Very happy with all the help and advice I received from Khaleesha Said-Love-day at your South Woodford office. Khaleesha was very knowledgeable about the area. Her approach was both friendly and professional. This has greatly influenced my decision to focus on the area. Thank you!

“Having walked into the busy branch a lady approached me and offered her assistance. I was really thankful that she did because she managed to book me a mortgage appointment, which then secured me a fantastic mortgage. I only later found out that the lady that helped me was a branch secretary called Allison.
Everyone in the office was really friendly and overall a much better service than any other on the high street

TrustpilotChingford Douglas Allen - AVOID
I am afraid thay my experience was negative and after agreeing a % for commission with me an unnamed meber of the team decided that this conversation would be conveniently forgotten and a new and higher % would be quoted. Unfortunately this company do bear out the reputation of Estate Agents being untrustworthy, slippery and after one thing and one thing only - a sale. Beware and my advice would be to go elsewhere.

TrustpilotHigh quality service
In the very complicated journey of finding a property I was lucky enough to meet three superstars at Douglas Allen. Daniel, Joe and William from the Barkinside branch were extremely knowledgeable and helped me throughout. Not only did they provide all the necessary information very efficiently, but they also added a personal element with their very useful advice. I've rarely come across such reliability in this industry and I would highly recommend them!

TrustpilotNot very good
Once I signed there was very little feedback as every time I spoke to someone in the office it was a different person and they all told me different information. I was not very happy about the mortgage advisor, she missed the right amount of mortgage and i paid 2000 pounds more on my deposit.
Absolutely not pleased with the solicitors they reccomended me .
I certainly would not recommend their services

I recently instructed Douglas Allan for the sale of my Apartment. Initially I was involved in a conversation that was an appraisal feedback and fee quote etc. I was really just looking for the cheapest deal. After speaking with David I quickly came to the conclusion that he was the agent for me.David has not let me down and has sourced a buyer on the first open house. Very pleased!

Dear Chris, thank you for taking the time to add the feedback regarding David and the team at the Hornchurch office of Douglas Allen, As many clients the initial fee is part of the decision process, although as a company we are proud of achieving the very best price for the client and tailoring our service to ensure that we build the maximum interest and allowing a choice of buyer wherever possible. We look forward to continuing to offer you a great service through our sales progression team, aiming to allow you to move in your preferred timescale.Kind regardsPaul IngletonAssociate Operation Director
