Met with a lovely lady Adriana today who reserved me a flat in Tower Bridge. Her attitude was excellent, and her knowledge of the area was amazing. I have dealt with many agents over the last 2 weeks and none of them have been attentive so I am very glad I met Adriana today and really happy I finally found a flat

I moved letting & managing agents after being recommended Cityzen Estate Agents by a colleague. They found a tenant for me within two days and were extremely helpful. Would definitely recommend and will be using them again in the future.

We rented through Cityzen back in January and given our previous experience of letting agents we didn't have high hopes! However, the team at Cityzen especially Misha was amazing, and nothing was too much trouble, we had a water issue in the apartment and Misha came personally to the apartment with the plumber to oversee the repairs. I would recommend Cityzen as they have restored our faith in letting agents again!

Just moved to Cityzen from another agency as they were recommended to me by a business associate. They rented my apartment quickly at a better price than I was achieving previously. Their team are responsive and have great knowledge of the market, Adriana was our main contact at their city branch.

I have just moved my property to Cityzen from another management co and have to say I have been pleasantly surprised by the quality of service I have received so far. The first thing they did was increase my rental income by revaluing the property, they then secured me a new tenant at a higher rent and more than I was previously getting. I think by working with a private company like Cityzen the attention to detail and service I get is far superior to the big corporate companies I have previously worked with.

Myself and my partner recently moved out of Whitechapel where we spent 24 months living in a flat managed by Cityzen. We had a good experience during our tenure and only moved to relocate abroad. On the two occasions we contacted the management about non-urgent issues, our queries were resolved professionally and quickly. Thanks again for a smooth and pleasant experience. We'll be in touch if we move back to London in the future.

No customer service whatsoever. I think they never heard of the term. We have rented with them, but pretty much I d say it was a business transaction nothing more. Asked for a couple of things like getting the keys one day before so we don't have to pick them up on Monday ( 9 to 6 pm, I normally work those hrs and cant pick them ), we were refused. Similar with other stuff. Very very poor customer service, plain business so to say, although not much business is there, is it
