TrustpilotLess than poor
Less than poor - do not use this agency to manage your property.Their charges are extortionate and they do nothing for their fee. My agent was off sick for weeks and no one took over the management of my property. The tenants were smoking cannabis and I was having to deal with the complaints.They also failed to inform the tenants that the property is for sale and so the tenancy was short term.I will be filing a formal complaint.Their sales dept at Crystal palace are not much better. If your property is not the easiest sale they quickly lose interest, fail to provide feedback and avoid your calls.If I could give a zero I would.

TrustpilotAbsolutely terrible in every way
Absolutely terrible in every way possible. They don’t know what they’re doing and haven’t sorted anything. We’re paying for the most expensive apartments in the city we live in and everything ( including water ) keeps going down, it’s been months and they haven’t done anything at all to sort it or fix anything. Going through documents with them was terrific, they can’t keep up with dead lines for contracts etc. They keep trying to charge us for things we don’t owe them. Absolutely horrific

TrustpilotExcellent, wonderful, terrific
We used the Dulwich Office and Paddi and Martin have been wonderful. We had more people look at the house in one week than we had had in the previous 2 years. They really made things happen and must have sprinkled a little magic dust on the place because it sold! The staff were really helpful at all times and all the information that we or the buyers needed was to hand. I cannot sing their praises highly enough. Please keep going this way guys!

TrustpilotBeen Trying To Get Someone To Help For 4 Months
Have been trying to get an issue resolved for 4 months now, every time we contact someone we're told it'll get passed on and someone will be in touch, never happens. We're calling at least once a week at this point, often more, and I don't know what to do anymore, nobody seems to want to help.Also had lots of issues trying to move in, was told we couldn't move in on the date our tenancy started because originally the keys from the last tenant hadn't arrived to the landlord in time, then we were told it was because the builders hadn't finished everything in the kitchen and it was unsafe (the only things that needed doing before we moved in was installing the fridge and the extractor fan, they had about a month to do this from putting down the deposit to moving in), and then we were told the landlord hadn't sent the keys yet, and they might be here in time, but they might not. We were told all of this this the day before our move in date, we'd already hired help and had furniture deliveries coming. In the end we got the real reason from someone else at the company, the last tenant had been unreachable since leaving and had never sent the keys (we suspected as much as they accidentally sent us an email meant for someone else demanding the keys back and furniture to be moved as someone was about to move in prior to this). We managed to move in on the day in the end as they finally agreed to change the locks. Before we found out the full story, we were continuously lied to and kept getting our date pushed back, but it doesn't sound like they were ever getting these keys and I don't know what would have happened if we hadn't kept questioning the explanations that were being given.

24/01 Morning..I haven't heard back from you on this but as I have limited information on your issues I am unable to make contact by any other method. Could you please contact me on the details below to discuss. Thanks. AndrewHi Em..I am sorry to hear this but glad you got into the property when you wanted to. Sounds like we were given the run-around by the old tenants and we did all we could to make sure that you moved in as planned, however our communication to you doesn't sound good. I am not sure where you are now though as your review indicates that you have moved in now but also that you are still trying to resolve issues.Could you please either call me on 020 8315 6922 or email me at andrew.roberts@acorngroup.co.uk with some more details so that I can investigate further.Thanks.Andrew Roberts - Customer Relations Manager

TrustpilotExperience Renting in Croydon
Experience Renting in Croydon Bromley Branch - Unhelpful, unresponsive, Often you will ask a few basic questions and they will respond answering one of of three questions, if they respond at all, often I am totally ignored. Getting information can be painful at times. -Once you part with your money expect to be forgotten. - Slow to act, you will be charged 150 pounds for a flat inspection prior to tenancy however when I moved in there were clear issues that should of been dealt with prior to tenancy start date, in my particular case messages written in Pen from the building fitters written on walls ( I had actually pointed out said pen marks during a viewing before the tenancy process even started), Stains to the paintwork. A friend has moved in this morning to the same building and she has lights that don't work to full capacity, they are burning at half or even quarter brightness, parts missing from her cooker etc, pretty basic stuff. Issues should be sorted prior to tenancy. - You will be expected to chase these issues yourself.- I've been renting for close to 10 years now, dealing with various estate agents during multiple different rentals and this is easily the least professional bunch.

Dear Max...I am very sorry to hear this. I can assure you that as and agent with over 30 years experience in the Property Management market, we do take all complaints like this seriously. I will investigate the issues you have raised and make sure that one of the Team come back to you today. Thanks. Andrew Roberts - Customer Relations ManagerHi Max..I have spoken to our PM team and believe that they have now been in touch. I can only apologise and although of course take responsibility for the wall not being dealt with we are reliant on the property owners contractors carrying out the works requested. This is now in hand. With regards to your friends tenancy, again this would be down to the property owners contractors to fix not Acorn, but if you can let me know the details I will investigate this in the same way I have with your issues. Thanks. Andrew

GoogleLauren Burkin is the best Estate Agent I've met. She's very understanding, helpful, she has a fantastic personality and a great smile to go with it. After my viewing she gave me a lift back to Bromley South Station, we had great conversation all the way. She's very personable and easy to talk to. She's done everything she said she was going to do.

TrustpilotJust avoid
Currently dealing with Jamie Perrin regarding a minor dispute over works done, paid, deducted etc - seems to find it utterly entertaining to send patronising, sarcastic and tedious emails and is enjoying being obnoxiously difficult over the phone. I'm not entirely sure what one gains from behaving or talking to tenants the way he does but he seriously needs some customer service training.Absolute nightmare to deal with when support is needed given current circumstances.

GoogleFriendly, Approachable, Patient and Professional. Lauren made finding somewhere to rent much easier, listened to what we wanted and showed us the ones that matched, not filling email with any property on their list like other agents. Preferred dropping in to check up, branch staff always polite and happy to help, personal touch rather than email only like so many others.

GoogleAs first time buyers, Paul Reid made the process of buying a house so smooth for us. He responded very quickly to any queries we had by phone and email and kindly enabled us to visit the property several times before completion. We would certainly recommend Paul from Langford Russell to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Bromley area.

DO NOT BELIEVE the fake reviews. Illegal gas safety checks, urgent repairs ignored, trying to extort monies for NO services rendered!!!
