Review for Hamptons Property Management and Our Exceptional Property Manager, Shahena

We have had an outstanding experience with Hamptons as our property management agency, and this is largely thanks to our amazing Property Manager, Shahena. She has truly set the bar for what excellent property management looks like.From the very beginning, Shahena was consistently fast in responding to any request we had. Whether it was a small concern or a bigger issue, she handled everything with efficiency and professionalism. What really stood out was her unwavering kindness and politeness, making every interaction with her a pleasant one.Shahena showed genuine understanding and flexibility when personal circumstances meant we needed to adjust a home inspection or other scheduled activities. Her support and empathy during such times were invaluable. She went above and beyond by even providing references to help us transition smoothly when we needed to move to a larger home. This level of care and dedication is truly rare.It’s not often you come across a property manager as supportive, efficient, and approachable as Shahena. She has made our experience with Hamptons so much better than we could have hoped for, and we would absolutely love to work with her again in the future. Anyone lucky enough to have her as their property manager is in for an amazing experience.Thank you, Hamptons, and especially Shahena, for everything!

Words can’t describe how terrible the Hamptons experience was

Title - Hamptons made what should be one of the most exciting achievements of someones of life to one of the most painful, stressful and least enjoyable things I have had to go throughDon't get me wrong, buying a house can be very stressful but it can be made a far lot easier with a high quality estate agent - unfortunately Hamptons fall well below "high quality" from my experience.When people write reviews or provide feedback it's usually because they expect something back, perhaps a refund, an apology, looking out for others etc. I know there is nothing I am getting back from this, so why am I spending my free time writing up my feedback......it's purely to make sure nobody else has to go through the same nightmare and deal with the same attitude of the individuals I dealt with.I have read a few other reviews to see if my experience was a one-off and seeing some of the other comments, unfortunately it seems a few others have had a similar experience.Since day 1 of the discussions, the feeling of excitement quickly changed to a feeling that this wasn't going to be an enjoyable process. A few words to describe the way I was spoken to were, rude, unprofessional, bullied, harassed, arrogant ("I have been doing this job 12 years, don't question by ability"), defensive (there is no accountability when things don't go wrong), not being able to apologise for blatant errors. Attitude aside, the quality and detail of information provided was incredibly poor - documents scanned incorrectly (missing pages), incorrect information provided, there was even information that was hidden during the process that could have put me at financial risk. I only became aware of this information through my own research into the property. If I had known about it in the earlier stages I wouldn't have gone ahead with the purchase but given I was financially committed by the time I was aware, it was too late.Deadlines were set daily and when I needed something done there could be weeks between getting an answer. The buyer should feel like the estate agent had control in the process, at no point did I feel the purchase was in control until the keys were in my hand.Since moving in I have had to replace a leaky radiator and had got an oven that has been out of action for 4 months which cannot be fixed given the price of fixing the radiator, none of which was mentioned as issues when I asked if there any appliance/fixture issues.The overall feeling is just a massive disappointment as what should be a really exciting process was made a horribly painful one - the feeling of completing was more a relief to never having to deal with Hamptons in any capacity ever again.Not even a congratulations when the keys were collected…

We had the pleasure of using the Hamptons Godalming for the sale of our house over the last few months, and the whole team were absolutely superb. From the beginning Jake Chandler who came to help with the market appraisal was charming, helpful and made the process as smooth as possible whilst offering a very competitive price compared to other estate agents in the area. Ross Bounds helped us through the whole of the transaction process of selling achieving a house price well over the asking price and gave superb, considered honest advice on the selling process and buying of our new house - he was always on hand to help and was extremely prompt with any queries we had. The viewing team of Pippa Kilby and Sue Rees were friendly, knowledgable and had clearly done their research prior to the viewings to give the best possible showing, resulting in 10 offers on our house within 48 hours! I was also impressed with how whenever I needed to ring the branch, the phone line was always answered promptly, unlike other estate agents where I was forever leaving messages and waiting to be called back. Ella was always extremely friendly and helpful when I spoke with her. I wholeheartedly recommend the team for anyone thinking of selling their house in the future, as it's a first rate service!

