Lucy and Chelsey have both been brilliant during this Covid 19 lock down period. They have managed to secure a buyer for our property within the last 4 weeks.We have been very impressed with their commitment throughout these difficult time.In our opinion they are both assets to Douglas Allen and would recommend anyone looking for an Estate Agent to use this company.

TrustpilotVery poor advice and service from theβ¦
Chingford Mount Douglas AllenVery poor advice and service from the branch manager. He put a buyer forward with no proof of funds and agreement in principal. The buyer was an investment buyer and had to raise funds from multiple properties. The branch manager keep on telling me that the buyer have funds ready and kept on lying to us which was not the case. Douglas Allen dragged the sale out over 7 months where the sale collapsed at the end of the day. Complete mismanagement from their part. We made it very clear in the beginning that a buyer must have proof of funds and agreement in principle but the disregarded our request. They also become a bit of a bully when we terminated the sole agency agreement in August then told us again that we need to hand in notice in September when we decided to go with a different agent. I will highly recommend not to use this branch.

Being first time buyers it was great to have someone like Khaleesha guiding us through the process could not have been bettered. She was helpful and provided us with information when needed. With all the stories of first time buyers and how things could go wrong, again it was great to have a good team behind us, helping us to make the process as smooth as possible.

Douglas Allen in Chingford. Staff are very warm, welcoming and friendly. They work extremely hard to sell your property. They give honest and professional advice. They are always available to answer any concerns I found that James and Jesse listened and offered support when needed and they were never pushy and always put the customer first. Thank you for a wonderful customer experience.

From start to finish the service provided was of a high standard. Good photography, lots of viewings, we had offers within two weeks. The service between offer and completion was exemplary, our "Sales Progressor", Andrew, kept us very well informed at all stages and worked tirelessly on our behalf, chasing up solicitors and other estate agents in the chain, resulting in a successful sale.

We bought our second property through Douglas Allen and overall we had a very good service. Weβve viewed 3 properties through the agents and we put an offer for the one we liked. As this was a new built, they liaised well with the sellers and got us all necessary details. Jordan has always kept us up-to-date with the progress and assisted in inspecting this property.

This review relates to the East Ham branch. In my opinion and speaking for myself I have bought and sold many properties and used many estate agents over the years however this agent over promises and under delivers, the amount of calls I had to make and the amount of emails I had to write in order to chase up and push forward was unacceptable. I personally would never recommend or ever use this company again. I suggest you find an alternative agent in this area!

TrustpilotGood service
We purchased a flat in Forest Gate via the East Ham branch. The sale went through very quickly, and the staff we dealt with (primarily Waseem and Andrew) were generally helpful and friendly. My only main criticism is that on the occasions when we tried to contact the branch via phone and they could not take our call, they did not return our calls when asked.

Dear David,Thank you for your feedback regarding the team in my East Ham office. Waseem as you know has the job of helping clients like yourself to find their dream home and then passed the baton to Andrew for the after sales service. I am sorry to hear that on the odd occasion they did not answer the phone but we do have a call center that should pick up the overflow if we cannot answer it.Good luck in your new home.Rob wadeAssociate Operations Director
