I have been working with Shoeni and the team for 10yrs with nothing but efficient helpful knowledgeable assistance. Love them! Love they are local and established in the ‘hood. I’ve worked with sales too and can’t say enough nice things about working with Jake and his sales crew.

TrustpilotHorrible experience with this agency
Horrible experience with this agency. I am currently living in a 3 bed flat in Fulham where one of the bedroom ceiling has collapsed and for last 2 months the agency has been slow, practically unresponsive and simply rude. They treat tenants with such disdain it’s shocking. Do not use this company

Dear Ify Thank you for your getting in touch and we are of course understandably disappointed to hear this. We can see that the Senior Head of Property Management has been in touch and is currently in correspondence, alongside the Property Manager to help resolve this matter.RegardsJohn D Wood & Co.

TrustpilotSelling with JDW Summertown
We highly recommend prospective sellers to consider JDW in Summertown. Our experience has been first class and the JDW service was highly professional right from the start - realistic estimate of house value, knowledge of the local market and how to maximise our sale price and managing our anxieties and expectations throughout the whole lengthy process to completion. The team were always professional, responsive and friendly and definitely worked hard to help us achieve our sale. They managed everything - EPC, flattering professional photographs included as part of the service, all the very many viewings, right through to chasing solicitors and other parties all along the chain to achieve completion. If you are considering selling your home, then do consider calling Daniel or Wai at JDW.

Claire Carter (based at the Weybridge branch) handled my purchase from start to finish and was exceedingly efficient. I was on a very tight timeline yet she saw no reason as to why we could not complete on time and she held true to her word. She chased deadlines when needs be and kept me informed immediately of any requests for information or any news.I never had to chase her for an answer to any question I had and I hugely appreciated her transparency throughout the process. I cannot recommend her and the agency enough.

TrustpilotAverage performance
A recent new tenant who turned out to be very pleasant was found very quickly. The previous Tenancy Find was supposed to be for two tenants in the flat whereas in fact there were three and I was not happy about that.

TrustpilotDishonourable
After we had our offer accepted Sally Behan in Weybridge called to tell us we had been gazumped. We increased our offer above asking price but were told they wouldn’t sell to us. Turns out when the seller found out our name they decided not to sell to us for ‘personal reasons’When pushed about ‘personal reasons’ she then said that there was actually a cash buyer who offered asking price. That property remained on the market for 5 weeks after that before it said under offer. Friends of mine were able to call and make viewings during this time. Disappointing that a company owned by Skipton Building Society would behave like this. The honourable thing to do would be stop acting for the seller but the commission was clearly more important.

TrustpilotNot valued as a buyer
We had a really stressful time as a buyer with JDW Esher. Details of the conditions of our offer we’re not passed onto vendor at all; when confronted with this when the transaction was at risk, it was glossed over / denied. We were also told a delayed completion was ‘impossible’. We ended up dealing direct with vendor, with a delayed completion, without issue. Got the feeling JDW were happy for us to lose out and simply switch to another buyer.

TrustpilotTerrible experience- J D Wood Summertown
Terrible experience dealing with the Letting team in OxfordI wanted to rent an apartment in Summertown, the lady agent has been extremely unprofessional, instead of solving my issues, this agent was rude and asked for the same information twice. Whenever I have a question, she would just shoot me down without checking with the landlord. She has been impolite and maybe she didn't think I am not a capable tenant - I ended up paying double for a nicer apartment!

TrustpilotI wanted to give minus for the score
I wanted to give minus for the score, but I guess 1 is the lowest score permitted. I was looking for the room to rent, and finally found very nice flat. Before I can rent the room, I had to go through referencing process which was quite traumatic. They had the problem with my current landlord referencing; though I had provided my landlord's contact and they can make the direct contact to my landlord, they kept asking me for the document I didn't have. As the result, they changed the referencing platform and asked me to fill the landlord contact and my employer contact again. This time, they had the problem with contacting my employer (The funny thing was that they requested me to fill the form in evening and expected my employer to answer right away in the morning). Apart from that, unless they demand something from you, they will unlikely answer your e-mail. To be honest, this company treated me like I was begging to live in the room for free. On the bright side, I am glad that this is just for renting the room, not for buying the property. If you are the landlord or tenant, please stay away from this agency for your own good.

TrustpilotWORST company
WORST company - they try to brand themselves as trustworthy but are cut from the same cloth. I worked for them so can speak in experience but they stole my commission in broad daylight. They are simply conditioned to be a bunch of hypocrites and thieves and will ensure their bottom line is what matters. Strongly advise to stay away from them. Don't believe in their marketing - they are all black wolves in sheep's clothing.

The Parsons Green team have been brilliant throughout my whole process of finding and securing a rented property. From the first phone call to them, they have kept in regular contact and always been there to answer any questions quickly and efficiently. I'd like to especially mention Nicole C who has been there to liaise with throughout the whole process and has been approachable, efficient, and extremely helpful. Thanks again to the team

TrustpilotBuyer be aware! Stay away!
I lost 4 moths and 7k in fees because of misrepresentation. They fail to ask or choose to hide basic facts prior to listing a property causing a lot avoidable stress when you work with the right agent.This is fraud in the name of business Buyer be aware! Stay away.

TrustpilotAbsolute incompetency!
Terrible service and serious lack of professionalism. Moved in to the apartment 6 months ago and plenty of the issues are not fixed yet... and I am talking about serious issues like pests, water leakages and broken appliances. We have mice coming in and out of the apartment due to lack of pest proofing and a report made by the council. Yet they do not act. They bounce you from one person to another to wear you down and nobody in the company takes any responsibility. I have written to 5 people so far and nobody gets anything done. I think the only solution with these guys are to AVOID any property managed by them. Turns out the landlord is not aware of any of the problems. We will directly contact with the landlord even though she did nothing wrong but to trust these people.

TrustpilotVery biased towards the landlord
Very biased towards the landlord. Tenants please avoid if you want your deposit back as they would report issues at checkout that would be there at checkin. Last week I received an end of tenancy report which state issues which were present when my tenancy started. Since I've been taken advantage of many a times by rogue estate agents and I've learned my lesson so I made detailed recordings of the property at the start & end of the tenancy where I cover each and every inch of the property. I just emailed them one of the video and took screenshots from other videos that show that the issues were there beforehand. I did email Amy earlier that these were present at checkin but instead of checking the records she is going ahead to get repair quotes & ask for deductions from my deposit. I will leave as many negative reviews as I can! even register www. avoid-johndwood. com so innocent people can avoid getting ripped off.

TrustpilotTerrible experience, Not professionals!!
Terrible experience.They are unprofessional and unreliable.. Contacted agency and fixed a time view property in Headington, Oxford. I went and waited near the property and no one turned up. After 20-25 mins I called them again and they were saying let is already agreed on that property. They had no courtesy to inform me and the viewing schedule was not even in their dairy!! I would not recommend this agency.
