TrustpilotTerrible property management team
Terrible property management team. Already more than a month and a half I'm having the issue that I can not use the bath in my house because the bath tap needs to be replaced. I have been calling and chasing them almost every week twice via email and phone calls, but still experiencing the same issue. First of all, they had more than a week crash system when they could not access their emails and phone line (i still do not understand why their problems it's supposed to be my concern), After which the property manager left for annual leave which extended everything for another week. Finally, i reached the main manager, and after they send finally someone to fix it, the engineer came but he did not know the information from the first inspection regarding which part exactly should be replaced. In the end, the contractors went for the holidays, and Chesterton told me that they can not do anything with this. As I have a separate shower in a flat there is no emergency situation. However, i have a small child and the apartment is really cold in the winter so a proper bath for me is essential. Plus, I am paying regularly for the apartment 2 bed 2 BATH ( second month i can not use the facilities property). After the holidays i called first thing ( but before i have been promised that someone will call me and update me)^ which obviously did not happen, after chasing them another week, I am still having the same issues and no one gives the calls back with an update, as well as no one replies on my emails.I would never recommend deal with a property management office in this company, they do not care about your issues and barely knows how to deal with customer care. Really bad communication between the members of the staff. WOULD NEVER USE THEIR SERVICES FOR ANY CLIENTS, AND OBVIOUSLY NOT FOR YOUR PERSONAL USE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Anna, we are sorry that you have needed to raise this review. We understand that you have spoken with one of our Managers this afternoon and that the issue relates to a tap in one of the two bathrooms in your flat. The tap required dismantling due to its specification before a quote could be obtained. We accept that there has been a delay due to the Christmas break but the Landlord has now approved the necessary works. As agreed, we will provide a further update to you at the start of next week. Should you have any further queries, please let us know.

TrustpilotGreat property management
Risida manages my apartments at Chestertons currently. She is incredibly efficient, friendly and brilliant at giving me advice on issues relating the property and the tenants. She’s clearly very capable and hope she will stay as the property manager for my apartments for a very long time.

GoogleAggressive agent, tell you your property is worth more than it is to get you to sign with them, then constantly force you to reduce the price.
There is no consistency between what they say one conversation to the next and when called out on it they used 4 letter words. They didn’t sell my property but a smaller agent was able to.

GoogleThese guys are amazing!
Our flat had been on the market with other agents for a really long time. We swapped to Chestertons and we got sales agreed within a week and completion in 2 months!
Communication has been great throughout the whole process with weekly if not more often catch-ups. Also, the price they sold it for, more than made up their higher fee!
Could not recommend them enough!

TrustpilotSpamming forever
It has been almost a year, 5+ people told that they removed my email address from their list, but I can see that this was just a lie and they only wait for a few months instead of removing the email address and then send emails again. Don't even give your mail email address, get a temporary one and use that instead

Agent replied · 23 October 2024
Updated reply: Hi Barış, thank you for confirming your details. After looking into this further, we can see that you have now been added to our exclusion lists and should no longer receive further communications from us. You had previously been linked to a short let in 2023 and were registered as an applicant with us up until 13th April. This is why you would have received some emails last week. Original reply: Hi Baris, we're sorry to hear you are still receiving emails. In order for us to look into this, we have sent you a request via Trustpilot to confirm your email address. As soon as we receive this, we can check our systems to find out why you are still receiving communications from us and remove this where applicable.

Chestertons - "You don't even deserve this 1 star"I had terrible experience with this letting agency.Please find below timelines of experience which made our life stressful.Chestertons posted ad for property on 4th Oct.1)Holding deposit was transferred for renting apt. on 6th Oct.2)Referencing started on 7th Oct and was completed by 14th Oct.3)Tenancy agreement was created on 15th Nov.They took 1 month just to create tenancy agreement!!!!4)Tenancy agreement was signed by us on 17th Nov.5)Remaining deposit and 1st month rent was transferred on 18th Nov.6)They made sure that we did not visit apartment twice . We were following up for apartment viewing but they couldn’t give us appointment from 31st Oct till 18th Nov.We received call from Melis on 19th Nov. mentioning that "Even though you have passed referencing checks , we cannot rent this property to you"7)They had our approx 5000£.
Amruta · 8 December 2022
Agent replied · 23 October 2024
Hi Amruta, we are sorry to hear of your complaint. We have reviewed the situation with the relevant team and whilst we understand you were eager to get the contract, there are certain elements and documentation required from both parties before we can complete the contracts.We're aware that you were booked in to view the property twice once you arrived in the country so this request was not ignored, however, on both occasions the current tenant cancelled due to her child being unwell. This was unfortunately out of our control as we cannot enter the property without the current tenant's consent.The current tenants advised towards the very end of their tenancy that they would not be able to vacate as they were unable to find alternative accommodation. Melis contacted you as soon as we got this news and provided evidence when you requested it, to confirm the current tenant's situation. Due to the laws in the UK, we cannot do anything to speed up the vacation process until this has gone through the courts. Melis offered the closest comparable properties that we had on the market at that time to try and assist you as we did not want to leave you without options.Our teams have checked our accounts and we can see your holding deposit was returned to you on the 21st of November and the balance was refunded on the 23rd of November.Whilst we appreciate this has been less than ideal for you and Deepak, the situation is beyond our control.
