this is review is for East ham branch !

this is review is for East ham branch !I was disappointed"I was disappointed with the services provided . There were several instances where I had to follow up multiple times to get a response, and the agent seemed to lack knowledge about the properties they were showing. In addition, there were several mistakes in the paperwork that caused delays in the process. I would suggest that improve communication and attention to detail to provide a better experience for your clients."

Go elsewhere. Greg the manager lied to us from day 1. Pressured us in to selling to someone who didn't have the funds and took our house off the market when we clearly stated we wanted it to remain on the market. Waiting weeks for call back and saying Greg wasn't in the office when I was outside the store and saw him. I wouldn't sell through douglas Allan even if it was free. Please stay away, these are the kinda people that give estate agents a bad name. I requested all calls which was agreed then just ignored. GO TO ANY OTHER ESTATE AGENTS

Excellent service in difficult circumstances

I've been really impressed with the service I've received from Douglas Allen in Walthamstow over the last few weeks: sales manager Ammer Haroon was very proactive in getting the ball rolling when I found a property I was interested in, and branch manager Maria Ticehurst has been working really hard to iron out any issues with the vendor's solicitor, despite the COVID-19 lockdown. I'm in good hands there!

Great team at Douglas Allen Chingford…

The team at Douglas Allen Chingford have always been very friendly and helpful in selling my house. However Natasha was particularly helpful in following up calls to solicitors and buyer to make sure the transaction eventually went through to exchange. Although the sale took longer than expected, I am happy with the outcome.

Would like to thank Simon and Chelsey of Douglas Allen for their expertise in selling my late fathers house. They certainly know their market. What they said would happen actually did and the house was sold in 2 weeks from going on the market. They are professional, friendly and attention to detail was second to none. I would recommend without hesitation their service to anyone selling or buying a property.

Rose Green & Richard Lewis

Chelsey has been very supportive during the process of my brother's house sale. It was very challenging at times, however she was always there to offer advise and update us on the situation. This all happened during Covid 19. Her work ethic on point.She is an asset to DA, and for that reason we would not hesitate to recommend this company to our family and friends.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service from Natasha and the team at East Ham. Having been on the market with another agent for 6 months I was beginning to despair. Going with Douglas Allen was the best decision. Within two weeks of making the phone call to Natasha they had done the photos, hosted an open day and I had an asking price offer! Done and dusted. Efficient communication and professional. Highly recommend.

Great support for first time buyer

I have found this estate agent in Walthamstow super helpful! As a first time buyer it is a pretty daunting task to buy your first property but the whole team and especially Maria have been really supportive. They have offered additional services and information without being too pushy. It’s been good building a rapport with them and would recommend to anyone trying to buy a property in E17

Ryan has been brilliant, both myself and my family have been highly impressed with the standard of service I have received. Ryan is knowledgeable, professional, prompt and friendly.

Great agents

Douglas Allen was able to sell our house faster than 2 previous agents we were with. We spoke with many helpful colleagues at the Chadwell Heath branch. One of the main people we spoke to was Bilal. He was very helpful and friendly and always made sure things were upto date and communicated in a very polite and kind manner.

Hassle free professional experience!

My case was handled primarily by Peter Arrowsmith, who was incredibly polite, helpful and professional in keeping me updated as to what was going on with regard to my purchase. As a first time buyer he and the rest of the team at Douglas Allen made my journey from viewing to purchase a much easier experience than I was expecting. I cannot recommend Peter and everyone at DA highly enough.

Christy at Douglas Allen couldn’t have been more helpful with my property search. She’s very informative, let me know of things to look out for when buying a house and even recommended I instruct a solicitor before I find my home so I’m prepared. Being a first time buyer it’s hard to know what you should and shouldn’t do. Thank you Christy for helping me with this.

Signed up due to Maureen!

We signed up for listing our property with Maureen Grey at the East Ham branch as she was an absolute pleasure to work with. She had a wonderful nature, transparent and professional in ALL aspects of her conduct. The rates offered are great and we are really excited to be on the market for what we hope will be a success. Either way, we certainly recommend Maureen and can’t speak more highly of her! Thank you, Rishi & Brioni Lal
