Dear Mr Carter,Thank you very much indeed for your kind words relating to Janine Briggs and your 5 Star review. Janine is one of a rare breed, a Sales Progressor who is 100% focused on turning a sale into a home-move and has been successfully doing this within Douglas Allen for almost 30 years! Most agents don't employ Sales Progressors and hopefully you have positively benefitted from our decision to do so right across our company.Thank you very much for choosing Douglas Allen to sell your home, your custom is genuinely appreciated.Regards,Jon Holden - Managing Director, Douglas Allen

Ann Marie, Stuart And Andy have made the process of buying a house so simple and streamline it’s been an absolute pleasure working with all three. They are all very attentive and make it a conscious effort to make the customer feel comfortable and confident about their decisions at all times. Thank you once again for all your help.

Called to arrange a viewing for a property at 1200 on the Saturday. Made a couple of calls to arrange it. On the Saturday gave then a call at 1205 while waiting outside of the property. Manager Wayne did not have a viewing listed and asked who I arranged it with. I let him know that it was with Spencer. He gave Spencer a call and called me back. The viewing was not apparently confirmed and the property also has an agreed offer on it. Be sure that your appointments are confirmed in writing if you want to view a property. At no point was o told the viewing would not be going ahead. The manager Wayne was very apologetic and handled the situation well on the phone. However I travelled about 20 miles to view this property so am not particularly happy.NegativeProfessionalism

Dauglas Allen Basildon Branch

Simon at Basildon Branch was very professional and provided us with all the information we wanted. We agreed on sales after the open house which was pretty quick and credit to their advertising power. I will recommend Dauglas Allen Basildon Branch to family and friends in future. Thank you Simon and your great team.

I do not recommend

I would not recommend this company even if you are desperate to sell your property. They approached me to list my property and when I said the price that I want is £345K for a new build 1 bed flat 77smq on a main road, they suggested that I am not going to achieve even £300K. This is even less than what I paid when I bought the flat in 2019!They are just looking for an easy sale without much effort.Also, they keep suggesting their mortgage adviser who is apparently working in their branch through a partnership as the best specialist in the area. When I had a chat with her and mentioned that I used L&C mortgages before, she said that "they are not that good, don't they", well they are actually amazing and FREE. When the sales agent spoke with me it sounded more like he tries to sell this lady's services than helping me to sell my flat. Honestly, this is a horrible and very stressful experience, especially for a first-time seller, who is trying to make their next move.

Fantastic service and very helpful indeed. They also continued to be helpful once I had decided to buy a property with another agent as I felt that was the right one, which is a level of professionalism which is impressive (for example by recommending a surveyor). Particular thanks to Aseena and to Stephen.

We started looking for a property just 2 months ago and since registering with Douglas Allen Billericay, we have been fortunate to have been looked after by the branch manager Caroline. In this short time, she has been endlessly proactive, engaged, insightful and responsive. Always professional but with a real charm that makes her a pleasure to be house-hunting with. I could not recommend her more highly.
