Knightons

I have used Knightons (John Whitehead) for both renting a flat and buying a flat. They were great to deal with, always polite, helpful and speedy. I would definitely recommend.

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.

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.

Hi, I have been a tenant with knightons for a few years now and can honestly say they are a really good letting agency. The staff are very polite and and easy to talk to. If I need anything done in my home they sort it straight away. Thank you knightons.

This the third time that we have rented through Knightons. We have always found Nick and his team supportive and very helpful in advising us. Many thanks.

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

We've just completed on our new house, and I can't thank Knightons, and Nick in particular highly enough. We managed to get everything done within the stamp duty window, Nick has been a great help. I would certainly recommend Knightons for other people looking to purchase a new home.

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.

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!

I recently sold a property through Knightons and can honestly say the whole process was made very easy. I was kept informed along the way with everything related to the sale of the property. John Whitehead was very professional and extremely efficient. Thank you to all at Knightons, will definitely recommend your estate agents to family and friends.

I am a landlord and have dealt with Knightons estate agents in Buckhurst Hill for my rentals. Through Knightons I receive excellent service and there system of notifying me of all finances is very clear, efficient and easy to understand. Nothing is too much trouble and their service is excellent at all times. Strongly recommended

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
