted after being there 3 years but have also heard that we are not the only people this has happened to due to 3 other families have been evicted aswell from these houses they are renting to peopleABSOLUTELY DISGUSTINGhow this company is still running I will never know no respect for tenants atall

In competent sales staff

This salesman was either totally inexperienced, incompetent or did not want our property on their books. Strutt and Parker had valued our property for £250K less than 3 other estate agents. How could you trust this company. To add, the attitude of said salesperson left a lot to be desired. Further more we were approached by Strutt and Parker stating that they had buyers who had missed out on a sales and were waiting to buy our property like ours, which is clearly untrue as when questioned there were none.

Purchasing property in Ashford

We had an excellent experience with this agency, notably Mr. Aaron Turner, no delays in communication and timely response to our requests related to our purchase. Presentation of the property on the website was superb! It was much better than our agent did for selling our property. Highly professional job and satisfied customer! Thank you all guys.

We instructed Gina from Strutt & Parker to sell our apartment. Within 2 weeks the property was sold. Gina then followed up weekly and kept us in the loop with all of the dealings. She was honest and transparent throughout. We highly recommend Gina Simpson to all sellers who want a seamless process from start to finish. Thank you Gina, Thank you Strutt & Parker Cem & Ebru

Excellent service at all times

Victoria Rose was the estate agent for the seller of the house we recently purchased. We were very impressed with her professionalism in managing the transaction, especially given the additional complications because of the pandemic. She kept us informed at all times as to the status of the sale. We very much appreciated how easy she was to communicate with We will definitely recommend her in the future.

St Albans house sale

I sold my house through Harry and Rozanne at Strutt & Parker's St Albans office. The service, professionalism and consideration afforded to me was excellent, especially in light of the various Covid restrictions. The 3D online viewing facility works extremely well in my mind. A good outcome was achieved very quickly. I would not hesitate to recommend S&P. Thank you Harry and Rozanne and not forgetting Daryl-Lee.

Great service from S & P

Thank you so much to Sam and all the team at S&P with their help selling our house.In very challenging circumstances, with assorted restrictions in place throughout 2020, we were kept "in the loop" at all times and provided with very helpful feedback on viewings and the subsequent successful sale in December.Would have no hesitation in recommending S&P for their professional, yet personal, service. Thank you

As a tenant, I would never recommend doing business…

I would never recommend doing business with this company, Strutt & Parker, and its employees. They encourage property owners to evict tenants without any valid reason. There is no UK law that would protect you and your family from being treated as commodities. :-(

Katherine from Harpenden Branch

We recently completed on our house, very shortly after the restrictions were removed with house moves.Moving during the lockdown was very stressful but Katherine, the agent was very professional and efficient. Sally the manager was fully supportive with all the paperwork. Both Katherine and Sally made the whole process very smooth. It’s was a breath of fresh air to be working with a very responsive agents.

Classic estate agent, do the bare minimum

Classic estate agent, do as little for you as possible. Referencing took over a month just to find simple things like landlord references even when we had given the details multiple times. Response time always very slow throughout and tried to charge us extra at the end of our tenancy (technical error was their excuse). Overall, they weren't bad but had very little to do with our rental & only ever wound me up when having to deal with them.

We are delighted with the way Strutt&Parker has smoothly, swiftly and kindly dealt with our purchase. Sally and Michelle have been a pleasure to work with, always ready and able to find an answer to our many questions or a solution where … More

By far the worst experience I have ever…

By far the worst experience I have ever had.Ever since day one Meena from the fullham office has been extremely unhelpful, extremely slow with responding and not only that she gave me loads of drama by making me move in to a apartment were half of the things are broken.Now it has been about a month and I have complained so many times about all the things that have not been working and yet... they don’t give a damn. My dryer the kitchen fan the water pressure the fire place the light in the living room etc. There have been two electricians and plumber guys in my flat and neither of them fixed a damn thing but they did agree that they could have not let me move in to a place that’s half falling apart.I so regret my decision to rent from them.

The smiling voices of reason

Amy and Hamish at the Perth office were always available to help no matter how small a matter. Incredibly grateful to them for all advice and help given during a protracted sale. During a stressful time these were the people who kept us sane!

We would like to mention a massive shout to Gina who has helped us throughout the whole process. We cannot imagine the struggles we’ve could’ve gone through if Gina didn’t support us, she’s so lovely and been great help by making everything so easy in a very professional way. Thank you so much Gina!! 🙏👏👏

Double booked viewing and poor phone manner

Booked to view a house in Harpenden. Received an email and text confirmation. Arrived at property for appointment and was told the slot had been double booked. The agent offered us another time, hours later, which we couldn’t make. We came from out of town to view the property so this was a major inconvenience. Goodness knows how a slot can be double booked when automatic confirmations are generated. Agent very unapologetic and I have found staff on the phone to be apathetic and unhelpful.

Strutt & Parker - great result

Edward Church and the team at Strutt and Parker went the extra mile to keep our house purchase on track. The team were super helpful and always responsive. The result - after just one house viewing and a few months of patience and persistence, we are living in a beautiful house in a great location.

Excellent service from Strutt & Parker...thank you! Petra and team!

I had the pleasure of dealing Petra and her team over the past year through my tenancy with Strutt & Parker. The team were incredibly professional, helpful and efficient. Petra went above and beyond to help me, and I would not hesitate to use Strutt & Parker again for a rental or house purchase, if the opportunity presented itself. Thank you! Kelly G.

Friendly, responsive and informed estate agents. We were buying a house in Harpenden while in the process of moving back from the US so were reliant on a lot of updates by the Strutt and Parker team on the ground over many months. Everything came together seamlessly thanks to their expertise and communication style, with particular thanks to Katherine for orchestrating the whole process!

Love the team at Strutt & Parker. Sally & Michelle helped us sell our long time home and also buy our dream home. They were always on point when needed and always bright, helpful and very much on the ball. If I had to do it all again I'd go to Sally and Michelle first! Can't recommend them enough.

Absolutely terrible so called rental…

Absolutely terrible so called rental agents! Viewed a property to rent was expecting a follow up call (never happened) when I inquired as to the status of the rental and how to proceed was then told ' sorry we are not taking anymore enquiries on the rental' And don't bother calling them as they never answer or return your calls! Thanks for wasting my time I definitely won't enquire about any property up with yourselves and will make sure friends etc don't neither.

S&P did no marketing for us

S&P did no marketing for us, and the team was defensive when we tried to make suggestions as to how to sell best (having had to handle several viewings ourselves at weekends- quite why estate agents don't work at the time when viewers are available remains a mystery to me!). I am sure they are fine selling conventional properties to wealthy buyers, but they didn't seem to have the audience for our mid-market character property. They didn't do anything to generate interest. It was not a happy or successful relationship, so we have moved on.
