Myself and my wife recently purchased a BTL property through Winkworths and although the legal side was very lengthy, Will & Fergus at Winkworths were very proactive and helpful with the whole process. Queries were always responded to very quickly and both were very friendly and approachable. Weβll be asking Winkworths to let the property for us once the refurb is done. Thanks for all your help and patience guys π
I am delighted to hear you have had such a great service and thank for taking the time to leave us a review. We look forward to working with you again in finding you a suitable tenant. All the best with the renovations in the meantime.

I had a viewing in one of their properties. We agreed at a certain time. Agent attends in a visibly bad mood and looking as if he just rolled out from bed. He knocked on the door but none answers, he has no key! So there was no viewing. I had to ask for permission at work, It was wasted time and journey for me. They never got back to me to arrange another viewing or at least apologise. I would avoid Winkworth. Very unprofessional agents.
I am sorry to hear you have had a bad experience when trying to view one of our properties. We pride ourserlves on our customer service and always strive to improve if we receive any negative feedback. Having looked through our appointments, I cannot see when this may have happened. Would you be kind enough to email me the property address you were attempting to view and your name so I can look into this further. If you could please email admin.westbourne@winkworth.co.uk. Once again, I am sorry that you have had a bad exerience however I will look into this for you.

Would highly recommend Winkworth Estate Agents! Getting a new property can be very stressful. I found that they were so easy to communicate with, the process was very simple, and they put me at ease. Iβve previously used other Estate agents which havenβt been so great, and to have found these guys has just been a breath of fresh air. Their professionalism is second to none! Especially Alex Marle whom is based at the Westbourne branch. He guided me step by step through everything, and kept in close contact to make sure I was happy with everything. Very grateful for him and the team at Winkworth. Absolutely amazing! Thank you for everything.

My experience with both Rob and William from Winkworth Westbourne has been a great one. My initial contact with their office was with regard to my search for an investment property. Rob was quick to understand the exact sort of properties Iβd be interested in. They were both extremely knowledgeable about the market and helpful. They seem to get the best properties for sale too!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
It is lovely to hear you have been so satisfied with the service you have received. Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. All the best.

Alex and the team were exceptional in looking after myself and my son as we searched for an apartment in a very hot market. Alex went above and beyond to ensure things went smoothly (and when there were bumps in the road found a solution to them) and the outcome was entirely satisfactory. Highly recommended.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Alex loves a challenge and he will be delighted you pleased with the service he provided, as am I! All the best.

I had the absolute pleasure of renting a property managed by Alex Marle, and I must say, it was an experience that exceeded all my expectations. His professionalism and unwavering support throughout my tenancy were truly commendable. From the onset, Alex was always approachable and ready to assist with any queries or concerns. His prompt responses and effective solutions made my stay comfortable and stress-free. It was evident that Alex takes great pride in his role and is genuinely invested in ensuring the satisfaction of his tenants. Winkworth is indeed fortunate to have such a dedicated and capable individual on their team. It was a delight dealing with them, largely due to the exceptional service provided by Alex. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Alex and his agency, Winkworth, to any prospective tenants. Their commitment to providing a seamless rental experience is second to none. Thank you, Alex, for making my tenancy a memorable one. Keep up the excellent work!

We were looking for a flat in Westbourne and dealt with Winkworths, our dealings were with George who couldnβt have been more helpful, he found us exactly what we wanted and followed everything through very efficiently, we are more than happy with Winkworths and are now living happily in our Westbourne home thanks to Winkworths

I am happy to leave an excellent review for Alex and the team at Westbourne for their help in finding me a new tenant so quickly and enabling me to turn around my flat around between tenants in 2 weeks. As ever it was not plain sailing as there was some surprises and a fair amount of work to get done in a short amount of time, but between us we did it. So thankyou.
Thank you for your positive feedback Lynn. I am delighted we have managed to find you a suitable tenant again and all went as smoothly as can these days!

Recently rented through Winkworth and cannot recommend their service any higher. I dealt with Alex and Fran, who were both credits to the team. Alex arrange my viewing and was flexible with my difficult work schedule to enable me to view with my partner. He was patient and knowledgeable regarding the property. Fran gave us the keys and handing over the inventory. She was warm, welcoming and gave us confidence to contact her over the weekend if there were any problems during move in. Sure enough, there were a couple of problems on move in and true to her word they were sorted out quickly. Overall a great service and I am confident their management of the property and my tenancy will be super. Thanks again!

