Not professional. After scheduling a 5pm viewing ( 9 Brechin Court) on a Tuesday a week in advance, the agent calls me around lunch time confirming the viewing, which I confirmed. At 4:55 (as I am 1 minute away the property) agent calls and says that the viewing is not possible and need to reschedule. They do not give a strong enough reason. The reason is the house at the moment is “not in a viewing condition”. No follow ups, not the slightest customer care shown. They need to understand their job and do that properly! Highly unprofessional, would not recommend this. Poor management, poor agents leading to a very unpleasant experience.... Read more

I just bought my first house and I am very grateful and satisfied with the winkworth company, especially with the two agents Nicola and Trudy who helped me and made my job very easy. For every question I had, I received answers in a timely manner and the agents were very kind and understanding. I suggest to everyone that if you want to buy or rent Winkworth is the right company. Thank you all !... Read more

Nicola and the team has been exceptional during our property journey. As first-time buyers, we were quite anxious, but she provided invaluable support and guidance every step of the way. Her proactive approach in chasing both sides of the purchase made the lengthy process much more manageable. Highly recommended!... Read more

Winkworth: The Agent You'll Regret Trusting
My encounter with Winkworth was more like a horror story than a tenancy agreement. Right from the start, their neglectful attitude towards my concerns set the stage for disaster.
Despite my relentless reports and pleas for maintenance, they turned a blind eye and even had the audacity to blame me for their shortcomings. As if that wasn't enough, their attempt to pin unfair charges on me during the deposit dispute was the final straw.
Having to drag them kicking and screaming to the Deposit Protection Service wasted countless hours of my precious time, all because of their incompetence. And let's not forget their little escapade of unauthorized entries and mail tampering – a major breach of trust.
Oh, and did I mention the delightful surprise of finding someone had cooked in the kitchen and left behind a pack of noodles? It seems amateur chefs aren't the only thing you'll have to worry about with Winkworth.
Winkworth? More like Wink-what?! If you enjoy waiting forever for a response or being charged for things that were broken before you even arrived, then they're your go-to.... Read more

Winkworth and in particular James Hathaway, are forgive the pun, the 'Jewel in the Crown' when compaired to many agents.
As a landlord they tick all the right boxes whilst managing our let properties in Reading.
Just as importantly, they go out of their way to look after our tenant's who by result renew more often than not.
Can't recommend them highly enough to new andlords and potential tenants.... Read more

Had a terrible experience with James from reading branch. My babies weren't well so i requested to move the viewing by 15 minutes. Didn't agree citing busy schedule, when i reached after a 35 mile drive, received a call that the tenant isn't letting us in. Later they apologised and said they would arrange for a video viewing. It was a Saturday and Monday morning mailed that both properties are gone. This is extremely unprofessional behavior. House hunting is tough and such agencies further compound the trouble....

I recently had the pleasure of working with Winkworth while searching for my new apartment. From the beginning, they were incredibly professional and attentive to my needs.
The agent (Ayisha) demonstrated a deep understanding of the market and provided valuable insights that helped me make an informed decision. They were always available to answer my questions and went above and beyond in ensuring that the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Thanks to Ayisha, I found the perfect apartment that met all my expectations. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a new home!... Read more

Excellent service in the short time we have used them to look for rented accommodation. They seem to know their niche market in finding the nicest properties and not just taking anything. We had a particularly excellent service from Joe who was the person that showed us around a few properties, he did his research and was very helpful and friendly when possible. He was also honest and straight to the point, great qualities. Thanks Joe.... Read more
