In a word it is the personal attention that my wife and I get from Natasha Bedenik. Our properties are managed from two different offices and tasks delegated to different people, accounts, letting, maintenance. With people standing in during absences at times, we get messages from about 9 different people and at times there are inconsistencies. For us the answer is to ask Natasha . Starting mid-August this year there was confusion amongst staff and estate management companies sending notices and invoices inconsistently to Dexters or directly to us such that some invoices were overlooked. Natasha sorted it out and now it seems to be running smoothly

Dexters (kentish Town)​ Avoid at all costs.

I wasted five months of my time trying to sell my property with them. Day one branch manager values my property with all the usual speil estate agents use to get you signed up. He valued my property between £400k and £475k which was to large a range!! I think this is done to offer properties too investors at the lower end of the range they know will be interested before it goes live on right move to the general public. I think these property investors are in cahoots with Dexters from the start? After signing you up the pressure starts to get you signed up with a solicitor they recommend on a no sale no fee deal, I'm selling a property with no chain so all the hard work is done by the buyers solicitor, there recommended solicitor quoted me a fee of £2.4k, this is when the dodgy alarm bells started ringing, I later appointed my own solicitor for less than £1k. The day before my property goes live on rightmove he recommends a starting price of £450k, that's £25k price drop from his maximum valuation two weeks earlier? After my property went I live I got lots of interest and viewings from rightmove, then I noticed something strange, after any potential buyers had viewed my property Dexters took them straight into my next door neighbours property? What Dexters failed to tell me was they where also marketing my neighbours almost identical property at a starting price £5k lower than mine. It sounds unbelievable but true! After a few weeks Dexters call me with an offer from a first time buyer who they say has a deposit ready to apply for a mortgage, after excepting their second offer I get pested by Dexters to appoint my solicitor before the buyer has there mortgage in place to buy? What a big mistake I made, always get proof of funds to buy before appointing a solicitor. After appointing my solicitor the buyer's details are sent over, It turns out the buyer is a buy to let property investor. Dexters later denied telling me he was a first time buyer and the staff member who told me this had moved to another branch. (BS) The same staff member answered my phone call two days before the sale fell through? The investor buyer then had his first mortgage valuation declined, After the buyers second mortgage valuation he claimed the lenders mortgage offer wasn't high enough too complete the sale and asked me to lower the price buy £30k???After several phone calls with a different Dexters staff member I agreed a price cut of £15k with the buyer stating he could find short fall amount with the help of friends and family to complete the sale. (ALL B.S.)Sale back on track (I thought) until the branch manager returned from holiday the next day and got involved again stating it was his sale and the other staff member was only covering? He told me the buyer was having a third mortgage application for the original selling price with the £15k price cut I agreed being allocated for property repairs? It sounded dodgy but had nothing to do with me (I thought). The next day the buyers solicitor emailed my solicitor to say that I'd agreed to register the sale at the original selling price but receiving £15k less and asking me to confirm this dodgy deal. This would of also meant me paying capital gains tax on £15k more than I was receiving for the sale. They thought I was born yesterday with the word mug tattooed on my forehead. A few days after his third mortgage valuation the buy to let investor pulled out. Dexters recommended remarketing my property which they'd already had removed from right move, I've no idea why they done that when contracts hadn't been signed? I thought proper agent practice was to mark adverts STC? From start to finish the whole deal stunk, this review is one hundred percent true, I have no reason to lie, recorded telephone records and emails would back me up on all of this but I doubt very much if Dexters keep them? Dexters say before you sign you can pull out of the agreement at anytime which is true, but don't forget to read the small print, you actually have a too give them 28 days notice before you're free to find a trustworthy estate agent. Take my advice and save yourself some time and money and stay clear of Dexters.

Helpful and committed to the finish

A very lengthy and protracted sale but we got there in the end and Dexters kept things moving and were very responsive. Nina Gallagher was particularly helpful, always on the end of the phone or email to address issues head on.

An absolute nightmare to deal with

An absolute nightmare to deal with. Despite agreeing to clean & repair the flat before occupation, none of the work was done & they had the cheek to say that it had been cleaned & repairs done. This was a complete lie. So now having payed a deposit & 6 months rent in advance, we have no flat & Dexters are holding on to my money!

Great service.

Great service.As a tenant I have had no issues whatsoever with Dexters. They have been my agent now for three years.Whenever there has been an issue with anything within the property, there has always been a quick response from my property manager, Myra Mettam. Whether it has been a broken fridge, a leaking shower door, a new washing machine, etc, a professional trade has been called quickly and the issue has been rectified, usually within a week of the problem being highlighted. In fact, today I emailed Myra at around midday to report a radiator not working in the property and by 2.45pm someone had been sent round and the radiator was fixed. Amazing!It also helps that my landlord appears to be very quick to respond as well, and very understanding. You hear of many horror stories for tenants, but my experience with Dexters couldn't be further removed from those. Very satisfied.

