We had an excellent experience with David Andrew when selling our flat recently. From start to finish everything went smoothly. Salma has been absolutely brilliant. She is professional, efficient and lovely to deal with. We couldn't be happier and would 100% recommend!

John and the team at David Andrew were excellent when helping us sell our house. Great local knowledge and service, and we accepted an offer a week after putting our house on the market.

Even though we were outbid on the property we had our eye on, Salma Salah was such a pleasure to communicate with, and the best, most fun, and coolest estate agent we've ever met!

We had a great experience finding our next home with Holly! After a several month disappointing flat search, working with David Andrew was such a refreshing experience - they are professional but also extremely personable, and everyone we interacted with was super responsive and felt like they genuinely cared. In the end they found us the flat of our dreams 😌 We would definitely recommend David Andrew out of all of the many estate agents we worked with in Highbury & Islington!! Thank you!!

My flatmate and I have had a great experience with Jamila from the Highbury Branch who has held all of our viewings and has been really patient with us through our process, which hasn’t been smooth at times! We’ve really appreciated her responsiveness and it’s always been great to do viewings with her - a great experience all round.

We put Philip Chuku in charge of letting our flat in Highbury. It was a hard one to benchmark as it is larger than the average flat in the area and renovated to a very high speck but other agents did not see the potential as Philip did. The flat rented on the first day of marketing and in line with Philip's guidance to very credible and nice tenants. The positive experience was further reinforced by a caring and alert property management team and we are delighted with having chosen David Andrew as partner.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Michael to buy a house, and his outstanding service made the entire process effortless. He understood my needs, communicated promptly, and went the extra mile to find the perfect home for me. I'm now happily settled, thanks to Michael's hard work and commitment. Highly recommend!

Had an excellent experience as first time buyers with David Andrew. We were working towards a tight deadline for completion and Sara Walton was excellent at liasing with the seller and our solicitor to ensure we met our deadline and the whole process was very smooth. She went above and beyond and we would highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to buy or sell.

While my girlfriend and I were looking for a house to rent, we contacted David Andrew to help with our search. Jamila at DA arranged our viewing and met us at the property. She was really helpful and friendly and answered every question we had about the flat. Since then, we've been in regular contact with Jamila to discuss the property, and she always responds in a helpful and timely manner. Thank you, Jamila!

A very high level of service from Maxime of David Andrew. In our search for a new flat to rent, I dealt with many estate agents and I can say Maxime was by far was the most professional. He gave a great level of customer service and showed genuine interest in our needs. Ultimately we did not rent with David Andrew, but they didn’t try to rush us like other companies and gave us many options of flats within the area we were looking for.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We had a great experience selling our flat with David Andrew Highbury. Our agent, Salma, was knowledgeable, responsive and helpful throughout. We always felt she genuinely understood our situation and was committed to driving to a positive outcome. I wouldn't hesitate to use David Andrew for any future requirements.

Everything started over two years ago when me, my partner and our friend where looking for a decent 2 bed flat in London when found one we all liked and setted a date for a viewing; the flat is perfect For us except one thing: on the add says clearly “TWO DOUBLE BEDROOMS”, but once we see the flat, the second room has only a SINGLE bed with an extramattess underneith. Right, the landlady says these exact words “oh no there will be a DOUBLE bed ready for you when you move in!” At this time there was me, my friend, the landlady and the letting agent Santa.August 2016 comes and we all move and with surprise we find in the second bedroom the same single. We called the agency right away and this was their response “we never said anything like that, you are lying.” Not to mention there was NO dining table and we had to buy it with our own money. And that’s when we should have run as far as possible from this bunch of cheap suits wearing so called letting agents. During our two year contract, every single time we had a problem it took MONTHS for someone to come and just see the problem and leave us with a “we will speak to the agency and come back to fix!” Yeah, that never happened.Give you a couple of examples: The toilet is separated:The one with the shower has no filter and no window, so obviously when taking a hot shower this will create mould, correct ? That is exactly what happened and all we had from the agency was : Open the windows of the bedrooms! Well of course, -10 outside in winter I’m going to keep my window open 24/7. We had mice in the apartment for MONTHS, they knew and NEVER sent anyone to help us, instead let us deal with it at our own expenses. The shower was leaking trough the ceiling down to the living room, all they did was send some random guy to put some silicon in the shower. Worthless to say, that was helpfull for 5 minutes.June 2018 we decide to leave due to personal reasons.So this is where it gets even worse: In mid July I send over ALL our final bills, attaching also the screen shots of our payments. On August 5th we leave the house and pay £425 for a deep cleaning with a company THEY reccomended. One week later we receive the final check out inventory: THE HOUSE IS NOT CLEANED PROPERLY, it says. Well, I asked for a good company that you would reccomend on purpose, because I knew that this would happen;in this check out inventory there are like 6-7 items missing, which, if whoever went to do the check out would have checked the cupboards would have found, rather than having a 26 email exchange with us and having to send someone else to find those items (which btw were cheap argos wall frames)In addition to this, we get accused of a wooden shelf missing in one of the rooms; THE SHELF WAS IN THE PICTURE THEY TOOK DURING FINAL CHECK OUT and they still tried to charge us for it And a phantom lamp missing that none of us has ever seen, £60?! A LAMP?! On top of it all, they charged us £120 for the check out fees which is apparently a ‘reasonable amount of money’ for someone to go take pictures and not even done properly. in all of this there is a radio silence of another week when at some point we decide to call them to find out the agent that takes care of us has had an accident and no one in 1 WEEK had the idea of picking up their job. At this point another week passes and finally someone else takes our case and Everything seems to finally be done when again, another week of radio silence due to the landlady who apparently is too busy to check her emails and answer. Finally the landlady emerges from her own ashes and guess what? She sents our depost back whit an extra £65 charge this time for a blind and a door step that have never been mentioned before (no mention of this phantom lamp anymore all pf a sudden). So obviously the landlady really needed those £65 as it is clear that the £1625 she was earning from us on top of her salary CLEARLY was not enough to get by! Overall after a battle of over 40 emails, took us over a month to get our deposit back. Not to mention the change of 5-6 different managers during our 2 year contract. I suggest you avoid this agency as they work as hard as possible to scum you, from start to finish working with the landlord to find a way to charge you for anything at the end of your tenancy and for prooving to be useless during the term of your tenancy. Oh also, you have to pay for a reference. London innit ?
