TrustpilotQuick sale and professional service
We advertised the property with other local agents who were unable to sell the property for quite some time, but Douglas Allen with the work ethics , enthusiasm and professionalism were able to get an offer within one week of advertising the property. Lucy Chirstopher was exceptional.

Poor sales negotiators and the inability to return calls meant that Douglas Allen was a no go for me. There were plenty of other reasons too like inflexibility when trying to do a short term contract and a sales fee that had no flexibility were the main reasons I chose not to go with them.

GoogleDouglas Allen were brilliant to us throughout the whole process. The system that they use to keep you updated with viewings, feedback and offers is so refreshing and comforting when you are going through the stress of selling a house. Freddie in particular worked tirelessly with us and with other agents from different parts of our prospective chain to do all he could to help secure a buyer. I could not fault him for his effort, his communication and his relationship with us.