Avoid at all costs.

Avoid at all costs.They pressured us into reducing the property's price within seven days of marketing it. They screamed at me that the property needed a complete refurb, which was invalid. They took really bad photos and included that the property needed updating in the property details, which was false. After a few weeks, they advised us to accept an offer way below the property's value. The whole episode stank of insider dealing. On top of which, they were stressful to deal with. Luckily, I changed Estate Agents, and we sold the property for £35,000 more than the offer they told us to accept.

Don't use Dexters.

Let out a property - fully managed service with Dexters between Aug 2021-Aug 2023 Management fees 18% They did nothing. 0. The tenants sub let the property -Dexters did not check, intervene, even though emails and phone calls, they confirmed they suspected.The tenants left the property damaged, items missing. Dexters took over 2 months to process the deposit return, and I still have not seen any money from the held deposit.Utterly useless. Take ages to respond, by phone or email.

We first marketed our property through a local 'global' brand agency who produced very little. We instructed Alastair Mercer and his team at Dexters who provided an outstanding service, immediate replies to phone calls and emails as well as constructive feedback on a regular basis. They achieved a great price for my property for which myself and my husband are very grateful.

My experience as a small landlord

Dexters have taken over from my previous Management Company and so far the change over has gone smoothly with no disruption to the service.I had a new tenant recently in one property and there has been a number of issues that have needed dealing with. They have kept me informed and are always easily contactable for advice and clarifying any issues that have arisen. (Olivier Babylone)Dexters appear to have a number of reliable (If expensive) contractors to carry out any works and checks necessary in a timely fashion.

BEST PROPERTY MANAGEMENT

I am very happy that Dexter take over the management of the building where I live. They had been very professional, proactive and supporting all the times for any issue in the building.As example this morning, I send an email to Dexter Acton complaining about the switch of the boiling and the lady Ms Georgina Mcconnell working there send me straight away an electrician to fix it 10 minutes after receiving my complain. Honestly, no one can do better.I recommend highly Dexter specially the agency based in Acton.

Absolute 5 stars for Jadasa, she’s been amazing ever since we took over the lease from the previous tenants, also help us arranging the bed frame, very responsive and very responsible. She’s the best from all the real estate agents and building managers I’ve met. Very kind and friendly, you’re in good hands if she manages your property.

Excellent service from Dexters property management team

Just wanted to give a mention to Idris (property manager) who is always so polite and a pleasure to deal with. Any time an issue arises he responds quickly and is excellent at keeping you updated. He is a breath of air. Also, want to mention Alton, who rearranged his diary to fit in a visit yesterday and fix a lock, and also very helpfully looked at a number of issues we have with our windows. Also, a very pleasant person to deal with and an extra star for covering his shoes when he came into the property!

Time wasters - just another misleading estate agent

Classic misleading estate agent practice of advertising properties on zoopla/rightmove that were SSTC days/weeks ago, calling you back for your details, repeatedly pressuring you to speak with their own mortgage advisors, only to finally mention the property is no longer available. Time wasters.Edit in regarding response from Dexters: seemingly no attempt to contact me has been made (not that I wish for any), and the property is yet still showing as for sale, only serving to support my above review comments.

Dexters not responding to queries

My experience of renting with Dexters has been very poor. For the second time, I'm having to use the complaints procedure to escalate issues to their management team because my emails do not get responded to. I have been waiting for roughly 5 weeks now for someone to help me allocate the right fuse box for this flat, so that a smart metre can be installed. I have waiting for the same amount of time for the heater manuals to be sent to me, so I can set up the radiators correctly for the winter period. I chase up emails on roughly a weekly basis and occasionally I receive a reply (saying someone will look into it) but never answering my query. The most recent exchange I had was with a person who stopped responding all together. When I contacted somebody else to find out why that was, I was told the person has left the business and they would now be picking up my queries. It's been another two weeks without responses since then. I have voiced to Dexters several times that I am really frustrated about this situation but these emails have also been ignored.When I moved in to the property, I occasionally called the office in the hope to speed things along. I have stopped doing this, too, because my experience has been that the person I needed to speak to was never available, I then needed to explain my issues to several different people and any promise that I would receive a call back was never held. I have informed the landlord of this experience as well because I think it's important they are aware of the service their tenant is receiving from Dexters.