I have rented out my property with Winkworth for a number of years. When the tenants change they are always incredibly quick to advertise and find new people (just this week it took them only 48 hours!) and they make the process very easy for me as a Landlord. Alex, Katy and the team are great at keeping in touch and will always get back to me quickly if anything needs sorting.
Many thanks for your positive feedback on your experience dealing with us at Winkworth Westbourne. I am pleased you have been so happy with the service you are receiving.

I highly recommend Alex at Winkworth Westbourne. From the initial engagement and through the entire process he ensured we were fully aware of status and made the whole process stress free. He was extremely professional which was incredibly reassuring knowing that we were in safe hands. Would not hesitate to reach out to Alex again when needed given the quality of his service.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
Many thanks for your review Adam. I am pleased to hear you were pleased with the service you have received whilst dealing with us. All the best.

Alex Marle in the lettings team was fantastic from initial call and viewing through to handing me the keys of my flat. Alex is a complete professional. He went above and beyond what Iβve found with other agents - texting me with updates, helping me to navigate the process and even very kindly carrying a large parcel when we did the inventory. I wouldnβt normally leave a review, but recognition is due here!
Thank you so much for your kind words about Alex. I am delighted you have been so pleased with the service you have received. It is lovely to hear such positive feedback. I wish you all the best in your new home. Kind Regards. Ben Jesty

Being a busy professional it was great to have dealt with Will during my property search. He listened to my requirements and came up with several options within pre agreed timescales. He kept be fully updated at all times and literally made the process seamless, a great asset to Winkworth and I would happily recommend him to anybody searching for property in the area.
I am very pleased to hear that you have had a good experience in dealing with us. Thank you for your review. All the best.

Excellent service from Winkworth but special mention to Katy Gray for finding me a property in pristine condition and still within walking distance to my friends. As an elderly person this was very important to me. I was concerned about the move but Katy's help and enthusiasm kept me going while I was waiting to make the move. Thank you Winkworth.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
I am delighted Katy has provided such a good service and thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. All the best. Ben Jesty

Unprofessional and incapable of matching tenants to appropriate property and failing to manage unacceptable noise levels. I have not slept in days due to their tenant. For the avoidance of all doubt I have not asked for the tenant to be evicted and my genuine complaints which have led to sleep deprivation have not been professionally dealt with or resolved. Winkworths clearly do not even understand the tenants flat is above mine!
Further to your review, as has been explained to you on a number of occasions, it is not that we are incapable of matching tenants to appropriate properties. We cannot and would not discriminate against a tenant who has a child! This would not be legal nor morally right. Furthermore, we cannot evict somebody because they have a child as you have requested. Nobody else in the building have complained and we have acted on every occasion you have raised an issue, despite having no evidence of any excessive noise as we have requested from you.

We have been working with Alex as our property manager for the last 7 years, and he has been great. Heβs always responsive, no matter the time or day, and consistently handles any issues or queries with professionalism and speed, making the process smooth and stress-free. We have built a strong working relationship over this time and would highly recommend his services to anyone in need of a reliable and efficient property manager. Thank you, Alex!
Thank you for your review. Alex will be pleased to hear you have been impressed with his service. We appeciate you taking the time to leave us such a positive review.

Excellent selling experience with George and Fergus from the valuation through to completion, they kept us informed on progress without prompting. They made things easy when we needed trades people, all arranged by them and completed without issue. Would thoroughly recommend Winkworth Westbourne.
5/5
Alex was very helpful when we were looking for a property. One thing I have to say is that he was definitely proactive rather than reactive. He was very much on the ball notifying us of possible suitable properties and kept us up to date which was pleasantly surprising. In our experience not all agents take the time to do that.PositiveProfessionalism
Great to hear Alex had been so helpful. Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. All the best

We had the opportunity to rent with Winkworth and the experience was excellent. Both Katy (first contact) and Alex were professionals, polite and kind. The rental service was even by email because we were in another city and the business needs a lot of trust and we found it with them. Thank you for your service and if we have a new opportunity to rent with them we will.
Many thanks for your review Danny. It is very much appreciated and I am pleased to hear you have been so pleased with the service from Katy, Alex and the team. All the best. Ben Jesty
