I had a really tough sale, the process dragged on for months longer than it should have. My conveyancer felt distant, getting some answers out of them was like getting blood from a stone. I don't know what I would have done if it weren't for Jackie Morgan, she looked after me from the Darlows side of things. She was incredibly quick to respond to my emails, actually answered questions and kept me in the loop.

That said, it’s wonderful to hear how well Jackie supported you throughout. Keeping communication clear, staying responsive and making sure our clients feel informed every step of the way is exactly what we aim to do. I’ll be sure to pass your kind words on to Jackie, she’ll be absolutely delighted to know she made such a difference during a difficult sale.

Refuse to let you out of your contract with them even after their service has been extremely poor. Lock you in with no option to terminate and then provide terrible service. Unfair terms and poor service. Do not use

Staff have very poor communication skills. It was very hard to get hold of anyone who knew what was going on with my property purchase at all. I was told wrong information by staff, and always had to chase for updates. It was an exceptionally disappointing experience. I just wanted simple updates and for someone to know what the status was - I was disappointed.

I had a fantastic experience with Darlows Estate Agents. They sold my house within just four days of it going on the market, which completely exceeded my expectations. From start to finish, the whole process was handled with real professionalism. The marketing was excellent, the photographs were so good I genuinely felt like booking a viewing of my own house! They showcased the property beautifully and clearly know how to present a home to attract buyers quickly. Communication throughout was also outstanding. Both Hannah Moss and Eleri Page kept me informed every step of the way and were always approachable, helpful, and quick to respond to any questions I had. Their support made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Darlows Estate Agents to anyone looking to sell their property. A brilliant team delivering exceptional results.

I should say I never met an Estate agent like Emma , she was very honest about the property and all the details she gave was so convincing . she really cared about our needs and understood what we wanted As we are new to this country and did not know much about the area she was able to give lot of information which took our fears and doubts away , and it made us feel that Area is good and safe . She is very kind , friendly and approachable , we did not feel like she is doing her job alone ,we felt like she values our family and our financial situation. we are in the process of buying a property . She keeps us updated . I should say Darlow Rumney branch is a great company ! Thanks again!!

Senior sales advisor, Emma was very proactive and supportive throughout the process. She explained everything clearly, kept us well informed at every stage, and always responded quickly. What really stood out was her genuine guidance, she took time to understand our needs and made sure we felt confident in every decision. It truly felt like she cared about helping, not just completing a sale. She was also very approachable and patient, always happy to answer questions no matter how small. Her professionalism and honest advice made the whole experience much smoother and far less stressful for us. We would happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated estate agent.
