GoogleCustomer service fantastic. Callam Clark was very personable and approachable with a great understanding of the market/sales/buying etc. Callam spent time getting to know myself, my house and my situation. He listened and advised well. I would definitely recommend Wards and the team as a prospective agent.

GoogleLewis has been a brilliant estate agent from start to finish. He showed us a property that we would not have normally viewed and we ended up with our dream home! He is professional , friendly and very easy to deal with. He dealt with all the questions we had efficiently and made the whole process stress free.

GoogleIt might depend on who you have - but for me I found my contact had a lot of charm and said the right thing, but you later discover it's lip service and they didn't follow through. My property was really badly marketed, and their priority seems to be to get everyone to sell via auction and put a lot of pressure on trying to get you to do this - even though this misses out on a lot of potential buyers.
I wished I'd looked around before I tried them - I wasted a lot of marketing time being with them, I should have just gone straight to another agency and got my property advertised elsewhere sooner.

GoogleBuying a property is one of the most stressful and longest experiences in life. I still don't understand how in 21st century modern UK purchases can take months or even years.
Average in other countries
USA: 69 days
Canada: 105 days
France: 105 days
Germany: 106 days
UAE: 107 days
Portugal: 122 days
Italy: 137 days
Australia: 137 days
Spain: 152 days
UK: 183 days
Saying that, our experience with Wards, made this process much more bearable.
Ellie, who has shown us the property was great, pleasant, helpful and reassuring after long day of viewings. She treated us more like friends than clients.
Thank you again and good luck!

GoogleWe had a wonderful experience with Wards when purchasing our first home! Ellie, who showed us round the property, was enthusiastic, professional and informative. She definitely sold the house to us! Throughout the process we had a large amount of contact with Callum who was able to answer any questions we had and also gave us a second viewing where he helped with measurements. All staff that we interacted with were friendly and helpful and made the first time buying process very smooth!

GoogleWards Estate Agent's 'Modern Auction': A Warning
Steer clear of Wards Estate Agent's "Modern Auction." They push a non-refundable 'reservation fee' (thousands of pounds) that you pay upfront.
I was lucky; I pulled out before paying it, but only after realising the huge risk. This fee is non-refundable, no matter what.
It felt like a complete waste of my time and a system designed to guarantee them money, regardless of the outcome for the buyer. Don't fall for it. It's a costly, time-wasting, and frankly, sneaky setup.

GoogleAvoid at all costs for sale/ purchase. We are 5 weeks in since the chain completed for a purchase. Wards have done absolutely nothing to progress the sale. They have issued incorrect memorandum of sale to both ours and the sellers solicitors, so neither side knew who they were dealing with. They never answer the phone and do not respond to emails. Only now, after multiple complaints and involving another estate agents dealing with the chain, have we got an updated memorandum of sale, so the two sets of solicitors know who they are dealing with. It seems to me that if you do not use their preferred solicitors, who they will try to hard sell to you, they will do nothing on the sales progression side. We are now taking this up with Arun Estateβs, their parent company.
