I have been using Wards property…
I have been using Wards property management services for some years now. I'm so impressed at the moment with Bethany who is my dedicated 'go-to' member of the team. She is always bright, polite, and helpful, without being 'over the top' gushy. She has a real can-do attitude to problems, I know that when she calls, it's usually going to cost me money, but she has a really good way of dealing with landlords and tenants.

Unable to sell our property
We had a terrible experience with Wards. We had signed with them in late June, when the property market was still strong. They knew we needed a quick sale, but still didn't actually start marketing it until our 14-day cooling off period was almost over. They had scheduled two open houses, the first didn't get any viewers and the second a week later only had two viewers. They had initially marketed our property higher than what I thought we could get for it, and as such our property didn't get any initial momentum and we had to reduce our price within two weeks of it going live. We had managed to source another buyer during this time, but Wards refused to release us from our contract, which meant we lost the opportunity to sell. After 14 weeks, we had averaged less than one viewing per week and we told Wards to either let us out of our contract early, or we were just going to delist it and wait for the contract to expire. They finally let us out of our contract early. But since then, the housing market has fallen and though we have found a seller since then, the price was significantly less than what we could have secured back in July. They were combative with us and in the end cost us a lot of money.

We were very pleased with the services we received Initially from Natalie selling our property and the follow up calls keeping us informed by Sally, although buying and selling during a pandemic is not recommended! It was good to see both ladies were as pleased and emotional as we were when we finally exchanged! Thankyou ladies!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

So far Zared and Rachel have been great!
So far Zared and Rachel have been very helpful and professional. I appreciated that they spent the time advising us as they did and our experience working with them so far has been smooth sailing. I would definitely recommend working with them both if you're a first-time buyer.
Thanks Lee for your review. Rachel and Zared are real superstars and I am glad to hear they have been helping you as much as they can. Its always a bit nerve racking but exciting buying your first home so getting the right support around you is important.I wish you well in your new homeKind regardsDavid HayesBranch Development Director

As a first time landlord
As a first time landlord, Tony at wards took the time to visit me at the property and explain the options to me when renting the properly out. He kept me informed about the potential viewings and attended to support with these when needed. He was quick to answer my calls and answer any questions asked. Would recommend.

Excellent Service
We have just bought a house through Wards of Kent and found their service really friendly, efficient, understanding and professional. Big Mark, Little Mark and Darren make a great team, communicate well and genuinely have everyone's interests at heart. They smoothed the way to a speedy purchase for which we are very grateful, and we would definitely recommend them.

Wards were most helpful throughout
Wards were most helpful throughout. Unfortunately, my seller let me down at the last minute but this was nothing to do with Wards. I am grateful to Dan and Shona for the effort they put in to try and rescue the transaction for me and also the care and concern that Shona showed after the deal collapsed
Thank you for leaving us your feedback! Best wishes,Wards of Kent

Returning customer
This is the 3rd mortgage Colin has arranged for me in the last 6yrs. I thought this time given the challenges with the banks during Covid 19 was going to be harder, we were successful in borrowing to buy our dream home. Thank you as usual and we will return when we next need to arrange a mortgage.

Excellent service
Excellent service by Wards who constantly updated me about potential buyers. I was particularly impressed with the assistance provided by Maria who acted as intermediary with the solicitors during the final sale process.
Hi Brian,Thank you for leaving a review! It's great to hear how excellent the service our agents have provided has been and how impressed you are with Maria in particular for how she acted with solicitors throughout the final stages.Best wishes,Wards.

Where to start.........DISAPOINTMENT
Where to start.........Communication, there is none, we have had our house on the market for over 10 weeks and we have not had one person step through the door, with this we have not had any phone calls or feedback, my daughter use to work for the company many years ago and advised me that her boss at the time insisted that vendors are contacted weekly with updates and to have a chat to see what can be done to help sell the property! Thats the biggest disappointment, as i appreciate a house sometimes does not sell the same day but not hearing from anyone is not great!! Then when we would call the branch we would be told nothing is wrong with our house. We had a open house arranged, again I heard nothing all week, so I called the branch to ask how many people to expect, to be greeted with a slightly confused person who did not know anything about it. Nick the branch manager and Katy have been very helpful and polite but I just really feel the service has massively dropped from what we was promised at the time of listing and that is not his fault if the branch staff aren't on the same page. I also called a number of times on different occasions to be put through to the call centre, who again was polite but couldn't help me with my enquries, so how can a branch sell the house when they aren't answering the phones? Just very very disappointed, I am not stupid, I know things do not happen always quickly but a little bit of communication and assertiveness wouldn't go a miss!

I would like to express my appreciation…
I would like to express my appreciation to Jessica Scott. She was an amazing support when I locked myself out of my property. Her kindness and understanding was excellent and I can not thank her enough. Her customer care/ services skills are to a very high standard. Please can she be recognised for this.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Best wishes,Wards of Kent

Hannah has been nothing but supportive in our journey with rentals. She’s been personal, without being overbearing. She’s a friendly person to communicate with and I’m so happy she could help us out.

All's well that ends well !
My sales progressor ,Jodi Wyncoll, was an absolute pleasure to deal with once I had a sale STC and my dealings came under her personnel attention. Her communication was faultless, she had her finger on the pulse at all times ,and she oozed client empathy which I am sure was in equal measure to both buyer and seller. A very professional and committed individual who stood out above all others at Wards. In all honesty my 4 stars are a result of 5 stars for Jodi and 3 stars for the process period up to Jodi taking control . It all ended well after some unexpected complications to deal from with from my side, and Jodi should be commended for her role in my experience.
