I’ve had a fantastic experience with Humphrey & Co, they have been incredibly responsive and attentive to any issues that arise. Their maintenance team is prompt, efficient, and always fixes things right the first time. What really sets them apart is their proactive approach to property management. They clearly care about their tenants and the upkeep of their properties. A special thanks to Aneta she’s lovely and very helpful!

I have recently began renting a lovely property with h and co and they have honestly been great, we did have some very slight teething issues with repairs, but once I’d chatted to them, they have enlisted handymen where needed and exterminators for the silverfish and we have a very clear way forward. My experience is that this is a good company. I have been quite frank with them about the issues I found on moving in, things we all missed that the previous tenants had hidden with furniture etc and honestly their response has been amazing. Within a few days I’ve already had someone out to treat the silverfish, with two more treatments planned, and all other issues will be being sorted from this weekend onwards which is within my first two weeks of moving in! I wanted to say as well, with private agents, they are often governed by what the landlord is willing to pay for. I have rented long term in the local area and had a lot worse experiences with other letting agencies, so having been able to have this kind of positive and proactive experience with H and Co, has really been like night and day. They are all just really nice people working in a market that is full of landlords (not my current one thankfully!) who IMO, don’t want to spend money and the agencies are at the behest of the landlord. Out of every company I have rented from in London in the last 12 years including in Walthamstow, this has been the most positive experience I have had, to date: Other companies I have rented through have been neglectful in their approach when it came to fixing repairs, sometimes leaving me waiting over a year to get a hole in the floor sorted, or draughty windows fixed, mice infestations etc - so I’m really confident that h and co are on their game in that respect, as has been my experience so far. Reassuringly so. Also regarding my viewing - Larissa was so lovely, super honest and helpful - a real nice experience all in all and I’m happy that I chose H and Co. Thank you :)

We had a really poor experience with Humphrey & Co. As a household we felt that Darren the manager and Aneta our estate agent consistently let us down throughout our tenancy. We arrived to find the property in poor condition; there was rubbish littered across the front garden/door, evidence of black mould and damp present throughout, one of the bedrooms was listed on the floor plan as much larger than the small reality, a poor quality ‘clean’ had been done as the place was handed over to us dirty and unkempt. During the tenancy, the Humphrey & Co team consistently ignored our messages and reports, taking a large chunk of the tenancy to action anything we reported when we initially moved in. We experienced Aneta to be quite rude, disorganised and at times gas lighting, as she suggested we had caused pre-existing damage to the property ourselves. Humphrey & Co seemed to constantly have the back of the landlord, wanting to keep her on side for their business, without ever really considering our health during the tenancy as we were breathing in the black mould present throughout the property. When they finally did something to address the mould, they hired contractors that were inappropriate with my partner, causing her to feel unsafe and uncomfortable while she was home alone. Although I reported this to Humphrey and Co, no action was taken. The work done was shoddy, and the mould continued to return. It was a really horrible experience. There were times where rather than addressing our issues Darren and Aneta would offer us to end our tenancy. It felt like they knew that due to the housing crisis in London, they could easily get other tenants in to the property. Therefore, they only cared about receiving rent. We never felt that Darren and Aneta or Humphrey and Co valued us as tenants or were particularly interested in listening to us or improving things during our stay. Sadly our experience of Humphrey and Co was a particularly sinister group of cowboy London estate agents that only care about money and keeping the landlords sweet. To make things worse, they tried to charge us for an extortionate deep clean at the end of the tenancy. Despite us working hard to leave the place in excellent condition, especially considering how we received it. Fortunately, after a lengthy process with mydeposits, our deposit protector supported us that this was not a fair request from Humphrey & Co and we got our full deposit back. Humphrey & Co probably do this with all tenants banking on them not raising a dispute with their deposit protector. I know it’s hard with the housing crisis but I really recommend you avoid this lot as best you can. Having rented with several different estate agents in London, this was by far the worst experience the four of us have ever had. They simply do not care about you. And if you have significant issues in your property, your life will be a misery.

