Trustpilot4.5/5 premium, but with minor flaws
Berkeley has a strong reputation for offering premium properties, and that is largely my experience with their Glasswater Locks project. Most aspects were delivered against the top standard. There were some minor flaws that stopped me from giving Berkeley a full five stars, however. The dishwasher door catches the plinth and makes noise when opening and closing, and the backing board under the bathroom sink was not fitted at the time of completion. Costumer service is responsive and keeps me updated throughout, but the dishwasher door issue has not been fully resolved. That said, the overall experience with Berkeley is great.

TrustpilotWoodberry Down is no longer safe
Woodberry Down is not safe! Crime is now so bad that walking outside puts you at risk of theft or stabbing, any time of day, any day. Even cars are being stolen from the street. Berkeley don’t care nor have they done anything to address the rising crime rates. It’s not safe here anymore. The local gangs have also recently started entering the buildings, so we are not even safe inside. Where is the accountability?

Recently purchased a new home with Berkeley and they were very attentive and thorough during the process. Yuki was particularly helpful in coordinating the completion of the property and key-handover despite my being in-and-out of the country. Any snags were also handled very promptly thanks to Dan on the customer service team.

TrustpilotA Positive Experience, with One Suggestion for Greater Transparency
I am very happy with the overall experience I had purchasing my flat with Berkeley Group. The Sales Team were extremely helpful and supportive from the very beginning, throughout the purchase and up until completion. Following completion, the Customer Care Team have also been very helpful and responsive. Both teams did their best to make our purchase and move as smooth and straightforward as possible, and we really appreciate their support throughout the process.

I’m really pleased with my new Berkeley home. The quality of workmanship is excellent, with great attention to detail and a really high standard of finish throughout. Everything feels well built and carefully finished, and I’m delighted with the quality of my new home. I would happily recommend Berkeley Homes. With particular thanks to the lovely Sales Team Nicola, Frances and Seema and Customer Service, Alex and Tom for making the journey easier!

TrustpilotBerkeley homes are proposing to build…
Berkeley homes are proposing to build an extremely large housing estate on Greenbelt in Bromley. The plans are out now and the houses and apartments are in the main cheap looking, featureless with large blocks of flats looking more like borstals of the olden days than homes. Very disappointed and not what I would have expected. It looks like materials are scarce as they were just after the war and the homes reflect this. I wouldn’t buy a Berkeley Home - they look cheap and nasty!

TrustpilotLocal democracy wins
Berkley application for building on the Gas holders site Motspur Park was rejected last night by Kingston council , a proposal for high rise blocks completely inappropriate to the location . Berkeley showed a complete arrogance and disrespect for the community and local residents

TrustpilotThe Berkley Group Flat Purchase
Working with The Berkley Group whilst purchasing my 1 bed apartment at the Horlicks Factory was an exceptional experience from start to finish, and much of that is thanks to the incredible people I had the privilege of working alongside, Izzy, Ellie, Saied, and Cameron.

TrustpilotYou dont own your house if you buy from Berkeley
This builder is unethical and ridiculous. I bought a house in Hartland village and my transfer contract plan clearly states a part as our demise without any limitations. But they will ricdulously said it is not your demise and I cannot use that spot for come home improvements. They then use a terms that we need their approval over everything even if that it is unrelated to the demise reason. So basically you are only a rent tentnant under their unfair terms and their unprofessional staff that call a stag a horse. Dont buy from them and be cheated!

I had a very good experience with the Customer Service Team, especially with Linda Sesay, for the completion on a new flat Plumstead Lombard Square Berkeley Homes development. It was a stress free process where I was kept informed with all the steps in a year long period from when I booked the flat & the completion.

The sales process is very focussed on cash buyers and there is pressure to complete purchases quickly. We needed to sell our existing property before we could proceed to completion. This inevitably took a few weeks - although was achieved quickly given the circumstances. Despite being aware of this the sales team were constantly presssing us for updates which we found very stressful.

TrustpilotCustomer service, high quality development and community space
Recently purchased a new home from Berkeley Homes like any home purchase there are always bumps along the way but the overall experience was very positive. The property is finished to a very high standard, the care and attention to detail, beautifully designed outside spaces added to the customer experience was outstanding. I would highly recommend them for excellent finish, stylish builds and with a community feel

TrustpilotAlthough there was a delay in completion, overall experience is good
Although there was a delay in the completion due to COVID, I am satisfied with the service provided by the Sales Team, especially John, who constantly updated me about the construction status. As an overseas buyer, I was guided through the procedures smoothly, and the handover was seamless. Additionally, I am particularly pleased with the design of the houses and the environment of the area. Finally, I would like to thank Rob for his follow up on the issues after the completion.

TrustpilotGeneral comment…
New experience for me that personal account was given that I can be informed about the construction progress. John is also great that he is a responsible relationship manager. He kept me update on some important issues like payment date and the arrangement.However, I would suggest that Berkeley should introduce what the purposes of my personal account to enhance my experience. Besides, as I am an overseas buyer that I may not know the detailed procedures to buy a property in UK. It would be add-value if a video is made and let overseas buyer to watch.By the way, the HK side agent, FMI Investment cannot discharge it's duty. I don't know what the relationship of FMI with Berkeley. For me, FMI seems to be invisible for the whole process except the dates of signing.

TrustpilotGreat Experience at St. James with Minor Concierge Issues
I love how effective St. James has been in dealing with the issues I had regarding my apartment. The staff have been incredibly helpful and responsive, and the overall design and layout of the building are really nice. However, I think there could be some improvements in the concierge service. The trolleys aren't always working properly, and in a few instances, the staff were not very polite. Despite this, some staff members have been very helpful. The people there are also nice, making the overall experience positive with a friendly community and great amenities. So I’m giving a solid 4 star!

TrustpilotFriendly Berkeley team : Aggressive Estate management
The Berkeley team is really friendly but it's estate management team is rude, arrogant and borderline bullying. They have their own interpretation of the lease clauses and threaten to send penalty and charges for things they don't even discuss. Their tone of emails is aggressive and intimidating just like their staff. While Berkeley build great houses their estate partners are a let down.

Berkeley home has the worst after sales service. I bought an apartment at Carrara Tower, 250 city Road, London. There is a water leak in the ceiling of the apartment. It has been almost 2 years that they have not resolved my complaint . They are giving excuses one after another every month. I even reported the matter to NHBC but even they do not enforce any action against them . The water pours down at the time of heavy rain and is dangerous for the occupants and the apartment itself. Its been 2 years and their excuses are that the repair depends upon weather. A worst company to deal with. Will never recommend anyone to buy from Berkeley group

TrustpilotFirst-class customer service and support
The Customer Relations team led by Mark Searson in East London has been a fantastic support to me. I purchased the property from Mark when he worked at the sales department. Many years after he still picks up pieces of memory. The conversations are always honest and customer-centric. He always cares to solve the problem and wherever not applicable, he always let customers know why and what he could do to help. This is heart-warming in a tech-driven world where machine auto-replies take a role. The interactions with Mark and his team have been always positive, responsive, and helpful. Many thanks to Hazel Whiles who takes care of my queries effectively and thanks very much to Ruby Frampton from R&R who responded quickly to supply the building insurance materials. I really appreciate that there is always a human touch in the services provided, not only a ‘job’ to complete. I won’t forget to say thank you to Bill Cumes who managed the property for R&R who offered me empathy and tried his best to help. Thanks a lot to you all.
