I rented with Hellas-Helvetia for over two years, and my experience was nothing short of excellent. Steven, Eleni, and Catherine were always extremely responsive and helpful throughout my tenancy. Their professionalism and prompt support gave me great peace of mind, knowing I could rely on them whenever needed. The team made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and I would highly recommend Hellas-Helvetia to anyone looking for a reliable and supportive letting agency. Thank you for making my renting experience so positive!... Read more

During our 7-year tenancy we dealt with both Eleni and Steven at Hellas-Helvetia and we have received helpful, courteous, professional and super quick assistance. They have always been able to sort our issues (standard maintenance and small repairs, mainly) efficiently and in a positive way.
They have always been very quick and proactive in replying to our messages and have given us the maximum flexibility possible when we sadly decided to leave the property.
No doubt I would strongly recommend Hellas-Helvetia. A+.... Read more

I was a tenant with Hellas-Helvetia for over 3 years and I have nothing but high praise for the entire team! They have always been super helpful and quick to respond, especially Elena! They are all incredibly friendly and provided amazing assistance when going through a tough time in finding a new property with them. They made my move to London over 3 years ago a lot less endearing than I told myself it would be and I’ll be forever grateful. If I am ever in the area again, I’ll make sure to reach out to Steven and the team first!... Read more

Steven at Hellas Helvetia is simply fantastic! When I wanted a market appraisal of my property for sale, Steven was more than happy to assist and give his honest helpful advice on what could help increase the chances of me finding a buyer. Following his advice he found me a buyer super fast and then walked me through the whole sale process from start to finish making my sale experience less stressful than previous times with other “big” agents. Thank you for being so helpful Steven.... Read more

Steven has given me exceptional levels of service in the last few months up to and including letting my flat for me. The flat needed a wholesale renovation, and Steven provided names of local contractors (builders, roofer, architect/planning) and advice on how to design the flat in order to make it suitable for letting to his typical client base. He gave huge amounts of his time kindly and enthusiastically and came to the building site for updates and to help me deal with issues with the contractors. His guiding and supremely experienced hand was invaluable on issues relating both to the renovation and the letting. He gave extremely knowledgeable advice on the rent I could receive and himself made the flat look attractive for the marketing process. He has found me a lovely tenant and an optimal rent and I am very grateful to him.... Read more

Hellas Helvetia has made investing in Bayswater a profitable business for us. With his wealth of experience in managing residential real estates, Mr Steven Kalogroulis gave us the invaluable advice of upgrading the interior of our flat under a tightly controlled budget. He personally supervised the work and dealt with unforeseen issues such as water pipe bursts and pest control. Our flat was rented out immediately when the rental market was challenging. This year the tenant has agreed to a raise due to energy price shocks. Hellas Helvetia has our full confidence. We look forward to many years of cooperation with Mr Kalogroulis.... Read more

I cannot recommend Hellas Helvetia enough !
The team (Steven and Eleni in particular) are very helpful and responsive.
Whatever the issue, they always came to the rescue (including locking myself out in the evening; breaking my contract earlier because I moved overseas etc.). From the first time I interacted with them for a first visit until after I left the flat Steven has shown nothing but integrity, professionalism and great sympathy. I thank them again for a great stay and hope to deal with them in the future.
Five stars for a great service and an amazing team!... Read more

TERRIBLE!! Do not go here, do not even call!!!!!! I just called to ask about a flat. treated me very rudely and disrespectfully as a woman. I was shocked. He threatened me. I said I could make a one-year payment in advance for this flat also I said I have my own Ltd company. He mocked me and said he didn't believe I had my company. It's interesting how he don't believe because of my voice. I will send my documents before contracting the flat at finish anyway. What right does he have to say I don't believe you? he also lied while giving information about the flat that the flat was kept. While we are on phone I had a friend with me and he told me something. The guy (owner agency) said that he wanted to have a video chat with that person and that he would call immediately. I am really surprised at such disrespectful behavior. This is never a professional real estate company. After reading the comments, I saw that other people were experiencing the same thing. He said that competitor companies wrote to them in reply, but they are lying. landlords do not give your flat here.... Read more

