Best local estate agency

I have been a client Landlord with PhilAlexander for 16 years and got to know the co-founders, Phil and Alex quite well. What you get from them is professionalism, efficiency and the personal touch. Recently, PhilAlexander managed the sale of a property for me and Rob, the Manager was a perfect embodiment of the core values that the agency stands for. So, I am very grateful to everyone at PhilAlexander for all the services they rendered to me for so many years.

Professional

I put my flat on the market with Philip Alexander earlier this year. My two points of contact, Rob and Elliott, were very professional at all stages, always responding to queries in a timely and reassuring fashion. It was great dealing with Philip Alexander through what is invariably a stressful process, and I would highly recommend them. Five stars and no complaints.

These guys really know what they're doing

Instinctively, I have never been a fan of Estate Agents until I met Rob Kraushar at Philip Alexander.

At the point where I was desperately needing to rent out my house, I was delighted by the enthusiasm and care that Rob showed the minute he walked into my little house, as well as by the pace at which he worked - firstly getting their photographer to take wonderful pictures, and then at lightening speed, to present my house for rent on their website. Within hours seemingly, the perfect tenant (previously unheard of in all my 13 years of renting), was found.

Six months later when it came to selling my house, PA were the obvious choice of support. It was a long process to sell it, with an arduous amount of to-ing and fro-ing between the buyers, solicitors and me, but with Rob and Elliott's consistent help, diplomacy and determination (seemingly on hand pretty much at all times, whenever I had a burning question or needed to moan), we all arrived at the desired outcome.

I would very much like to thank Rob and Elliott and their colleagues for their transparency, professionalism, and skilful counselling throughout.

For all of those other Estate Agent sceptics out there... you may be pleasantly surprised with these folk; they've really got your back.

Top service from Elliott at Philip Alexander

We recently sold and bought our properties through Philip Alexander and as stressful as the process was we could not have got through it without the wonderful Elliott! His calm nature and professional manner was helpful and most welcomed during some extremely difficult times. Elliott was very quick to respond to our queries and went above and beyond the call of duty on many occasions which my husband and I are very grateful for. We’ve gone with larger estate agents before and the service left a lot to be desired. The team at Philip Alexander are knowledgable, efficient and with their guidance and personal touch you can’t help but feel well looked after! Elliott, Rob, Miles and Paris are an absolute credit to the team and we hope to use their service again in the future!

Excellent service

My flat has just completed and I can’t praise this estate agents enough.
The agents were thorough, easy to deal with and had great local knowledge. A good offer came through very quickly from buyers who were on the agents books looking for a property.
The sale process was incredibly efficiently managed by Elliott who appeared to work tirelessly to ensure the sale went through quickly. He went the extra mile for both me and the buyers.
Don’t waste your time with national companies or online firms (I’ve tried both types unsuccessfully). Use this firm for insider local knowledge and excellence service.

Excellent Local Agency in N8

We were very satisfied with Philip Alexander selling our property within a very short time, they have secured a very competitive price with a much smaller commission than other agencies. Elliott has been an outstanding agent, very responsive, helpful and professional; he has supported both buyers and sellers side in the whole process. I would definitely use them again if I was in that situation.

fast, efficient, proffesional

I have excellent experience with PhilipAlexander, very fast, professional, reply to all requests almost immediately. I both rented with them and purchased a property. The property purchase was smooth on their side, any questions I had with the seller they checked with them on the same day. Definitely will use their services in the future.

Our sincerely grateful!

My wife and I are the landlords of a flat, and we asked Philip Alexander to be our letting agency. We had a wonderful experience about the high quality of their service, including finding the tenants, organizing the documents and reacting of our questions. All staffs like Joshua Oyibo, Megan Stephenson, Conor Mcilgrew and Alex Neil himself are friendly, nice and work hard. We feel safe and be grateful to have them as an agent. Lian Yang & Youhong Liu

I've recently bought a property…

I've recently bought a property through Philip Alexander Estate agents. I first viewed property with their employee Joshua Oyibo and continued with him through to completion. Joshua has a way of being very professional and with a natural honest approach (not that common always with estate agents :-) ). He was on the case all the way through and followed up solicitors and vender when things were going slow. Very capable young man I'm sure he will go far. I have no hesitaion in recommending him and his firm Philip Alexander. Thanks again Josh!

Great local estate agent

We are currently renting through Philip Alexander and we are very happy with their service! Everyone we have spoken to so far have been super friendly and helpful. The letting agent Josh went above and beyond to help us find a perfect place in a desired area. Conor, who is our property manager, is absolutely great too! He helps us out with all the issues we come across and makes sure they get addressed quickly. They’re by far the best estate agent we have dealt with in Crouch End/Hornsey. Would definitely recommend!

Hello Alex, thanks for leaving a review.

Deductions from deposits are compiled by comparing the check in inventory with the check out inventory. We use an independent third party who assess a property once it is vacant and we adhere to My Deposits deduction criteria to calculate deductions.

The team at Philip Alexander were…reliable and trusted

The team at Philip Alexander were fantastic. Their, professionalism, straight-talking approach and dedication were a critical part in securing the sale of my property.

I was in a chain which at times was very frustrating, however I could rely on the team at Philip Alexander to seek out regular updates and move things forwards.

Phillip Alexander

I found that both Rob and Alex were extremely helpful and professional. They were incredibly responsive in order to facilitate the process as quickly and as easily as possible. They were very understanding in regards to all my requests / enquiries and showed a lot of patience when necessary. Would definitely recommend, and would be happy to work with them again in the future.
