We recently used Wards to sell our property in Canterbury and overall we were very impressed with the service we have received. Our sales advisor was Tom Dodd and I must say, Tom was very professional, approachable and he did fantastic job throughout. He kept us informed every step of the way and went above and beyond. Tom's expertise is credit to your company. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

We are so grateful we moved to Wards Canterbury after a disastrous 6 months with another agent. We had a very tricky relocation planned to the North of England, my husband worked away, I’m unwell and caring for a family with complex special needs, so I was terrified. I explained everything to Michael and Jade and they were terrific. Not only did they help with our sale, but they helped us with the purchase of the new house. When I first met Michael I said I needed him to help us find a safe landing up North, he more than delivered! Thank you, you guys were amazing.

Adam, Maria and the team were professional, friendly and trustworthy throughout what was a stressful time for myself and my brother. We lost our Mother in the pandemic and Wards helped us sell the property. This was amid a housing market crash and multiple setbacks. Having never been in a situation like this - it is hard to know if you're making the right choices: I am now 100‰ happy that we chose Wards. Thank you very much! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Abi and Hamid were fantastic. The property was seen and put on for rental very quickly. I had interest from tenants within a week. There were minor property issues that were resolved immediately. The boiler was an emergency and they got it fixed when I realised it didn't work..This was the day before tenant moved In. They also got me a good deal on landlord insurance. Impressed.

I Poorly Built Block Partition Discovered in New‑Build Home

I purchased this house new approximately 17.5 years ago. Recently, during a bathroom renovation, the drywall was removed, revealing a partition made of grey blocks. These blocks appear to be poorly secured to each other, as the partition moves slightly when touched. It is evident that the mortar used to join these blocks does not properly bind them together. This raises serious concerns about the structural reliability of the construction. I recommend potential buyers pay close attention to such partitions and conduct a thorough inspection to avoid future issues.

Great experience of Wards Estate agents in Canterbury, for both the new purchase and selling of our house. The whole process was relatively stress free and everyone in the branch was great. We mostly dealt with Tom, he is an asset to the branch and was probably the main reason we decided to sell with Wards. Great service!

Kate has been really helpful with my buying a property so far, friendly, quick to respond to queries and flexible in getting me viewings (even when I asked at short notice!). Maria has also kept me up to date with the buying process and what is left to do. It's really helped de-stress the buying process for me as a first time buyer!

As a property investor, I've worked with many estate agents over the years, and I must say that Wards has truly exceeded my expectations. Lila played a crucial role in facilitating communication between me and the buyers, ensuring the process was smooth and efficient. Having dealt with less reliable agents in the local area, I have no hesitation in highly recommending Wards, especially for the outstanding service provided by Lila Chivers.

Pleasant experience

Ashley Taylor came to value our property recently and we wanted to acknowledge his professionalism and courteous manner. His in-depth knowledge of selling properties and the current market really helped us to understand the process. We are also extremely impressed by the marketing report and calculated costs of moving provided. Whilst we are still thinking long and hard about a move, we would recommend Wards to anyone thinking of buying or selling.

Kind, helpful and professional staff. Ashley and Maria were particularly supportive and were there very step of the way. The property was part of my late Mother’s estate and was therefore a difficult and emotional matter to cope with. Ashley was extremely sympathetic for which I am eternally grateful.

To the left is the Claim of Wards of Kent that they replaced carpets in an entire flat before we moved in(re-interpreting it again is a further garnishing of the lies). To the right is the email they sent to confirm they only replaced lounge and hallway carpets before we moved in. At the center is their supporting evidence that they are replacing the carpets in the entire flat "again" after we moved out. I wonder who has English as first language that cannot differentiate between "both bedrooms" and "the entire flat" Wards washed the carpet in both bedrooms before we moved in but lied they replaced it, we didn't recover from the smell that we thought was from the wetness of the wash, we complained, they evicted us, finally replaced the carpet and claimed in on us! Wards go over the moon to protect the interest of Landlords, I love real estate and I hope to be the landlord of several homes someday, it will be a great delight to work with Wards. Who wouldn't favour the Landlords that bring in the big bucks over tenants that bring in peanuts? Lol
