Bought a property from KFH Battersea

Bought a property from KFH Battersea. Only a selection of keys were provided by the office once completion was confirmed. One key was missing and I had to purchase this key for £15 from the buildings reception area.

I messaged the agent who confirmed the error also acknowledging not all of the keys had been given when I visited the office.

Asked for a refund of £15 due to their error. They refused to give me a refund. What ever happened to customer service!! I will never use this agency again. Extremely disappointed!

Excellent property management

Shane has been our property manager for a year now and has been outstanding. He is always available to reach out to and has resolved issues in a timely manner and checked in afterwards to confirm they have been resolved. Would highly recommend him.

Property Manager

KFH is managing my property for years.
They are great specially Shane Simpson who is my Property Relationship Manager. Shane is fantastic in what he does. He’s friendly, patient, committed and communicative. I couldn’t ask for a better property manager.

Property Management at it’s best

My Property Manager Nick at KFH is excellent, he always goes over and above to offer help and support to me as a landlord. Which in itself is a rare occurrence in this day and age but especially appreciated as part of a large company. I could not recommend anyone more highly if you are looking to entrust your property to a professional.

Very disappointed again

Very disappointed again. As soon you sign the contract with them they don’t care about you much. Really disappointed.
The first years were better, especially the first year but as longer you stay with them they care less and less and less about their customers.

Exceptional service

The property manager Jess is always very helpful. I sent her an email regarding a concern I had in the flat, and she was straight onto the issue, and communicated back very quickly. The service is exceptional.

Since Lily Porter began managing our rental property, the difference has been noticeable straight away. Our emails are answered quickly and clearly, which makes everything much easier as a tenant.

Any maintenance issues or jobs we’ve reported have been dealt with promptly, and it’s reassuring to know things are actually followed up and completed. Lily has been very helpful, professional, and proactive throughout.

It’s made a real improvement to our experience renting the property. Thank you, Lily!

Helpful and attentive property management

Lily is responsive and clear in her communication when it comes to navigating any repairs or questions we might have had since moving into this rental property. She's knowledgeable and reassuring, always professional when liaising between ourselves and the home owner, seeing each request through thoroughly.

Support

KFH have been our managing agent for many years now and I have always found the support to be professional, timely and very helpful. Shikha was a brilliant managing agent for some time and has handed the baton onto Lauren who is doing a wonderful job in supporting me as a landlord.

Star Agents a representation of professionalism

I had the absolute incredible professional and proactive agent namely Emirson Hajrizaj who was an absolute trooper who took me through the entire process of buying my first property and all the good poket areas within South East London. I was extremely impressed with his dedication and attitude towards finding a property that was not only suitable but also ideal for my business. I would highly recommend that these guys represent an example of ideal agents and they really care for your future and well being. Thanks Emirson, I will definitely hit you up for my next buy. Thanks again for being so patient and understanding through the entire process. I wish you guys well and hope to see you soon for my next property.

Mohamed and his team (Alisdair and Chris) have been amazing. I have two properties rented out by them. They have gone out of their way to deal with any issues I’ve had and dealt with it courteously and promptly. With regards to getting tenants, they listen to your remit, and have been proactive in getting appropriate tenants which I have had difficulties with past letting agents. Whenever I call Mohammed, he gives me excellent and honest advice, and always goes above and beyond what is required of him. I am really pleased with the service KFH lettings team has given me over the years and would definitely recommend them to others.

Consistent professionalism from start to finish

I’ve worked with KFH Southfields Sales on more than one occasion, and what stands out to me is that they are not just sales agents — they are true partners throughout the process.

Connor, Laura and the wider team consistently demonstrate integrity, follow-through, and clear communication. In an industry where things can sometimes feel purely transactional, KFH Southfields operate with professionalism and accountability.
They say what they will do — and they do it.

Having navigated more than one complex process with them, I have always felt supported and well informed. That consistency builds real trust.

I would confidently recommend Connor, Laura, and everyone at KFH Southfields to anyone looking for an agent who values relationships, not just individual deals.

Forever grateful!

Jess and Naomi are great to work with

Jess and Naomi are great to work with - highly recommend.

At the Earlsfield branch, Jess and Naomi have been brilliant to work with - always going the extra mile to make renting out a flat as straight forward as possible. They are very much appreciated.
