TrustpilotProfessional Efficient Service
I was in the rental market and contacted numerous estate agents. Almost all took my details, what I was looking for and said 'would get back to me'. None did, except Reiss-Samuels Not only did they get back to me but literally within days took me on a tour of 6 properties that matched the description of what I was looking for, and answered all the questions I had. I was very impressed with the service offered and would recommend them to anyone.

We've moved into a property in Greenwich that is managed by RSA number of repairs were required to the property that were left from the previous tenants, and Emma was quick to provide support in getting repairmen out to deal with it.She has been responsive and pro-active, and very pleasant to converse with.As a whole, the property is in good condition and the move in process has been smoothMy only negative is that the referencing process is very Intrusive although on the positive note we have a lovely little period conversion with original fireplace which is what I always wantedThank you Emma

I would definitely recommend Emma Collins, This was the first time i rented a apartment Very Knowledgeable and explained the process in a way that definitely showed her expertise in Letting properties.Once I paid a booking deposit she was very quick at responding to any emails I had.The day I signed the contract I went to the office and she once again spent time with me going through the whole assured shorthold tenancy agreement I can't thank you enough for all the hard work, dedication and the time you spent in founding my perfect place, so quickly. Definitely I will suggest you to anyone I know who is wanting to rent a apartment in isle of dogs , most certainly 5 star review for Emma at Reiss-Samuels

TrustpilotREVIEW REISS-SAMUELS SATNAM
Review Reiss-Samuels.Satnam and his team offer a comprehensive and thorough service that I have not seen from any other agent in all my years renting. Phone calls and emails are returned in a timely manner and the entire experience is hassle-free and quite perfect.I have rented many properties over the years moving around London due to work placement. Dealing with Reiss-Samuels has by far been the best.I had a a tight deadline to move in as my previous offer fell through due to a leak. The referencing company fcc paragon were ok i would not say they are the quickest reference company out there.Overall Fantastic experience Thank you Gavin

TrustpilotUncaring, unprofessional, arrogant and lazy....and that's just a start!
The question is where do I start?Having dealt with around a dozen letting and real estate agents I can say this small little outfit is by far the worst and in fact probably one of the worst companies I have had to deal with from any industry.They manage what can be quite a complex process yet have absolutely no interest in either doing any work themselves or assisting their clients within the process. The concept of client service is entire alien to them.The Admin Manager is almost a caricature of the lazy, unprofessional, disinterested, disorganised and believe it or not, vindictive administration nightmare from the movies, yet she exists in real life!Upon making a complaint to the Managing Director not only was I met with the same uncaring indifference, but to punish me for daring to make a complaint the aforementioned Admin Manager then made the decision to strike me off as a guarantor for a 4 person let, suggesting I clearly didn't want to go through with it, which was a completely fabricated conclusion. In case you think it was merely my fault or lack of attention to detail. 2 Other parties within this 4 person let, also fell afoul of the admin demon who enjoyed nothing more than simply pointing out small print within long contracts and poorly written emails. There was no question of helping, we were the enemy of course!But it gets better, when we finally did get the chance to speak to the owner of the property we discovered that many of the issues we encountered were the making of the agent and not the owner.It may be that all of us were imbeciles with unrealistic expectations or it may be that Reiss Samuels is the worst real estate agency in the UK.AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!!!!!If you are the owner you will limit your clientele and ultimately reduce your return on your investment.If you are the buyer/renter you will turn what should be an exciting process into a complex, nightmarish experience that will spoil your enjoyment of your new home.P.S. The only reason I waited 2 months to write this review was because the tenants are now paying the landlord directly (I was notified today) and I was worried that if I wrote it before then, it might put my daughter's place in the house in jeopardy. That probably speaks more than anything about the way Reiss Samuels operates.

GoogleAs you can see by the other 1 star reviews, the agent here is extremely unprofessional. From the very beginning of our interaction, the agent was aggressive and condescending. I had heard from other tenants that he was aggressive but didn't believe so until i had a call and was shocked at how rudely I was spoken to, with no regard for basic customer service or respect. The entire conversation was distressing, and I felt as though I was being attacked rather than assisted. I would strongly advise others to avoid dealing with this agent if you value being treated with dignity and professionalism.

Moving is a stressful time for anyone I liked how Reiss-Samuels really looked after us although at one point we felt we would lose the property due to references not completing in time.The only negative point I would say is Reiss-Samuels expect references to be completed within the set time frame and are very strict on the time frames given but overall I had to give 5 starsImogen

We are six Greenwich University Students that moved into a property in Ambassador Square E14, Reiss Samuels was very helpful. This was the first time we rented a property.We now dealing directly with the landlord Mr Rakesh Patel and his maintenance man Grant they are very efficient and helpful with all repairs. They are very responsive and quick on all repairs.We had a very bad experience living in Student Halls in Greenwich whereby it took several weeks or months for a repair to be dealt with.Several of our friends are renting properties in Tower Hamlets Docklands with Mr Rakesh Patel.We have recommended other fellow students to rent to Mr Rakesh Patel.

