GoogleHaving rented flats around London and also letting a property of my own over the years, I have dealt with many agents - and to be honest was not looking forward to doing so again during what is the busiest month of the year.
However, Henry at Daniel Cobb was easily the best agent we dealt with.
Whilst the other agents in the area struggled to respond to emails, return calls, or keep us up to date with new properties, Henry was extremely, efficient, professional and courteous. He listened to our needs and genuinely tried to find us somewhere that fit without being pushy.
We didn’t manage to find a flat in the area (mainly due to our tight time constraint), but we’ll likely be back again during a less busy period and give Henry more time to find us the right place.

GoogleI was assisted by Henry Okereafor of Daniel Cobb in Kennington when looking for a flat to rent in the Kennington area earlier this year. I found Henry to be calm and friendly and he understood the local property market well. He did not adopt hard-sell tactics. I was also helped by Patsy Yau, and Alice Fyfe of the Daniel Cobb Bermondsey office. In the end, I found a flat in Stockwell through a different firm of estate agents as the properties there were better suited to my budget. But if looking for a flat to rent in Kennington/Oval, I would recommend registering with Daniel Cobb.

Thank you for the recommendation. It is so nice to get such a positive endorsement. I hope things are working out well for you in Stockwell.

GoogleWe have been lucky enough to buy and sell homes with Johnny and Ian over a twelve year period. Daniel Cobb are truly head and shoulders above the competition. City-wide estate agents' offices have mushroomed across Kennington in recent years but this firm -
one of the oldest in this patch of London - genuinely knows and loves the local area. The team here understand and appreciate the unique architectural heritage, the interests of local residents and the kinds of communities that make it so special. They are unfailingly courteous and they adhere to a sense of ethics - something that cannot be said for many of their local competitors! That alone is worth its weight in gold.

GoogleIan and Jonathan were wonderful through the whole process. They truly know the area and provide a far superior service than their competitors.They are highly professional and friendly. Incredibly generous with their time , always smiling, never pushy and very experienced so when they reassure you during the process you know it’s sound advice.
I can not recommend them highly enough and as a suggestion to prospective buyers and sellers would avoid in any case non local agencies to Kennington who proved simply worthless in the local context.

GoogleWe have just bought a house through Ian Boardman at Daniel Cobb. We cannot recommend him enough.
Ian was absolutely central to the success of the transaction as the context of the house was complicated, with consents needed, etc which caused the process to drag out. Ian’s candid and honest advice helped build trust on all sides, yet he is also tactful such that he communicates effectively and keeps everyone on-board. He was pro-active with all parties throughout without ever being pushy, and was incredibly effective as intermediary, giving us a lot of faith in the process and obviously achieving the same with the vendors.
We found that Ian’s insights about the local market were very valuable and well-informed, in good part because Daniel Cobb has such a large share of the local market. Ian is also very pleasant and easy to work with, and was always willing to spend time: I dare not recall how many times we asked him to open the house for us, surveyors, architects, etc. He was always available to do so, and was helpful and friendly every time.

GoogleGreat Estate Agents, who offer a fantastic, professional service. Never felt pushed, as is common with more rogue agents, and was kept up to date with everything that came onto their books before we found the right property. James and Ian were both brilliant, always being at the end of a phone, digging out documents when we needed them and putting up with mothers that get lost on the way to viewings.

One of Cobbs' strengths is their local focus and knowledge. Chris' advice was excellent and his good humour seemed unfailing which is quite a feat in this business! He, Henry and Marion were all so helpful and I'd definitely recommend them. Fees are pretty reasonable too!

GoogleDaniel Cobb did an excellent job of selling our flat, for a sold price that exceeded the asking price recommended by a couple of their competitors.
