TrustpilotVery rude agent
Very rude agent, i think their name is Maggie. Was very unhelpful and rude. My mother confirmed the viewing and provided her phone number but the agent failed to even call. Called later and belittled my mother while being snarky.
Good morning, We are sorry to hear that you have had a bad experience with Winkworth. I am afraid I cannot find you on our system. Please advise what office you booked the viewing with ?

Deborah did a great job with the photography for our property. She was professional, efficient and very easy to work with on the day, which made the whole process straightforward. The photos came out really well and captured the house beautifully, helping it present strongly when it went live online. We really appreciated the care taken and would happily recommend Winkworth’s photography service.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave an excellent rating Jon. We really appreciate your business. Please let us know if we can do anything for you in the future.

TrustpilotExcellent Agents
I have worked with many estate agents on buying and selling properties. I also used to work in the commercial property sector. In selling this property I have been very impressed by the advice and service given by Winkworths but notably by Lewis. We have been informed and regularly updated (without chasing or prompting). Lewis has been proactive throughout to ensure that our sale was made quickly and efficiently. I highly recommend Lewis and Winkworth.
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave an excellent rating. We really appreciate your business. Please let us know if we can do anything for you in the future.

Throughout this intricate process, Nicole has been an invaluable source of expert guidance and support. Whether you are buying, selling or renting a home, her professionalism, unwavering dedication, and commitment to delivering exceptional service are commendable. Nicole's ability to establish a personal connection and genuinely understand clients' needs is truly remarkable. She is a genuine asset to your agency, exemplifying the qualities of a top-tier agent. I would wholeheartedly recommend her. Once again Nicole, thank you!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Sophia. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Nicole is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

Lauren Douglas (Winkworth Shorditch) has helped me find tenants twice. On both occasions, she's found me multiple high-quality tenants very quickly. On both occasions, I've been delighted with the support she's provided. Her local knowledge and understanding of the ever-changing regulations governing the market are unequalled. I'll certainly be using Lauren Douglas again.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us and we agree, Lauren is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

I am extremely disappointed with the service provided by this agency. It has now been over a month since I moved out of the property, and I have still received no clear response regarding the return of my deposit. Despite repeated attempts to obtain an update, communication has been poor and unhelpful. The most concerning aspect is that the agency’s advice has simply been to hire a solicitor in the hope that this might put pressure on the landlord. Rather than actively assisting in resolving the issue, they appear to have shifted the responsibility and cost onto the tenant. A letting agency should act professionally, communicate effectively, and help facilitate a fair and timely resolution of deposit matters. Unfortunately, this has not been my experience. I would advise prospective tenants to think carefully before using this agency.

GoogleI have had the pleasure of working with Tania since 2016 and she has consistently exceeded my expectations by delivering outstanding service. Her client-first mindset and determination have ensured that my apartment has never been vacant under her management. Tania always strives for win-win outcomes, balancing the needs of both landlords and tenants effectively. I cannot recommend Tania highly enough - she is truly exceptional at what she does.

TrustpilotAaron was an amazing help
Aaron was an amazing help. As soon as I spoke with him regarding re renting my flat he put me on the right 'track' in regards to everything I needed to do or not to do. The previous tenants left the flat in a real mess and Aaron recommended certain businesses that dealt with many of my concerns ie getting rid of rubbish, where to get an EPC from etc. As soon as the flat was ready to go on the market Aaron was able to muster up fifteen applicants whilst weedling out a few that weren't quite right for my flat. He got me an immediate offer which was a little more than expected which was great. Overall I had a great experience with Winkworth, would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone that would like to rent out their property.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Juliet. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Aaron is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

TrustpilotPoor. Data protection ignored, no-show for viewing appointment.
Very friendly contact via email with Abbie Greisman. My explicit request not to use my data for any marketing purposes was simply ignored though. We send agreed on a date for a viewing, for which I received an appointment reminder on 13/07. But nobody showed up at the property, and the error wasn't even acknowledged; Abbie referred to a much earlier email exchange from 09/07 though, suggesting that it was all our fault. Poor.

TrustpilotA Lettings agent who gives good advice & listens
Ben at Winkworths Clapham gave me good advice from his valuation visit through to finding me a tenant within 2 weeks of going on the market. I achieved close to the rental value advertised in a competitive market & the process was stress free because he listened to my requirements.
We’re delighted to hear you had a 5-star experience at Winkworth Clapham, Monique. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, we really appreciate it. Please let us know if we can assist you in the future.

I cannot recommend Aaron and his team highly enough - they are first rate, professional, knowledgeable and dependable. Any issues were ironed out quickly and Aaron went above and beyond to find a solution that left tenants, landlord and buyer happy. Aaron is extremely responsive, practical and a delight to deal with. I have dealt with other local agents over the years and Aaron is head and shoulders above the rest. He knows the market inside out and I wouldn't hesitate in renting my property with his team again.
Thank you so much for your kind words. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Aaron is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

GoogleI’m so incredibly grateful to both Tania and Jacquitta for their amazing support throughout my rental process. Jacquitta was patient, kind, and thorough when showing me properties, making me feel completely at ease and never rushed. When she went on leave, Tania stepped in seamlessly and guided me through the rest of the process with such care and attention. Tania’s prompt updates, clear communication, and genuine kindness made what could have been a stressful experience truly effortless. I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with both of them, they turned this journey into such a positive and memorable one. I can’t thank them enough and would highly recommend their agency to anyone looking for exceptional service.

