Fantastic service - highly recommended.

Excellent all round service with great communication every step of the way (thanks Jerome). KP valued our property favourably & found a cash buyer so the sale was fast, efficient and pain free. Highly recommended.

Mr Thompson, thank you for choosing us as your sole agent over the other agents you were considering. It was a pleasure meeting your sale requirements and finding you a cash purchaser to complete the sale swiftly. All the best for the future, please contact us if you need any further assistance.

Just STAY AWAY if you don't want to live in misery, while being ROBBED!

This is the most ridiculous "service" we have ever received! They give everything to take your money and move you into the property. After the collection of the deposit, rent and everything, they only contact you to raise your rent. If you have any problems with the property - water from the top floor and peeling off bathroom ceiling, all they do is to revert you to their app, to report the problem. Then, you receive a message that the Landlord has been advised and that's all... If you dare to make any improvements on the property, it is on your bill, and ASAP they send you a message or call that the rent must be raised. When you finally lose patience and move out, you realise that your deposit is in a scheme, that only if they want and are favourable enough, you may receive back. We moved out a month ago, there is NO dispute against us or any complaints. Chasing them weekly, asking "what is going on with our deposit?" but only mocking laughter on the phone from their Property Manager-Jacky Cartmell, that "will tell me later, to wait" Well, we are waiting a month already... Just raised a dispute and informed the Property Ombudsman and the Agency regulator.
Just STAY AWAY if you don't want to live in misery and destruction, while being ROBBED!

Dear Radostina,

I am sorry to read your review especially after we had such a nice relationship during your 2 year occupation.
As an agent, we always try to get deposits returned as swiftly as possible but in some circumstances, delays are put in our way that can’t be helped and we had apologised for this.
The deposit has now been settled and returned to you in full.
We do not agree with all of your comments but as a tenant, you have a right to comment how you feel fit and we take all criticism on board as we feel this helps us grow stronger.
I would like to also comment on your statement about ‘mocking laughter’. After working with Kurtis for over 11 years, I have always had a friendly approach and if this offended you, then of course, I apologise.
As I had emailed you, we were happy to discuss your upset and we still are should you wish.
We would like to wish you good luck in your new home.
Regards,
Jackie

No communication whatsoever

No communication whatsoever. Have asked multiple times about viewing a property i am very interested in and been told no less than several times that I would be called back on a specific day. Not once has this happened. I raised this the last time I called and he said that he would ring me back himself and didn't.

If this is their level of customer service when they presumably want my money, what are they going to be like once they have it?0

Do not recommend

I dealt with the Ilford branch which is closed down. After he took our £350 deposit, you could not reach him. The landlord himself pulled out of the offer because the house was not ready. I was chasing him for my money for 7 days everyday.

Update: we have gotten our money back after this review was posted but nothing before that. That was 2 weeks of waiting. They need to work on their communication towards renters. I still do not recommend it.

Hi there, following on from our conversation with you last week we explained that our Ilford branch isn't closed and we invited you down to the office to meet us in person which wasn't taken up.

We are sorry that you feel still this way and wish you all the best for the future.

Thank you.

EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!

EXTREMELY POOR SERVICE!!!!!!!!!!!!

We have recently moved from a Kurtis property which was, at first, in a disgraceful, nasty position. When we moved out the lady taking the keys and photos said we would get our deposit after she writes a review about how we have kept the house. She even wrote a review about many false claims which had not been there or had been there but from before. They have the proof of what state the house was in when we moved in and how it was when we moved out. They are not giving a deposit which is meant to be given to us. They even have very rude agents.

i am from 29 dronfield gardens. More reviews are coming.

Hi,
We are very sorry that you have placed such a review and would like to clarify.
All tenancies have a full inventory check-in report and check-out report undertaken to show a true reflection of the property condition.
When you gave notice, you were informed of the process and that the property was to be returned professionally clean with minimal damage excluding fair wear and tear.
Throughout your tenancy the property had several works completed including plastering and painting. However, upon departure, it was clear that drawings and scribbles on walls are not wear and tear.
As you were unhappy with a request for any deductions which we tried to negotiate with you on and could not settle any conclusion, this was sent to the tenancy deposit scheme and a dispute raised.
You are aware that the TDS settled this matter in the landlords favour and all of your deposit was awarded to the landlord due to the condition the property was returned.
I hope this clarifies your comments.
Regards.

We are sorry that you feel that your rental experience was not as you would have liked. However, we would like to clarify that we catered for every issue you raised and allowed you to vacate the property early as you were unhappy.
Kind regards.

I’ve never dealt with Kurtis property…

I’ve never dealt with Kurtis property but if it’s anything like how staff drive in a sign written van I’d avoid. Weaving in and out of lanes and tailgating on the A12. Disgusting!

