Shaan Grewal Published on Google 1 month ago

Fantastic experience: Our house move took a year due to a long chain and even before the chain started to form, in the process of looking at properties we ended up speaking with what felt like every local agency there is in Hertfordshire. Collinson Hall were easy to reach, they had a proactive approach to communicating with us throughout and it feels like they took the lead amongst the various agents in our 7-vender chain which I appreciated. Michèle Austin was the contact we worked most closely with and she was professional throughout and guided us through the ups and downs, as the chain evolved through the 11.5 months from property viewing to completion.

It was a long road, however even with the twists and turns that took almost a year to move forwards we got there in the end.
Chains need to be pushed forward or moves simply don't happen so to see your lovely feedback is great to read and share your experience. Michele really does try to keep everyone update and in the loop on every move. Thanks again and we hope
You're loving your new home.

Hi Amy. We always try to make the process of buying a home as straight forward as we possibly can. When we are working with great purchasers the bumps in the road are quickly dealt with.

Brian Hollingsworth Published on Google 5 months ago

Fantastic experience: Due to the quirky nature of the property to be sold, I felt an individual approach to selling was required. Given their track record over many years, Collinson Hall seemed the most appropriate agent. I was not disappointed with the excellent service I received from firstly Rob's realistic valuation & marketing approach, through Mark & Michele's constant updates on viewings & progress to Ron overseeing it all. And, all done with a great sense of humour that selling this particular property probably required. I would certainly recommend them if you are looking to buy or sell.

Brian, what can we say it was a pleasure to help with such an interesting and individual home.

Again thank you for trusting us with the sale of your amazing family home.

RL M Published on Google 6 months ago

Fantastic experience: Selling a house is always stressful but the Collinsons team made it as smooth as it could be. Rob talked sensibly to us about valuation and marketing and we got a buyer very quickly. Then Michele kept us informed, did a great job of coordinating with the buyer’s side and generally keep things calm and on track throughout a sometimes painful conveyancing process. It’s now all done and we’re very happy with the service from Collinsons overall.

Fantastic experience: The team at Collinson Hall were always so accommodating and approachable. They never made me feel like a nuisance, asking to have 3rd and 4th viewings with my builder. They were a great "go between" for both solicitors and were extremely understanding when I needed information on pet ownership at the flat. Everyone I dealt with was professional and friendly. Lastly, thank you for your card and fizz - a really lovely touch at the end of such a long process.

Jackie L Published on Google 7 months ago

Positive experience: I recently let my property through Collinson Hall and found the whole team most helpful. Emma, Sam and Elizabeth in Lettings - they advised on how best to present property, completed all necessary paperwork for both tenants and I in line with new tenancy and statutory regulations, along with ensuring we had both completed all our legal disclosures. I had let the property before through Collinson Hall but much had changed in the eight years since the last time and guidance was most welcome. Additionally this time I decided to update/refurbish the property before reletting. Kim in Property Management was on hand to help with quotations and suggestions along with putting my requests into action and ensuring we had completed all building checks needed to market the property. I was amazed how quickly once I had agreed the details that viewings took place and had a new tenant lined up within a couple of days. Thank you all so much for all the help and advice and for making it easy for me to relet. I should of course not forget the accounts team who have been excellent at keeping control of the monies in and out and providing me with statements on a timely basis. I particularly liked the fact that the various departments and people were all kept in the loop so no matter who I talked to they were aware of what was happening and timescales. Thank you everyone and I hope that the new tenants feel as happy as I do that everything has been completed so easily.

