Following my original review

Following my original review, I provided additional evidence including Uber earnings records and bank statements to support the income declared on my application. The tenancy ultimately did not proceed because the landlord required a successful Goodlord referencing outcome. However, after reviewing the evidence, JWW agreed to refund the holding deposit in full. The process was frustrating at times, particularly due to delays and conflicting communication regarding the holding deposit. However, I appreciate that the matter was eventually reviewed by management and resolved, and the refund has now been received. Thank you to Ashley Mitchell for taking the time to review the case and bring it to a conclusion.

Agent replied · 28 May 2026

Thank you for updating your review, Frank, and for providing the additional documentation to support your case. We are glad that following a thorough review by management, the matter was resolved and the holding deposit returned to you in full. We appreciate you acknowledging Ashley's involvement in bringing things to a conclusion. Referencing outcomes are ultimately determined by the criteria set by landlords and third party platforms, and we understand that this can be a difficult process when a tenancy does not proceed as hoped. We wish you all the best in your property search and hope to be of assistance again in the future.

I recently used JW Wood for a property valuation, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From the very beginning, Joe Bennison was professional, communicative, and incredibly thorough. He took the time to meticulously inspect my property, carefully explaining his methodology and answering all my questions with patience. I was highly impressed by the turnaround time; I received my comprehensive, detailed valuation report much faster than expected. Joe's deep knowledge of the local housing market and precise attention to detail gave me absolute peace of mind.If you are looking for a reliable, expert property valuer, look no further than JW Wood. Exceptional service from start to finish, thank you, Joe!

Not one bad word to say about JW Wood Consett office! Julie & Denise have been absolutely amazing through the viewings to the offer on our dream house! I must admit I called the office multiple times a day which some estate agents have been a little let’s say ‘tired of’ yet not once were the lady’s there rude, tired or annoyed at my voice down the phone! From call backs, arranging viewings, relaying offers and then sending all documents for the acceptance to purchase has all been so easy and smooth sailing!