Recently rented out my flat in Kensal Green with Winkworth Kensal Rise and am very happy with the service provided by Aaron Priscott and his team, from the initial consultation through to the tenants moving in. They are extremely professional and have a great knowledge of the market. They were able to get over the asking price (which I was definitely sceptical of), and provided me assistance with preparing the flat for renting as required. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to anyone.
Thank you so much for your kind words, Sophie. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Aaron is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

TrustpilotPoor experience
This review has taken me a while to write because the experience we had with both Winkworths and the landlords was incredibly disappointing. As tenants, we genuinely felt we were treated very poorly.
Good morning, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We were surprised to see this, as our understanding was that we'd parted on good terms following this matter as a landlord deciding not to proceed is out of our control and we remained in contact throughtout and after the rental fell through. As background, the property was originally marketed for sale. When a sale did not proceed, it was let instead, and tenants (yourselves) were found. Some months later, a previous viewer of the property returned with an offer to purchase, which we were legally obliged to put forward, and which the sellers accepted. This meant the letting could not go ahead as planned, which we appreciate was a frustrating outcome. We remained in contact throughout and understand any funds involved were returned in full. We're sorry this experience fell short of your expectations, but we do believe we acted fairly and transparently given the circumstances at the time. If you'd like to discuss this further, please do get in touch directly.

GoogleDavid C helped us through what was a complex property purchase and did so with real professionalism and patience. He kept us informed at every stage, handled complications without fuss, and was always easy to reach. Would recommend without hesitation.
Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear that David was able to support you through a complex purchase with professionalism and patience.

GoogleWe had a very unpleasant experience moving out of a property rented through this agency. - This Winkworth branch managed our deposit through DPS and at the end they significantly inflated the checkout report charges and advised the landlord to put pressure on us & make vague threats. - We had to dispute their charges through DPS, and in the end, they were only awarded less than 10% of what they originally claimed. - When the tenancy ended (we paid to end the tenancy early), they tried forcing us to move out a couple of days earlier than agreed, all while continuing to pay rent, on the basis of a very vague contract wording that gave them no basis. We strongly advise against using this agency.
Dear Mr Bozga, I was very sorry to read your recent review of our agency. As we had not received any prior communication of dissatisfaction, I would welcome the opportunity to understand and address the issues you have highlighted. It is highly unusual for us to receive such feedback, and I take all complaints seriously. I would therefore encourage you to submit your concerns through our official complaints procedure, which will allow me to investigate the matter thoroughly and review the circumstances surrounding your tenancy exit. I will ensure the complaints procedure is sent to you without delay so we can begin this process promptly. Jason Borrows Director

I have been a client of Winkworth for many years. I am a landlord. Throughout the time I have been with them. I had no problems renting out my property and the standard of the tenants was always excellent, due to them being thoroughly checked and sourced.The Letting Department is staffed with super professional guys who will always be at the end of the phone for help and advice.A particular shout out to Aaron Priscott, now Letting Director. and Frazer Cook. Thank you guys.

TrustpilotBuy a house from Thomas Syms
I was a first time buyer and a little apprehensive about buying a property. My agent, Thomas Syms, really understood what I was looking for very quickly and was able to suggest some suitable properties. He was also able to suggest some really good properties that were not what I thought I would like but were actually a very pleasant surprise! He has been encouraging and supportive throughout the long process and I was able to complete yesterday. Thomas is approachable and calm and definitely knows his field.

TrustpilotThomas has been a superstar throughout the first-time buying process!
Thomas has been a great help throughout the process of myself and my partner buying our first home. He's been with us from the very beginning of the purchase process (initial viewing) all the way through to exchange and completion. As first time buyers we didn't really know what to expect from the process, but Thomas has always been on hand to help us (helping with arranging last minute viewings with the seller and guiding us through the entire process). Thomas has helped to make what could have been a very stressful process as smooth as possible, which we are both extremely grateful for. Thank you Thomas!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Amy. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us, and we agree, Thomas is truly a gem to have on our team! We look forward to working with you again in the future!

Reece and Tim of Winkworths Woking have been amazing, I have been having problems with my solicitors on a property purchased through them. They have gone above and beyond for me and after 7 long months they have helped the situation along tremendously. I cannot recommend them highly enough, professional, friendly and above all proactive. Thank you so much

Aaron is totally different from other letting agents. He goes above and beyond to be helpful and works incredibly hard at building relationships with landlord and tenant. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and his team. It is very rare to find someone who goes above and beyond but Aaron does. I'd also like to praise Stanislava for her excellent administration of the process. As a landlord I will definitely be using them again. It is also rare for me to give this much praise but they definitely deserve it. Thank you Winkworth lettings team!

GoogleWe had an exceptional experience working with Winkworth. From start to finish, they were professional and knowledgeable. Charlie and David went above and beyond, providing us with valuable insights on the market, neighbourhood recommendations, and guidance on every step of the process. The entire process was smooth and stress-free. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Their commitment, expertise, and friendly approach make them outstanding real estate professionals.

GoogleThe team at this branch of Winkworth are all extremely helpful and professional and I have always felt extremely well-looked after by them, first as a landlord when they were managing a property on my behalf and then as a vendor when selling that same property. I would like to particularly thank Tania, David, and Charlie, all of whom have gone above and beyond in ensuring that my concerns were always addressed promptly and resolved efficiently. These three team members have been an excellent support to me throughout my property ownership and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Thanks for everything and all the best for the future!
Thank you Georgina, much appreciated. Best wishes!
