Winkworth were exceptional during the sale of our flat.Guy in particular was tenacious and helpful in pushing the buyers' solicitors, despite them being particularly challenging, and managing all the communications with the chain and our solicitor. He was instrumental in getting the sale and our onward purchase across the line and we owe him a debt of gratitude!

Jenny made what could have been a very stressful situation of moving out of our home (that is being refurbished) into a rental property very straight forward; taking care of admin on our behalf and liaising with the landlord to cover all aspects of our move and so that we had what we needed when we moved in. I would definitely recommend Jenny in particular and also the Winkworth for the service that they offer.

A predatory scam. Do not use if a student or young.

AVOID WINKWORTH. I am still annoyed months after moving out. I was in a rolling contract, paid up my last month and moved out with plenty of notice - all fine. Out of the blue they then tried to hold me against a contract I never signed/didn't exist and though I agreed to pay if they could present one (said several times) they refused to present one despite hilariously agreeing at the start one could not be found. This went on for several weeks with back and forth phone calls and emails that went round in circles just pushing for me to pay a further 6 months I was never signed to. My mum's partner called in once. Said exact same thing id said. Phone call lasted 5 minutes. And they dropped it, apologised through him and he sent on the message to me that it would be dropped. I was livid. It felt not only predatory and an utter violation but it felt misogynistic on top of it. I am a Senior in my own job so understand associates have rules and policies to follow (and approached Winkworth also how I like to be approached with such complaints) but they completely made things up as they went along, changing stories over and over to try and get me to pay whilst refusing to provide a signed document to say so.Before moving in my friend told me her Winkworth experience which was very similar. I wish I had listened. This is clearly something they have done before and will probably do again in the hopes someone new to renting will just pay out. Vile.

Winkworths Barnes: Amateurish and incompetent selling agents

Amateurish and incompetent in the extreme. As sole agents during 4 months of the peak house-buying season, Winkworths Barnes failed to sell our house despite interested buyers, all other properties at similar price-point being snapped up and low stock levels. Childish communicators with zero transaction-management skills. Even after we took our house off the market and formally terminated their agency, they continued to display our house on their website marked "under offer" - when the house was not under offer, they were not our agent and we had not consented to their using a photo of our property for marketing purposes. If you are looking for ineffectual and bombastic service, this is the firm for you.

I have had a very positive experience with Winkworth Tooting Estate Agents. Marika has been extremely helpful in supporting us moving in to our rental property. She is very responsive and went out of her way to accommodate us. I have no concerns and would highly recommend!

5 Stars For Fabian

I would highly recommend Fabian at Winkworth. He was great to work with, made everything so easy. Communication was fantastic. If I was to rent again I most definitely use Fabian.

Wandsworth branch

Tooting branchNothing but good things to say about Thomas from the Tooting Branch. He was great from the first viewing to getting us to exchange. He was proactive, super responsive the whole time, managed our expectations really well throughout the journey and got all parties to hit the timelines. Buying a house is a very anxiety enducing experience but having someone who you can chat to easily and quickly on whatsapp rather than email was great. If you are buying or selling a house with the wandsworth branch - highly highly recommend working with Thomas.

Terrible neglective managment!!!! We have been renting with them for a…

We have been renting with them for a year and a half, always on time with our responsibilities, always updating the managment for any issues with the lift or anything regarding the property. We had an emergency on the 31st of December where the boiler stop working and we were left completely with no warm water and a boiler that for some reason was leaking water! We were provided with emergency contacts which we tried contacting for about 3 days before we get an answer from them refusing to come and check the boiler as they were pretty sure they could not do anything due to the lack of parts( which they didn’t even know from the phone where and what exactly was the issue). After 4 days without warm water a guy came to check and nothing was done. In less words after all managment department was informed with the emergency, as we are talking about month January, even if they send people, who never treated our situation ,with a toddler at home, as emergency, did nothing. We were left for almost a month with no warm water and with the excuse that parts and manufacturers where difficult to find, with no other option and no reasonable deduction of the monthly rent, no help and no options with a toddler the most cold weather of the year!!! And the only response was that they are trying and we can have warm water for a family of 3 by using kettles!!! The boiler was fixed temporarily but still not permanently and we are at the middle of February. The worst managment we have ever faced and now they are asking us to leave with no excuse or reason. I am not willing to deal with this agency anymore and I hope I will never have to deal with such a neglective and awfull situation where they left a family with a young child in the most cold weather of the year for a month without heated water!!! I feel ashamed and disrespected but I have to make this review in order other peiple to be aware!

Shocking customer experience today…

Shocking customer experience today that’s left me out of pocket but really disappointed more than anything.Had a viewing arranged for 11am with Winkworth for a lovely two bedroom apartment in Wandsworth, called on Thursday to arrange a viewing and confirmed with letting agency,After driving all the way from wales I had a phone call 20 mins before the viewing to let me know the “owners daughter was extreamly Ill and we couldn’t view” completely understandable however frustrating as we’d left wales at 7am to make sure we could view at the arranged time.We thought we’d check out the area and take a look at the outside of the property anyway to avoid a wasted trip.To our surprise when we arrived at the property we saw the agent outside the showing someone else around.I understand it’s a competitive market however the agency knew we were travelling down from Wales, and decided to show someone else around the property despite us booking days in advance! Such poor.It’s a mad market at the moment however we have a considerable budget and have been left with a bitter taste in our mouth and wouldn’t recommend Winkworth to anyoneAlso to use a completely made up ill daughter as an excuse is pretty terrible, especially when it seems to be a new build with no one living in it

A very good stress free experience, Thomas made everything an easy process, through being a strong communicator and keeping me up to date with everything, felt very supportive and he was happy to chat and explain anything at the drop of a hat. Thank you!

