Sabrina Percy helped me in my search for the perfect London pied-à-terre. She is the most professional and reactive real estate agent I have worked with. She made sure to understand my needs, and submitted properties for my review, before taking me to visit the best available. Working with her was effortless, efficient and a pleasure.

An overall very positive and pleasant experience, especially with Edward (Bernsted) who has been amazing in helping us with our search for the ideal property. Edward has been very responsive and pro-active, always going the extra mile to understand our needs and requirements, without being pushy or putting the pressure (unlike his manager who tried to close a deal on a property too soon, and put pressure on us in a slightly forceful way). He has been extremely professional and pleasant to deal with - and... I will miss his great sense of humour!

Sabrina at Winkworth went above and beyond to help find a place that would be suitable for all 3 of us. She went out of her way to send a multitude of properties to assess what were definite no's and what were good options. This really helped in not wasting time viewings properties we would automatically say no to. We initially went in looking for a 3 bedroom property which dropped to a 2. So, we weren't the easiest to cater to! Even when on leave, she made sure to provide us with contact details of her colleague who seemed well informed about our requirements. She was very professional and didn't bombard me with calls like other agents. I made a point of asking to be contacted by email due to being so busy at work and she respected this wholly. Will definitely seek for her help should I need to move again. Many thanks!!

Edward Bensted is simply the best agent I have ever come across. He is dynamic, hard working, he gets what you want, doesn't waste your time and truly cares about making you happy! My experience has been exceptional. Even though we have been difficult and have even changed our search location or even presented him with new radical ideas re what we were looking for (and yes we are very demanding), Edward always accommodated us. He even made sure that the agents at the other offices that he put us in touch with were on the ball with us and always followed up after our visits if he couldn't accompany us (not only working hours but outside office hours too). My husband and I highly recommend Edward Bensted, as you would be lucky to have his service.

Quite simply THE most professional and proactive agent I came across whilst searching for a flat. Edward took time to understood what I was looking for which saved me a lot of time and frustration. He also knows a lot about the area and is well informed on the properties too. I have already recommended him to friends and business colleagues and will continue to do so.

I recently used Winkworth's Kensington Church Street Branch to sell a house in Abbotsbury Road. Winkworth's were excellent from start to finish. I had first met Josh Grinling when he had valued the property for probate purposes. He did this free of charge. We were thus already well disposed towards Winkworth. However their valuation for sale and sale plan was extremely professional and convincing and they were awarded the business. The pre-sale process was painless and we had the house ready for viewing along with sales details within a week. In another week, following multiple viewings, we had an offer and after a further week a sale. Throughout this period both Josh and Caroline were availabe to discuss progress, price etc. Once the sale had been agreed Josh remained attentive helping the purchaser when and where necessary. I would highly recommend the services of this estate agency. (AG)

Really attentive service with regular updates and prompt feedback. Winkworth achieved a top rental for my flat. Freddi's calm, professionalism mixed in with a refreshing dose of transparency were the initial reasons why I instructed winkworth to handle the rental of my flat. My calls and emails were always responded to promptly and advice given to me regarding timelines was very much appreciated and infinitely useful. Help and advice regarding short term rentals was also hugely appreciated. Thank you so much Freddi and also the rest of your lovely team!!
