Report
Rented for the first time with Baker Estates Hainault and what a lovely experience it has been. The flat we moved in to was clean to start with and well maintained. Throughout the duration of our tenancy the team was very friendly and professional. We are now moving for work purposes (very sad), but we hope to work with Baker Estates Hainault in the near future when we take out a mortgage. Special thanks to the manager Sarah, what a lovely lady!

Sarah in lettings is really good, efficient and honest. Likewise, Kerrrie in sales. We have dealt with both and cant rate them highly enough.