Adam Maskell Published on Google 8 months ago

Fantastic experience: We couldn’t be more impressed with the team at Colinson Hall. From the outset, they valued our property at the price we believed it was worth, while other agents valued it nearly £100k lower. This either reflected a misunderstanding of the market or an attempt to secure a quick sale from those other agents. Our home ultimately sold for over the asking price, proving just how accurate and confident Colinson Hall’s approach was. Their fee was unbeatable and fair, showing that it's not all just about the money. They care about referrals and repeat business too. A special thanks to Roberto and John, who have been professional, approachable, honest, and highly knowledgeable throughout the process, always remembering personal details that made our interactions feel genuinely valued. Most importantly, we want to give huge credit to Michele. We firmly believe that without her, our transaction would not have been possible across the chain. She consistently went above and beyond her role, maintained excellent communication, and was instrumental in keeping the process moving smoothly. Colinson Hall have truly shown how brilliant and valuable an estate agent can be, and we recommend them without hesitation.

Hi Michelle. It was a pleasure dealing with the sale for you, as you said there were some bumps along the road with a purchaser withdrawing but we knew that we could get you moved and not just at a lower price but as you pointed out the asking price and to a lovely family.

Hi Luke, it was a pleasure dealing with the house sale for you.

Hi Rachel. So happy that you and your family have found your new home. Like always there's some bumps on the road to making a purchase but so glad to see that we got there for you in the end. Enjoy your lovely new home.

Negative experience: I have seen evidence that Collinson is potentially behaving illegally, namely continuing to advertise rental properties and arrange viewings once someone has paid a holding deposit on said property. They were not receptive to attempts to notify them that their actions are in violation of the Tenants Fees Act 2019 and resolve amicably. I would not recommend this estate agent if you would like to have a hassle free and anxiety free rental experience

My name is Steven Walker and I am the MD and owner of Collinson Hall. I do not believe that you are a client or have had direct dealings with this company. If I am misinformed please can you clarify your details and which property this relates to. If you would prefer to do this by email you can contact me on [email protected]

Notwithstanding the above, we believe we understand your relationship with someone who did have contact with the company and with whom there was an issue that has now been resolved.

We operate within a complex legal and compliancy environment with obligations placed on us by a number of regulatory authorities which can sometimes be difficult to navigate.

As a full response would require me to put information of a personal & private nature into the public domain I am limited on what I am prepared to say. However, I do not believe that you will have been aware of the whole picture.

Under the circumstances, I would ask you to consider whether your review is appropriate and to remove it, please.

From start to finish, they’ve been absolutely amazing — professional, friendly, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Their communication was always clear and timely, which made everything feel smooth and stress-free. A special thanks to Ron, who went above and beyond to make sure every detail was taken care of. His dedication and insight truly made all the difference. I’m so happy with my new home and genuinely look forward to working with Collinson Hall again in the future. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Rob, Ron and Michele and team were all excellent at each stage of the marketing, sale and sales progress process. We had a very long and protracted journey from offer through to exchange with many hurdles along the way, but the team diligently pursued our interests and kept us well informed throughout. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: The staff at Collinson Hall are knowledgeable, friendly and are prepared to take that extra step to help match clients with the right property.

Roberto Pancaldi Published on Google 9 months ago

Fantastic experience: Although I initially contacted Roberto Argenio under the impression that he provided valuations for buyers, he took the time to speak with me and was incredibly helpful regardless. Even though his role primarily supports sellers, Roberto was generous with his time and offered valuable insights into the property I was looking to purchase. He discussed the valuation in a clear, honest manner and also gave me practical advice around the lease extension, which helped me better understand the implications before proceeding. I really appreciated his professionalism, transparency, and willingness to assist—even when it wasn’t strictly within his remit. Roberto’s guidance gave me greater confidence in my decision-making, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone seeking expert advice on property matters. A genuinely helpful and knowledgeable professional.

Negative experience: I don't suggest renting a property from this company. When we first viewed the property, they told us we could keep whatever we wanted (i.e. the dryer). When we first moved in there was no dryer and they argued that it was advertised as unfurnished. The property had mould coming out from every corner which shows that it was not well insulated. A year later, when we were moving out at the end of tenancy, mind you it was in the contract and we were fully transparent that we had a dog. We were charged over £400 for cleaning particularly because there was pet hair on the carpet. Do not advertise properties at pet friendly when you will be charged for the fact that you have a dog. The house was left in a cleaner condition at end tenancy then it was given to us in the beginning of tenancy.

Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans
Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans

We have tried, without success, to contact you to talk through the concerns you raised. We have always, we believe, acted in good faith on behalf of our client, the landlord, and have followed best practice in doing so.
The property was marketed as unfurnished, with the white goods included clearly stated as the fridge/freezer, oven, and hob. A dryer was not advertised or included as part of the tenancy; however, a washing machine and dishwasher were provided. We appreciate that verbal comments made during viewings can sometimes lead to differing expectations, and we regret any confusion caused.
At the outset, an independent inventory clerk conducted a detailed check-in inspection and recorded the property as being in “good decorative order” and cleaned to a "good domestic clean standard". No mention was made of mould or damp at this stage, and we did not receive any reports of such issues during the tenancy.
At the end of the tenancy, the independent check-out report identified a number of areas requiring attention. These included a soiled oven, pet hair in the carpets and shower tray, staining within the washing machine, and a general decline in cleanliness compared to the condition at move-in. There were also signs of mould in the stairwell and bathroom, as well as dust, cobwebs, and items missing or inconsistent with the original inventory. The overall condition of cleanliness was assessed as "average domestic clean".
While your tenancy agreement permitted a pet, tenants are still expected to return the property in the same standard of cleanliness.
A professional cleaning quote was obtained, which included tenancy cleaning, oven cleaning, and carpet treatment. This was shared with you in advance, and following your written agreement to the proposed deductions, the remaining balance of your deposit was promptly refunded.
We are committed to fair and transparent practices and always aim to resolve matters with clarity and respect. We regret that you felt disappointed, but we trust that our processes were conducted in accordance with industry best practice and your tenancy agreement.
If you wish to take this matter further, we would encourage you to follow our formal complaints process, which can be found here:

Fantastic experience: We’ve had a consistently positive experience with Collinson Hall throughout our rental journey. Having been tenants with them in our previous home, we’re delighted to continue with them in our new house as well. Their team has always been incredibly supportive and responsive, making the entire rental process smooth and stress-free. A special thank you to Samantha for her excellent support and guidance during the process of securing our new rental home – her professionalism and helpful approach made a real difference. We’d also like to thank Kim, our current agent, for her ongoing support and responsiveness in managing our existing property.

Fantastic experience: I cannot recommend Collinson Hall highly enough, I had two properties on the market one in St Albans and the other elsewhere being sold by another estate agent, and it very quickly became apparent that not all estate agents are made the same, in my experience Collinson Hall are the the gold standard. Everyone I had contact with within the company from beginning to end where utterly professional, keeping me advised of progress at all times, actually being proactive in selling my property and providing me with sage advise and guidance, which led to an excellent sale price and a satisfied buyer and seller. They where worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Collinson Hall highly enough! From the very first conversation to the final closing, they were professional, responsive, and incredibly knowledgeable. Buying a home was very stressful for me, but Roberto and Ron made the entire process smooth and even enjoyable. What stood out most was Roberto’s enthusiasm and Ron’s dedication and hard work he invested in our purchase. They listened closely to what I was looking for, offered valuable insights about the market, and guided me every step of the way with patience and transparency. They were always just a phone call or message away, ready to answer questions or offer reassurance. Thanks to their expertise and persistence, I found the perfect home—and felt confident every step of the way. If you're looking for someone who genuinely cares about their clients and goes above and beyond, look no further than Collinson Hall.

