It was always going to be difficult selling the family home after the death of my Father but Neil and Richard were both very compassionate and extremely helpful. They had a cash buyer within a week and kept me informed at every stage, and even provided information before our solicitor had let me know! I would have no hesitation in recommending this company and would like to thank them for all their help!

Tom From chipping Norton was easy to deal with, friendly and most of all not pushy!!!! He helped us along the way and made it a lot easier to go through the moving process. Would recommend Tom as well as other members of staff!

I should like to thank the team at Chancellors, in particular David Pratt, who was enormously helpful and proactive in progressing the prompt sale of my house. During the delays that arose, David tirelessly pushed for an early result, finding the solutions to several problems against the odds! He is hard working, polite and a pleasure to work with. The Team at Chancellors were conscientous and proactive right from the start. Many thanks for your service.

I moved into a flat recently and chancellors lied to me about a number of things, my flat is £750 a month plus bills. They said there was heating and gas connected and they lied, multiple times in writing, they also forgot to write in tenancy that they gave my neighbours upstairs a key to my property to access my flat whilst I'm out, they lied about this over and over again until the neighbours actually locked me in my own flat because they 'arent comfortable with my background and me being on benefits' (one of the male students was caught peering through my window as I changed and weirdly chancellors have tricked me and caused me to be completely suicidal due to what they have done to me, I got this place in seek of refuge and chancellors EXPLOITED me.

We had a viewing booked on a property in chalgrove 2 weeks ago - we had arranged childcare and were on our way to the viewing to then receive a phone call from the branch saying the viewing was cancelled as the property was already under offer and had been for over 2 weeks - when I asked why they accepted our viewing request they couldn’t give me an answer. Over the next couple of days I phoned up multiple times about visiting other properties they were listing, and was always told “I’ll get someone to call you back”. Never heard anything. Would absolutely avoid this estate agency. Totally unreliable and unprofessional and wasted lots of our time. Luckily we’ve found a gorgeous new home with another agency

Didn’t have the best experience with these agents was interested in a property that has been withdrawn! But was interested before the property was withdrawn but i called them countless of times to arrange a viewing with no luck ??

The worst estate agents ever! And there’s been some runners up. Chancellors are the best at being this bad. Failed to provide video of property in the beginning. We ended up moving in without seeing the property. No end of badgering emails. As a tenant, if your employer moves your payday, ‘Chancellors don’t do bridging payments’ Instead you owe them at the end of the tenancy and will be in arrears until then as ‘you are contractually obliged’ to pay on that date. Chancellors reply to emails typically 3 weeks after being badgered themselves. Utterly unhelpful.

Jayne Morris - Jayne first dealt with the letting of my house when she worked in Kington Office but then she moved to Chancellors head office but I am very pleased she is still looking after my property as I am more than happy with how professional and courteous Jayne is. Any matter arising with regards to my property is always dealt with immediately and I know I can rely on Jayne.

We dealt solely with David Pratt who was professional, helpful and prompt throughout the course of us purchasing our property. We were new to the area and he guided us to which areas were ideal and what they offered. Nothing was too much trouble and he was always polite and eager to ensure everything was going through smoothly. We would recommend Chancellors particularly David to anyone looking for a property in the area.

My review is specific to the lightwater branch. Bad mannered, unprofessional and incompetent are the words I would use to describe the staff. They found me buyers back in June who have still not signed their contracts along with the buyer at the bottom of the chain. There are 4 others in the chain above and we have all signed and are ready to exchange contracts. The managers have not replied to the last 2 emails I sent asking them to get this resolved. The whole process since signing up with them has been far from satisfactory. Wrong price on the house, wrong details and a complete disregard for me as a customer. The manager, in particular, seems to think it is beneath her to deal with customers once they have signed up. I have never dealt with a company before who refuse to answer emails from their customers. My job involved dealing with estate agents and in 15 years I never came across behaviour like this. I wish I never signed up with them.

As a landlord who uses the services for Chancellors for Property Management ; the services provided by South East property Management team has been excellent. The services of Ms Isabelle Jakovljevic in particular has been splendid. Her services with respect to my Property Management has been great. I have been with Chancellors now for over 5 years and my overall experience has been very good. Radhika Vinod & Vinod Ramaseshan

Lucy Harcup has been very accommodating with my request. She was also very prompt in getting back to me. Appreciated her efforts! Hopefully would be able to find a property suitable for us soon. Thanks.

