“We had a fantastic experience renting through Kings Estate Agency. The whole process was smooth, well organised, and handled very professionally from start to finish. A special thank you to Mike, Fiona and Matt, who were incredibly kind, understanding, and always willing to help. Their friendly and supportive approach really made a difference. I previously rented through W&P and found out they’re an other extreme. It’s great to deal with an agency that genuinely cares about its tenants, are fair and treats people with respect. We are very grateful for their help and would highly recommend Kings Estate Agency to anyone looking to rent or buy.”

Kind words
“Sold our apartment within a week of going on the market. Seamless communication, and a real pleasure to deal with throughout.”
“Thank you to the Kings team for all your help with my recent sale and purchase. The service I received throughout was excellent, friendly and professional from first contact to completion. Kings involvement played a large part in the outcome of my move, to which I am very grateful. I could not conclude this review without a massive thank you to Lauren who was consistently amazing. A very good selling and purchase experience and I would have no hesitation recommended Kings and their services to others.”
“I cannot recommend Mike and his team at Kings highly enough! From start to finish, their professionalism, responsiveness, and dedication were outstanding. They found excellent tenants and handled the entire process smoothly, making my experience stress-free. Communication was clear and timely, and their knowledge of the market was second to none. If you want a reliable and efficient agent who genuinely cares about both landlords and tenants, this is the one to choose! Thank you.”
“We listed our house in July with Kings and within 2 weeks we had accepted an offer. Tom, Gemma and Lauren have all been absolutely amazing throughout the whole sale and even after completion, they are still helping us with tying up the last few loose ends eg post forwarding! We couldn’t be happier with the service they have provided - thank you so much to all at Kings Estates.”
“Just had our home valued and I can truly say Kings Estate Agents are a breath of fresh air. Zero pressure and had a wonderful meeting with Gemma. We went through all options and there wasn’t any rush either, so I could comfortably relax and go through everything in great detail. I can highly recommend this family run company. Thank you.”
“Absolute 10/10 experience. As first-time buyers we were a little lost — Lauren and the team guided us through every step.”
