Drove an hour for a viewing. Confirmation text message received the night before. But nobody at the property to let us in and no call or explanation from the agent and unresponsive on the phone. I’ll stick to other agents I think.

We’ve scheduled a viewing and then discovered that the agent didn’t turn up, we ended up waiting in the rain just outside the property. We then called the agency and needed to explain the situation, apparently the person who’s scheduled …

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback Michael. We are extremely sorry that we were late to your viewing. Unfortunately our colleague was held up at a previous appointment, and then the keys were unfortunately not left for us. … More

Awful management company. Takes months for them to sort anything. Caused me so much stress. Even nearly a year on the issues are not resolved. It doesn't matter how many times you call or email, they have all the excuses in the world.

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: We are very disappointed to read your review Anna. Having searched our tenant and client database we can see no record of your name or contact details. Please contact us at your earliest convenience as we would love to be able to follow up with you and assist in any way we can.

Avoid. At the end of Tenancy they tried to claim our entire deposit. Luckily the TDS service saw through their greed and awarded us close to the full amount back.

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: Hi Adam, we completely understand how time-consuming and frustrating deposit arbitration by the TDS can be and as your agent, we always aim to mediate an amicable resolution between landlords and tenants to avoid these lengthy deposit … More

My very honest review was initially posted on the wrong branch's website and I have reposted the same review on the Welwyn Garden City branch who host the asset management team. KO

Disappointed with a property I bought from Ashtons St Albans. I was the easiest and quickest buyer they can have, but upon moving in, their seller left the property in a disgusting state. I asked for their help about loads of rubbish in the …

Estate agents that encourage deceit and gazumping.... would not recommend. Very disrespectful

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: Hi Jonathon, We are, of course, very disappointed to see your feedback above. I have spoken with the team looking after this sale who have confirmed that … More

An absolute nightmare company. They let the house next door, and although the tenants have recently moved out, we still have a damaged fence where their child climbed over, and over grown hedges that need sorting. I certainly wouldn't recommend them.

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: Hi Yvette, I’m sorry to hear your feedback regarding this property. However, I have spoken to our Lettings team who have reassured me that both the broken fence and garden at this property are currently being addressed as a priority. I … More

False information given by Louise Walker in regard to delays with local searches which has caused a huge panic throughout the chain I'm involved with. Thank goodness I didn't instruct Ashtons. What a poor show. Please fact check in future and please stop creating unnecessary panic in an already stressful climate.

Reply from Ashtons St Albans: Thank you for your comments. Having investigated this further, Louise had been informed by a local reputable solicitor that all local authority searches would be delayed until 14th July. With this in mind, Louise updated her clients of the same in order to manage expectations and make a suggestion that they and/or their own solicitor contact the council themselves for further clarity. Louise also checked in with St Albans District Council herself and established that this may have been miss-communicated to the solicitor and upon finding this out, immediately made all parties aware. We apologise if this caused any unnecessary stress but Louise was working in the best interests of all to mitigate what could have been hugely problematic, with the end of the Stamp Duty Holiday looming. We trust this provides clarity on the matter but Louise has offered that she would be very happy to speak to you or any other parties directly on this and can be contacted on 01582 463960.
