Foxtons St John's Wood reviews

I truly do not understand who in their right mind has ever rated Foxtons 5 stars. Unfortunately I have been in contact with them at multiple occasions but I am happy to say that today was the last. They arrange viewings for properties that has already been let, WHY not cancel if anything happened between the time of booking and the viewing actually taking place. This seems to be a common occurrence for Foxtons. Other than that, the agents are the rudest human beings I have ever spoken to. Surely I’ve not been unfortunate enough to have come across the ONLY employees at Foxtons that hate their jobs so this seems to be a big issue over there. When calling it seems as though you just ruined their entire day. I’m SORRY I was interested in the properties you have listed, that by the way isn’t even available. If calls like these are a displeasure to the agents I would suggest removing the ads.

I recently found a new apartment through Foxtons St John’s Wood. The agent who helped me was lovely Sarah McGuinness who was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to my needs. She made the entire process smooth and stress-free, taking the time to answer all my questions and show me great options that fit my preferences and budget. Thanks to her I found the perfect place. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable and friendly real estate agent.

Incompetence and lies on a legendary scale!

I had my property up for sale with Foxtons, an offer collapsed, and so I decided to consider rental. After I spoke to the rental department, they took a renter into my property without my permission, hadn't even signed a contract. Luckily, the person liked it and offered a good rent. The agent lied to the renter and me, messed up three contracts, so by the time he signed the fourth contract on my behalf, the renter had been in my flat for 10 days. Lucky he signed! He told me that I could not protect the deposit...lie. He told me that the second 6-month rent payment would be paid on the fourth month...lie. And it was not paid in advance on the 5th month like every other agent; the tenant is now late with the second 6-month payment. I complained to the manager, but he ignored my complaints. The whole office is corrupt. Really, do yourself a favour, there are good letting agents out there, Foxtons is not one of them.

So far, all good

Irfan has been an excellent. He addresses issues promptly, and we have experienced minimal disruptions throughout our tenancies. Would certainly recommend foxtons.

I had a wonderful experience renting a place through this branch. I can particularly recommend Eloise Palmer; she was extremely helpful and always available. Everything also moved very quickly there, from viewing to offer accepted took just less than a day. Can recommend for those looking for a place to rent in the area (or for those wanting to let their own place).

New X Foxtons is appalling

New Cross Gate letting office is appalling. I had a misfortune to invite them a few years back for valuation and then when changed my mind, asked them to delete me from their database as wasn't planning to do anything with my house. And guess what every year I am receiving unsolicited calls inquiring about valuation, letting, selling. They promise to delete my number every time they call once every half a year in average, pathetic.

I had the pleasure of working with Louis Levison from Foxtons St. John’s Wood while searching for a rental property, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the experience. Louis was incredibly professional, attentive, and truly understood my needs. Over the course of 90-120 minutes, he efficiently drove me around and showed me four excellent properties, each of which perfectly matched what I was looking for in terms of location, budget, and amenities. Louis demonstrated a deep knowledge of the local market and took the time to explain each property in detail, making sure I had all the information I needed to make an informed decision. His friendly and approachable demeanour made the entire process stress-free, and I appreciated how organised and punctual he was. I highly recommend Louis to anyone seeking a dedicated, knowledgeable, and client-focused agent. He made the property search both enjoyable and productive, and I am extremely pleased with the options he presented. Thank you, Louis, for your hard work and professionalism!

They take the money and then abandon their landlords. Do not rent a property with these agents as there is no customer support or response. I have had a couple of issues and queries - I have had to ring several times with long wait times and email multiple times for a response, still waiting three weeks later. They never reply or respond costing me hours of wasted time and stress.

Satisfactory property management

I have used Foxtons as the property management agent for nearly 5 years, I am especially satisfied with my experience since Tony Chan from property management became my property manager since 2024. He is very professional and proactively in handling with the requests and issues regarding the tenant & property management. He always responds to my enquiries promptly and provides valuable advice.

Disorganised and Unreasonable Charges

I’ve never felt the need to write a review in my life, but my recent experience with Foxtons was so poor I felt compelled to share it and warn others.

I had the pleasure of working with Sheryn as my real estate agent, and she was absolutely amazing. Throughout my flat search, she was incredibly attentive, patient, and truly committed to helping me find the perfect home. Her genuine care made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend reaching out to Sheryn if you're looking for a long-term rental, you're in excellent hands.

Nikita Harper

My review only refers to Nikita Harper from Foxtons Letting Support Department, who called me today to help me resolve several issues with my logging in to my Foxtons Account. She was helpful, courteous, and followed up on our conversations. I have nothing good to say about the rest of the Foxtons team, including people at the Head Office, who were not only unhelpful, but kept on transferring my call to other people in the Foxton organisation, who were of course not at their seats, but "please leave a message and I will get back to you". I wasted well over an hour of my time today on the phone trying to get Foxtons support to resolve a problem they have created.

Absolute scam of a company, avoid at all costs

Absolute scam of a company. I’ve never gone to a Foxtons viewing where the property was as advertised - e.g. they say it’s a 5 minute walk from the station and it ends up being a 20 minute walk. They’ll do anything to get you through the door of a property, in the hope that you’ll somehow fall in love with the Godforsaken place once you get there. It’s a bit like how men all say they’re 6’0 on dating apps and then hope that their mediocre personality will win you over when you realise they’re 5’9 in person. Also, if you give your number to one office, be prepared to have endless phone calls for the rest of your life. I once had 10 phone calls in one day from different offices I wasn’t registered with, all asking if I would like to register with them. This morning I’ve had four offices call so far and it’s only 11am. If you don’t pick up the phone, they just immediately call back - very convenient if you’re in a meeting or on another call. This is despite the fact that I have asked them to remove my number from their database. And they all have different numbers so blocking one does nothing, and you don’t know if it could be someone else calling so you inevitably have to pick up just in case. So basically, sign up for Foxtons if you want to be pestered for the rest of your life by absolute crooks!! How fun!!

Alycia Levy at Foxtons is brilliant

I use Alycia Levy as my property manager and have done so for several years and she is excellent, always going above and beyond. She is responsive, knowledgeable, providing excellent customer service and I am not sure what I would have done without her as she is always gets things sorted and organised and keeps me updated.

the worst experience ever. They treat you well until you rent the property and then you never hear from them. We moved in 8 hours later the previous tenants moved out. That was very risky during Corona. The flat was filthy, we did not have hot water for 9 days. Our dishwasher had leakage, we had mould in one of the bedrooms, we had mice droppings in the flat. These are only half of our problems and none of them are fixed. Everything was already addressed on our inventory list and they made us move in in this circumstances.

Avoid

Absolutely terrible experience as a tenant. Apartment put on the market for sale and I had to suffer through six months of viewings although my contract did not stipulate this. Very inconsiderate and once I gave notice to move out the property was immediately put on the market for a higher rent. Agents come for viewing with no notice and have no respect. Several deductions taken from deposit creating various inane reasons . Avoid at all costs.

Extremely poor handling of tenancy deposit refund. I vacated my property on 25 September 2025, and my landlord immediately approved the full return of my deposit. Despite submitting my bank details on 3 October and following up several times by email, Foxtons has failed to process the refund or provide any proper communication for weeks. The property manager has been unresponsive and uncoordinated, leaving me to chase multiple people for basic updates. I’ve had to escalate the issue to The Property Ombudsman and mydeposits dispute service due to their inaction. For such a large agency, this level of negligence is unacceptable.
