FacebookBen Robertson was the only estate agent that we came across that explained everything we needed to know about renting our first property. As my husband was from Bali I was concerned that It would affect our renting prospects.. Other estate agents Haven’t been very helpful compared to Ben. You have put our mind at rest and we are no longer stressed about the renting process. Look forward to working with you in the next couple of months. Thanks again!

GoogleI'm in the process to rent a studio flat and Ryan has been amazingly helpful! He's been promtly in touch with me for anything I needed, He was available to show me the flat a second time (even after the working time) and helped me find solutions to some space issues. He listened to my requirements and sorted them out with the landlord quickly and efficiently. My flat hunting, which seemed difficult and stressful due to short time, was made easy and fast! I've been very very happy so far and I'm sure I will also be after everything is officially finalised. Thank you very much!

GoogleI recently sold my apartment in East Molesey and Duncan Canning at Chancellors was most helpful. Chancellors had previously done a valuation and kept in touch in a very professional way and because of this I decided to use them when I eventually decided to sell. It was, thanks to Duncan, a very easy and efficient process and all is now going through and I am moving on 30th October, 2015. Thanks Duncan, you did a great job and even managed to keep me calm.

GoogleThe sale of my property would have been an extremely stressful experience if not for the support of Gareth and later Josh at Chancellors. Unfortunately I was on a roller coaster ride with potential buyers but Gareth was always there to support me and was always on top of his game. What especially impressed me was his professional attitude, his constant communication with me, his general support and most importantly his ability to produce 5 bids after one single day of viewing. Gareth definitely had my best interest at heart and I never felt like it was just about the sale.
In the later stages Josh communicated with me regarding the sale and I was also very impressed with his constant communication, his professionalism and his push to get the exchange completed as soon as possible for both my and the buyers behalf. Without Josh the completion date may have been a couple weeks later.
Going forward I would ONLY use Chancellors, having compared them to all the other agencies I used in the past. They definitely deserve the 5 star rating on all accounts.

GoogleI chose Chancellors because Duncan, who valued my property, was open and honest about the chances of sale and value. The team at Surbiton including Ryan, were really good at getting viewings, passing on information and generally keeping me going when it looked like the market was slowing down.
Although my sale turned out to be a bit more protracted than expected, the Chancellors team were with me every step of the way. Particularly Karen at the Conveyancing Team offices who spoke to me virtually every day until exchange and completion.
I can't recommend Chancellors highly enough.

GoogleFrom the very first moment I walked through the door I was impressed by the professionalism, kindness and courtesy of everyone in the office. Josh was endlessly patient and good humoured when showing me properties and he and his team made the whole process as seamless as possible.
During the purchase period I was kept fully briefed on developments, through phone calls and emails, which was very reassuring for me as the purchaser.
I would certainly recommend Josh and the team at Chancellors and wouldn't hesitate to use them again. Excellent service!

GoogleI bought a house and sold my flat in Surbiton via Chancellors using them for the first time in 2014 and the whole experience was fantastic. From the initial consultation with Gareth and then the handling of both deals by Josh the team was totally professional and reliable. Josh was great at communicating and I never had to chase for an update. I wouldn't hesitate recommending Chancellors, and would use them again if I move in the future. I have moved a lot of times - 10 in total now - and Chancellors have been by far and away my best experience of any estate agent I have ever used.

FacebookThe worst ever agency I've ever deal with.Absolute unprofessional and unkind attitude.For six months contract i have around 200 useless emails and still can't get my deposit back after 1 month and a half.
Never get a property trough Chancellors agency.
There is forum group with around 200 Bulgarian families around the area and i keep advising them never use this agency.Unprofessional continuous failure to do all task.And it's not just me 90% unhappy.What an agency why you are still on the market how?

FacebookWe just moved out of a property managed by chancellors, the agency and most of the staff working there are extremely incapable, downright unhelpful, with the exception of Isabelle Smyth - Senior Property Manager, so this 5 star goes to her and her only. She remained kind, polite and professional at all situations, was super helpful and where all others failed went out of her way to assist us with our queries. She deserves the recognition, if it wasn't for her we would have had a much worse experience than we did. Thanks Isabelle!

GoogleTerrible.
We called to book in a viewing for property in Surbiton, my details were taken on the call and the time/date was confirmed. Drove 25 minutes to the viewing and there was no one there, we tried to call the office but were instead transferred to the customer service office who said they would try to get a message to the branch. We left after waiting for 30 minutes. An hour later they finally called us back to say that the property was no longer available.
Complete waste of time.

FacebookI've been more than happy with the way that Isabelle Jakovljevic has been managing the rental of my property since she took over a few months ago. If I have a query or a question she comes back to me quickly always following up with email confirmation of our conversation and I couldn't be happier that the management of my property is being looked after in this way. Isabelle is always pleasant and courteous and nothing appears to be too much trouble for her however small. Excellent service!

FacebookI'm giving 1 star, because 0 stars is not available. We moved out of our rented property 2 months ago, after a 5 year tenancy, of which we had numerous problems with Chancellors. Starting the day before we moved in, it never improved and got worse with each year, to the point I would get dizzy and light headed upon seeing an email from them knowing that it would turn into a saga to be resolved. To really top it all off, we are still battling with them over the fees they have deducted from our deposit, of which one fee we have already paid and proven we have paid by supplying bank statements. They don't care and have ignored it. Simon Butt, Manager of Thameside Property Management has been completely unhelpful and has failed to supply us with details of our account and copy invoices which we requested a month ago and have requested every week since. We suspect his role is to stall us until we are no longer able to raise a claim via the TDS, which is why we want these invoices.
A disgusting company to deal with, AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
When we were looking to buy our current house, we didn't even look at adverts marketed with Chancellors as couldn't bear to deal with them again.
Feb 2018: Just wanted to update this to say we received back the money taken from our deposit we were disputing with no real explanation why they gave in. I can only assume because they had no evidence of the ‘invoices’ they were referencing, and my persistence paid off. Result for us, as I was close to giving up - it had become about the principle though to me and I NEEDED to have the last word after the years of incompetence we experienced from them.
