I have met Daniel Berber when I was looking for a place to rent. I’ve been here in the UK for 3months and it’s quite hard to search and look for house to rent. Of all the agents I’ve met, he’s the only one I’ve given a google review. This is because he is the BEST! He was incredibly communicative! Very warm and approachable. He will answer calls and emails and will keep you informed about the development/ progress. I would definitely recommend him and will not hesitate to come back to him in case I need to search for properties to rent again. He is amazing! He also provided support beyond just the transaction/negotiation. His genuine care is within him and he is simply the best.
Foxton is lucky to have him, same with all the clients he helped and he will help in the future.
Keep it up Daniel!... Read more

Update: Whilst their ex landlord is fine about handing back the deposit Foxtons are now trying to double dip on the brokerage fees by re renting this apartment to another couple. It doesn’t cost Foxtons £1000 in their time to find new people nor does it make any sense that they should be compensated for refusing to fix the hot water at place they are responsible for letting.
Foxtons is a company that is bullying international people into 24 month contracts, giving them false information about the rental market and even suggesting they pay more LMAO.
Contrary to their flamboyant statements that places go in a day the Guildford market is not that hot and listings do tend to hang around for a few weeks to a month.
It’s ludicrous to imagine that Foxtons having failed to manage the property having engineers not show up and saying to tenants oh the landlord can’t be arsed to buy a new boiler or invest in the property so live with it should then have the audacity to double dip on fees.
I’m writing this review because my friend has been treated badly by this company. She had to move out because the landlord refused to fix the hot water which is a legal obligation of a landlord to do so. Foxtons found another tenant but is now withholding her deposit to cover additional fees. Foxtons knows full well the obligations that are the landlords responsibility yet allowed this landlord to behave in a manner that is sub par. Foxtons failed to communicate additional charges to her in advance and it screams money grab. They should have forfeited their own fee as they brokered a property that isn’t compliant with the UK rental standards. It was their job in the first place on the moving in check to ensure that there was adequate hot water at the property.
Another thing I found shady was that they made sure everything was off the record communicating to them that the landlord can’t arsed to fix issues. They did this so when they double dipped on fees they punished my friend for daring to vacate an inhabitable property. They didn’t need to double dip on fees and it’s super upsetting they did this to a friendly Canadian couple. It’s sleazy behaviour of an estate letting agency so when I come to buy a property in Guildford in the premium price bracket I will be contacting Hamptons not Foxtons.
If you are seeking to rent in Guildford and you are not from here avoid this lousy company and go to the ten other estate agents in town like Hamptons. They aren’t to be trusted.... Read more

Foxtons Review
0 Stars is not an option but for Foxtons they should make an exception.
This is one of the worst companies I've ever had to deal with. Every person we've had to deal with came across as ignorant, lazy, or incompetent.
They let an uninhabitable property without doing a proper inspection or going on site themselves. They claim they did but...
When we got there, the flat hadn't been thoroughly cleaned, the hot water does not work, there is almost no water pressure, the smoke detector was not functional, the kitchen curtains are a fire hazard, there is mold in the flat, the shower doesn't work, and the toilet had been replaced but improperly installed. None of this matched the pictures posted by Foxton's website and was completely misrepresented.
They also use underhanded and high pressure tactics to try and close the deal and did not explain our rights and options for a contract. They care purely about volume of customers not about quality of listings or level of service they provide after a deal.
They will not respond to emails or phone you back. You will have to repeatedly call just to get through, only to have them fob you off with some excuse or pass you on to someone else. We've had contact with at least 7 people on their side and exactly one of them did what they said they would do.
From a dedicated maintenance "professional" who doesn't know how to schedule and does not follow up to ensure the job was completed to a senior property manager that I wouldn't trust to oversee a dollhouse who constantly "delegates" but doesn't take accountability or follow up when there has been no reply for days from their representative, anyone we dealt with was a complete nightmare.
When I read articles like "Foxtons has come under fire after a couple found their estate agent had signed them up to lease the wrong property" or "Foxtons charged us £4,000 to find totally unsuitable tenants", I can only think to myself; that sounds like them.
If you are forced to deal with them, God help you, since nobody from Foxtons will.... Read more

If I could give this company zero stars I would.
I was looking for a place to live from abroad and regrettably chose Foxtons to aid in my quest to find a place to live prior to starting University in September.
The place I moved into was not as advertised, with the pictures clearly taken when the property was in much better shape.
Upon arrival the place clearly had not been professionally cleaned with dirt and grime throughout. There were cobwebs in the windows, and mold in the bathroom. The hot water and shower was non-functional - something that I raised with Foxtons immediately.
Thus began 30 days of trying to get Foxtons to rectify the situation. Two plumbers came through the property with the second one declaring that the water pressure was abysmal and that it would be substantial work and costs in order to rectify the situation. The landlord refused to fix the problem and essentially Foxton's response to the ongoing concerns were: you signed the contract and that's how it's always been (state of the property).
Ross Henderson was the original realtor I was working with who pushed me to sign the lease on a property that I had not seen in person. He took advantage of my lack of knowledge of the area, and pushed me to offer above the asking price and for a longer term - making it seem that if I didn't I would "lose out" and not find a place to live by the time I arrived in the UK.
Hidaya, the property manger's competency leaves much to be desired. She continued to fail in her role to rectify any of the problems I raised, while often ignoring my calls and emails, and simply stating that "the landlord refused to fix the water issues", passing the blame and trying to separate herself from her obligation to actually do something constructive.
Thankfully I was able to leave the property after a miserable month, and was told multiple times that I would receive my deposit back given the situation and that I had been living at the property for less than 30 days. However, the landlord now refuses to give my deposit back which is illegal, and Foxtons has the audacity to charge me for a breach of contract on a property without functional hot water and a shower!
Overall, Foxtons employs and promotes devious behaviour, relying on deception, pressure, and falsehoods when conducting their business while only caring about making money and taking advantage of clients who may not know their rights as tenants.... Read more

At short notice and 2 landlords to deal with Dan B made it all happen on the right day for the right price.
This is the second time Dan has found me a flat exactly where i wanted to be.
No hesitation in recommending Foxtons and Dan in particular, the receptionist should also get a mention in dispatches, always smiling and willing to help.
Thank you team.... Read more

I recently had the pleasure of working with Alexandre Demilecamps during my house hunting process, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Alexandre was incredibly attentive and professional, always going above and beyond to ensure that my needs and preferences were met. His extensive knowledge of the market and keen eye for detail helped me so much. Alexandre’s dedication, patience, and genuine interest in my satisfaction made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable. If you are looking for an estate agent who truly cares about his clients, Alexandre is the one to call!... Read more

After couple of months of intense house search, we came across Ross Henderson who has been exceptionally helpful. His commitment is incomparable to other agents we worked with which has put us at ease and helped us feel hopeful during this busy season. Ross is knowledgeable, confident and has a great, adaptable sense of humour, those combined - natural qualities in an agent make looking for a house much less of a chore. We hope he will get appreciated and rewarded the way he deserves.... Read more

Property listings are matched to data from the Land Registry by our clever algorithm. Clever as it may be, it isn't always right, especially if a property was listed by multiple agents. The asking price is the original listing price, NOT the final listing price.