I recently sold my property through Hamptons Godalming and was thoroughly impressed with the service that was provided from the initial valuation, right through to completion. The total team provided a 5* level of customer service at every interaction. I was pleasantly surprised with the valuation provided and Hamptons had a clear, concise strategy to get the value that they saw in the property. It proved to be an achievable and realistic valuation. Jake made me feel totally comfortable the whole way through the process and the marketing and photography was first class. Sue, Phillipa and Pippa ensured that we had a high footfall during the viewings but that expectations were aligned for potential viewers. Ross was an absolute joy to deal with. He was incredibly efficient, professional and personable throughout. The extra hours that he worked to ensure that things went smoothly with the sale never went unnoticed. Ross also took great care and pride in finding us properties to view. During this process we had a couple of major life changing events happen and Ross was always understanding and caring throughout, he truly went above and beyond in his role. I cannot thank Hamptons enough for making the whole sales process so simple and for helping to derive the maximum value from the property. The personal touch and proficiency from every team member will never be forgotten.

despite complaining to customer service, worst service I have experienced and don't seem to want to sell houses!!!

My husband emailed Hamptons in Windsor after seeing an apartment on the river. He didn't get a response. I then emailed twice with no response, so the 3rd time I asked why they were not communicating. The response from customer service "Hasan is one of our Saturday Assistants and wouldn’t have picked up your emails on the 18th and 22nd. I assume you haven’t received an Out Of Office so I will speak with Hasan and the rest of the team to ensure these are switched on when not in the office". Ok but my emails were over a 2-week period, so did he also take off the weekend that fell in that time? It would have been better to provide an alternative contact who could actually help us. I then get told "The property is currently tenanted and being sold with a tenant in situ". I responded that it is not advertised as such, but the response is that it was not when 1st posted but is now. I still don't see this mentioned in the listing: Eton Riverside, 39-55 King Stable Street, Eton, Windsor, SL4I then responded with "I noticed that you did not respond to my two comments and at this point we are not interested in working with Hamptons. The customer service provided is very poor and despite giving you the opportunity to make things better, my comments were ignored" I tried to have them help us, but seems they are not that interested, so hence my negative response. All wording here is pulled from our email exchanges. They really don't care.

Please don’t buy anything from this company and, I have noticed the shoes they have sent me. There is no logo on it. It means you don’t know who had made it.I am still waiting for reply from HamptonLane Support Team

Great service from Hamptons Caterham

Carrie and Anna at Hamptons Caterham were brilliant! Very friendly, clear, communicative and honest team throughout the whole house sale process. After months of not finding the right buyers, Hamptons quickly found us our buyers and with a respectable offer - we couldn’t be happier. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

I have had a lot of contact over a number of years

I have had a lot of contact and personal professional service from this company and I know very well that with in the regional office I deal with, things are run to a high standard. I am situated 16,000 kilometres away in another country so it is critical that I have up to date clear and accurate information and reports about the property that is overseen by Hamptons. Their team is very well run and I can say that I am consistently reassured and impressed with my main contact there who is Constance Graham. She has an efficient and polite natural style to problem solving which results in excellent service to myself as the client. I am always kept up to speed with email and photographic information which provides the communicative link to my tennants and maintainance services that I need.

Misleading and pathetic service by the agent

I live in Reading and I was looking for a rental property for a family of 6 adults and a 1 year old boy in Pinner, so it takes me at least an hour to drive to viewings each time. I also have a dog. I know this is difficult as I already had many agents telling me most landlords only look at smaller families. So before I confirm viewings with an agent, I always specifically ask if the potential landlord will allow for this many adults plus the dog.There is one property we saw on Rightmove near Hatch End so I went ahead to contact Hamptons, the agent for the letting. Leila, the agent, contacted me for viewing availability. She also sent me an email to ask me details about the potential tenants, for which I fully listed out the names and relationships (one big family) of all the people that will be living in the property plus the age and breed of my dog.She went ahead to confirm my viewing time without any objection. On the day of the viewing, I asked her again if the landlord is fine with the number of people and the dog to which she said "we will see, it depends on the package" (whatever that means).After the viewing (which was on a Saturday), we told her on the Monday through email we would like to make an offer and went ahead to fill in an offer sheet, matching the asking price and guess what, Leila comes back to me and say the landlord won't allow this many people and won't allow pets. I questioned her saying that I already gave her all this information before viewing and asked before the viewing whether the landlord is okay with it because I wouldn't drive for an hour if my offer would not be considered due to the number of people and my dog. What's funny is that she still kept talking about overall package and stuff like that.This is pathetic service by her and this does not reflect well on Hamptons as her title is Senior Lettings Consultant.

