TrustpilotWant the best Estate Agent?
After three firms of Brentwood Agents tried and failed to sell my house Monique from Douglas Allen in Brentwood came along and within a few days my property was sold. Monique provided a highly professional service with viewings arranged within days of being instructed and before it was even on Rightmove. She provided me with full feedback on every viewing and kept in touch regularly up to exchange contracts. I am now in my new home thanks to her excellent service. She told me she was not there to sell my house but to get me moved and she certainly succeeded. If you are wanting to sell your house and move then contact Monique at Douglas Allen - worth every penny.

We purchased our house earlier this year after looking for several years. We found Ray helpful when searching for houses. Over the years he learnt about our criterias and what we were looking for in a house. He would often get us to view houses before they went onto the market with our criteria in mind. Once we found the house and offer was accepted, Janine ensured the transaction went as smoothly as possible and also made herself available for any questions or concerns during that time.

Dear Jaanani,Many thanks for taking the time to post your 5 Star review of your experience when buying your home through our Wanstead office and in particular the help you were given by Ray and Janine. Ray must be the most experienced estate agent living and working in the Wanstead area and takes great pride in using his knowledge to find our customers their dream home. Janine’s value as a Sales Progressor is incredible, many companies don’t go to the expense of employing these but as you can see, her skill and all-round assistance are such an asset throughout what can be a stressful time.On behalf of our team I would like to wish you much happiness in your new home.Kind regards,Jon Holden - Managing Director

TrustpilotGreat service at Douglas Allen
I have had a great experience so far with Douglas Allen for the purchase of a flat. I have been mainly dealing with Maria Ticehurst, who has provided invaluable professional advice in the purchase especially as I am a first time buyer this support has been essential for me and helped me make my decision. So far, all communication has been quick and detailed and I have been informed off all steps which has given me piece of mind on the stages of the process. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Douglas Allen and Maria in particular if you are thinking of purchasing in the Walthamstow area.

I contacted Douglas Allen for a desktop valuation quote and spoke to a chap called David. I have to say he was very good and really helpful. He patiently took the time to answer all your questions with honesty and even offered additional advice to improve the selling price of my property. He knows his stuff and have given me detailed, honest advice with my best interests at heart and I have now walked away from this conversation with him with a definitive strategy.

TrustpilotUnprofessional! Dishonest staff.
Unprofessional! Tried to arrange a viewing of a property with this estate agent - Chadwell Heath office. They took our details at the beginning of the week - that we're not in a chain, mortgage in place, budget etc. Agent told us he would get back to us about a viewing. Didn't hear anything at the end of the day or following morning. So I called and enquired what's happening? They said they were trying to sort out a date with the seller. This went on all week always the same reply. We have not had this experience with any other agent; a long delay in sorting out a viewing or not being forthcoming with information as we asked is the property 'under offer'. Friday afternoon my husband calls again same thing. Later this evening I see the property shows on a website as 'sold stc'. They wasted our time by not just sharing basic information that an offer is being considered. Many other agents have the decency and professionalism to do this. Told a few other people this evening what happened and when I told them who the agent was. They all had negative experiences of this estate agent. Spoke to several of their staff over the week between my husband and I. Hope this makes others aware what they're like and they'll waste your time.

Dear Ms KhatunWe are sorry to learn of your experience whilst endeavouring to view a property through Douglas Allen and appreciate the frustration of losing out on an ideal property. Whilst the staff were trying to arranging a mutually convenient viewing time, the seller advised that they wanted to consider a revised offer from a buyer who had already viewed the property. The seller subsequently accepted this offer, declined further viewings and the website was updated. We hope that this reassures you that we were following our seller's instructions as required however please contact the Customer Relations department on 01702 540802 or email customer.relations@arunestates.co.uk if you would like to share any further information with us.Thank you.Douglas Allen

Really happy with the service I’m receiving from Douglas Allen Walthamstow. As a first time single buyer navigating the process Faisal has debunked the jargon and exposed the myths behind high street banks making the steps I need to secure my first property clear, simple and achievable. Ben kicked off viewings by showing me a great little property that had just come to market and not available online yet. So far so good! Looking forward to securing my first home with Douglas Allen.

TrustpilotI found the staff at the Chingford branch very helpful
I found the staff at the Chingford Mount branch to be very professional, personable and willing to help. Furthermore, as a HR Professional Practitioner and Strategic HRM Academic, it is evident to me that the staff at this branch are experienced and have sound knowledge of the property market. Additionally, Jess always makes an effort to keep me up to date with developments, and is open and honest, giving sound advice based on her objective insights. It is obvious from my interactions with her that she cares and is passionate about her job. Akin to her colleagues, Jess always greets me with a smile on her face, which is why I would recommend this branch of Douglas Allen to others. Moreover, the effort made by Jess and her colleagues, makes me feel confident that there is commitment to sell my property. Professor Doirean Wilson

I telephoned Douglas Allen Chingford, whilst on my way to view new property's in Wellingborough. The reason I contacted DA was because I had purchased in 2005 and was extremely happy with the service. That day an appointment was made for a valuation for James and Kaitlin to come round. They visited me last Friday and within less than a week I have had over 8 viewings without it even being online or pictures being taken. I have an offer already which is absolutely amazing. I feel confident with the services that DA are providing to me and more than highly recommend them to anyone thinking of purchasing a new home as they will defiantly ensure you will get across the finish line.

TrustpilotA highly proactive and organised team
I have been so impressed by the Douglas Allen team at Walthamstow during the purchase of our new home. Laura in particular has been really efficient and helpful at arranging access for us into the property and at returning my calls and emails. At every stage, calls and emails have been returned quickly, with helpful responses. Laura even called me after our offer was accepted to congratulate me, which has never happened before with any of our previous sales. I've really felt like I've had my hands held through this entire process, instead of it being something I've had to chase in order to get anything done. which has been my experience with other real estate agents in the past. In all, a highly proactive and organised team, which I highly recommend :-)
