Fantastic letting agency. I needed a place let for a short time. It can be challenging to find a one, especially in London. Nontheless, shakir helped me to find one in a week. Furthermore, he and his colleagues were incredibly friendly, honest and helpful prior to and throughout the duration of my tenancy. I will definitely choose Fraser bond for my next visit. Highly recommended.

The bad reviews about Fraser Bond are correct and I fully concur with them. Wish I had read these reviews with them before renting with them.
BIG WARNINGGG!. The guy ended up being a THIEF, SCAMMER and HARASSER.
WARNING AGAIN! I rented a flat for a short period in central London and when I returned the keys at the end, despite perfect check out conditions, I have never received my 1200.00 GBP deposit back (it has been 10 months) despite numerous reminders, calls, emails, letters to Mr SHAKIR KAPADIA or Fraser bond they never replied to all my sollicitations or took any action!
NEVER contract with this Agent, I hope the word will spread in London.

Thanks Guys for assisting me purchasing my new apartment. I finally found the right home with the assistance of Shakir and his team who knew exactly what I was looking for. From start to finish to even introducing me to the right broker to get me a deal which was affordable and really my dream place. Shakir also assisted in negotiating a deal which saved me a little extra too. Thanks again guys. I recommend the team at Fraser Bond as they know they're talking about.

Please avoid at all costs!!!!! Totally incompetent staff, especially Shakir.
Booked a viewing and did not show up, didn't answer the calls either.
Contacted the next day to find out what happened, was completely alright until he started screaming at me and coming up with a million excuses. Shocking customer service. After running out of excuses he started denying that we had a viewing booked at all!
I emailed him snapshots of his own messages and call logs, received no response. He finally picked up after 3 hours, screaming again with no excuses left once I provided the evidence, clearly had a break down which was obvious over the phone and politely told me to f-off. Can't even imagine what the actual tenants are treated like if potential customers are treated like this!

I recently sold the apartment and dealt with Shakir who I found to be diligent and energetic. Shakir identified a buyer within a fortnight of placing the apartment on sale which reflects the tenacity with which he deals with sales. The entire team were a pleasure to deal with throughout and I highly recommend them

I required an apartment as I was assigned on a contract to London for a short period of time. It was near enough impossible for me to find and apartment for a term of 3 months and if I did the prices were astronomical. The commute from Cambridge to London daily was just too long. so preferred a place in London. I called up Fraser Bond and spoke with Shak who assisted me and provided a list options which were within my budget and centrally located.
My company headquarters based in Embankment I preferred something close by as I was working long hours. I chose a lovely a 1 bedroom apartment on Newman Street, just off Oxford St which met all my needs and fully furnished. it was a non hassle free process. Thanks for the assistance, definitely recommend.

I have booked a flat in Central London for a short period and had to pay a 750.00 GBP deposits. When I returned the keys, every hing was perfect excepted that M. Shakir Kapadia is in SILENT mode since then because he stole the deposits and never answered to my numerous calls, emails, letters etc... What a shame for a real estate agent to steal money from your clients.... in London! So do not let, buy, rent even a Quechua Tent at Fraser Bond! Shame on you Shakir KAPADIA! I am not surprised to see that I am not the only one who got ROBBED! we should sue him in a class action!

Worst Agent ever! I booked a flat in central London for a short term and M. Shakir Kapadia never returned to me the deposit that I left despite my numerous reminders, calls, letters. He simply ignores you, and I noticed that he is used to proceed this way with tenants just check for Fraser Bond rating on internet! It is pure theft!

I was seeking a 1 bedroom apartment within Central London as I was appointed by company based in Luxembourg for a part time project based in the U.K. I happened to find a few reasonable 1 beds within the area however the One I stayed in presented by Fraser Bond difeinitly met my expectations. Dean and Bruce both were exceptionally helpful on the phone and also for when I arrived. I also happened to meet with Shakir who manages the Central London branch and had a lengthy chat about all that can be done whilst I was visiting.
The apartment I rented was situated in Piccadilly Circus where I stayed in Manhattan style studio. The apartment came fully furnished with High Speed Wifi too. The guys in the office were attentive at all times. a few spotlights in the living area were not working and someone had come straight away to fix the issue. I appreciate the assistance that was given and most likely will be leasing an apartment through Fraser Bond again. Andy Snail

Pure Scam! Warning! I booked a flat through Shakir Kapadia agency, but once inside, lots of things were missing and in a poor conditions despite being in central London! Bulbs missing, humidity stains, washing machine broken etc. and the worst, The agency stole also my deposit despite having returned the flat with zero problem! They just kept the depsoit and ignored my numerous sollicitatikn! I think I am going to the county court and High court to get a Writ as it appears they are used to scam tenants.

Thanks for the accommodation guys. Quick to resolve my issue, as I was only here in London for a month and was in urgent need of accommodation. At first I was in search for a 1 bed apartment in Central London, however slowly began to see that it was becoming near enough impossible and way out of my budget. I called Fraser Bond and spoke with Shak who was kind enough to assist and send across alternatives for what I was looking for.
He sorted out a sweet 1 bedroom apartment for me in East London which was fully furnished including Internet and within my budget. The apartment I have to say was not was I expecting but nevertheless it worked for what I required in London and easy to get to work. The team were responsive to my needs when cleaning was required. Thanks for assisting.

DO NOT TRUST THIS COMPANY. We had a contract with them as tenants. The room we rented for our son on 512 Brixton Road was very poor and overpaid. We left the room in a good condition and have proof of this but we never got our deposit back, despite numerous mails and telephone calls to Shakir Kapadia. We would higly recommend tenants to go somewhere else.
