GoogleOver the last several years I have rented properties out through Russell Collins and have also recently sold an Ealing property which I lived in before moving to Cornwall. I have been delighted with the help that Ray has provided during my recent sale. He remained in touch constantly, helped to alleviate any small problems along the way often with a great sense of humour, and left me in no doubt that I made the correct decision to place my property in his hands. I can't recommend them highly enough.

GoogleWe bought our family home through Russell Collins. Ray and Leo were great to work with; straightforward, honest and very responsive, all the attributes you need when moving home. They made the process seamless and stress free. I would happily use their services again in the future.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

GoogleI cannot recommend Russell Collins highly enough. We asked 3 different agents to value our house. Ray gave an honest view of the market and told us that the house would sell at the price he was quoting, which it quickly did. We loved that he was passionate about our house. Throughout the process to exchange he has been totally dependable, and has gone above and beyond.

GoogleHave just sold our house through Russell Collins and couldn't recommend highly enough. Their understanding of the local market ensured an honest and realistic valuation..so we didn't have to waste time with totally unrealistic pricing (been there before with other estate agents and lost a few months as a result). Potential buyers were absolutely on the mark, to the extent we had two offers two days after putting on the market. Ray really did go above and beyond, reassured and guided throughout, liaised with the solicitors when information was slow to percolate through, and thoroughly deserves, what we thought to be, a very reasonable agent's fee.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleWe bought our house with Russell Collins in 2001, and have just sold it through them 20 years later. We have also observed their reputation grow via multiple neighbours using, and praising, their services over the years. Without doubt, they are a class above any other agent we have ever dealt with, having an unrivalled knowledge of the South Ealing area in particular. Ray Upcraft in particular has a unique level of integrity, honesty and experience that has clearly rubbed off on the rest of the team too. We have seen how he always gives an honest and (what usually proves to be) accurate valuation, compared to rival agents who over inflate just to get the business (and then end up reducing the price). We cannot recommend Russell Collins highly enough and will confidently use them in the future without hesitation.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleWe strongly recommend Russell Collins as a highly professional and knowledgeable estate agent. We purchased a flat through them a few years ago, which they subsequently let and managed on our behalf when we lived abroad. We’ve just been through the sales process with them and they were trustworthy, reliable, kept us informed and provided great support every step of the way. Everyone we’ve dealt with has been a pleasure to work with.

GoogleRussell Collins is very helpful from day one on viewing to last day of end-of-tenancy arrangement. Everything goes smoothly, timely and efficiently. So far they are the best company I've dealt with. Their instructions are clear and easy to follow. I can't thank enough to Paula and Dean!

GoogleWe have dealt with Russell Collins 3 times over the past 5 or so years and I cannot recommend them enough. We rented a flat from them, bought our first flat through them and have now sold our flat through them too. The service is incredible - any query we had was dealt with quickly (any issues with the rented flat were also dealt with very quickly) and without sounding like a cliche they are not the "typical" estate agents. They care a lot that you are satisfied and understand very quickly what you want and how to help get you there but are also honest in terms of expectations.
Selling or buying is stressful but I have constantly felt reassured by Ray and always felt we were in safe hands - the whole team have been amazing!
The service to date has been truly faultless and if we come to sell our next place, we would do it through them! Equally if we ever needed to rent anywhere or rent our place we would only do it through them.
