Selling with JDW Summertown

We highly recommend prospective sellers to consider JDW in Summertown. Our experience has been first class and the JDW service was highly professional right from the start - realistic estimate of house value, knowledge of the local market and how to maximise our sale price and managing our anxieties and expectations throughout the whole lengthy process to completion. The team were always professional, responsive and friendly and definitely worked hard to help us achieve our sale. They managed everything - EPC, flattering professional photographs included as part of the service, all the very many viewings, right through to chasing solicitors and other parties all along the chain to achieve completion. If you are considering selling your home, then do consider calling Daniel or Wai at JDW.

Claire Carter (based at the Weybridge branch) handled my purchase from start to finish and was exceedingly efficient. I was on a very tight timeline yet she saw no reason as to why we could not complete on time and she held true to her word. She chased deadlines when needs be and kept me informed immediately of any requests for information or any news.I never had to chase her for an answer to any question I had and I hugely appreciated her transparency throughout the process. I cannot recommend her and the agency enough.

I have been with John D Wood & Co Chiswick for the last year and have found Tannaz Bhoot (Lettings Manager) Katherine Garces and Brandon Lewis, very professional, informative and helpful. I would rate them 5 out of 5 stars. They have gone above and beyond to successfully let my three properties. I would personally recommend their services and trust their advice.

Incredibly rude staff

I rented a property that was part managed by John D Wood. The service was just awful - whenever we wanted something done with any urgency, they never responded. As soon as they wanted something, we'd receive really abrupt and quite rude emails demanding that we respond immediately. The tone of all staff was rude and often accusatory. I still have no idea what the landlord paid them for as they didn't manage the property as we dealt with all the maintenance issues.

Average performance

A recent new tenant who turned out to be very pleasant was found very quickly. The previous Tenancy Find was supposed to be for two tenants in the flat whereas in fact there were three and I was not happy about that.

Excellent Experience

John D Wood & Co. recently helped me to sell my property and I found them extremely professional and very helpful. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and when a storm took down a tree and demolished the hedge, they immediately got a chap along to sort it out.Their communication regarding feedback from potential buyers was superb. I never had to chase them for information and I would recommend them to anyone wishing to sell a property.

I have had consistent help and good advice from all those at the Wandsworth office. Shoeni is standout in her knowledge and attitude. Communication has been excellent over the many years I have used them as my letting agent.

Dishonourable

After we had our offer accepted Sally Behan in Weybridge called to tell us we had been gazumped. We increased our offer above asking price but were told they wouldn’t sell to us. Turns out when the seller found out our name they decided not to sell to us for ‘personal reasons’When pushed about ‘personal reasons’ she then said that there was actually a cash buyer who offered asking price. That property remained on the market for 5 weeks after that before it said under offer. Friends of mine were able to call and make viewings during this time. Disappointing that a company owned by Skipton Building Society would behave like this. The honourable thing to do would be stop acting for the seller but the commission was clearly more important.

Julian, James and Bethan supported us throughout our house sale and provided excellent service at all stages. They responds to queries quickly, chases up questions and issues and is thoroughly reliable. We particularly appreciated all help during a couple of buyers hiccups down the road. We were properly taken care of throughout the process.

Agent not trustworthy

I was told John D Wood (Primrose Hill) were a well respected local agency with whom I could sell my property, and they seem, on the surface, very professional. But I grew to dread calls from my allocated agent - a smooth talking, cocky young man - he seemed to constantly be on the side of the buyer, not mine. He told a couple of utter lies about offers coming in, he had a total lack of attention to detail, and eventually I ended up moving to a different agency where I had a much more pleasant experience. They may be on prime Primrose Hill high street, and have lovely properties for sale, but do not let that fool you! I just did not trust them. Go elsewhere.

Not valued as a buyer

We had a really stressful time as a buyer with JDW Esher. Details of the conditions of our offer we’re not passed onto vendor at all; when confronted with this when the transaction was at risk, it was glossed over / denied. We were also told a delayed completion was ‘impossible’. We ended up dealing direct with vendor, with a delayed completion, without issue. Got the feeling JDW were happy for us to lose out and simply switch to another buyer.

Terrible experience with the manager at John D Wood Southfields

Terrible experience with the manager at the Southfields branch. To call him arrogant would be an understatement!I have now sold and bought property through this branch. Dealing with the same agent each time. I would rather give my property away than ever use him again.If he asked a question he expected an answer immediately. sometimes calling twice in one day and following up with emails. Bullying tactics and bickering with me over any decision that didn't suit him. He has no idea how to treat customers and suspect he has no one supervising his behavior. He's a disgrace to any company and should work in a back room where he has no contact with customers.

High calibre agents

I'm the landlord of a family-owned flat in Chelsea, and have used JDW for our last two tenancies.Initially, it was clear that Ed had a better knowledge of our neighbourhood than the other agents we tried. Given JDW's reputation, their fees were more reasonable than we expected - yet surprisingly the asking price was higher. It was a no-brainer, and more surprisingly, they managed to secure this higher level of rent, rather than it being a pitch just to win the business. When it came time to find new tenants, they again exceeded our expectations by securing (in the pandemic) 12 months advance rent at nearly the same rate.I wouldn't use JDW for management purposes as they seemed slightly inefficient (perhaps as all agents are?) when they organised our EICR. Aside from this, Ed has always had time on the phone to discuss anything from particularities to the state of the market - and his experience shows. Furthermore, his lettings team are very friendly and on the ball.Highly recommended.
