I had the absolute pleasure of working with Global House Estates to sell my home, and I can't recommend them highly enough! The entire process was seamless, professional, and stress-free from the initial valuation right through to completion. A special thank you goes to Rania, the agent I worked with throughout the sale. She was simply fantastic!
Rania went above and beyond to keep me informed every step of the way, especially with her regular updates and detailed feedback after every viewing. This level of communication gave me complete confidence throughout the process, knowing exactly how things were progressing. She was always available to answer my questions and made what can often be a stressful experience so much easier.
Her expertise, dedication, and warm, positive attitude were key to the successful sale of my property. If you're looking for an agency that delivers outstanding service with a personal touch, Global House Estates is the way to go!... Read more

I switched one of our apartments to Globalhouse to manage about 18 months ago and we have just switched our other one.
Globalhouse have been great and a significant improvement on our previous agent.
They are very responsive, have given good market advice and the administration and processes are very slick and timely.
We couldn’t not be more pleased.

Best letting agency
I dealt with the London branch and I am absolutely impressed with how well organised and structured their services are. Provided by professional, friendly and lovely agents.
Starting from viewing the property to the check out communication was swift and clear. A lot of support provided from information on renting guidance to check out inventory, repairs services with a hotline. The repairs service could be through a link or a WhatsApp messaging line. They usually respond immediately and raise the job to the trades person or company they deal with. Most repairs were solved in a short time frame. They also send property care guide at the beginning of winter to flag any issues related to the weather.
I got the impression that the agency is really good at ensuring both parties (the landlord and tenant ) are satisfied with any dealings or requests.
Moreover, the contract they provided was comprehensive and detailed with no hidden clauses or vague statements. Everything was clearly stated ensuring our rights are protected as well as our duties as tenants clearly communicated.
I definitely recommend this agency... Read more

Rania at Global House Estates was the best estate agent we could hope for. She gave us a wonderfully personal service, her knowledge of the local market was exceptional and she achieved close to our target price for our flat at a very competitive time. She was friendly, clear and helpful through the whole process, managing all the details of a complex sale, even taking care of arranging a contractor to fit a replacement boiler at short notice. We are very glad we used Global House Estates rather than one of the better-known chains, because they really cared about the outcome. For clarity, persistence, warm communication and attention to detail we can't recommend GHE highly enough.... Read more

I have been purchasing my first flat via Global House Estates, with the able assistance of Rania. The experience has been positive from the start - swift responses to viewing requests or queries, good info provided and clear and regular communication throughout. Rania has definitely gone above and beyond what I imagined may be the role of an estate agent in a sale, including and especially after my offer was accepted. She seems to be juggling her multiple obligations really well to keep all parties happy - vendor, me and by extension, GHE! I am happy to have had Rania's involvement in what is a very anxiety-ridden process, particularly for a first time buyer! My occasional contact with others at GHE was also positive.... Read more

Worst rental experience of my life.
Property was extremely mouldy and GHE did very little to resolve this. I submitted a letter from my doctor because I developed asthma from the mould but no resolution was offered other than cleaning the trickle vents, sending us bleach and the purchase of a second large dehumidifier (where we were expected to pay for all the electricity- £75 per month extra per dehumidifier).
The agents clearly want to make as much money as possible with little regard to their legal requirements to ensure a safe environment for their tenants.
There was clearly a deep structural issue as the walls would be wet in the morning and no amount of cleaning/dehumidifier could get it under control. You can see in the third photo spots that look like oil - this was mould that covered every wall of the flat. We had to throw out a lot of possessions as they were mould damaged. In total we think we spent over £3,000 on the mould problem. GHE refused to pay for a cleaning to get this under control.
I wish we had never rented with GHE as it’s done lasting damage to our physical health. I’ve rented in London for 8 years but this has been head and shoulders worse than any other property. GHE have no redeeming qualities.... Read more

The worst experience I've ever had with an estate agent. We were previously managed by a different company and switched about 6 months ago, and everything following that was an absolute nightmare. Our flat needed serious repairs and GHE entirely ignored them and blamed us for serious structural issues with the flat. I don't even know if they let the landlord know about the issues. I've also never met more dismissive and rude people - they were entirely unsympathetic about us living in really poor and unsafe conditions; they even disregarded a note from a doctor about health and safety....

