Ian is a disgrace. We made 2 credible offers on a property and both times he didn't get back to us despite saying he would. Strange considering the property still hasn't sold. Waste of time

I have had a horrible experience with…

I have had a horrible experience with Maddie Barrington as a tenant.We were presented with a dirty property full of black mold and left to rot with a newborn for two and a half years before eventually having to move out.We faced a sizeable rent increase as well but absolutely no action towards our very serious issue.We have lost thousands of pounds worth of clothes and have had to spend tens of hours emptying our wardrobes in order to wash our clothes again and again.On top of everything we had to pay enormous electricity bills as a result of running several dehumidifiers.Maddie has not been helpful or accommodating.I would recommend to make sure you do not deal with her If you do have to work with wink worth.Edit: In regards to your response, I have put the name of the person there so you should be able to know what office this is. The property is in N1.

I've been incredibly impressive by the diligent service provided by Winkworths while handling the sale of our house. We were in a complicated chain and from the outset, they kept us updated regularly on how everything was progressing and handled problems that arose calmly and professionally. The way they marketed our house was fantastic and the strong listing led to a great offer very quickly. Selling a house is very stressful but they made it as smooth as possible throughout. I'd recommend their services very highly if you are looking to buy or sell. Thank you again to Ryan, Ian and the team.

Exceptional services

Patrick and Alex were incredible house estate agents who made our house buying experience truly remarkable. Their unwavering dedication, vast knowledge, and friendly demeanor were invaluable. They went above and beyond to find us the perfect home and made the process stress-free. Highly recommended!

Proper lettings

We have just re-let our property with Aaron and the team at Winkworth and found it to be a smooth experience. This is the second time they will have found us tenants and we very much appreciated the patience and advice Aaron and his team have offered throughout.

Terrific sales team - Lady and Sean are brilliant

Terrific sales team. Lady was flexible and accommodating when we wanted to arrange property viewings, and her knowledge of the local area is second to none. Sean was proactive and helpful and really worked hard to move our purchase towards a swift completion. Five star service, would definitely recommend.

The Winkworth team in Kensal Rise

The Winkworth team in Kensal Rise is exceptional. Thorough, caring, professional, and relentless in finding our ideal home.By far the best team we came across and that was reflected in the quality and choice of the houses they had access to, clearly, they are trusted by many.

Winkworth is the agent you need

Kerry and Sarah were so helpful and made our process seamless. They were very understanding during obstacles and always found a way around it. They are also very proactive and the nicest agents I have ever met. The team are very responsive. They made our overall experience easy and lovely. I couldn’t thank them enough

Brilliant letting agent team

Every dealing I have had with Winkworth Kensal Rise has been superb. They are an incredibly charming and efficient team, always on hand for any queries. They are knowledgeable about the market and have always found great tenants really quickly. Wouldn't ever use anyone else.

The worst agency .

The worst agency .. I had a viewing yesterday and I went to see the flat with my wife and my 6 months old babe ,and my agent Lewis Impleton , probably he hasn’t so happy with that , he tried to avoid answer my question, very poor customers skills , he wasn’t even showing me the house , not talking at all .. probably you could see he was not interested to rent the flat to me from the first moment .. after that i told him I was happy to rent the flat and I have everything had they need .. while allAnswer was been answered next day was asking me again the same question by email . .. his email very unprofessional, he was like writing to a friend .. never mind after all that , not answering to me for 2 days , I had to email him again and after the reply of him was that the flat it’s been gone .. that all , didn’t even ask me if he can show me some other properties that are still on the market..

Fantastic Agent

Ian from Northampton Winkworth went over and above. Phone calls were always responded to promptly and Ian kept in touch following up with seller and purchaser. He really couldn’t have done anymore. We highly recommend Northampton Winkworth.

