Very poor experience renting through Cluttons.

We moved into the property with a damp bedroom wall caused by a leak from the kitchen above. We had been told it would be dried and repaired before we moved in, but it wasn’t. The wall was still wet and quickly developed black mould.

From week one we emailed regularly asking for the issue to be fixed, but nothing was properly resolved during the entire year-long tenancy. We were often told it was a council issue, but the property should never have been rented out in that condition.

Living with damp and mould made the room uncomfortable and at times unlivable, and I was ill multiple times during the tenancy.

The house was also left in a poor state when we moved in (rubbish in the garden, worn carpets, and areas that had clearly not been cleaned). Despite hiring a professional cleaner at the end of the tenancy, Cluttons still attempted to charge additional costs.

Compensation was eventually paid, but only after I threatened legal action. Overall, a very disappointing experience and poor property management.

I found my recent experience of dealing with Cluttons a delight. Jemelia Furtado was polite, efficient and thoroughly professional throughout. She was always on time and I never felt hurried into any decision. She answered all my questions promptly and accurately. Even though in the end I didn't rent from Cluttons I would have no hesitation in using the agency again or recommending them to friends.

Amelie is a star- she’s been professional, friendly and energetic when she was helping with my search process and her approach of really understanding and resonating with the needs from clients is what makes her stand out. She’s very attentive while following up as well- I can definitely see her growing into a great sales/ account management superstar very soon!

The lovely Amelie was the property agent for my husband and I. We dealt with many agencies and Amelie was by far our favourite to deal with, she as helpful and patient and kind and we rented a terrific flat through her. She has been so good guiding us through the referencing process and next steps. I would highly recommend working with Amelie. Professional and a pleasure to deal with. Thanks Amelie!

Justice and Jemelia were absolutely fantastic throughout our renting process. They were both professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful from start to finish. They took the time to explain everything clearly, kept us updated at each stage, and made what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and straightforward.
We really appreciated their support and would highly recommend them. Thank you both for your help!

My partner and I were recently shown a property by Jemelia. She was great throughout and was able to answer all of our questions perfectly and with great professionalism. We would recommend Cluttons and Jemelia herself if you need to find a property in London.

We’re currently in the process of moving into a new flat and could not be happier with the service we have received from Cluttons! Especially how quick and efficient everything was with the whole process. Amelie has been amazing with all our queries. She has been very helpful, professional, and quick with providing assistance when we needed to remove certain furnishings. Very happy with this agency as a whole and would definitely recommend! 😊

I just bought a flat from Cluttons and had a very positive experience. Hamish Temple and James Teulon were the agents I worked with the most, and they were patient and friendly. The communication was very good throughout the transaction. Hamish was very helpful when I needed access pre-completion for measuring up and bringing some contractors round. He made time after work to let me in and helped answer a lot of questions.
I would like to thank the Cluttons team for their professionalism and support in helping us find a new home. A special thanks to Jemelia – she was incredibly responsive, kind, and supportive, guiding us through a very difficult time and making sure we found the best possible apartment for our needs. Her dedication and care truly made a difference.

Cluttons is by far the best real estate agency we have worked with – reliable, attentive, and highly professional. We couldn’t be happier with the service and strongly recommend them to anyone searching for a new home.

Jemelia, from the Islington office, has been incremental in securing a property our clients loved. Within 48 hours, we succeeded in visiting the property, securing access and have our offer agreed. She worked beyond office hours, with a smile and patience to ensure our clients would be happy! Thank you for making it happen and well done!

I’ve had a great experience with Jemelia at Cluttons Islington branch. She has been incredibly helpful and responsive throughout my property search. From arranging viewings promptly to providing clear and honest information about the properties, her support has made the process much less stressful. She was friendly and professional during the viewing, answering all my questions and offering thoughtful advice. I truly appreciate her patience and effort in helping me find a suitable place to rent. Highly recommended!

Had a fantastic experience with Cluttons while searching for a rental property. Joe was brilliant - he showed me around the flat professionally and helped get my offer accepted. Special thanks to Justice who handled the remaining steps of the letting process with such care and attention. Her responses were always swift and incredibly kind, which made what can be a stressful process feel much more manageable. Would definitely recommend Cluttons and this team to anyone looking for a rental property. Professional, responsive, and genuinely helpful throughout.

Amelie was fantastic, making the process super easy and straight forward. We were out of London when we found our apartment, but the process of virtually viewing it and then proceeding through negotiations to signing was totally stress-free. Probably my best experience with an estate agent. Highly recommend.
