Great service

Great service from Dandara moving from one flat of theirs in Jersey to another. They've been especially helpful liaising with both landlords to make dates line up etc. Thanks to Brendan who has been a great help.

Mxed Minds about Dandara.

I am in mixed Minds about Dandara.In Octobre 2021 I signed a purchase agréement (Tunbridge Wells, Kent) and thé sales service from Dandara was excellent. Unfortunately my buyer pulled out and i couldn't exchange on thé agrééd date and as a result i Lost thé house. Although i found another buyer very quickly and wanted to sign for another house on thé estate, thé sale team were extremely poor this Time round and i almost got thé impression that they didn't want me to buy ??!! Thé consultant who had accompagnied me since thé beginning no longer answered my mails and i someone else "took over" yet this consultant didn't know any of thé History or exchanges that i had had with thé first sales consultant. Then thé first consultant would pop UP every now and then but in a very "i am not really involved / i've moved on to something else" manner...it was very incohérent and i felt very "abandonnéd". I don't know if thé team was tired as they were at thé end of a 5 year sales programme or if they just didn't Care however thé service was very poor at thé end. It all Turned out ok and thé purchase went through second Time round as i did alot of pushing and insisting however i was very disappointed particularly with thé sales consultant who disappeared.My biggest "problèm" with Dandara is that their sales team is very pushy to get positive feedback via reviews published. When my first house purchase fell through my sales consultant asked me to put a comment online suggesting that i mention this and that and that i Say good things on her service. My review reflected my expérience until that day however After thé poor sales service for thé second house i felt that thé sales consultant should have waited until thé end of thé sale before asking for a review. This may have motivated her to do a better job second Time round? Today i now have another sales consultant writing /calling every week asking me to fill out a New homebuilders survey even if thé end date is mid August ! And it was even said in his mail " please reply truthfully however if you could put a yes for recommending us it would bé much appréciated and this will help us keep our 5 star rating". Firstly i think it is way too early to Ask for honest feedback from New home owners and thèse suveys should bé done After a year of living in a New home as any issues that may arise will probably NOT bé in thé first 4 months. Just a "yes" at thé end of thé survey allows for a 5 star rating but doesn't take into account other comments. Also i find it a little inappropriate for Dandara sales consultants to Ask customers to give reviews before complétion and thé handing over of keys and suggesting what areas to comment on. Clearly this influences thé reviews in a distorted manner. Anyway my house sale went through, thé house seems generally ok (After 3 months). Thé After sales Customer service really needs to bé improved as i need to chase alot. Some Snagging issues which date back to thé day i moved in have still not been resolved and this is not in alignment with thé Dandara promise...Issues - customer service After purchase/ Dandara promiseSales teams pushing for reviews way too earlyI am however enjoying my house, i love thé neighbourhood and apart from thè minor issues i am in général pleased (moved in 2 months ago).

We want to say how delighted we are with the help and support we have received from Joe and Andrew at the Nightingale Place , Battle marketing suite. They have been so good at answering our many questions, have been patient and the level of their grasp of the Technical information has been great. My husband is a Building Engineer so we are familiar with plans. The attention to detail by the Dandara Team is wonderful and the whole site is carefully set out and enviromentally sympathetic.

Attention to detail from beginning to end

Thanks to Alanna and the team at the Hazlewood developments. The pre-sales team were very accommodating to our situation and requests for viewings and information. Everything was clearly explained and the purchasing process happened to our requested schedule without any hitches. After moving in, the team have been helpful and responsive to the few snagging items we have requested attention to. We love our new home and really appreciate the quality of the Dandara build.

I don’t think trading process is fair

I don’t think trading process is fair. The sales assistant get to decide who can reserve including themselves friends or who they want. If you have the money it should be a first to reserve process on release.In my experience you don’t have a robust or fair process for reserving properties.

We were greeted by Becky, she was brilliant. Understood what we wanted and were looking for. Wasn’t pushy and allowed us to free roam. She also gave great advice about the local side of where the properties are, as we didn’t know the area.

Shawfair development- New Build

We bought a new house within the Shawfair development and Carmela was amazing from start to finish. She was really supportive throughout the process which continued into the after sale of the property. The assistant site manager Andrew and his team have also been really great in rectifying any minor snags quickly and efficiently.

Great customer service at Hazlewood

Although we didn't end up buying a house with Dandara (simply due to timing of when we needed to move versus the availability of houses), the help, assistance and communication from Andrea at Hazelwood was second to none. She kindly kept us informed of the progress of the houses in the size/style that we were interested in, provided information about timescales/costs and when we needed a little more time to work out our budget etc, she didn't put any pressure on us at all but checked in now and again incase we needed anything. I can't fault the professionalism and kindness!

I recently moved to Jersey with my family and getting an accommodation wasn't that easy as many people have forewarned. During these period I met Brendan (Dandara) on one of my visits in search of a house. He was very helpful and my interaction with him was reassuring. Albeit we did not get the accommodation of our first meeting but I and my family were able to secure the next accommodation through him and at this time our temporary accommodation stay was almost over. This was a huge relief for us. I will always recommend Dandara services to anyone coming to stay in Jersey based on their assistance and services rendered to me and my family. Thank you Brendan of Dandara.
