This is a bit of strange review as I didn’t end up buying any property from them. However, I still want to say that their staff were very kind and truly helpful. I felt like they were not just trying to make the seller’s interest but also mine. If I were a perspective buyer again, they would be my first choice to look for properties.

We worked with Ella to purchase a house in Exeter, and she was very friendly and helpful. Ahead of proceeding with the offer, we had to follow up our initial viewings (e.g. to scope out the possibility of a loft conversion) and this was all done enthusiastically. Communication with the vendor was also handled really well.

We have not yet started our tenancy with Winkworth yet, and are currently in the process of signing onto a house to let with them, however felt the need to say how excellent the staff have been in our search for a student property, in particular Emily Wall. She toured us around a few properties and was lovely, welcoming and understanding. She is extremely patient and professional and we would 100% recommend Winkworth especially if you are a student looking to rent in Exeter. Thank you so much Emily!
