Knightons managed the rental of an apartment, in which I had a one third share, from 2017 until 2024. They found good tenants to occupy the flat. They promptly reported defects and required maintenance, and we were able to resolve these matters quickly and efficiently. When the time came to sell the apartment, Knightons handled the matter very well, even though it took many months to conclude the process. All my contacts at Knightons were polite and helpful....

AVOID !! Only giving one star because there isn't a zero star option. These guys took a holding deposit from us then took two weeks to confirm that the property was ours. When we asked 2 move in two weeks later than the original date they said no. When we asked for our deposit back they said no. Communication was absolutely abysmal throughout. I found the manager Nick to be mostly unavailable, did not respond to texts and emails for days and days and was quite rude when he finally did. 100 percent would NOT recommend.... Read more

Purchased a property with Knightons. John was very organised with viewings and had all the information that was needed for the property. He also progressed the sale along with no issues. I would highly recommend Knightons and will use them again.... Read more

John was great to deal with throughout the process apart from being let down with 2 days notice from moving into property leaving me disappointed and left to sort out returning a sofa, bed and wardrobes at expense to myself so close to Christmas. Highly unprofessional giving me 2 days notice via email that the property was no longer to be let and to let them know bank details to return deposit. Very dissatisfied with service led to believe the property was mine…... Read more

John Whitehead was totally supportive during the process of buying. He followed up our queries immediately and went above and beyond communicating between us and the seller. We sold through PB and although finding a buyer was quick, after that we had no contact from them even when asking direct questions and for support. They only emailed to remind us that their fee was due!!! Thank you John. Much appreciated and would recommend you to friends.... Read more

The showed us an unfinished home. We asked to see it when it was finished - they demanded a witholding deposit for "taking it off the market" (it was unmarketable with no carpets and damage to every surface). When we returned a month later, the house was still unfinished so we asked for the rerurn of our deposit. They stopped replying to emails and we will shortly be taking them to court.... Read more

I wouldn't recommend them. We wasted a month and a half on a property and had to quit pursuing it eventually, though we were promised that the house will be ready to move in before a specific date. The only responses we were getting during the process were "I'm chasing my colleague", "My colleague is chasing" etc. I strongly believe even if they were chasing Usain Bolt they would have had a better chance of catching him. They simply kept us in the dark. One word - Avoid.... Read more

We had a great service from Knightons, particularly from Nick Whiddon. He was extremely professional and very helpful. Always on hand to help and would always return calls straight away. In what is usually a difficult and frustrating process, Nick certainly made things run smoothly and straight forward. Our buyers even commented how much he had helped them too. Would definitely recommend their services. Thank you Nick . - Martina and Richard... Read more

I'm glad I chose Knightons for the sale of my house - A great service from Nick throughout the whole period. He made it as stress free as he could and was always there for advice and help. Not a keen lover of estate agents but this gave me hope that there are decent and honest ones out there ! Cheers Nick !... Read more

I've dealt with the guys at Knightons over the past 10 months or so while trying to sell my flat through the Covid crisis. The market for flats during this time has been somewhat slow but Knightons kept working hard to try and obtain a sale. I had concerns due to how quiet the market was at some point's while the wider market seemed buoyant but the team kept me updated on the market in general and we got there in the end while the market for flats in the area remains subdued. I've found the team to be reliable, hard working, honest and diligent not to mention reasonable on price compared to other agents I enquired with locally. They have managed the process the whole way through and have been very helpful throughout. They have been especially helpful considering I have not been on site while the flat has been "for sale", so they've managed all viewings etc in a responsible fashion. If you've got a property to sell in the area, I wouldn't hesitate to give John or Nick a call to discuss your needs.... Read more

Agent did not show up for a scheduled viewing. This is not professional , Contacting Knightons immediately I have been told that the agent is living a bit far away!!!!! I would say this was dishonest behaviour, never trust these agents. Avoid Knightons Estate Agents... Read more