Let down by Hamptons fully managed service

We let our Victorian period house for five years while we lived in the USA through Hamptons fully managed service. Over that period various work were carried out that we approved but obviously which we could not manage. Hamptons assured us they had access and relationships with good quality trades people. We came back to find stone mullions drilled through. Holes made by plumbers left exposed. Cement used instead of grouting. White pipework placed over the outside of the house. Totally different fittings used in bathrooms. The house was beautiful when we left and we returned to find it heading towards a 1960's student house. We paid Hamptons to periodically review in addition to the 11% they took. The company they contracted to was CCP Maintenance. DO NOT LET THEM IN YOUR HOME. I would suggest also finding a letting agency that actually cares about the house and not just the income.

Very Poor Experience

We were looking to rent a property (£4000-£5000 pm). We arranged several viewings. The first 4 were conducted by a man from one office. He was very affable. The next 2 were conducted by a girl from a different office. We decided we wanted to proceed with one and we put in a definite and precise offer. We emailed the girl on Friday, clearly stating our position. She responded asking if we were happy to confirm the asking price, which we agreed to. I also confirmed that we were offering a long term let (3+years) and also a holding deposit that was non-fundable in the event that the sale did not complete. That was Friday early afternoon. We heard nothing back and by Tuesday Mid morning I phoned to ask if the landlord had responded. Yes, she said, although she hadn't bothered to tell us! She said the landlord had accepted our offer, but wanted to continue marketing the property until we had exchanged contracts. I asked whether she had advised him of our offer for a non-returnable deposit. No, she hadn't read our email properly! She is clearly on a different planet and speaks a different language! I asked her to go back and tell the landlord clearly what we had offered. She came back saying that he accepted our offer but would continue marketing the property in the meantime. We cannot affor to end up without somewhere to live, so I have told them to advise their client that we withdraw completley. His loss, not ours. I'm sure the outcome would have been different if we hasd been dealing with someone who knew what they were doing and had bothered to digest and understand our communications. Not impressed at all!

Holding on to our deposit money…

Holding on to our deposit money illegally. Have waited 25 days and counting for our money to come back. Spoke to branch manager in Clapham (Andrew) he seems like a nice guy but blaming it on not being able to get hold of the landlord?? How is this fair? What a shambles! Have rented from 3 other letting agents and they always gave us our money back on time. We were great tenants for 2 years, always paid rent on time and gave the property back in great condition!

Thank you ! SW18 house sold...

We recently sold our property with the help of Mark Thompson and team at Hamptons on Garratt Lane. From the very start Mark was friendly, well-informed and supportive, suggesting a good strategy for the sale. He was excellent at anticipating and assessing our situation and what we needed.A big thank you also to the team that helped our sale progress, to Alex for organising the viewings and keeping us up-to-date with news, and to Patrick for the communications and keeping us on track with the documentation. The timing of the communications was just right. All this reduced the stress of selling a much loved house.Thank you.

Leave it to Saima.For several years, we have been renting our property while living overseas. For the past year, Saima has been in charge of management. She is capable of handling any issues that arise, and I trust her fully to work in our best interests while keeping our tenants happy. She keeps us informed about the arising issues and reports back diligently, minimising unnecessary contact, which I appreciate. She manages the load well, and I would recommend her service.

Hamptons Property Management

I have been using Hamptons, St. Albans for short term lets for over 4 years and the whole team have been absolutely brilliant. I am particularly impressed with David Whiting the property manager. He has been very responsive, professional and friendly in dealing with any of the issues at the property. He seems to have a great team of reliable and friendly contractors on call that fix all the problems quickly and professionally.