Hi Gavin,
Sincere apologies for what happened.
Can you please kindly provide your contact details through email on sam@kurtiswoodford.co.uk so we can discuss with you further.
Thank you.

Good Afternoon Gavin,
We didn't hear back from you after our reply above on the 9th April 2021 to your review.
I just wanted to apologise again on behalf of the driver of the van who is not an employee of Kurtis Property and an independent contractor.
I would still very much like to discuss this incident with you in full detail and welcome you to contact me by email on sam@kurtiswoodford.co.uk.
Kurtis Property have been in business for over 30 years and this incident is by no means a reflection of our company and the services we offer.
We have many wonderful reviews online as you can see.
Thank you.
Samantha

Fully managed tenancy

Kurtis Ilford have managed my let property for several years now. They're extremely knowledgeable, efficient, professional and friendly. Special thanks to Jackie, whose calm and measured approach to dealing with problems has been invaluable throughout.

Very disappointed property management

I have l have very bad expériences with Kurtis management. They were in charge of my house for 9 years and sending me only nice pics about some areas of the house when I was abroad, when returning back home, I gave notice more than 5 months well in advance for them to make aware the tenant and to give them time to find a new property but on my big surprise and in order to avoid returning the retention they were holding for the management for 6 months mths they kept finding excuses for 7 months until the retention time were over. Once they were sure they have to return the retention suddenly it was possible for the tenant to move out hmmmm !!! Strange enough. Unfortunately the worse was coming, the house was completely destroyed by the tenant: kitchen draws broken? Wardrobe door mirror kraken, wall smashed, garden fence and shed door broken dirty everywhere etc. 2 pages of items damages , Griffith on wall, doors dirty etc. When the time came to do the check out report you cannot believe they did a report so in favour of the tenant I couldn’t believe. I then found an independent surveyor who did a very professional report which I sent to Kurtis but instead of sending to the tenant they responded themselves saying 99% of the claim was tear and wear. How on earth broken cabinet, door, mirror, shed, tiles broken, etc can be considered as tear or wear ? Finally I found out that the agent had a good relationship with the tenant hence they didn’t want to upset him hence they didn’t want side with me as a landloard who trusted them for 9 years and paying them every single month. It was their duty to protect my interest instead of siding with a tenant only for potential future business. I m so angry and disappointed with Kurtis not being professional I will never recommend Kurtis in my life, trust me if you want to regret one day don’t hesitate to handover your property management to Kurtis. I don’t use to send review but I feel that as a human being I don’t want someone else to get in the same situation but is your decision if you do not want to believe me. Even when claiming to the TDS they refused to help while it was part of their duty step in and to help with the dispute but instead they were rather helping the tenant. I m so frustrated that I do no longer want to rent again the property I decided to decorate in order to put it on the market for sale.

Mr & Mrs Diop.
We are very disappointed to read your comments especially as we had successfully worked with you for over 9 years with no complaints.
During this period, 2 – 3 times a year a full property inspection was completed which included reports and photos throughout your property including any issues or improvements for your perusal. We do not withhold any details of the condition of any property.
Due to a change in your own circumstances, you gave us instructions to issue notice to the tenants as your work was bringing you back to the UK and you needed to move back in to the property. We did as you instructed.
However this was in the middle of a pandemic and unfortunately, your tenants were vulnerable with their youngest child being under the local hospital and therefore, for them to move was restricted under Covid-19 which we hope you appreciated, could not be helped.
We kept you up to date at all times on the progress of their move. You also informed us that you were also delayed from returning to the UK also due to Covid restrictions and therefore understood there circumstances.
We worked with you, advised and guided you in relation to the vacation of the tenants and the whole process. We arranged a full independent inventory check-out and upon inspection of your own inventory which you provided us at the beginning of the tenancy along with the independent check-out, we recommended on deductions that were considered fair wear and tear (after 9 years) and what could be considered acceptable.
We took your instruction but unfortunately, after weeks of continuous negotiations, you declined the tenants offer and our guidance and opted to go through the tenancy disputes service.
We offered our assistance in this matter but again, you declined.
The deposit was then raised with the dispute service and as you are aware, their decision is final.
After approx. 8 weeks, the adjudicator’s decision was to only offer you what the tenant had already offered and did not accept your request. To confirm, there final findings were:
Taking into account the length of the tenancy and in the absence of a comprehensive check in
report detailing the condition (and functioning where appropriate) of the property and its contents at the start of the tenancy or a clear admission from the tenant, I am not persuaded sufficient evidence has been supplied to show the remaining items/areas claimed for were damaged beyond the scope of fair wear and tear. I therefore make no further award to the landlord.
It is a shame that you are not happy to accept their findings and that this has caused you to give us such a poor rating which we feel is totally unwarranted.