(1 star as you can't leave 0)... Took over from a previous agent toward the end of tenancy. It was a constant barrage of disconnected inspection requests and failed repairs. Topped off with baseless claims against security deposits (after 6 years of tenancy) without even having a copy of the original inventory.
Needless to say, after that shocking experience I will never use GHE again.... Read more

Their lack of assistance and the automated annual leave email we received while trying to get our deposit back only added to the frustration.

Our experience was an unfortunate ordeal. We’re a couple trying to find a house. We have jobs and can’t view during all hours of the day. The agent typically took several days to reply and unfortunately didn’t provide us any flexibility in the viewing time slots, far below peers. We ultimately had to give up viewing the property, which was unfortunate also for the seller as it reduces the available market opportunities.... Read more

After a horrendous experience looking for a flat in London with dodgy and unreliable agencies, GHE provided a breath of fresh air with punctuality, professionalism and competence. I would like to specifically thank Thomas for going out of his way to help me not become homeless! He's a true up and coming star in GHE and has a great career path ahead of him due to his compassion and people skills. I am only giving 5 starts because of him; in reality, I would have given 3 or 4: GHE needs to work on their admin organization and response time (if you get a response from their office admin at all). Overall, I highly recommend and would use the agency again when I decide to move/buy.... Read more

BE CAREFUL - NOT PROFESSIONAL - Not recommended
We got in touch with Ruben at the end of 2020 because of an apparently great flat in a new building area in London.
Since we knew that there was a lot of construction going on in this region and we both work from home, we asked MULTIPLE TIMES (since it was not possible to visit the flat ourselves due to travel restrictions) about the noise pollution. In the advertisement NOTHING was communicated about any noise nuisance or anything else, now we know why!
We were assured that it was 'minor construction work' and would not be a major nuisance.
Now we are sitting in this flat, living in the middle of a construction site that makes the flat basically uninhabitable for 2 home office employees due to the daily and EXTREMELY LOUD demolition noise and are chained to the contract until the end of 2021.
We tried to find a solution but both Ruben and Edmond absolutely did not see this as their problem, which makes us extremely sad.
We would therefore NEVER EVER AGAIN use the service of Global House Estates, cannot recommend it and are extremely devastated.... Read more

They were very patient and worked with us very well. Couldn't recommend highly enough.
Also as per another review, it is not illegal for a landlord to withdraw an offer prior to the agreement being signed if they have another higher offer come in. It is only illegal once the contract is signed and money exchanged.... Read more

I had a fast paced move to London, and dropped into Global House on the day. I am used to rudeness and patronising behaviour from agents, however Lily was incredibly helpful, listened to what I was actually after and was incredibly quick to arrange viewings. She was very knowledgeable on each flat, and felt both personable and trustworthy - she gave honest comparisons to her portfolio vs other agencies, even admitting I had found a good deal elsewhere! I ended up signing elsewhere, but I am certain that it would have been a far less stressful experience had I stuck with Lily. When looking to rent again it will be the first agents I go back to.

This happened in July 2017 but when I sorted messages on my mobile, I found Ruben's text and it made me decide to write here because I believe people should know what he's really like and what he's really thinking. Have a look at his text below.
Is he serious? Like I'm viewing properties 'for fun'? Like he's the 'only' estate agent who's 'very' busy? Like I'm not serious about making offer?
This is highly inappropriate and very arrogant. I had my standards, taking many things into account which made me view so many properties as I know that area far better than he is. But he was sulky and grumpy because I didn't take his properties and got mad at me which is really unprofessional of him.... Read more

