22nd Jan 2026 (9 mo. ago)We saw a property for let online, and last week my partner reached out to the agency to request a viewing and ask what documents were needed for the application. We were told we’d get an email with the details, but never received a response.
After ome week I followed up asking for both a reply and a viewing, but again, nothing. Honestly, it’s not surprising the property has been on the market for almost a year—prospective tenants shouldn’t have to chase basic communication.
Because of this lack of professionalism and responsiveness, we decided to look elsewhere and won’t be dealing with this agency.
7th Feb 2024 (2 years ago)Luke from Davis & Gibbs has been extremely helpful with our property search. Highly recommend!
12th Jun 2026 (21 weeks ago)Dexters have been excellent in assisting me with the purchase of the property. Sally Thorpe was highly professional and very speedy in dealing with all issues. Thank you very much!
11th Sep 2025 (1 year ago)I have a rental property in Herne Hill. It is also my home when I am in the UK. When I am in the US, it is important to me that my property in the UK is managed professionally and at a reasonable cost.
Oliver Burn and Aldo-Marco, their Senior Property Management & Accounts Manager is on-it, both for routine and/or exceptional circumstances. Importantly, Oliver Burn support my tenants so that my property is looked after.
If you are looking for property management, especially when out of the country, I recommend Oliver Burn.
27th Aug 2026 (11 weeks ago)They are ver amazing and very helpful
15th Oct 2026 (25 days ago)Can’t recommend them highly enough. Extremely friendly, professional and proactive. Everything that we could have wanted.
11th Jun 2026 (22 weeks ago)Unresponsive and no one ever answers calls or emails. Impossible to discuss or even view a property. I don't understand how they're in business and why they manage all of Southwark commercial properties?
14th Jul 2025 (1 year ago)I was impressed by these guys. They really seem to understand my area very well.
15th Oct 2026 (25 days ago)Was struggling to look for the perfect flat for months until I got in touch with Aston, absolutely an amazing experience having him as my agent. I would really recommend calling Nelson estates up if you’re looking for a property around the area and haven’t had much luck. I have already referred multiple friends over, absolutely recommend this real estate agency and especially my agent Aston!!
27th Oct 2026 (13 days ago)What I particularly appreciate about Upper Class Estates is the combination of professionalism and a genuinely approachable team. Their communication has been thoughtful, clear and well organised, and I have really valued the care they have shown in our recent discussions.
They have taken the time to understand what matters to us, explain the next steps and suggest a practical way of reviewing the results together. That attention to detail is reassuring. I especially appreciate being included in the process and knowing that our feedback is welcome.
For me, good property management means understanding that the place you manage is someone’s home. The team’s considerate and constructive approach has made a very positive impression on me. There is a real value in being able to have an open conversation and agree on a clear way forward together.
Thank you to everyone at Upper Class Estates for your help and professionalism. I would happily recommend the team to anyone who values clear communication, a personal approach and people who take the time to listen.
17th Jan 2022 (4 years ago)What a different way to sell a home, with supportive, gentle and trustworthy people. We’d been mulling over the idea of relocating out of London for years and even discussed putting our home on the market with Unique previously. What we like is that there is no big sales pitch, no pressure to sell, just listening and responding. But more importantly, keeping both our buyers and us calm, communicative and friendly throughout the sale, so it felt as smooth as it could possibly be. We’re not planning to do move again any time soon, but we’d definitely use Unique if we were.
1st Sep 2026 (10 weeks ago)We lived at a property managed by 1st Choice Estates for 2 years. From the start they were helpful and managed to find a good place at a relatively affordable price. Ade and Dominic in particular were responsive and respectful throughout our whole tenancy, and helped us with external reference requests with a very fast turnaround. Would recommend for those in the Brixton/Stockwell area.

22nd Aug 2023 (3 years ago)If I could give 0 star, I would.
Absolutely unprofessional, disrespectful, cheap & discriminative service that this agency provides.
Home owners pay them to have a part of full service. The tenants will have to deal with their own reference checks etc. as the agency is washing their hands when it comes to doing anything that they are getting paid for.
After being passed onto a referencing agency who couldn't do their job properly, (which I now believe happened in collaboration with the agent of DPR as they didn't want to give us the flat ) we've been asked to get in touch with a 3rd party agency to sort out the problem. Why would you use two 3rd parties to do your reference checks? Later on the agent made is seem like it was all our fault (that their agency couldn't reference us properly) and they ahed contacted the landlord and suggested him not to go ahead with us.
In all honesty, you guys better make a call to Trading Standards as well - I reported them already.The more of us the better.
20th Feb 2025 (1 year ago)That nice
15th Jul 2025 (1 year ago)Well what can I say, Warren's approach to helping you sell a house is not the run of the mill approach.
