One of the greatest customer service that I have ever received! I am looking for properties in Essex and thankfully my path has crossed with Epping Branch. I can't be any more grateful with the excellent support that Ian White and Owen Masarella have given to me. They are truly experts on their topics and they simply want the best of their customers. Definitely it should be your go to agency!

Trustpilot21 Viewings And Not One Offer
Douglas Allen Walthamstow, made many promises but could not fulfill them. The branch booked in 21 viewings and not one offer was made. This was terrible. Also they get you stuck into a 20 week contract and you can not do anything about it. I have wasted a lot of time with them and have missed out on many new potential property’s.
Bilal · 8 June 2018
Agent replied · 22 October 2024
Dear BilalThank you for your feedback and we are sorry if you have been disappointed with the service received on this occasion.Whilst our staff will always do their best to generate viewings, they are unable to dictate whether these viewings will result in offers being submitted. We do however appreciate that it can be frustrating when it takes longer than expected to receive an offer, which is why our staff regularly review the marketing of each property, to ensure that we are attracting as much interest as possible. Unfortunately we have been unable to investigate your particular property in more detail, as we have been unable to locate your record. Should you wish to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact us on 01702 540802 and we would be delighted to assist you. Thank youKind regardsDouglas Allen

Ellie met my sister, who knows me well, and me a potential buyer outside semi detached for sale. The seller answered all out questions.When my sister and I had looked round streets saw Ellie having shown other people round. Gave her an offer to pass to relevant lady in office on Monday.

The Douglas Allen team were very helpful throughout the entire process. Khaleesha especially, who was on the ball come rain or shine. As expected, there were a few bumps along the road throughout this process and every time we hit one Khaleesha would act fast to resolve it and help us feel at ease. Bit of a legend.Would be happy to recommend.

I found Douglas Allen to be really helpful and particularly accommodating when arranging viewings and subsequently any further inspections of the property I offered on. Nothing was a problem, I was always able to get hold of them immediately on the telephone and they were very good in keeping me up to date with the progress of my purchase from start to finish.

GoogleRude and Unprofessional!!
Offered a price for a house which was rejected then a week later the house is up for the offer I originally put down.
They obviously pre judge clients. Really want to be selling with them??
When I spoke with the sales agent she transfers my call right through to the manager who just blags everything!

Dear Ms Ahmed
We can appreciate the disappointment of not having your offer accepted however this is not our decision to make and we are obliged to follow our sellers’ instructions. We understand that our branch manager has spoken to you and is in the best position to continue these discussions and negotiate between you and the seller.
Please rest assured that we are committed to helping both our sellers and buyers to move forward on their life’s journey and hope that we can still achieve this for you. If you would like to discuss your experience any further please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Relations department on 01702 540802.

Sold our house after another estate agent had failed to do so. After we accepted the offer, Natasha the sales progressor was really helpful, always returned our calls, and was able to get through to the conveyancers which I was seldom able to (I wouldn't recommend their conveyancing partners, choose a good local solicitor instead!).

GoogleWe have just bought a house through Douglas Allen, Chigwell, and we are incredibly impressed with the friendly, organised staff. They kept us informed throughout and helped to push through the completion when it got a bit stressful towards the end of the sale. Even though they were representing our sellers, it always felt as if they were on our side.