I have known Anthony for the past 5 years when i started looking for a rental property in docklands. I have not known a single agent who has been a patient listener to the tenants needs as opposed to trying to sell a property what the agent would usually have on their books. From the first time i met Anthony he has always maintained a professional approach of keeping his client abreast of the market. His approach as an agent is humane . He makes sure that both the tenant and the landlord are a perfect match in any deal. This is the third time Anthony has found me a home and i would say without hesitation that he is one of the most knowledgable agent i have worked with in his areas of lettings expertise. He is always available to listen to any issues that arise with the tenancy and very swift to act on them. He has a keen eye to detail on all aspects surrounding the tenancy. He is definitely one of the most personable agents and i wish him all the success in the future.... Read more

My flatmates and I had a very good experience with Global House Estates. We recently rented a flat in Elephant and Castle. We are students from abroad we were unable to travel to London in the summer in order to arrange viewings and search for a flat. We spoke with one of the agents - Lilly - who was very kind and quickly responded to all our questions. In the beginning we were very nervous about renting a flat without actually seeing it. However, she was happy to arrange a skype viewing and she showed us in detail all rooms! The flat is amazing and the communication with the agency was so easy!... Read more

We were initially shown around the 2 bed flat in Elephant and Castle by Lily, who was more than happy to answer all of our many questions. Lily was friendly and seemed keen to help us find a property instead of some agents who are clearly pushing you to rent from them. All of our emails or phone calls were answered promptly and we were kept updated on every stage of the process. Lily, and later Andy, fully explained elements of the renting process which we, as first time renters, were unaware of or did not fully understand. Global House Estates managed to reduce the stress of finding, renting and moving into a property through their friendly approach and considerate correspondence. They provided us with excellent service. I would definitely recommend using Global House Estates and will look to use them again in the future.... Read more

Ed is an extremely knowledgable and patient agent.
He was like our personal advisor and went out of his way to research homes that would fit our criteria and budget, prepared comparable market pricing analysis and gave us valuable advice to help us buy a home in an extremely competitive market.
Ed was always extremely responsive, thorough, and prepared multiple offers for us in a short amount of time. It took us about 4 months to find a home, Ed was very patient and kept us positive during our search and showed us dozens of homes.
He also coordinated home inspections for us, reviewed the findings and provided us good advice. He has an in depth understanding of the legal terms & conditions.
I recommend Ed to anyone who is looking for a full service, personal approach to the home buying process without the high pressure of other companies.... Read more

Global House Estates were very professional, honest and a great lettings agency to deal with as a pair of young tenants making their first foray into the renting market.
The flat viewing was informative and they were very forthcoming about both the pros and cons of the property. They are very responsive to queries about the property and requests for support, having a good direct relationship with the landlord. When we had an issue with the flat oven, they had sent a technician over within 2 days and had the entire oven and hobs changed within the week. The personable nature of the agents (especially Anthony) inspires confidence, and as a new agency they do their best to provide the best service. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to rent property, especially young renters who are not wisened up and do not want to be exploited.... Read more

The process was handled with much professionalism. Communication was constant, and on a daily basis.
The system is quite handy as one can follow the process / the status of the referencing. Also Anthony and Lilly were available at any time to give an update and advise about the next step(s).
While moving in, we noticed that the appartment was very well cleaned by a team of professional and we only needed to do the painting on our own as this was not included in the agreement. We are awaiting for the renewal of the floor, but with our positive experience so far, we trust this will be done in due time at the earliest.
Thank you for a good service and working closely with the 'tenants to be' in order to get all arranged at the earliest possible time!... Read more

Initially, I was sceptical about using an independent estate agent. However, the benefits of an independent business soon became apparent. The GHE team are friendly, insightful and knowledgeable, but most importantly, they take pride in their work and can respond to problems in a flexible manner. Whilst I was on holiday plumbing issues arose in a house I was renting. GHE promptly resolved this for me in a cost effective way with minimal hassle/stress to me. I cannot recommend GHE enough, and they will be the only agents I will use going forwards!... Read more