AWESOME agency!! I came across Hellas-Helvetia by chance three years ago and I always felt lucky to have them manage the flat I was renting.
They have proved to be a truly exceptional estate agent - professional, straightforward, very attentive to the tenant while at the same time really friendly and approachable.
During the three years of interacting with them I had only positive experiences. Anything that required attention in the flat was dealt with immediately. The deposit was returned in full and very promptly. To sum it up in one sentence - great service from the start to the end of the renting process!!
Big THANK YOU to all the amazing people who work there!! Your efficiency and excellent work does make renting easy!
Very special thanks to Eleni and Steven for being super helpful, supportive and so generous with your time and experience! Much appreciated!!
I would definitely be using Hellas-Helvetia in the future if I'm looking for a flat in that area again!... Read more

I can't recommend the Hellas Helvetia team highly enough; Steven in particular was tremendously helpful throughout my rental period - from the first viewing to any urgent requests and the key handover at the end.
I don't know many agents who would come by your flat on a Saturday night, after you locked yourself out of your apartment, but Steven is one of those rare individuals!
The whole team really puts the customer (i.e. renter) first and is always trying their very best to help. 5 stars... Read more

Our flat had been on the rental market for some six months with other agents. But due to Covid they were not very active so had no success. They simply seemed uninterested in the current conditions. We had pretty much given up. Then Hellas-Helvetia came along. They DRESSED the flat, made it look quite incredible and found a quality tenant in about 10 days. Very impressed with their service!...

The relationship with all Hellas Helvetia was perfect: fair and correct. When there was some small problem they hurried to solve it.

This agency is incredible! My partner, our dog, and I have had such wonderful experiences with everyone who works there, and we are so grateful to have found them! We moved to London from the U.S. this past summer, and Steven and Eleni made our move so simple and stress-free, helping us to navigate the differences in renting in the UK and replying to every question promptly and professionally. In the midst of a stressful international move, Hellas-Helvetia was a godsend, and we continue to find them so kind and helpful as our landlords.
One of the most important qualities for us as renters is that everyone in the agency is a true dog lover (especially Steven, who is wonderful with our dog) and welcomed us to this pet-friendly flat with such enthusiasm. They helped us find a couch cover for the leather couch (so that our dog can sit on it) and encouraged us to have it delivered to their office ahead of our move. Steven even put the couch cover on the couch so that everything would be ready for us when we moved in!
I would recommend this company to all of my friends, and especially to pet owners! Thank you, Steven and Eleni for your exceptional work.... Read more

Superb estate agents. I have been renting my property periodically through Hellas Helvetia for over ten years. I have always been provided impeccable levels of service and attention from Steve and Eleni. They have always gone above and beyond to find me superb tenants and have taken good care of my property while i work overseas throughout this time. They have been highly responsive to any requests i have made [for example getting remedial work done on my flat] and i have never had any issues. As a property owner it is important to me to have professional agents looking after my property. Steve and Eleni have always met my requirements for tenants and offered me sound professional advice on renting my flat. They are a small agency and with that comes personalised and focused levels of service. I honestly would not use another agent in the area.... Read more

Our washing machine broke down and within 24 hours an engineer was there and then the following day a new machine was installed!! The team is absolutely amazing and so easy to communicate with and the Manager Steven is always available if required.

NEVER GO TO THIS AGENCY!!!!! To be honest, I don't even think it's an agency, it's more a kind of small organisation. It looks like it's going to collapse at any minute. They overcharged you over everything, are incompetent, hardly answer to demands, and are so slow at doing their job. I can assure you, it has nothing to do with the big agencies you find on the market. There is hardly any staff there: 3 or 4 people working under the rule of a DICTATOR (the manager who is a disrespectful and horrible human being). I talked to other tenants who had problems with them (one was actually denied access to his flat). I wish I had looked at the reviews before. By the way, the only 2 good review you see on google are from the staff (JOKE). STAY AWAY!!... Read more
