We chose Douglas Allen to sell my late mum's property after meeting with the branch manager Stuart Pass and finding him knowledgeable, personable and enthusiastic. We had some initial problems with our solicitor and Stuart dealt with these professionally. Due to the lockdown situation we didn't have as much contact with the agents as we would of liked but after mentioning this, Natasha kept to her word and updated us on a weekly basis. We would happily recommend this company!

Unfortunately I believed what the branch manager said Douglas Allen would do to promote and sell my property. In reality it all comes down to the price of your property with them and the constant calls to lower the price to get the sale. They stopped giving feedback after a while. The property went ...
