A great service

The experience was as stress-free as it could have been. The online video tour was absolutely beautiful; Brendan and Jack were very easy to contact. They lined up a small selection of buyers who were chain-free, and we accepted a brilliant offer within 24 hours. We’re very happy with the service.

Not trustworthy, commission focused not client

After using their service unsuccessfully I was contacted by a seller of a property I had previously fell in love with but had been told by agent William, that it had been sold separate from Acorn. The seller informed me the property was not sold but in fact very much available and that he had been informed by William that I did not want the property and had ignored calls and emails. William did this because he was pushing the seller to accept an offer 20 grand under the asking price which came from another Acorn client. The seller discovered the deceit when a man knocked on his door and informed him that Acorn was refusing him a viewing to the property. I was ignored by William when I sent a confronting email, and the complaints staff member sent a very feeble sorry but not sorry because you should have put an offer in regardless email. I would advise Acorn to resolve this issue with the seller who has lost out on 20 grand and time waiting for another buyer while I have already exchanged elsewhere. I would also advise to keep better tabs on your staff to prevent acts of deceit for the gain of additional commission.

I'd give 0 if I could.

Viewing was arranged but I got a call minutes before to ask to reschedule for the next day. Fast forward to next day: no answer and agent just happened to not be around so said they'd get him to call back... no call and now closed. Waste of two days.

Dammy Ajanaku was a great Estate Agent!

Dammy Ajanaku, from Acorn Estate Agents, managed our purchase process very smoothly. He answered our questions quickly and was keen and flexible to show the property a few times. Thanks Dammy!

They are so incompetent

They are so incompetent. Sending reference emails to the wrong addresses. Including the wrong tenants on agreements. We had to follow for different procedures for four different tenants to get references because they just couldn't figure it out. They even put the wrong tenants on our rental agreements after being asked TWICE to remove them. Embarrassingly poor service.

Professional

We bought our house through the Sidcup branch of Acorn in October 2020. We dealt with Kelly and we were really impressed at how approachable she was and hugely appreciated the regular updates on our purchase. The purchase went smoothly and Acorn were a pleasure to deal with throughout.

Unprofessional

I just wanted to let people know that Acorn in blackfen are very unprofessional!! Based on my personal experience with them. What they say and do are two different things. I told them not to value my property because it was going through court that they wasn't picked from the list which the solicitors and judge had arranged. I told two different people the manager and a lady that work there the same thing. They said not a problem we don't want to waste our time on a free valuation. We will cancel the appointment that my ex husband had made bearing in mind I live in this house.. What happens they did a valuation from the outside of my house even though they was told not to and said to me that they wont and its been cancelled.. please do not trust them they are liers.. because of their wrong choices they made. Me and my daughter may cost us losing our home.. very unprofessional

Fab viewing

We viewed a property with a young man called Kieran, all I can say is WOW. He was absolutely amazing, what a lovely young lad. Knew everything about the property, didn’t hesitate on any questions we had to ask, he was by far the best estate agent we viewed a property with and we viewed alot! Thanks so much again Kieran, you are a total gem to acorn estate agents.

Acorn in Welling were very friendly

Acorn in Welling were very friendly, polite and efficient throughout the sale of my property. Jake, Katlyn and Matt were there to answer questions and deal with any problems that occurred and make sure everything ran smoothly. Very happy with the whole transaction. Thank you.

Great staff.

I have to say that the staff at Acorn (especially Tanya Weise) are incredibly skilled at liasing with tenants. It can often be a hard and thankless position but Tanya fulfills her brief with enormous patience and sensitivity.

Amazing people and excellent service

We bought our flat through Acorn, and despite all the issues we experienced with our solicitors, Acorn were immensely supportive and responsive the whole time. Samantha Latham, our agent, in particular, was extremely supportive and kind to us and greatly helped us all along the way. She would sit on the phone for hours to get an update from the parties involved and give us the much needed information on the progress of our case, of which we were otherwise deprived. Acron deserve the full five star I have given them and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend their great service!

Highly recommended, Jonathan was great.

Jonathan at Acorn couldn’t have been more helpful. A genuinely nice guy who was with us from the first viewings of our property Sale until contract exchange. He constantly updated us and helped us get answers when the solicitors were not so forthcoming.We had our property up for sale with another estate agent at the same time and amount of interest and viewings through acorn compared to the other agent was amazing.We were under offer within 2 weeks of Being up for sale.They really know they’re business and I would highly recommend Glen, John and the team.Thanks All. ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Absolute disgrace

Absolute disgrace. After getting pulled pillar to post with loads of different properties and then not actually getting one. The last one topped it for me and my partner after signing a tenancy agreement for one property the landlord changed his mind and then the holding fee got moved onto another property. We then signed another agreement and got the house. Even got a moving date. So we made arrangements with a removal company and both cancelled the tenancy agreements on the properties we were both in. The landlord had used two letting agency’s and dropped us too so our holding fee meant nothing. Acorn were prepared for us to be homeless. They still owe the holding fee and it’s been a month. What if we needed that for a holding fee on another property? Disgraceful

Very poor experience with one member of the team - Joy Davis

Firstly i would like to start with positives, the team in Bexleyheath branch have been nothing but helpful to get me across the line following issues with a specific member of staff. Without the help of the guys at the branch this would never have made it across the line. Then onto the negatives - Joy Davis. The worst customer service I've ever received. So much so that this is the first time I have ever left a review against a company. Rude, incompetent and most of the time incorrect - and that's just when she decides to answer (most of the time will essentially just ignore you). It took 8 weeks to receive a deposit back from a rental property acorn managed, beginning with her sending over an incorrect review of the property, when asked to rectify this she simply told me to sort it with the tenant as she was either too incompetent or lacked any form of work ethic to complete this herself. Eventually she rectified this issue after me explaining to her that it is in fact her job. She then sent me the incorrect amount, upon chasing this with over 15 emails across a month I had no choice but to threaten legal action, which then led to receiving the correct amount of funds. The guys at bexleyheath branch had informed me she had not actually processed the payment at all, which i believe was to just waste my time further as she took a dislike to me pretty early on. So in conclusion - bexleyheath branch - awesome team who will help at any point. Joy Davis - terrible.

I have to say that the experience we had with Acorn Estate Agents in Swanley was absolutely one of the best experiences with any estate agents I have experienced. Mark Sugarman, the Manager, went above and beyond to assist us in finding a rental property at a suitable price and in a suitable area to cater for all our needs. I have nothing but good woods to say for the whole team.We have lived at the property for almost a year now and I have had no complaints with Acorns. We will definitely use them again when the time comes.

Brilliant people providing excellent service

Professional, efficient and friendly service from all the staff I had contacts with. Davide took the time to explain everything on my first visit at the Acorn office in Kennington and also answered all my questions when he visited and took amazing pictures of my flat. Damian dealt with the viewings and keep it me informed all the time about offers and how things were progressing. I did not meet Lorrell in person but she replied to emails in seconds and explained every requirements and was always available over the phone. They were all brilliant and made my first experience letting out my flat stress free. Acorn definitely have got the right people to provide an excellent service and I will not hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know.
