Fantastic service

Fantastic service. I worked with Emma and Sam as my sole agents on my sale. I chose Savills as they gave a realistic and genuine valuation rather than an inflated one to win the mandate. Good communication throughout and active support till completion. I’d throughly recommend using Savills and team.

Good support from property managers

We've recently had really good support from Lauren (and also Sophie and Natasha) as our property managers, helping us navigate the challenges of having a water leak coming from our flat into the common parts of the building. Thank you all of you for helping solve the issue and also for going the extra step to ensure we were not over-charged. It is much appreciated.

I have just purchased a property which has been handled by Hayley Prescott. I have found Hayley's professionalism, to be of a very high standard, she has constantly kept me informed of developments and has communicated well. I would highly recommend Hayley for any future vendor or purchaser.

Impressive service from Savills

Savills recently completed a sale for me. The entire experience from the first meeting was professional, efficient and transparent . The level of initiative and responsiveness from the team was invaluable - especially Tessa who kept me informed at every juncture - often before I had even asked. The level of service that she gave and her friendly approach are rare offerings these days .

Had an issue with the light switch in my room not working and Harry from Savilles was prompt and professional in getting this sorted for me. I can’t fathom enough the level of good service I received from him, thank you once again 😊

Absolutely shocking service

Absolutely shocking service! 1) even though we had a signed contract to move into the rental in April, they informed us that the current tenant will be staying on and we were only going to be granted access the the property 12 June. The very day I was due to give birth to my first baby. I had to move house while having contractions.2) we repeatedly told Savills about repairs required to the property (broken tiles that had cut my childs foot, hot water and taps often not working, leaking showers, windows slipping open during a cold front) and when they finally sent a repair man to fix it he informed me that he had been given specific instructions by Savills to not repair most of it. The repair man then offered to fix the windows regardless as to have it jammed was against fire safety regulations and he found it ruthlessly cruel to leave a window broken when there was a 4 month old baby sleeping in that room. This was all during the worst cold front of the year3) upon our exit of the property when we moved to UK, Savills tried to make us pay for removal of items that had been left by the previous tenant4) Savills, on many occasions, were in breach of the rental contract T&Cs and repeatedly tried to charge us for things that had been specifically noted and agreed upon in the exclusions report we signed when we moved in.

We dealt with Harry Crisp whilst we were looking for a home. He was very professional and extremely helpful throughout the process. I would give him A+ rating as he was extremely supportive throughout the negotiations period and managed to get the deal done. Thanks Michael Malebysse-SmithPositiveProfessionalism

We sold our house through Savills Winchester office and had exceptional service. Haley Prescott was our agent and had a great knowledge of the market and the house needs in order to obtain a successful sale. I would really recommend her for her professionalism and responsiveness.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Savills of Stamford - bad experience

Our experience Savills agent in Stamford was not a good one. In our recent dealings with him we felt he was not only deceitful and unprofessional but also professionally negligent. Over several weeks he failed to return phone calls or respond to multiple emails, but then he knew he had omitted to tell us about subsidence in a property they were marketing. As a result, we ended up financially disadvantaged. Savills internal complaints procedure was fairly farcical to say the least, with laughable attempts to obfuscate. The legal advice we received was that we had a strong case for professional negligence but of course nothing is guaranteed and Savills made it clear they would look to recover their legal costs if we were unsuccessful in prosecuting our case. We just didn’t want to take the risk, but different times and different circumstances and we would have relished the opportunity to face them in a court of law. As it was we settled for a refund on some expenses and a £500 goodwill gesture - a fraction of what this experience cost us. There are good Estate Agents out there - but our experience suggests Savills in Stamford is certainly not one of them.Whatever Head of Customer Relation says in response to this review should be taken with a high degree of scepticism - this a company we now actively and strongly advise all our friends and acquaintances to avoid. Clearly there is a lot of background to this but I’m sure you can sense our dismay at having been treated so badly by a company we would have thought we could trust - but then their other review ratings should tell you something!

Expensive bad service

I rented a flat via Savills on a full management agreement. They were useless. They did not carry out the required regular checks unless I prompted them , so many different people working at the company and a huge turnover of staff . The check out was appalling they sub all the work out and they really do not care about the landlord . Will never use this company again . Very very poor .

Going into a tightening market, we considered that an agent with both depth and breadth of service would aid success, and we chose Savills. And so it proved. The viewing team were delightful. The lead agent, Robert, was shrewd and capable. The delivery team under Haley did a fantastic job at massaging and negotiatind a long-ish chain to a a result in a tightening market. This quality agent paid off for our relatively modest property.

