GOOD Based on 112 reviews Adetola Igoh2025-01-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sharpes Estates, is an Estate and a half and more. Never in all my years of renting have I received such care and attention and favours through an Estate agency. My usual experience is once you have moved in to the property that is it. You won't see the agents for dust, even when you have a query. I am very pleased with Sharpes Estate, this would be my 2nd year renting through them and it sure has been a pleasure, I would recommend them anytime any day. The staff and management are always on board to help with any queries or repairs; the agency keeps you informed every step of the way re any repairs that you have raised. The standard of their subcontractors, are next to none; always on time and very flexible, the contracrors liaise with you to arrange the best possible day & time, to carry out any repairs you have brought to the Estate Agents attention. Sharpes Estates are remarkably an amazing set of people and it flows from the top down, am so happy to rent through them, over and over again. Keep up the fab work Sharpes Estates... 👏👏👏👏👏👍 Ben Utting2025-01-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

The response is too fast and they are so polite Yashodhara Bose2024-12-03Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Sharpes Estates were very helpful in finding a place for me to live in London. The portal that they use to complete all the pre-letting procedures is very easy to follow. Adele was my property manager and was very prompt in responding to all my queries. They also accommodated a virtual viewing for me. It gave me immense peace of mind to know that I secured a place to live in even before moving to the big city. Thank you to Sharpes Estates, I highly recommend them for anyone hoping to secure a property in a hassle-free manner.

I have been renting with them for not 3/4 years and after living 10 years in the UK I can say they are the best agency I have rented with. They are extremely prepared and ready to act. The team is great! Kate Rivers2024-11-28Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Was looking for somewhere with very short notice and Adele and the Sharpes Estates Team were great to deal with. Everything was quick, smooth, and very well explained. If you are renting, I would recommend this team. Thank you for all your help! Antonis Tsekrezi2024-11-19Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

It's difficult for us because we can't do viewings but they did everything for us efficiently even if all our interactions are just virtual. In addition, Adele helped me find a home/landlord that's ok with cats and she gave all help to find someone who will accept us all together. I couldn't thank her enough and the whole team for going extra mile.