THANK YOU!

THANK YOU! This is hands down the best experience I have had with an Estate Agent. Shilpa was instrumental in getting the sale through before before the stamp duty break ended and walked us through every step, answering any questions we raised. Shilpa & the team made the experience an easy one and I am forever grateful for that. I will be recommending Winkworth to friends!

Paying top dollar to live in a damp and disgusting property!

Currently I am paying for a 'two' bedroom property. Unfortunately due to a severe leak I reported in 08/21 one of the two bedrooms is completely unusable due to the reoccurring leaks, and the severe damp as a result.It is now 29/10/21 almost 3 months later and the problem still has not been resolved. I reported the issue for the third time on 05/10/21 but as of 21/10/21 the Landlord seemed to think the issue was solved.In the meantime I have been paying the full rental price for a two bedroom property, yet for 3 months I will have been unable to use a significant part of the property - a younger family member now has no bedroom, yet I still have to pay for it. I have asked the landlord/agent to consider a temporary rental reduction due to the above reason however this has been flat out refused on multiple occasions.Despite many emails, phone calls, photo and video evidence I shared with Winkworth, the landlord still appeared to think the issue was solved. This tells me that Winkworth must be very selective on what information they choose to pass on to the landlord, or the landlord doesn't mind dragging on this issue for longer, and thus incurring significantly higher remediation costs.This issue was first reported in August, it is now nearly November, and the fact that it has taken this long, and the issue is still not resolved will have undoubtedly incurred additional costs to tenant (My possessions now have mould on them and I now have to find another bedroom) and landlord (Has many more remedial issues to deal with).My next step will be to report all of this, making complaints to the Property Redress Scheme and seeking legal advice.

Super Service at Winkworth Long Melford

A huge thank you to Mark Wilkins at Winkworth Long Melford. He epitomises the term "Gentleman". He was always available and nothing was too much trouble. Our house sold very quickly and Mark then worked with us to progress to completion day. I would certainly recommend Winkworth but also believe that Mark's care and attention was the key to our successful sale. Thank you Mark.

Thomas was engaging, professional and very positive from the beginning to the end of the sale and purchase. Buying and selling can be stressful but the process was made so much easier by his prompt responses and good advice. We would thoroughly recommend his services and be happy to work with him again at any time.

Professional from start to finish

Professional from start to finish. Shilpa was understanding of our needs and patient with my elderly parents, and caring of our home of 43 years. Shilpa kept us up to date at all times and we never felt pressured or pressurised. Nishi did most of the viewings and again courteous, punctual and understanding. Would definitely recommend and use again. Huge thank you from us all.

Happy with our experience

My partner and I are first time buyers, and we’re just about to complete on our first flat. Patrick, Alex and Nicola have overseen the whole process and we’re really happy with the way our purchase has been dealt with. We weren’t really expecting to feel grateful to our seller’s estate agents, but they have helped us navigate all the twists and turns fairly and transparently. They were also very helpful when our solicitors were being less than efficient (!) - an email to the Winkworth team was often a quick and easy way to sort out any issues. We wouldn’t hesitate to use them again (not that you have a choice as a buyer, though - if only…!).

I have been working as a repairs contractor for Winkworth for may years, lately things have been so easy to sort for their tenants with work orders and tenant Communication going smoothly with the help of Garry Connor. Hopefully many more years of happy renters and trades people to come.

We have brought a house in tooting with Connor Marney from Winkworth. It has been a very positive experience, finding them to be much more professional than other agents. Connor Marney has been very helpful in chasing and ensuring timescales were met!

For four weeks the branch staff thinks it's ok to have mice and all the associated issues running round the flat and still no date for when the people will be coming to sort out the issue, very poor. Am sure they wouldn't want this in their own homes but it's ok for people that pay their salaries

Guildford Estate agent winkworth

Guildford Estate agent winkworth. Got shown a property today with my partner and 8 month old baby today. I'm offended you would even think that a filthy student property would be suitable for mt family anyway! Was absolutely disguted that you can show property's in these conditions like that and think its acceptable (and in a pandemic you should be sanitising everything down!) When tenants leave if you think showing a dirty property with dirt and filth is acceptable it is not! Trying to sell a property to me in such disgusting conditions and thinking its okay to show people shows what type of estate agents you would have been if we were to have gone with you. Asked to be taken off the books would not recommend thank god we curved this! Will be telling everyone to avoid this estate agent. Your reviews don't look great anyway even though you deleted my Google one!

I'm waiting to hear back from Winkworth…

I'm waiting to hear back from Winkworth Kensal Rise lettings about why I'm being contacted by the utility provider to pay bills on an account I assumed was closed on my moving out. As a landlord, I pay Winkworths the 'Fully Managed Fee', a level of service for which they state they will inform the utility providers of the new tenants details. My credit rating is at risk as I have ignored emails from the utility provider on the basis that I have paid all bills before the tenant moved in. What is the point in 'informing the utility providers of your new tenants details' if the account isn't closed? I await a response. Very disappointed at what is either negligence or very misleading terms of service (if 'informing' providers achieves nothing of value to me as a client.)