Dear Charlie Fyfe-Williams, We set a high standard for ourselves, and we’re so sorry to hear this was not met in your interaction with our business. Throughout your tenancy we always ensured any reported disrepairs were communicated promptly to the Landlord. Unfortunately, the rubbish left by the previous tenants was littered across the front garden the night before your move in which was due to a potential fox and this was out of our control. Once reported we arranged for the rubbish to be removed. Any mould which was from the result of condensation from the previous tenants was treated and repainted. We established as per our email correspondence the room size was correct on the listing and due to the shape of the room your measurements were incorrect. The property was professionally cleaned and we advised if you was unhappy with the standard of the clean they would re-attend. When a potential issue of damp and mould is raised, we take the matter very serious and ensure prompt action is taken as a matter of urgency. Our aim is to always identify the root cause and the severity of the issue and in particular urgency taken when health concerns have been raised or the occupants of the property have known vulnerabilities and are at a greater health risk from the harms of damp and mould. In regards to Humphrey & Co hiring the contractors. Landlords can choose their own contractors to proceed with any required works which was the case in this matter, we always vet and ensure the relevant insurance is in place when a third party contractor is instructed by a landlord to safeguard our tenants. But we cannot be responsible for an individual’s behaviour, nevertheless as we did at the time, we are sincerely sorry on their behalf. The Landlord also apologised at the time but this was out of our control. The matter was reported to the company as a formal complaint. We have a duty of care for all of our tenants and our ethos is to ensure our tenants are happy at all times to the best of our ability. We always aim to deliver a great experience, and we are devastated when we don’t meet expectations. Thanks for taking the time to bring this to our attention. We will use the feedback to make us better and to ensure this doesn’t happen again We use a third party company to complete our inventory check-in/out’s to ensure they are not biased. Who you can liaise with directly. As a result we are guided by the reports to determine any proposed deductions. Again we’re so sorry to hear your expectation was not met in your interaction with our business. Kind regards Humphrey & Co

HORRIBLE! TERRIBLE SERVICE! Don't know where the good reviews are coming from but this is a horrible agency. I am a tenant and I was forced to live in an apartment with rats for a year to which they did not respond to. They are just a bunch of lairs who hide flaws in the property and then claim that the tenant has broken something. They are not even giving me the required documents to raise a dispute for a fair judgement of the deposit. They will just try to fool you. The landlord was also frustrated with their services so not sure which party they are providing a good service to. There were actual hole in the property through which the rats came in. And I had to remove 5 dead rats in the first week of moving in. I spend hundreds to get the rat issue resolved and the agency did not even visit once to resolve it. For a YEAR I kept calling and notifying them. No matter how good the property looks. Do not do business with them.

Any reported disrepairs are reported to the Landlord in a timely manner. Thereafter the Landlord opted to liaise with you directly to resolve the infestation. We employ a third party company to complete check-in/out's. So they are not biased. Any proposed deductions are highlighted with pictures. The relevant documents were provided to allow you to dispute any proposed deductions from your deposit. We cannot be responsible for discrepancies within a property but ensure any disrepairs are reported to the Landlord to resolve accordingly.

I’ve been using Humphrey & Co Estates to find rooms to rent, and Darren has been amazing throughout the process. He really took the time to understand what I was looking for in terms of budget, location, and preferences, and always came back with great options that suited me. He was patient, professional, and made sure everything went smoothly, from arranging viewings to handling paperwork. I never felt rushed or pressured, and he was always available to answer any questions. I highly recommend Darren and the team at Humphrey & Co Estates!