I’m sorry to have to put public what I’ve been subject to be it has to be said !!! Felt with John from knightons , he has made me feel like second class citizen. Went to view a flat they had for rental in Woodford green, I was shown the flat to which I was please with . I knew I wanted it straight away so informed john at viewing . I was told to wait for a phone call back which never Ever came ! I rung on 4 different occasions and was told by john he is waiting for nick to come back to office which is fair enough but doesn’t take 5 days !?. The flat that they didn’t check my paperwork which would of showed I was well over needed criteria . I can only think that I was discriminated for reasons to do with my appearance. My appearance didn’t fit John’s criteria, to which why I was subjected to this discrimination. John would want someone that looks similar to himself in terms of race it seems . I am a well established plumber and gas engineer was a running successful business so I have no reason to lie and still don’t understand till now why I was never called back ? Don’t waste your time with the discriminative people ! You will be disappointed!... Read more

I have dealt with Knightons since 2002 when I first bought a flat that they were selling. I've dealt with them many times since for sales, purchases and lettings and have always found them to be very straightforward and easy to deal with. They're very prompt at resolving queries and I believe them to be equally fair to tenants & landlords at dealing with any issues. In particular, Nick's knowledge of all aspects of the estate agency business is second to none which is why he is respected by other local agents as well as clients, nothing is too much trouble for him and in a world where businesses come and go, it's a true testament to a local business that has stood the test of time! Thanks to you, John, Danielle, Rosemary and all staff, we will continue to use your services and recommend you. Best Wishes to you all x... Read more

They used to be a good agent, however in the last 2 years standards have slipped to unacceptable levels and I had to give my property to another agent. I am a landlord of a few properties, however only one in the Essex area that Knightons initially let only (3 years) and then let and managed (6 years) with a few breaks in-between when I renovated the property. From a property maintenance perspective, they were good, in particular Rosemary Harris and the handyman Burt were attentive, efficient and reasonable. The lettings however went from good in the first 7 years to so bad in the last 2 that I had to take my business elsewhere. Specifically my dealing with the Manging Director Nicholas Whiddon where he was very polite on the phone and in person, but then just ignored emails and never sorted things out. After one tenant left, they found a new one and took a deposit. About 3 months in the rent payment didn’t arrive. I chased and chased Knighton, no response to emails. I then call to which I was told time and time again they had the money from the tenant and due to new accounting “software” it hadn’t been paid and they will BACS transfer the money straight away. Nothing. Chased and chased again. Just before 2 months was overdue, both payments came through. This cycle repeated several times. Not what you want when you have bills to pay and I probably wasted cumulatively about a week of time. Then more than 2 months rent was unpaid at which point Nicholas said they were having problems with the tenant and they intended to start legal proceedings. I asked for the tenants details to speak to them directly – radio silence. I asked for a copy of the notice they issued the tenant – radio silence. I then contacted my solicitor who recommended I look through all the documentation I had been given to see if I could find the tenants details to start dealing direct. I found the number and email on the inventory check in report and spoke to the tenant to be told she hadn’t lived at the property for months! She put it in writing and I forwarded it on to Nicholas to then be told they switched tenants a few months back and it was the new tenant who couldn’t pay. I then got him to send me all the documents, spoke to the new tenant directly and agreed a payment plan, something he should have been doing or at least discussing with the tenant and me options. The old tenant had left 1 months rent arrears. This should not have been allowed to happen. Nicholas said he would get that from deposit. I chased and chased and chased for about 4 months. No payment. So that’s £800 gone. With the new tenant she started clearing her arrears, but then eventually stopped paying in and I just told her to get out and I wouldn’t pursue her legally. £2400 gone. All because they changed tenants without discussing it with me and not reference checking. I appreciate I only have one property and thus not a key client, but the level of service was so poor that I came and collected the keys, changed the locks, wrote off the money and moved on. Such a shame from what was a good estate agents. I would urge anyone thinking of using them to read my experience and have a good think on whether using them is a good idea.... Read more

I would not recommend this agency! I received an email from them telling me that they given the property we viewed to someone else. And thats fine. What was strange and dodgy is how they proceeded to tell us the amount of salary and payslips of the people who they gave the property to with so much ease! I am afraid of what this agency does with personal data and how easily for them is to dispense them around. Hope this is helpful for you all.... Read more

I have been renting from Knightons for a year and a half and have had a positive experience with them particularly with the lettings team. Can't speak for those buying as I rent but would recommend them. The helped me very much when moving to Buckhurst Hill which was a new area for me especially as I was moving with my dog. I love my home and hopefully will be here for the long hall (have just signed on for another year). They are also very unintrusive to me as tenant.... Read more