Fantastic experience: I wanted to take a few seconds to thank the following ladies who have made this journey successful. Starting with Samantha Hodge who was kind to arrange the meeting with Ms Emma Ross who showed me the lovely maisonette and followed up with a phone call the following day to get my feedback on the place where I will be living soon. Paperwork, to all those who know the hassle of doing this following step, if it wouldn't have been for the help of this Lady Mrs Elizabeth Cole, who managed the whole operation it would have been a nightmare. I'm sure Collision Hall knows who they have representing this firm. Exceeding customers expectations to the end. Top notch in my book Thank you ladies for such support, great team work Rossano

Stephen Wilson Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: A Renter’s Nightmare My nightmare began just six months into my tenancy agreement. What started as a small roof leak, which I immediately reported to the landlord as per my agreement, quickly escalated due to multiple failed attempts at repairs. The landlord’s repeated "bodge" jobs made the situation progressively worse, eventually rendering the property uninhabitable. I was forced to leave, as it became unsafe to stay. After trying to resolve the issue directly with the landlord, I decided to involve the property management team and informed Cristina about the situation. Unfortunately, her first response was a threat of re-renting fees, rather than offering any real assistance or addressing my concerns. By mid-December, just before Christmas, I was left without Roof windows in the property. Cristina sent one email in December apologizing for the situation, but there were no follow-ups or escalation, which I would have expected from a professional property manager. I found her handling of the situation to be unprofessional, and her actions seemed to favor the landlord’s neglect rather than the tenant’s safety and comfort. I would not recommend this company to anyone seeking a professional rental experience.

Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans
Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience, and we would like to take this opportunity to clarify the situation.

Until the middle of December our Property Management team were unaware of the ongoing situation with the repairs as you were in direct contact with the Landlord. The role we had agreed with the Landlord was that they wished to deal with repairs themselves and that we would facilitate communication where required, and when you contacted us in mid-December to request an early release from your tenancy we engaged with the landlord on your behalf to try and find a resolution.

In accordance with the Tenant Fees Act 2019, we were obliged to inform you of the potential costs associated with early termination. Landlords are permitted to charge tenants for ending a tenancy early where it results in financial loss or reasonable re-letting costs. However, we understand that this was a difficult situation, and in the end, your landlord agreed to forgo any early termination fees.

When we contacted you in early January it was to advise you that your landlord had been trying to reach you to address your concerns but had been unable to make contact, you informed us that you had in fact already vacated the property in December.

We would like to assure you that our team always strives to act professionally, fairly, and in line with our responsibilities to both tenants and landlords. At no point was there any intention to disregard your concerns, and we regret if this was the impression given. Our priority is to ensure that all parties receive a fair and balanced service while adhering to the legal framework in place.

We value all feedback as an opportunity to improve. In this instance we will be looking at how we make it clearer about the extent of our role. We remain happy to discuss any concerns further if you wish to contact us directly.

Negative experience: Communication needs some work. 3 phone calls, 3 different people told me they’d look into the return of our deposit and get back to me. None of them did. 4th time of calling was then told it was nothing to do with them and needed to speak to landlord direct. He was just as useless at communication and so our deposit return went way over the 30 days stated in our contract. A simple task of returning our deposit took 7 weeks!

Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans
Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans

Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you experienced delays in the return of your deposit.

To clarify, Collinson Hall was not responsible for the management of your tenancy. The landlord opted for a Find Tenant Only service, meaning that all tenancy matters, including the return of the deposit, were to be handled directly by the landlord. Our role was limited to registering the deposit in a government-approved scheme.

We appreciate that clear communication is important, and we regret any confusion caused during your enquiries. As soon as we were informed of the landlord’s instructions regarding the deposit release, we acted on them without delay. However, as the decision ultimately rested with the landlord, we were unable to influence the process further.

We take your comments on board and will review how we can improve communication where possible

Louise K Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: I'm a tenant in a property being sold by my landlord through Collinson Hall's sales team. Over the past year I have found communication to be extremely poor. Appointments to access the property have been cancelled last minute on several occasions. Viewings have been booked in but not confirmed with me (I've had to call to confirm and they seem surprised when I ask which of the offered times they have chosen), agents have arrived late to viewings or to unannounced viewings with lackluster apologies and excuses of being told someone should have rung me - they didn't. I've complained privately many times and received apologies but they now just seem meaningless as the same issues arise again and again. When my time is being wasted preparing for viewings that may or may not happen, and being left feeling disrespected as a tenant, I don't think I am being unfair by now choosing to make my displeasure public.

Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans
Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans

Dear Louise, thank you for your feedback. I sincerely apologise if you feel our communication hasn't been at the expected level. I have taken onboard that you would prefer viewings confirmed via text message rather than email which we will address in the future. Unfortunately buyers can let us down at the last minute which we know can cause inconvenience to you, however this is out of our control. I have looked into the last viewing that was running behind because of traffic, my colleague did call the office so that we could contact you, but unfortunately the staff managing the office at the time were all on outbound calls and didn't get to the message in time for one of us to call you. I hope this addresses your concerns, and I look forward to working with you going in the future.

St John Published on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Pre-scheduled a viewing which was cancelled, after pleading with the agent to view as I travelled 3 hours they let me view I proposed the offer before arriving not wanting to waste time. Which by the way was 3 months in advance plus deposit. Already showed all relevant documents of income/ savings. Was false promises when I would be told the outcome Which after chasing multiple times was told rejected. Not sure if they treat all their potential tenants like this but this was a very bad experience and I would not recommend!

Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans
Collinson Hall - Estate Agents & Letting Agents in St Albans

Thank you for your feedback, and we sincerely apologise for the inconvenience you experienced.
Regarding the viewing, the difficulty arose when the current tenant, who had initially agreed to provide access, later refused. As soon as we were informed, we contacted you immediately to try and prevent a wasted journey. Despite this, we did our best to accommodate your request, and we’re pleased we were ultimately able to arrange a viewing for you.
Following receipt of your offer, we communicated all the details to the landlord. Although they initially had some reservations, we made every effort to address them on your behalf. However, after a series of discussions, the landlord ultimately decided to decline the offer and has since withdrawn the property from the market.
We understand how frustrating this must have been, and we apologise for any distress caused. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we will use it to improve our processes. If you have any further concerns, please don’t hesitate to get in touch

Fantastic experience: Thank you for all the help you provided in the purchase of our new home. It has taken a year to complete due to people at the top of our chain changing their minds on what to do plus our 1st buyer not being able to get their mortgage after months of waiting for them. Your communication and patients was much appreciated along the way.

Fantastic experience: Thank you so much to Alison Stephens at Collinson Hall for taking ownership of my purchase and ensuring it was completed as efficiently as possible. Alison contacted shortly after my offer was accepted and explained all of the steps to get to completion. The journey was not as smooth as expected due to external factors, but Alison took ownership of any issues that arose and kept me informed. Thank you so much Alison!

Fantastic experience: Outstanding Service from Emma I recently worked with Emma to find a new rental property, and I can confidently say that the experience was exceptional from start to finish. Emma went above and beyond to ensure everything went smoothly, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. Emma’s expertise in the rental market was evident from our first conversation. She took the time to understand exactly what I was looking for and used her deep knowledge of the area to find properties that perfectly matched my criteria. Her advice and guidance were invaluable throughout the process. What really stood out about Emma was her commitment to keeping me informed. She was always prompt in responding to my emails and calls, and she made sure I was up-to-date with every step of the process. It was clear that she genuinely cared about making the experience as stress-free as possible for me. Emma’s attention to detail was impeccable. From arranging viewings at times that suited me to ensuring that all the paperwork was completed accurately and efficiently, she made sure that nothing was overlooked. She even took the time to explain the lease agreement thoroughly, so I felt completely comfortable before signing. Overall, working with Emma was an absolute pleasure. Her professionalism, warmth, and dedication to her clients are truly commendable. I would highly recommend Emma to anyone looking for a seamless and positive rental experience.

Fantastic experience: Really a great experience - which is a novelty with estate agents. Very professional, quick to respond, they keep their promises, communication is open and transparent - everything you want from a letting agent. If you're a tenant, you can rent with confidence.
