Cant fault their Eltham High Street branch

Sold through Acorn in 2021 and was pleased with the service. Both Oliver & Max were great, very helpful, and always available if I had any problems, which I did have at one point when my buyer pulled out, however it wasn’t long until they found me another. Also, when Oliver first visited my property he was the most professional of the estate agents I contacted, which is what persuaded me to use Acorn even though they weren’t the cheapest fee-wise. Dominic was also really helpful with the after-sales service.

Acorn Strood

Acorn Strood 2nd time for myself using Acorn & I have never been disappointed with the service received. The staff are always lovely & helpful & make a stressful process easier. I would thoroughly recommend them.I wouldn't use any other agent having seen how other agents operate compared to Acorn. Dan was amazing, Alesha was so helpful, Remmi & Jonathon. They are a lovely team.

Godefroy was very friendly and approachable. He was very communicative and was always available to discuss the sale process and give advice. He was a great listener and had a high attention to detail. In the end he got me the sale outcome I wanted and I was very happy so thank you Godefroy for all your hard work!

I am grateful To Banji and Giovanna for their help with my search for a new home. Banji was pro-active in responding to my queries and inviting me to viewings which met my brief in a challenging market. Giovanna answered queries efficiently and without delay. The wider team were approachable, and Acorn's processes so far have been straightforward and easy to follow.

Wonderful Service by the lovely Amelia at Acorn!

I have to commend the professionalism and hard work of Amelia Giles at the Acorn Group. The way in which she continued to keep us informed and up to date with the progress of our property sell was fantastic. She listened with attentiveness and was always on hand to assist. I would highly recommend Amelia to assist in the buying/selling of a property. Thank you Amelia!

Thank you Adam Gould & the Kennington team

What can I say about the 5 star service I received from Acorn, Kennington. There are not enough words to describe the exceptional customer service, advice, support, patience, knowledgeable expertise and friendliness that I received whilst dealing with them. My journey started with them in October 2020. I had been passed on their details from a friend and contacted them immediately for an evaluation. Adam Gould the Manager of the Kennington branch came out within a few days and did a thorough evaluation. He was very open and transparent but also showed his vast knowledge of the industry and the property that I was selling and informed me of the things that I needed to do to maximise my sale chances. I have been on a journey with Acorn for just under a year now. We started during the pandemic, had umpteen lockdown downs, but their service never ever faulted! I was in the best hands ever!! It was my first time selling a property and there were so many variables that I encountered during this process that without the Acorn team I am not sure I would have been able to sell my property. They followed strict Covid guidelines, always provided me with feedback from prospective buyers and were very accommodating when booking viewings as I was working from home. In the early stages of the process the first buyer pulled out of the sale and the team were really good in supporting that journey but also managing my expectations. At that point I was ready to give up, but I listened to the expertise of Adam and he never steered me wrong. His 25+ years in the industry stood me well and his newly appointed staff member Sophie was able to secure another buyer who also offered the asking price. The journey to say the least was bumpy and at times utterly frustrating but that was nothing down to Acorn that was through external parties and factors that were out of both of our controls. But honestly without Adam always being on hand (sometimes out of working hours) sending emails and making calls to the solicitors and the buyer, pushing the process through the most difficult of times the sale would not have been completed. He was literally a god send! I owe him and his team so much more than this review. There are a plethora of estate agents in Kennington all next door to each other, and I have been in contact with a fair few of them but have never received the level of customer service and genuineness that I had when I used Acorn. If you are looking for an estate agent that goes over and above for their clients and takes a genuine interest, cares about both parties and is passionate about the industry that they work in and the outcomes that they achieve then please use Acorn. I promise that you will not be disappointed. I am forever indebted to Godefroy Herissay, Sophie Fowler and owe everything to Adam Gould.

We had a fantastic service from Jack…

We had a fantastic service from Jack Mallon from the Peckham office showing us 2 properties in the area. Jack went out of his way to explain and answer all we needed to know about the properties and the area. He understood very well the type of properties we are looking for and was really willing to help. We were very impressed with his skills, knowledge and politeness. Me and my partner agree that Jack is by far the best estate agent we encountered.

Excellent experience

I have had an outstanding service from Acorn's property management team including Laura Whelan & Conor Norris since August 2019. I'd like to mention Amanda McPherson as an outstanding property manager; she is friendly, professional & efficient. She has been there whenever I've needed something.Furthermore when I sold my property, Daniel Milligan valued it in an honest & professional manner, securing the asking price on the first day of viewing. Throughout the sale, Dominic Lloyd, Leo & Sharon Costen made it a smooth and trouble free experience. Thank you

Great team at strood!*****

We couldn’t be happier that we have sold our home with Acorn. The whole team have been absolutely amazing! We Didn’t feel pressured to sell at all, not like other estate agents you can feel pressured into being pushed for a sale. From start to finish you have all been so friendly. We couldn’t be more thrilled we have sold our home through You.Everyone has kept us so informed and every member we have dealt with has been so patient and professional. Our house sale Almost fell through and josh sladden kept it all together and always communicated with us to let us know what was happening. Josh went above and beyond for our house sale and we truly cannot thank him enough. He is a credit to the team! Thank you to everyone involved in our sale, Jonathan, Jamie, josh and anyone else who we have dealt with. You’ve all been amazing! Thank you Acorn I’ll definitely be recommending you. Mr & Mrs Temple :-)

Great experience with Blake

We will shortly be moving into our new rented property, which has been organised through Blake. We have used many of the big agents in the past, and this has been our most positive experience by far - after seeing the flat on Rightmove, Blake arranged a viewing for us within a few hours and by the next day had secured the flat for us. He has been extremely responsive whenever we have had questions, and generally everything has progressed very smoothly and quickly. We've also dealt with Sian who has also been very professional. From a tenants perspective I highly recommend.

