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.

I rent my Mum’s house out through Cubitt and West. Big shout out to Marc Steels and the team who have been amazing. I was apprehensive about being a first time landlord, but the support and advice from Marc has helped me immensely. I would not hesitate to recommend this team. Very good people - the rental market needs more of them.

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.

Excellent Service…

Back in May we wanted to purchase a property through Cubitt & West in Pulborough, Unfortunately we were pipped at the post by another purchaser. We did say to Kevin Taft that should the property come back onto the market please would he be kind enough to let us know.

Eight weeks later and true to his word Kevin emailed to advise that the property we had wanted was unexpectedly coming back onto the market and would we still like to have a viewing.

We jumped at the chance and Kevin who was very accommodating moved his diary around in order that we could be the first people to view the property the following afternoon.

Upon viewing the property we submitted an offer which was accepted and we couldn't be happier.

Jo Branch Manager, Kevin and the team went to great lengths to ensure that firstly we secured the property we wanted and secondly that the sales memo and other documentation was completed and sent out the following day.

We couldn't be happier with the service that Jo, Kevin and the team provided. Excellent service right from the get go.
We would definitely recommend Kevin and The Team without hesitation.
Thank you guys, we are looking forward to a speedy completion.

Rhys Whiteside is a fab estate agent!

My partner and I have looked at countless houses over the last few months, and Rhys W has been our favourite estate agent by a mile. He was always easy to get hold of, quick to organise viewings, knowledgeable about the houses he showed us and never badgered us for a decision. The properties he showed us were beautiful and appropriate and realistic choices for our needs and wants, and we are so grateful. He allowed us to enjoy the excitement of looking at houses, while minimising the inevitable stress. Thank you Rhys!

Outstanding service from start to finish

My wife and I sold our two-bedroom property in Leatherhead with Cubitt & West, and we couldn't be happier with the service we received. The team was professional throughout, always keeping us updated with prompt communication and even offering helpful guidance while we searched for our next home.

A special thank you to Alia, who made what can often be a stressful selling process feel much more manageable and even enjoyable. We really appreciated all of her support and would highly recommend Cubitt & West to anyone.

Garry Wheeler @ Cubitt & West

Garry Wheeler @ Cubitt & West

Garry was exactly the kind of estate agent you want in your corner when a sale gets complicated. This wasn't a straightforward transaction, it took patience, persistence, and a genuine commitment to getting it over the line and Garry demonstrated all three throughout. He kept communication flowing, managed expectations on all sides and never let momentum drop even when things got difficult. His calm and professional approach made a real difference during what was at times a stressful process. I'd have no hesitation recommending Garry and the team at Cubitt & West to anyone looking to sell in the area.

Exceptional Services - Highly Recommended

I cannot recommend Yasmin, Georgia, and the Letting team at Cubitt & West Sutton branch highly enough!

This is my second time working with them. My first experience was excellent - I felt so assured leaving my property with them that I choose them again without hesitation.

Throughout the entire letting process, Yasmin an Georgia have been incredibly responsive and professional. They found great tenants for my property, and have always been quick to respond.

But what truly touched me was how they handled a recent emergency. I accidentally left something important to me in the property after the tenants moved in, I was absolutely devastated. They responded immediately, Georgia went to check the property, and managed to fin it. I honestly can’t express how grateful I am - it meant the world to me.

Their quick response, genuine care, and willingness to go above and beyond are exactly what makes them stand out. If you’re looking for a letting agent who truly looks after both landlords and tenants, they are the ones to go to.

Katarina and the team have been incredible through the long and often complicated process of selling our flat in Reigate. They have been patient, and the right amount of flexible yet forceful when needed. They are also fantastic communicators. We got lots of updates when we were on the market and they were super proactive with getting us viewings. Particularly compared to other estate agents we have been with before. Once we were in the process of selling the support didn't stop, it was truly brilliant. We really appreciate all the effort that went into this sale and would 100% recommend them to anyone selling in Reigate!

Disappointed with the property management service


I am disappointed with the property management service I received. As part of the service charge, I understand that an annual property inspection is included. However, when the inspection was due, the agent informed me that they were unable to access the property and asked the tenant to record a video instead.
I do not believe a tenant-recorded video is an adequate substitute for a professional inspection carried out by the agent. The purpose of paying for an inspection service is to have an independent assessment of the property's condition.
I would appreciate an explanation as to why the inspection was not completed by the agent and whether any refund or compensation will be provided for the inspection service that was not delivered.
Overall, I am dissatisfied with the handling of this matter and hope the company will improve its service in the future.

Wonderful company, friendly, helpful and responsive

We have been dealing with a lovely lady called Lilly Palmer, we are in the process of relocating from East Sussex to Hampshire, and selling our flat to my brother. Lilly has been super responsive with emails, always happy to talk on the phone and when our mortgage advisor let us down with linking us up with their solicitors, Lilly was quick to act and hook us up with their in house solicitors and mortgage advisors so we didn't loose our dream house.