During these unprecedented times I was looking for a reputable agency who were able to source a suitable property for my daughter. I was referred to Sat through a colleague. After speaking with Satnam he quickly put my mind at ease and assured me there would be suitable properties available. He made the whole experience seamless and my daughter moved in last week. I’m very pleased with their efficiency and would highly recommend Reiss Samuels to anyone who is looking for a credible & professional agent. My daughter is over the moon with her accommodation. Thank you to the Reiss Samuels team!

TrustpilotI scored Reiss-Samuels excellent for…
I scored Reiss-Samuels excellent for the following reasons:
- prospective tenant -second to none, considerate of our needs, thorough explanations of all conditions etc, showed us properties very well tailored to the information we provided, arrived a few minutes late to the appointment when there office is a around the corner from the apartment
- agreeing tenancy - as soon as we'd chosen where we wanted to rent and told Reiss-Samuels they were very understanding of our needs for signing etc, easy to meet at their office and sort all details, detailed support throughout again. Contract signing on Sunday really helped us out, strict clauses in the contract irrelevant to where we live
- Check in - couldn't have been easier! Made easy by clerk - picking up keys etc all went very smoothly
Contracting in Canary Wharf and if my contract is renewed I without a doubt, continue letting with Reiss-Samuels
i put in two offers with other companies they obviously were not accepted i was very surprised to see how to rent guide or a draft contract was never supplied like come on all this is law
A lady called Emma from Reiss-Samuels emailed all t/c before securing this place, she is helpful

GoogleVery unprofessional. I have never in my life experienced such disgraceful interactions with a supposedly professional company. During calls with Satnam Gill he has been incredibly patronising, aggressive, intimidating, shouting down the phone, will not allow me to speak, just continually talks over me, certainly does not listen to what I say then twists what I do. He threatened to write an e mail to a group of other parents of students saying I had said something that I had not, I told him not to do this but he did it anyway. At the end of the last call I had with him - he shouted that I was a "..f****** b****.." twice at which point I disconnected and sent him an e mail clarifying after that, I did not want any form of communication from him directly any more - however within minutes there were 2 further e mails. My child has been threatened with legal action for defamation after writing a negative review following their experiences. He seems to threaten this often looking at other 1 star reviews across the platforms (Trust Pilot, Allagents ). In another 1 star review on Google - Satnam opens his response with "All calls are recorded" therefore my experiences will be fully verifiable in those recordings and look forward to receiving unedited copies of those calls. I am not telling anyone to not use this company. I am writing a true account of my experience and my honest opinions. Maybe if Satnam takes on board the negative reviews regarding his conduct, apologises and changes rather than just threatening legal action against anyone who dares to write an account of their experience, then they may stop coming.

TrustpilotSadly, not a good experience...
I have to unfortunately write a negative review for Reiss Samuels, due to the treatment we have received from the Managing Director.Trying to get clarification about the property my daughter was about to rent, I had to deal with the MD. They say it is never the problem that is the problem, but the attitude of how the problem is handled. The MD showed little self-control and handled all questions and requests with the utmost annoyance, arrogance, and disrespect.He did reply to every single email but was evasive and extremely economical in his responses. I believe he is convinced because he is replying to emails he is delivering excellent service and being cooperative but he ignores the fact that by continuously referring back to THE document that generated the uncertainties in the first place is not helpful, answering only about 20% of the questions leaving all the other uncertainties unanswered, changing the topic by asking something totally different, fabricated conversations and by changing his tune is sadly not service at all and definitely not cooperative.His way of handling not understandable phrases and rental procedures in the contract made us feel not looked after and realised that we could not trust how he would react/behave if there would be a ‘real’ problem in the year of rent. The risk was just too high to take. It became evident that customer (the tenants) service is not his strength and definitely not in his interest.Due to Reiss Samuels’ Managing Director, we have decided last minute not to go through with the rental and therefore he is solemnly responsible for his client (the landlord) to have lost trustworthy tenants that would have looked after his property with the utmost care.

Dear Stefan & Xenia Braun,You were never a tenant or a guarantor however you were a guardian of a individual who was due to move into a property.The issue here is when individuals get involved like yourself who are not apart of the tenancy the procedure can be complicated and due to GDPR in this country we are not unable to discuss all this with you.The way to have dealt with the situation as we advised you to do so is that your daughter sends us a email confirming we can discuss the tenancy with you over the phone or email1 week before the start of the tenancy You mentioned how you want the property repainted throughout due to the amount of rent your daughter was paying You also demanded we open a pay pal account just for you to make payments easier for yourself You also wanted to make a payment plan for the move in costAfter speaking to the other prospective tenants and a parent of one of the other prospective tenants in the group it was clear that the individuals including your daughter who were due to pay the last 6 months rent in advance decided not to proceed as they did not wish to pay that amount of money even though they had booked the property several months earlier and were told the full procedure Your daughter and the other prospective tenant had their own agenda hence why they decided to go their separate ways and rent a 2 bedroom and not rent another 5 bedroom house Your comments are incorrect. We wish you well