Acorn at Blackfen are wonderful - 10/10!

Acorn at Blackfen are wonderful! Don’t be put off by their fees, there is always room for negotiation, but bear in mind, you do get what you pay for and I think Acorn are worth every penny.From the moment we were introduced, and we discussed the terms and conditions, I went away and compared them to other local estate agents who we had around. Despite coming out as the dearest in commission, I felt a confidence with Kevin (our sales rep) that he meant every word he said and I trusted him to sell our house.Once signed up, Kevin and the team worked together. Kevin was always calling to keep me updated with house viewings, progress etc. If I called Kevin and he wasn’t available one of his team (namely Poppy) would be available to chat. Likewise, when it came to viewings, if Kevin wasn’t able to make the date/time arranged, Poppy would step in. There was even an occasion when the receptionist Tegan stepped in to drop off some keys as Kevin and Poppy were unavailable. Great teamwork! When it came to exchange and completion Kevin was always in contact with our solicitor and also kept us in the loop at all times. If there were any questions that needed answering from our buyers, Kevin would immediately inform us, so that we could get these answered straight away to avoid any hold ups.I would happily (and do) recommend Acorn! 10/10!

Best service a landlord can get

I am an overseas landlord. Acorn team especially Lilia Ghenim and her back office team has been so helpful in coordinating the move with old tenants to new tenants. She made sure me being so far away is not a concern for anyone. Communication has been crystal clear, service provided is professional and moreover hassle free which is very important for an overseas landlord. Thank you Lilia and team for all the support.

FABULOUS FIRST CLASS SERVICE

Ok I recently purchased my new house through Dan in the Dartford branch. I can say that he was down to earth and very helpful in every aspect. He was continuously contacting me and updating me every step of the way. Sorting out numerous problems that unfortunately unfolded through the covid 19 with my purchase. I would thoroughly recommend them if you want your sale pushed through with no messing about. Dan was available on his personal mobile at all hours. He is very knowledgeable about all the criteria that I needed advice on and very personable. His professional attitude was second to none.... Acorn are Lucky to have such a driven member of there team. So was I. 😊

Acorn Kennington

Acorn, and in particular Adam Gould and Godefroy Herissay from their Kennington branch, come highly recommended. They were honest, professional, responsive and good-humoured throughout the entire process and were instrumental in getting the deal over the line. Not sure why buying/selling a property is as hard as it is, but the value of a good agent was made clear to us. If you are in Kennington and, like we were, overwhelmed with the number of property agents (every second shop seems to be one), would highly recommend dropping in to see Adam.

A person called Vincent as an agent…

A person called Vincent as an agent from Acron Crystal Palace was extremely rude, was not wearing a mask during covid, wanted to compare my earnings against me. Contacted the office to complain about this person they hang up on me then I called again and spoken to a manager and still waiting for his call. Based on Vincent conversation he records all voice calls without any disclaimer, I told him it was out of law he did not care and wanted to argue showing he was better off them me. my and my friend was just stating that the flat looks different from the picture but he still argues and disrespects me ... I assumed customer service was number 1 but thought wrong ... I am still waiting on the Manager call. ... Contacted Yousef Branch Manager but seem for Him i am the wrong person as Vincent is never nasty ... I and my colleague are the victim here but seem they just want the sell of an apartment and let Vincent not to apologies for his behaviour. GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Really great experience… Not!

We've had a really great experience finding and putting in a rental offer with The Acorn Group. In particular, Vincent Bui helped us through every step of the process and was always on hand if we had any questions or concerns. Thank you so much Vincent and the rest of the staff at the Catford branch!Edit:I've had to come back and edit this to reflect the continued service my partner and I have received, which has sadly been incredibly poor. Once we were passed on from Vincent to other members of the team (Connor & Ryan) our service has declined massively. We were promised a complete repaint and clean of the unfurnished property when we put the offer in (2 months before moving!). When arriving on the move-in day we found that not only had the flat not been repainted, it was full of the previous tenant's furniture and discarded personal items! Also the en-suite bathroom (despite apparently being professionally cleaned) was full of black mould - which was majorly concerning as I suffer from asthma due to our previous flat's black mould infestation. Because of this we'd emphasised the importance of having a mould free flat to Acorn multiple times and they'd been really sympathetic, so to arrive and find this was really upsetting. It was clear that no one from Acorn had been round to inspect the property since the previous tenants had moved out. Thankfully Acorn did arrange for the old furniture to be removed, but this took incessant emails, phonecalls and even marching down to the Catford branch to speak to them in person for this to be sorted, which was not what we needed on an already stressful moving day. We never got a further response on the mouldy bathroom other than 'well it was professionally cleaned', despite the fact that the inventory description and photos also show it being mouldy. As of this point, nearly 2 weeks after we moved in, we are seemingly no closer to getting the paintwork completed despite also regularly pushing for it and enquiring about it. Overall a real letdown from a company that (at first glance) seemed quite good.

They love wasting everyone’s time

They love wasting everyone’s time. Just rented a flat though them and they are extremely slow, we had to chaise them over 100 times to give us any updates on the status of the flat. After i have signed the contract and made the payment they wouldn’t relieve the key until I go to their office with my passport ( which was never a discussion before I made the payment) also I don’t understand why they couldn’t meet me at the property I won’t recommend them! Jayne was extremely unprofessional and slow replying to my emails!
