They knew their market, and the property sold very quickly, even if completion was eventually delayed for a number of months because of the buyer's circumstances. No fault of the agent, who always had an alternative buyer available if I had chosen to pull out. As it was, they were always attentive, stayed in touch and kept me informed of what was happening, which reduced stress levels considerably!

It's without surprise that I've found Douglas Allen to be an awful estate agent. We should have listened to our own judgement to begin with when we were approached about selling our flat as Sale By Tender. We considered the practice totally immoral, but were talked round in to doing it by Dan. ... Read Full Review
Treated us with respect and been more cooperative when selling our flat. Dan told us a list of things they would do for us that all fell by the wayside. Living up to that list would have been enough. But most of all, treat their clients with respect and follow a decent code of practice. Don't hide behind clauses and contracts that they can see are immoral and not applicable. I've never had such an experience with a company - anywhere.
As above. We consider that we were duped in to paying such a large fee. Never again, would I use them.

Andrew was fantastic help throughout the whole of the process.

Throughout the whole period of acquiring court orders... Read Full Review
