Cubitt & West - Service Review

I had a great experience with Cubitt & West Horsham, particularly with Ethan Palmer, who helped me secure my new rental property.

From start to finish, Ethan's communication was excellent. He kept me updated throughout the process, was always clear about timelines and next steps, and made sure I knew what was happening at every stage. The whole process was quick, straightforward, and much easier than I expected.

Ethan and the team were friendly, professional, and a pleasure to deal with. I would definitely recommend Cubitt & West Horsham to anyone looking to rent a property, and I'd happily use them again in the future. Thank you for all your help!

Excellent, Professional, Helpful & Supportive!

I work with Marc & Robin from the Sutton branch and occasionally other members of the team. I have been with them now for over 20 years. The communication, support, professionalism and advice is second to none! Nothing is too much trouble and not living near my property, to know that these guys are always on hand, gives me incredible peace of mind! I would not hesitate to recommend this team and agency to anyone! THANK YOU!!!!

Amazing property manager

My partner and I rented through cubitt and west.
Safe to say we did not have a smooth experience due to the landlord of the property.
Thankfully, we had an incredible property manager who dealt with us and supported us through the entire process.
We do not think we could have gotten through the time without our property manager.
He would always reply as quickly as he could and he made it his priority to get us answers when needed.
Safe to say Marc steels is an amazing property manager and he made the difficult situations much better.
We always felt supported and listened to.
Thank you again Marc!!!

Saying It As It Is

Alia is excellent at her job. She is very helpful in finding out answers to any questions one has and lets one know the exact situation with whatever properties one is interested in. She makes you feel that your interest in any property by calling the company is very much appreciated and thus appreciation works both ways.

North End office - excellent service

Zoey from the North End office helped us with the sale of a probate property and was excellent. We had no hesitation in instructing her again to sell our rental property. Zoey and her team, Jasmine, Lilly and Vincent, were always available to answer any questions, kept us up to date with everything and were very supportive. The sale was quick and stress-free. Once an offer had been made, Julie made sure to keep us updated at each stage of the conveyancing process.

My flat sale

I have just completed the sale of my flat with Cubitt & West and have had a great experience throughout. What really stood out was how motivated and proactive the team were in generating viewings and securing offers. My flat sold within just six days of going on the market.
Since then, the process has been smooth, with excellent communication and guidance from the sales progressor, Julie Bramble, who made the experience far less stressful (thank you, Julie!).
A special mention also to Maddison for providing all the information we needed when signing with Cubitt & West, as well as Zoey, Jasmine, Libby and the rest of the team who have worked hard to help me and my partner find suitable properties for our onward purchase. Thank you also to Denise for conducting the viewings.
We feel like we've really got to know many of the staff, and they always keep us in mind when properties that match our requirements become available. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Cubitt & West to anyone looking to sell their home.

I have three flats which are managed by Cubitt & West. My main points of contact have been Thomas and Tom. We have had numerous quite complicated issues recently at two flats in particular.
I have found that Thomas has worked hard to deal with these on my behalf and his attention to detail and the customer care has been excellent. I can highly recommend.
Thanks Thomas & Tom

Julie, sales progressor, is amazing

We had Julie as our sales progressor and she was amazing. We had some troubles in the chain and she was chasing and sitting on hold for 12 minutes refusing to be palmed off until she spoke with someone to resolve the issues. She was speaking with everyone, pushing them to exchange and complete on time. We honestly could not have done it without her!

I previously wrote a review about this…

I previously wrote a review about this company when their salesman came to take on the property. His name is Robin. He had been very polite and promised excellence Service - two years down the line having had a tenant with them, they did not do their management checks, the tenant has completely destroyed the house to the tune of £8000 ( their own contractors) and they are the worst agent ever. Do not use this agent for your lettings they take your money and they treat your property with complete disregard. Service is appalling and although their salesman was lovely, he is just the front man for the business and the background is absolutely appalling.

Rented a place from them some 10 months ago and it has been appalling service from the start.
Everything I complained about was answered with -"it was in that state when you agreed to take it on".
Plumbing is a huge problem but apparently I need to use less toilet paper?
No water pressure so washing machine wouldn't fill and only sorted out 7 months into the tenancy.
Back fence broken and leaning onto the railway line.
Landlord and staff arrogant and rude. And accept no responsibility.

Great experience

We were tenants of a property managed by Cubitt & West for 3.5 years. Our point of contact, Marc Steels, and the wider team, were helpful, responsive and communicative. We eventually purchased the property we rented and the team were very supportive in navigating the process smoothly.

We asked if an administration fee could be wavered as we thought it was excessive to jasmine and thought this comment at the end of her email was totally unnecessary "If you were not happy with your rent due date this should have been something discussed before move in.".....not very good!

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry that you were unhappy with some communication that you have received.

We can appreciate that administration fees can be inconvenient and they are usually only imposed when requested changes require additional work from our staff in order to implement. This should have been explained to you and we are sorry if it was not.

Please be assured that polite and professional communication is always expected of our staff. Should you wish to discuss your experience in more detail, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Support department on 01702 540802 or at customer.support@arunestates.co.uk. Thank you.
