Review Time
(2-April-2026 update)
I am very disappointed with the way Barnard Marcus has handled my deposit return. Despite repeatedly following up, they continue to respond with vague messages like “I am still currently liaising with your former landlord in regards to what they may potentially be looking to claim for to deduct from your deposit.” This has been going on for far too long, and it feels completely unprofessional.
The checkout inventory report clearly stated there were no damages and I have hired professional end of tenancy cleaning, so there is no reason for the landlord to spend days “looking for” deductions. The agency should be enforcing a clear deadline for the landlord, not helping them delay payment. I expected transparent and timely communication, but instead, I have experienced avoidable delays and poor accountability. Very disappointing service.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To future tenants, I wish you good luck and all the best coz you really needed it.
People here just don't give a sh*t and don't care about delivering what they have promised.
1. I was only given the tenancy agreement 3 days before the tenancy start date, as I have mentioned multiple times that I need time to read the agreement and make payment and plan ahead for my moving, they only serve the landlord as the landlord is given a template and rights to modify any leasing terms 2 weeks ago, but I only got 3 days. And they insist that I need to start paying bills on the tenancy start day and not willing to postpone it even it is their fault to not send me the agreement earlier. Without any confirmation how am I suppose to make plans in moving?
2. They will not share the landlord's contact and saying I can contact them whenever I need help. However, whenever I needed them to ask landlord for confirmation, eg if it is ok to replace the traditional meter with smart meter, they will never help you and no reply. I tried to call and email, no response. Also I tried to ask them to confirm with landlord if water bill is also included, as the rent only stated hot water included. I tried to call Thames Water and got the reply is I cannot set up an account with them as the whole building was under 1 business account. I addressed this issue to Barnard Marcus Covent Garden and would would like to seek for a confirmation that I do not need to pay for water. What I got was, if you contacted Thames Water then I should take their advice. Come on! I need confirmation from you! not from Thames Water!
There are many more little things that shows how irresponsible they are to Tenants, I hope this review can help anyone who is considering to rent from them.
**When it comes to fixture maintenance, Hollie from the property maintenance team however did a great job, she replied my emails and follow up on the issues. I really appreciated her prompt response.
PS. I will keep updating my frustrated experiences that I encounter with them.

Just not nice to deal with, everything’s hidden, can’t get a straight answer to what commissions are, got told to look on website which makes it even harder to find, why do WH Brown use these crooks, like dealing in the 70s, and no policing
Don`t even pass trough by this company. awful as they can`t communicate. they keep offering you mortgatge adviser but they can`t sell a property. anytime i book viewing with barnard marcus i view the property you can1t keep in touch with one person. they even dont talke your offer properly, your position also missing from the form. you keep calling them but there is no clear answers.. they are there to just spend some time and get their sallary thats it..
The office opposite KFC in Thornton Hearth, Mortgage Advisor S B was very unprofessional, rude, arrogant and impolite. She was very argumentative about nonsense things like office direction etc.. Will not recommend this Mortgage Advisor if your buying a house. Such a waste of time!
I would like to thank the team at Barnard Marcus Tottenham for all their help in selling my home. From meeting Cameron at the initial viewing I was always treated with the utmost professionalism and always felt he had my interests at heart. He was always there with good advice and encouragement in what is a daunting process. A big thank you too to Ogo, who was always so positive, patient and friendly when we spoke and to Andreas for showing my flat to prospective sellers with such good humour. They were all on the case, keeping me informed and getting back to me promptly when I needed to be in touch.A very professional, friendly team I can recommend highly.
I had a fantastic experience working with Alan throughout the purchase of my flat. After almost a full year of searching for a property, dealing with many different agencies and unfortunately going through several unsuccessful situations, it was such a relief to finally work with someone as supportive and collaborative as Alan.From the very beginning he was incredibly professional, responsive and genuinely helpful. Buying a property can be a stressful and complex process, but Alan was always available to guide me, provide updates and help move things forward whenever needed. His communication and dedication really made a difference.Throughout the entire process I truly felt supported and in safe hands, which is something I hadn’t experienced with other agents during my search.I’m very grateful for all the help and support he provided and would highly recommend Alan to anyone looking to buy a property. If in the future I ever decide to sell my property, buy again, or need the help of an estate agent for any reason, Alan will definitely be the first person I contact.Thank you again for everything!
Our experience with Barnard Marcus was mixed. Going to the viewings and liaising with the estate agents was fantastic, particularly the Redhill branch, Peter and Gareth. They were super helpful and flexible in supporting us with our first time purchase. However, once we confirmed our offer and got further through the process, we were handed to a senior sales progressor from the New Malden branch who was rude and condescending, trying to pressurise us as first time buyers to expedite her sale. She called us extremely nervous and naive, informing us that we should ignore the results of our home buyers survey as we are holding up exchange, although we only had one simple request to check the boiler. Overall, we would have given 5 stars if we didn’t have these conversations with this individual. We had a good experience and now have the keys to our home.
Everyone in the Ealing branch was extremely helpful and friendly especially Noah, who showed us many different properties and worked hard to find the properties that were of most interest to us. Even though we didn't go ahead with one of their properties I would recommend him to anyone and want to thank him for his hard work and kindness. 5/5 Service