Please avoid them. Reclaiming our deposit has become a lengthy and arduous process

Unfortunately, our experience with Winkworth has been so disappointing that I must give a 1-star rating, though I wish there was an option for zero stars. They have repeatedly made false statements to unfairly extract money from tenant. Even damage noted in their own move-in inventory report from last year is now being used against us to justify charges. It's disheartening to witness their prioritization of profit over fairness. When confronted, they suggest disputing through "my deposit scheme," only to further inflate fees. Our cleaning fee surged from £140 to £336, and apart from maintenance fees were hiked for pre-existing damages. Despite returning the property in better condition, we were still charged professional cleaning fees for mold, dust, and dirt present upon move-in. They even colluded with their inventory company to exploit situations for financial gain, leaving us speechless. Additionally, we graciously accommodated potential tenant viewings three times in 10 days, only to have our privacy violated as individuals freely took photos and rifled through our belongings without consent. This experience has left us profoundly disappointed and hesitant to engage with Winkworth in the future.

Worst Ever

My experience with Winkworth was a masterclass in chaos and incompetence. A real circus is even better them. Not only did they turn a blind eye to broken properties, but they also seemed to have a PhD in denial and deception. They don't even have the decency to possess basic moral standards. I bet Winkworth does not care their branding or reputation, basic thing for a business. Their idea of 'professional cleaning' was a joke - the place was dirtier than a pigsty, with mold, spiders the size of small cars, and no sign of any supposed cleaning crew. And don't even get me started on their response time - it's like they only sprang into action when I threatened to pack my bags.During checkout, they pulled out all the stops with their wild accusations, conveniently forgetting that the damages were already there when I moved in. But oh no, let's blame the tenant instead!And as if dealing with Winkworth wasn't enough, their partner in crime, ACT Property, was just as useless. It's like they were in cahoots, caring more about squeezing every penny out of me than addressing my legitimate concerns.Privacy? What privacy? They had no qualms about waltzing into my home uninvited, rearranging things like they owned the place. And to top it all off, they even decided to whip up a meal in my kitchen without so much as a 'by your leave.' They took away my letters too.Getting my deposit back was a whole saga, thanks to their fault-finding frenzy. But hey, at least I've inadvertently become their biggest promoter in my community (whatsapp, X, facebook, signal, neighbours) about Winkworth. The way word spreads, it's like a snowball effect! I am so excited!

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. Kept us updated every step of the way and sold our house within weeks of marketing. Would highly recommend Winkworth Estate Agent to anyone wanting to sell or buy. You won’t be disappointed. Keep up the great work Ian and team.

We selected Ian from a group of three estate agents who submitted valuations for a family members property. We were drawn to his professionalism and market knowledge when appraising the property. The property was marketed professionally and we were informed at every stage of the progression with viewings and marketing . Ian was instrumental in ensuring smooth and prompt contract exchange and sale completion . At every stage , Ian and his team ensured the property sale went smoothly . We live out of the county so his help, local contacts and support were invaluable . I would have no hesitation in recommending Ian and his team .

I have just re let my apartment

I have just re let my apartment through the Kensal Rise Office who have been managing my property for 2 years. Aaron and his team were fantastic and managed a turnaround in record time resulting no loss of rental revenues. The process was extremely efficient and very re assuring. They went above and beyond my expectations. Totally recommend.

Great experience with Winkworth

We rented an apartment though Winkworth last month and the process could have not been any better. From coordinating the viewing to signing the contract and moving in, Aaron and his team have gone above and beyond. Would definitely recommend them if you are planning to rent/ buy around the area.

very rude agent and poor behaviour

One of the agents at this firm has abused a member of our team because she had taken one day's leave. He then decided to leave a review of the whole firm making serious allegations about our firm.

Highly Recommend!

As first-time landlords, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Winkworth. The whole team has been absolutely fantastic, friendly, knowledgeable, and always approachable. They’ve made the whole process smooth and stress-free, and are always happy to help, even by sharing contacts for trusted local tradesmen when needed. It’s been a pleasure working with them, and we feel in very safe hands. Highly recommend!
