GoogleWe worked with Stuart on buying our place in Cobham and he was absolutely brilliant from start to finish. His personal approach meant that when there were delays in the chain, he kept very calm, managed the seller very well and didn’t put any pressure on us even though the chain was at risk. Very understanding, happy to help out where he could and someone we would definitely use to sell our place in the future. Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

TrustpilotGreat experience with John D Wood
I couldn’t thank David at the Docklands branch enough for his outstanding support throughout our property rental journey. This has genuinely been the best experience we’ve ever had with an estate agent. He was always quick to respond, highly proactive, and incredibly effective at solving any issues that came up. It was clear he was completely on top of everything from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking for a smooth and stress-free rental experience!

TrustpilotAdvice on sale of flat
I went to the Docklands branch and spoke to Tushar about the sale of my property. A very constructive meeting - Tushar clearly has a lot of knowledge and experience, which really put me at ease, (thankfully, as I know from experience how stressful selling one’s home can be). I came away with a good idea of how I want to move forward and checklist of the things that need to be done. Definitely worth considering paying a visit to John D Wood + Co if you are thinking of selling up.

Worked with Warren in the Wimbledon office for our purchase of a house. He was excellent throughout, great communication, always clear and to the point. He stood out amongst the various other agents we had to deal with in sale and purchase and we would highly recommend his services. He also had excellent recommendations for periphery services (which we used for the building survey).

Thank you so much to Bradley Gilchrist at the Beckenham branch for his outstanding support during the process of renting out my property. He could not have been more helpful and patient. He is very knowledgeable, always quick to respond, highly proactive and made me feel very confident in what was potentially a stressful situation. I would not hesitate to recommend him.

TrustpilotJohnny Moore John D Wood Review
From the very start Daniel White and Jane Marshall made me feel, not just that I was in safe hands, but that I was dealing with two people who are extremely professional and experienced. I never felt pressured or rushed and their communication skills, support, and calm reassurance has made the whole process of selling my house a positive one.

We had a great experience selling our house through John D Wood, Southfields. The whole team was very helpful throughout the process, and Lewis was particularly professional, patient, and efficient in helping us overcome the inevitable hurdles that arise during a house sale. A big thank you to everyone involved.

TrustpilotOur sale of a property in Surbiton
Our sale of a property in Surbiton was complicated by the fact that everything had to be managed from overseas. We were fortunate in being directed to John D. Wood and Co at the Surbiton branch, where we have nothing but praise for the professionalism and efficiency of Luke Dwyer and Theo Harding. There were many issues which caused delays in the process of this sale, but at all times Luke was quick to be in touch and to advise on the way forward. Although we did not meet in person, we very much appreciated his reassuring manner as we negotiated both legal and practical setbacks.

TrustpilotProfessional and helpful
Molly and her team at the Parsons Green office were very professional, helpful and pleasant to work with. From advising on the appropriate asking price, arranging multiple viewings and securing couple of offers in the first two days of the property being on the market. They were knowledgeable and assisted in navigating a stressful process, dealing with unexpected matters that came up during the conveyancing, which I really appreciated. I would highly recommend the Parsons Green office for selling a property.

TrustpilotClaire Carter = everything you'd want in an agent
A huge token of respect and appreciation for Claire Carter, who acted on our behalf through an exceptionally complicated sale. Claire demonstrated deep subject matter expertise throughout and consistently went above and beyond, navigating a whole series of challenges, any one of which could easily have put the deal in jeopardy. She showed real patience, persistence, resilience, and tenacity, and most importantly inspired complete trust, all delivered with a genuine sense of humour when it was most needed.

TrustpilotSharp Decline in Service and Unauthorised Marketing, Disappointed with JD W Wood & Co Lettings
I let 2 properties through J D Wood & Co letting team in Belgravia, London SW1V since 2024. Over time the quality of services and customer care, accounting has plummeted. Rental statements are issued up to 7 days late; random fees are deducted, for example I got charged fees usually applied to overseas landlords although JDW have all my documents proving I am British, live in Britain etc. In addition although I negotiated clear cut service contract with JDW, they still apply randomly irregular fees opted out of. Then in 2024/2025 they restructured and their system went crazy with shifting the responsibility away from the local office I dealt with. I got so frustrated I terminated their agency. On the marketing side their letting team manager offered to visit and discuss potential letting of a property I have in Pimlico. Next thing I discovered that he went ahead and advertised the property to let without my approval. He even used other agents floor plans and pictures in the add! He was confronted after I was told about the advertisement by another local agent. JDW withdrew the advertisement and I have refused to deal with them since.