This company seem to think they operate by different standards than other estate and letting agents. Had a bad experience when purchasing our home through them as they would not take our house off of the market until the moment we exchanged. And now trying to rent a property through them, they delayed getting back to me for so long the house I was interested in has been let and they wouldn't consider me anyway as I am reliant on my ex husband to pay the rent as I am a stay at home mum with 2 small kids despite other companies being happy with him as a guarantor. Would never deal with this company again.

AVOID. Absolutely terrible service. 4 days before I was due to move in to a property which I had already paid a deposit and first month’s rent for, as well as having signed a contract, I was told the property had been sold so I could no longer move in. I was never even informed that the property was up for sale. This was over a week ago and despite phoning every day and speaking to 6 or 7 different people at Chancellors I have still not been refunded any of my money!

My sister put a deposit and first months rent of £1130 on a house to rent (also signed a contract) , 4 days before she was going to move in they told her the property had sold, they did not inform her the property was even for sale. They still haven’t refunded her any of her money which they said they would in 3-5 working days (now been well over that) She has now had to use all of her months wages for the deposit and first months rent on another property (with a decent estate agent) and has informed them of this and they just keep fobbing her off! Absolutely disgusting company! AVOID

Absolutely useless in property management. I’m not sure what service I’m getting for the astronomical fee they’re charging but I’m starting to think I can do a better job managing the property myself from Australia. It’s taken Chancellors 3 months to get a gas safety certificate passed and with poor communication to contractors, it’s costing me more money because guys turn around up to the property “without the right part” for the job. High staff turnover is also a sign of the rotten culture. Avoid this firm like the plague.

Very unreliable. Have been waiting since this morning for a call back for a key code to a new property for my uncle to move into. We have spoken to various employees who have promised to be in contact but to no avail. We are currently sat outside his now previous property with removal vans packed and ready to go to the new property. He had to vacate his property by 12pm today he is 72 and now homeless. We have visited the office in Brecon and that is also closed. We are disgusted with the service or lack of that has or in this case not been provided.

Good experience! Your staff Rebecca Joel is excellent. She is professional, respectful and very helpful in ensuring that everything goes well from the agreement preparation to the day we move in to the new accomodation. Great service!

I would like to give a special thanks to Chenge Dziya for making my move so much easier. Her professionalism is second to none and has always managed to help me with queries I've had since moving into the property. Chenge has always managed to help me really quickly and has always gotten back to me within the promised time frame. A big thank you for all if your help.

o whom it may concern, I am not used to giving this kind of review or writing at all because I believe that we can all make mistakes. But I think there are mistakes that cannot be made 3 times. A month and a few days ago exactly I started to fill out the documentation to acquire a house with Chancellors. They called me very early every day and they were always very aware of what I needed. It took me a week to fill out the form and send all the documentation. The landlord approved us and only our references were missing. They sent us the contract for 25th June and we are supposed to have the house that day. They called me and told me that at 11:30 am on the 25th we would meet at the house to hand over the keys. On Tuesday 23rd June they emailed me to tell me that unfortunately they have to delay the day of moving because we did not have the complete references. We accept that and delay the day to 1st July. On July 1st we were told that it was impossible to move in because the Landlord had withdrawn the application due to our references and 3 days later an email arrived saying that our references are correct. On July 2nd the girl from the agency called me and told me that she has another house that we do not need anything else. That we do not have to worry at all and that she was going to take care of everything and we could move on 9th July. As we were supposed to move on 25th June. We paid rent and deposit on 22nd June and from that day everything was delayed. We thought because they were just putting everything in order but each time we were delaying and delaying more and more. We are on July 7 and the only thing I have done is try to call them and speak to the person in charge but they tell me that at the moment they cannot speak with me. Another very relevant point is that Lucinda Sturla the girl from the agency no longer works there since July 4 and now the manager was Olivia. I am trying to communicate with Olivia from that same day, July 4 and it is IMPOSSIBLE. I spoke to the manager, John and he says he can't do anything because he doesn't have the letting department. What type of company does this to its clients who HAVE ALREADY PAID AN INCOME AND A DEPOSIT OF MORE THAN 2,600.00 POUNDS? The MASSIVE PROBLEM is that at the moment I am on the street because I am supposed to sign a contract for June 25 and then for July 1 and THERE IS NO ANSWER. I left my house on the 25th because the contract ended. This agency takes money from you and does not care about you. This is unheard of and disrespectful to us. Now I am trying to get my money back for two days and I don't get a response. Finally I decided to take legal action and go to lawyers because it seems disrespectful to me.
