TrustpilotAn exceptional level of high quality service from the Douglas Allen team
Within a week of marketing my property I had an offer. I put my trust in Douglas Allen to find the most suitable buyer in every aspect. I couldn't believe my luck when the offer was confirmed. I am very grateful to the team for being committed and using their knowledge and expertise to find a buyer.

TrustpilotInitial dealings with Douglas Allen - Stuart
Without sounding like a pre-written review, I can only say how impressed I was with Stuart and Douglas Allan.
From my initial visit to the branch to signing on the dotted line he has made me feel valued as a customer and he oozed professionalism.
I feel confident I will get the maximum price for my property.

After 18 months of trying to sell our house with 3 different agents, Douglas Allen sold it to a buyer from the very first open day. Says it all really! Robin, Sarah, and the team worked very hard to get it over the line and we couldn't be happier with their service!

TrustpilotFast, efficient and got the price we were looking for
Douglas Allen provided us with excellent service both in buying - and selling - our house and new property. The same agent (Ray Phipps) oversaw both purchase and sale, was available when we needed to speak to him and conducted viewings that resulted in at least five offers above our target price. We couldn't be happier.

I have been very impressed with the service, approach, professionalism, honesty and general support by Ammer Haroon in our journey finding somewhere to buy.

Douglas Allen treated me with respect and professionalism. I was helped pretty much by everyone, but I dealt specifically with Abbie and Chloe. They were both helpful, polite and professional.