Shocking service

I should note at the start of this review that the one star is solely for the management of the Green, rather than the accommodation itself. The flat I had was modern and nicely equipped, just a tad overpriced.However the management are shockingly poor, when we moved in we were told over messages that we would receive a welcome pack over email, however after several times chasing it still took days for us to receive this, which meant we struggled to get basic things like the heating and hot water turned on as it was not a simple system and we had no instructions anywhere. We also could not begin to setup any utilities as we were not informed which companies were used etc...During our time there, if we ever needed anything from the management (such as access to the meter for a meter reading) it would take several requests from us and days (or even weeks) before getting a response. If you try to phone the office 9/10 times there is no answer and WhatsApp messages were read and ignored.Partly due to this, we have decided to move out - and unfortunately the moving out procedure has been much of the same. We were given ZERO information on how to return keys etc.. and in the end I had to contact the office to ask what they wanted me to do. I was told that the check out would be done a couple of days after I moved out, and then it would be 3-5 days for the deposit to be returned to me. It has now been 10 days since I moved, and I have not had any response to messages asking how the checkout is going, and when I can receive my deposit back. I shall be lodging a complaint with Savills (who manage this location now) and if it goes on any longer I will go to the Ombudsman. This is ridiculous, I can understand delays in getting the deposit back but to have zero response from management is not acceptable.In summary, at the Green you will most likely get good quality accommodation but beware you get frustratingly poor service while there.

Exceptional Professionalism - Savills Winchester

We have just sold our house with Savills Winchester. They were brilliant to work it, in particular Robert Tottle and Jonathan Lacey. Their service from the first contact until the contract exchange was exceptional. Expert knowledge of the market, timely response to emails and texts. The buyers were carefully vetted making sure we did not have unsuitable viewings and offers. We are very please with Savills Winchester and highly recommend them to anyone.Thank you.

If you have the misfortune of having Jane Duka as your property manager, I strongly advise you to brace yourself for a frustrating experience. I've been dealing with a persistent mice problem for several months now, and despite my numerous attempts to seek assistance, I've received nothing but silence from Jane. My emails and phone calls have gone unanswered, which is a glaring example of her complete lack of professionalism and disregard for her tenants' concerns.

Danielle Melia

Danielle Melia has turned around several important projects at short notice for the two properties Savills manage for me in WInchester.One of these related to paperwork I needed for my tax return. However, the more important ones are a long list of issues that needed to be dealt with at one of the properties. I appreciated the speed, efficiency, and thoroughness of Danielle's solutions.

Deanna has been amazing over any issue we have had. She and Savills have been superb. Whether a new lawnmower, wind damage to the garden, or chasing me as I made an overpayment. I wish all agents could be as attentive to tenants.. Incredible service and attention to details

Fantastic Customer Service

I’ve had the misfortune to have dealt with multiple substandard estate agents previously so wasn’t expecting anything different from Savills, how wrong was I? From valuation to completion I have had nothing but premier customer service. I was kept informed at every stage. without prompting, by the team who displayed a uniquely friendly yet professional approach. I can honestly say I felt like I was their only client. Everyone was amazing but particular mention to Emily and Peter. Highly recommend!

Robert and the team at Savills were more than helpful, always professional and, although our purchase was protracted, always available or quick to return our calls.

We recently purchased a property through Savills that should have been a smooth process based on a small chain however for various reasons outside our or the buyers control it was far from it. Hayley was an angel and acted to keep our sellers calm and ensured we finally reached a completion date. Would absolutely return to Savills if we are brave enough to move again in the future!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

I dealt with Jess Exley while looking for an apartment in tillermans court for my aunt & her family. She was extremely sweet & cooperative, she always answered all our queries & doubts in a timely manner. The viewing experience was amazing, where she showed us not only the apartment but the whole building & it’s amazing facilities in the nicest of ways. She has always been super active in replying to our emails, attending our calls etc. Jess also did everything that we asked when it came to enquiries and setting us up so that we had the best possible deal & she helped us in making things simpler before handing us over to the building manager. I would highly recommend Jess as she’s my favourite go to agent whom I’ll always consider whenever I search for my own apartment anytime soon. Cheers!Alizeh.

Appalling property management company

Appalling property management company. DO NOT BECOME A SAVILLS TENANT. I was their tenant for nearly six years. It started with a condemned open fireplace with a legal sticker on it which they removed. I discovered this later from the previous tenant. Then we had a loose paving stone we complained about at every review. They fixed it a few days after my 89 year old aunt fell when it tipped. They offered no compensation under their public liability insurance. We also had window panes that were practically falling out of their frames which they never fixed. On top of that, took them over 3 months to fix the heating during this past winter. Those are just the worst events. The other thing they are known for is retaining as much of your rental deposit as possible. The previous tenant at the property was charged £25 for each light bulb that wasn’t working. They took over 5 weeks to return my deposit. Their final excuse was they could only return my deposit to the account it had come from - from nearly 6 years ago!Other reviews speak of their property manager’s don’t care attitude. I feel it’s worse than that. I feel their property managers are dismissive, obstructive, and lack integrity when it comes to “duty of care” with tenants. You’ll ask why I didn’t move sooner? I was diagnosed with cancer during this time and couldn’t. And yes, I did inform them.

Attention to detail

Keeping good, prompt-paying tenants happy is just as important as finding them in the first place. Aliya has helped bring our flat in N1 back up to a high standard, after a period in family occupation, arranging to fix lots of little niggles that family members don't notice. The tenants are happy; and so are we.
