Winkworth Reading Estate Agents

4.6(712 reviews)·Reading

Winkworth Reading Estate Agents holds a 4.6 rating from 712 Google reviews. Sellers and buyers frequently praise Greg Darby and Trudy Zemaitis for guiding them step-by-step through sales and purchases, including chasing unresponsive solicitors and offering practical advice, while lettings negotiator Isabelle Evely is repeatedly credited with making rentals smooth and stress-free. One reviewer described a negative selling experience, alleging poor follow-up with viewers and pressure to reduce the asking price; this appears to be an isolated case set against an otherwise strongly positive pattern of reviews.

If what you’re looking for in an estate agent is someone who says all the right things, puts in the least amount of effort possible, gives you a lot of viewings to make it seem like they’re doing something but can then never get in contact with those people again, don’t show any enthusiasm or have any answers during those viewings, and seem to do everything possible to work against you, then this is the estate agent for you! They will promise you a price and then after a week insist that you lower it. After two years of trying to sell through High Street estate agents, we finally came to our senses and went with somebody who actually knew what they were doing. If you actually want to sell your property, do what we did and contact Ollie Hawkins at Avocado, or anyone from Avocado (or non-high street agents). He sold it within a week of listing it, actually seemed to care about what he was selling and the people he was selling it for and is actually a really nice guy. Don’t make the mistake we made for as long as we made it. High Street agents don’t care about you or your property, they only care about the numbers.

We contacted Winkworth regarding our need to let a 3 bedroom, 2 bath apartment in Central Reading, beginning in July 2026. We were fortunate to receive a reply from Charlotte Ebdon “Executive Assistant to the Directors at Winkworth”. Right from the start, Charlotte made us feel we were in the right hands with no problem being too much for her, despite us being in California with no British credit history. After ascertaining our needs and preferences, she quickly found the perfect apartment for us. Every step was then clearly explained and dealt with in an efficient and systematic manner. She facilitated a smooth application process for us with the apartment owner. Charlotte’s warm personality made this whole process manageable for us and we are very happy with our new rental apartment.

We have had the most amazing support from Greg and Trudy at Winkworth whilst selling our house. Their expertise has guided us through the whole process, we could not have done this without them. They have taken us through step by step, keeping us updated, telling us what we need to do next. It is a very stressful time selling your house but Winkworth made it happen for us, we cannot recommend them enough, they are amazing, don't chose any other Estate Agent

John Partridge provided an excellent service throughout my property purchase. From the initial stages through to completion, he was consistently professional, responsive, and proactive. Communication was always prompt, and he took the time to answer my questions clearly and thoroughly, which made the entire process much less stressful. He was particularly effective at coordinating communication between myself and the seller, ensuring that any issues or queries were addressed efficiently and without unnecessary delays. His advice was practical, honest, and genuinely helpful at key stages of the transaction. I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and reliable estate agent. His professionalism and commitment to keeping the process moving smoothly were greatly appreciated throughout my purchase.

Absolutely fantastic service from Winkworth, we sold our 4 bed house and brought new. The end to end journey was made a whole lot easier, from the valuation and viewings through to the great communication and updates from Trudy. I have and will continue to recommend Winkworth's services as second to none.

Had a great experience selling our home through Winkworth. Greg was very responsive and understanding when organising house viewings around having a toddler at home. Trudy was excellent at keeping us updated with the sale and offering practical advice when issues came up.
