Exceptional! Alex Childs went way beyond what you would normally expect from an estate agent to ensure that our purchase of a Barbican flat went as smoothly as possible.

Very unprofessional approach. Maybe suitable for people living in London but if you are not then don't bother. They will miss your online viewing appointment even if it means sending a video over whatsapp.
Dear Sandhya, Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience with AW Childs. We apologize for any unprofessionalism you feel you may have encountered. We understand that the missed online viewing appointment may have caused frustration. It appears that you were unable to view the property before it was let due to the distance between your location and the property. We regret any inconvenience this may have caused. We appreciate your feedback and take it seriously. We will review our processes to ensure better communication and prevent similar incidents in the future. Thank you for your understanding. Kind regards, AW Childs Management Team

Avoid! They cost me £252 more than my last agents and they provided a sub-standard service. I had to repeatedly email them to arrange viewings, they did nothing special and used photocopied contracts that were hardly legible. When I moved in the flat had not even been dusted and the toilet showed signs of recent usage!
Thank you for taking your time to write a review. As a small business feedback is important to us and as our first non-positive response in 4 years of business we take it very seriously. Firstly, I would like to apologise for you feeling like the service you have received was sub-standard. Tenant's fees are available to view on our web site and you can consider these before deciding to visit a property with us. You enquired to view the property on Sunday the 22nd at 8.04 PM. We replied to your enquiry on Monday the 23rd at 10.18 AM. I’m sorry if you feel this response time was not adequate. Our contracts are emailed in PDF format prior to signature. Thank you for bringing this to my attention. We will review using digitally signed copies. Some of the properties we deal with are "let only" and managed by the landlords. I’m sorry to hear the property you moved into was “dusty”. Although this was the landlords responsibility we always encourage tenants to contact us after move in with feedback. If you had made us aware of this fact we would of course spoken to the landlord on your behalf.

Having just completed on a very frustrating sale of a flat , caused by inept Solicitors, I can honestly say this would not have taken place if not for the Professionalism and Competence of this excellent Company. I have no hesitation in giving this Company 5 stars and would thoroughly recommend them to anybody.
Hi Steve, thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are delighted that the sale went through and it was great working with you. Please keep in touch. Best wishes, Alex and the team.

What can I say? 10 out of 10. From viewing to move in took only one week. That's what I call a professional and efficient service. Thank you Mark Scoging. Rudi Voros

Brilliant service and experience- Alex was helpful from the get go, lining up a viewing within 24hrs and then throughout he buying process, extremely quick and responsive with all manner of queries, chasing etc. Highly recommended.

Utterly brilliant estate agent. Alex originally showed us round some apartments. We went back to Alex a couple of years later to sell an apartment. He showed great perseverance during these fun Brexit times, totally responsive, creative ideas and just a great person to work with. Cheers
It was great working with you Lynley and I'm delighted you kept in touch! We got there in the end and thank you for thinking us.

We could have not asked more from Alex. He was amazing at staying in touch, keeping us up to date on how the sale was going and being extremely flexible with timings for viewings. He came up with great ideas on things to do to help us sell the house and was just a very nice guy to work with. We highly recommend!

We had a sale and purchase go through Alex, and we were really pleased with how he handled both. Kept us in the loop with clear communication. Would highly recommend these guys.

Alex did a great job selling my flat for me. I had initially been very pessimistic (due to past experiences ) but he kept me updated all the way through. A great agency with personal service.