I live abroad and I own several properties in the UK. I have been using Humphrey and Co Estates for more than ten years to find suitable tenants and also to inform me regularly about the UK rules and regulations. My main point of contact is Dareen, who is an excellent and exceptional real estate agent/manager who is on top of every issue. I am also equally satisfied with the level of professionalism, support, and efficiency I get from the rest of the team. The flow of information in the office is incredible, and they are all very friendly and helpful. They all know the rules of the game, and their dedication to what they do is absolutely amazing. I am not the only one who is satisfied with their service, but my tenants are equally happy with the fair treatment they receive from every one of the team members. I have recommended Humphrey and Co to friends and family in the past, who have gained excellent services like I have. I wish this unique agent the best of luck for the future. Martha

My experience with this company was direct and always fast. They are a serious company and take responsibility for what they do. We discussed the problems that were there directly and solved the problems easily. Every time I wrote to them I received an immediate response. What I would object to would be for them to find a serious company to work with for the repairs of the houses they rent. Those who have been and painted the house I live in will receive one star but they as a company will still have 5 stars from me. I recommend this company with confidence, I lived in a house rented from them for 5 years!

A terrific experience, was made to feel very welcome and the entire staff, especially Dogan, were extremely patient with my problems with some of the online forms and questionnaires, as well as the fact that I had to go to Canada for nearly three weeks in the middle of the application. I would recommend Humphrey & Co to anyone wanting to buy or sell a property or to find or offer a letting.

My husband and I tried to rent a property through this agency. Initially, the person who helped us and was in charge of carrying out our entire process was very friendly and attentive. Suddenly our agent informed us that the property we were interested in no longer had its initial value and whether there would be any problems for us. As the added value was not much, we informed them that everything was fine. They sent a reference check link and we filled it in with all the necessary information and were honest and loyal to everything they told us, including that my husband had VAT, which was something that helped us a lot in our financial adjustment process. Shortly after we completed the entire process of filling out the information, my husband contacted our agent and asked if there would be any problem, as he had to inform about IVA, which until then we didn't know if this would affect the process. The agent asked why we didn't inform her sooner. So we said, “It wasn't reported because they just weren't asked about it in the interview.” - But we were sincere when reporting all this information in the verification link. And even so, they continued the process to rent the property, they even requested full payment of the deposit and we did so. Not only did we agree to pay the extra rent, but we also made some good offers. This entire process, which should have lasted days, lasted 1 month and in the end they rejected it. OK, it's okay. Despite the delay, we understand the entire situation regarding IVA. My husband requested a refund which would take up to 7 days, it has been two weeks. We later learned that by not having informed about IVA, the agency would have the right to keep part of the deposit, something that for us is not certain if all this information was passed on in the check and reference link. Since my husband and I are already so tired of this whole situation, we decided to let it go, we just wanted to get the rest of our deposit back. My husband called because we need a refund of the deposit to put on another property. And spoke to the manager who asked for 24 hours. It's been 48 hours and nothing. We kept calling today, 10/18/24, and they said it would be in the account at 5pm, but it is now 8pm. I don't know what else we should do to resolve this situation. 😞

Dear Cíntia Criss Caballero, We are sorry to hear you was not satisfied with our service. When offers are made to Landlords by prospective Tenants we need to have all of the information at that stage and if there is any missing information then this can be classified as providing misleading information. Subsequently will affect the acceptance of an offer. Resulting in either a counter offer or declining the offer. Any refunds approved are refunded within 7 days unless further security checks need to be completed. Such as two way authentication verification to ensure the correct customer is refunded and to comply with compliance in addition prevent fraud. Nevertheless the payment was refunded.

I had an issue in one of the properties I was renting. I called Humprey and Co and spoke to one of the agents Malachi Robinson and he was extremely helpful. He arranged for a surveyor to view the property and was very helpful in his advice in providing a solution to the problem. He gave me a very detailed response as to how to proceed once the surveyor had been in touch and I was very satisfied with the excellent service received. I would highly recommend Malachi Robinson as he was very efficient and effective in dealing with the matter and possessed and demonstrated a high level of knowledge and experience in his field/industry.