TrustpilotAVOID AT ALL COSTS
If I could give 0 stars I would.I've rented 10 years in London and I have honestly NEVER been treated so awfully or experienced such unprofessional conduct. I truly wish I'd read all these reviews before I accepted a property through them because how these people are even in business is beyond me. They are useless, lie on tap and speak down to you at every opportunity. The onboarding process itself was bad enough - they (Alexandra, Emily and Samantha) were rude throughout, moved my move in date multiple times causing me to lose money and ignored any of my queries when I tried to get clarity on what was going on. But the second they wanted an answer - or for me to pay something - they would harass me relentlessly (including when I was at a funeral, which they were well aware of at the time).The property, which for context was fairly new and modern, was then handed over to me uncleaned (i.e. black surfaces, gunk in the shower, tea stains all over the floor). In itself this was bad enough and a breach of contact on their side, but I then quickly learned the drains were completely blocked too. They left me for months unable to use my own shower as the tray was completely full by the time the water would even get warm, rendering it inaccessible (thankfully I had an alternative via the gym but no compensation or apology was given for months of no access). Throughout this, they would either ignore my emails or respond with stupid comments like 'oh I think we just need a new shower head' (?) every time I tried to chase.I eventually had a (dodgy) plumber sent round who clearly made the problem worse as despite fixing the initial 'block', the shower began leaking shortly after. A different (and this time decent) plumber managed to fix it but told them they would need to carry out follow on work as it was soaking underneath the floors and they would need taking up to dry out properly. Of course they ignored this and within weeks the flat was COVERED in furry black mould spanning across the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom.The smell was literally unbearable and they didn't bother actioning anything until I threatened to contact environmental health (not that they ever properly fixed it, just painted over it). I literally spent my own birthday sleeping freezing cold on the floor (so I could be next to the open window) just so that I could breathe outside air. I had to throw out so many of my clothes as they smelt so bad afterwards, and they had the audacity to send some btec handyman over after telling me they were sending specialist mould removal people. This guy literally wandered over to Tesco to buy some own brand mould removal spray and asked to use my cloths (which obviously then had to be binned) to try and clean it. Clearly that failed given the scale of the issue and after smearing it all over the place and ruining my cloths, he then helped himself to my hoover and stupidly tried to hoover up gunky chunks of mould causing more damage to my personal property.There's a thousand other stories I could tell including them refusing to tell me where the meters for the property were so that I could take readings (on move in day they told me their inventory people had taken them and they would be sent to me - this turned out to be a lie), nor would they give me a key to my own letterbox for over THREE months. Turns out the meters were inside a locked cupboard that I needed a code for but despite finally getting access thanks to a neighbour, I still couldn't even set up my own electric bill as I needed the letters inside the postbox to do so. I left as soon as the break clause kicked in because I was making myself ill with the stress of dealing with them. I also knew they were going to act up and try and scam me out of my security deposit when I left. The flat was given back to them in pristine condition, and a thousand times better than it was given to me in, so they had zero authority to try anything but I was one step ahead just in case. I also got in contact with the LL behind their back and let her know everything that was actually going on without her knowledge. Turns out she hated them too.Quite literally the worst company I've ever encountered.(Just want to add that Gina was the only person I encountered who was ever polite but sadly I didn't meet her until the point I was leaving!)

GoogleWe recently sold our house in Cobham with John D Wood and can thoroughly recommend their services. The complete sales process, from finding a buyer, negotiating the sale, conducting the various surveys, all the way through to exchanging contracts, was completely stress free for us due to the outstanding professional approach of their staff, along with their very personable and friendly demeanor. A big thank you to Miles and Susie for making it all so easy and at the end of the day securing the price we wanted for the property and completing everything so quickly.