He knows his subject, he knows his clients and even the bumpiest road becomes a smooth newly laid cycle path with his guidance.
He did an excellent job and was always on hand when you needed him night or day. No regrets. Warren all the way.

7th Jan 2022 (4 years ago)We have just started renting through Rhubarb and have had a great first experience. A few minor admin errors but everyone has been very responsive, kind and welcoming. Tom has been great with working around our plans and being flexible!
22nd Oct 2026 (18 days ago)They’ve really made things easy for me struggled with a couple things but they helped me
13th Oct 2026 (27 days ago)Simon really knows his stuff! I’m so glad I had the opportunity to chat with him and explore the best ways to market my property for rent. He was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful, and I’m really grateful for his advice and insight. Highly recommend!
23rd Oct 2026 (17 days ago)Story of Home made the whole process incredibly simple. Alex had the most attentive 1 on 1 care and made selling our home feel very personal, cared for and non transactional. Couldn’t recommend more!
25th Aug 2026 (11 weeks ago)Utterly unacceptable use of violence and intimidation against tenants, all on video too. Appalling, avoid at all costs
15th Jul 2025 (1 year ago)Overpromised, Underperformed and Untrustworthy – My Costly Mistake with HSD
I initially listed my property with PurpleBricks in March 2025 for £535,000. After limited viewings over a three-month period, I began exploring other options and submitted an enquiry to WeBuyAnyHouse. They quickly came back with an offer of £460,000—roughly 14% below asking—claiming it would allow for a quick sale. I immediately declined, as I was not in a rush and didn’t want to take such a significant loss.
Shortly after, my details were apparently passed on to House Sales Direct (HSD), seemingly a sister company, without my explicit consent. HSD came across as professional and engaging at first. They promised a 98% success rate in selling properties within 28 days, citing a strong network of pre-approved buyers and investors who could complete within 6–8 weeks. They suggested a sale price spread of £510k–£535k, assuring me they would work to get me the best price possible. It sounded promising.
Based on these assurances, I decided to proceed with HSD. I withdrew my PurpleBricks listing—costing me £300—with the understanding that HSD’s investor network would accelerate the sale. But things quickly began to unravel.
Despite supposedly having investors lined up, HSD said they needed to relist my property on Rightmove first. When I questioned why investors couldn’t simply view the home, the response was vague. It took nearly two weeks for them to relist, and the new asking price was £525,000. A full week passed without any communication.
Then came a call recommending the price be dropped to £499,000. I was told this was “just a marketing tactic,” and that they still aimed to get me a sale within the original £510k–£535k range. But I struggled to understand how listing a property nearly £40,000 lower would achieve that. I asked again about the investors. They finally admitted the only offer received was the same £460k I'd declined weeks earlier through WeBuyAnyHouse.
This was when the red flags really began to show. Why wasn’t I told this upfront? Why present an optimistic price range if their investor offer was fixed at £460k from the beginning? Why was I encouraged to pull the property from PurpleBricks if they intended to rely on the open market anyway? I could have just reduced the price there and avoided unnecessary costs and delays.
Doing more research online, I found stories from others with eerily similar experiences. It appeared HSD’s real model was to attract sellers with high expectations and then drop the price, relying on open-market tactics to force a quick sale. Despite claiming not to charge commission, they would never clearly explain how they made their money. It seems they may be negotiating higher prices with buyers while offering sellers less—profiting off the gap. No transparency, no trust.
Meanwhile, they knew I was paying a high mortgage on an empty property. It became clear they were hoping I’d become desperate enough to accept the same low £460k offer I had already rejected twice.
In the four weeks my property was listed with them, only four viewings were arranged. Two were no-shows. Of the remaining two, one viewer stayed for just five minutes—asked no questions and didn’t even view all the rooms. It felt performative, not serious. As expected, neither viewer submitted an offer, despite supposedly being “pre-qualified and keen.”
Eventually, I told HSD I wanted to withdraw the property. That’s when I was informed—shockingly—that I had unknowingly signed up for a 52-week contract, and I’d need to pay £1,500 to exit, or £999 if paid within 7 days.
I wrote to them, acknowledged that they had done some work, and offered a reasonable £699 exit fee, explaining I needed to rent the home out due to financial strain. They refused and insisted on full payment. I paid the £999 immediately—but it still took a full week and several chasers before they finally removed the property from Rightmove.
By the end of the ordeal, it was clear I was no longer a priority for them.
In summary:
Do I regret choosing HSD? Absolutely.
Would I recommend them to someone looking for a fair, transparent, and professional house sale experience? No.
If your only goal is to sell quickly and you don’t care about value, they might work for you. But if you want to sell your home at a decent price with a partner you can trust, I strongly advise staying away from HSD.
