TrustpilotWards would be very last choice
Wards sent search and other documents to wrong address, then ignored phone calls and emails asking what was happening. Result months of utter confusion until they they realized their mistake (document finally sent to solicitor). Result our purchase has taken almost six months. We are still today having problems establishing completion date and fixing collection of keys. Wards would be very last choice

TrustpilotDo not use the fully managed property service unless you like to be ignored
Do not use the fully managed property management service unless you want emails unanswered, phone calls not returned, requests for maintenance and repairs to be ignored. Be prepared to be constantly chasing for anything that needs to be done. Complaints via the complaints department are referred back to the person you are complaining for action so gets you nowhere. I'm still waiting for repairs requested over 6 months ago, and am lucky if I get a response yo an email within 3 weeks! And they have the nerve to charge you for this

Agent replied Β· 11 June 2024
Dear Lynne Thank you for your feedback and we are very sorry that you feel this way. We endeavour to deal with any maintenance issues received promptly however delays are sometimes inevitable when multiple parties have to be contacted first. We would not however expect you to wait three weeks for an answer to an email and apologise for any frustration caused. We would like to investigate the specific issues that you have raised in more detail and would therefore ask you to contact us on 01702 540802 so that we may discuss the matter further. Thank you. Kind regardsCustomer Relations

TrustpilotWards of Walderslade
From start to finish the service from Wards has been great. Kenny George and his sales team (including Adam Copas) were friendly, helpful and professional and got our house sold in record time. Kim Batchelor did a great job in managing the process of our sale and purchase - continually moving things forward, making things happen and keeping us up to date. We probably won't move again - but if we did we'd definitely use Wards

Once again Laura and Alex at Wards Lettings Gillingham ensured that the letting process was smooth from start to finish.They have a wealth of knowledge between them and are always at the end of the phone to answer any concerns. Their knowledge of the local market is very reassuring - I will continue to use them for future Lettings and wouldnβt hesitate to recommend them. A seamless experience again Laura & Alex! Thank you!

TrustpilotReview of ward and partners Ramsgate branch
Viewing: Kathy, the sales manager seemed to know what we would, and wouldn't consider as a buy to let flat, and read us very well. She agreed with my partner on the viability of a flat I had rejected without a viewing.Purchase: Karen Mainwaring, the sale progressor, did exactly that. We had issues with the vendor and their solicitor slowing things down. I did point out that she seemed to be doing much of the solicitors work for them!.This is a branch where all of the staff are clearly motivated, well led & have a 'can do' attitude. As a result of all of my dealings with this branch I will be using their letting svcs to manage the property for us because I think they will continue to represent and work toward my best interests

TrustpilotTotally useless
Imagine waiting four days and counting to view a property having enquired as soon as it was up for rent, being told by a woman on the phone that no one else would beat me to it because of how early I was interested, to then realising it has been rented to someone else without ever getting back to me. Total liars and still to this day I am waiting for a reply.
William Β· 25 August 2020
Agent replied Β· 11 June 2024
Dear WilliamThank you for providing us with your feedback and we are very sorry to learn that you were dissatisfied with the service that you received from Wards. We understand that a member of Wards' staff tried to telephone you to discuss the property that you were interested in however their call went through to your voicemail. In the meantime the property received significant interest and a tenancy was agreed very quickly. We can appreciate the disappointment that you must have felt however we have to react to the interest that we generate, which could not have been foreseen at the time of your initial enquiry.If we can assist you with your future property search, please do not hesitate to contact the branch and should you wish to discuss your review in more detail, our Customer Relations department would be happy to liaise with you further. They can be contacted on 01702 540802 or customer.relations@arunestates.co.uk.Kind regardsWards

TrustpilotVery annoying
We are looking to buy a house in Ashford and saw one for sale through Wards. Called them up and arranged a viewing. They took my details inclusive of my mobile number (I asked them not to use it in marketing) and we proceed to view the property. The problem was that I've had at least nine unsolicited calls from Wards since. Three within an hour of the original call trying to sell me on a scheme of part buy. Trying to get me to put my house on the market with them etc etc. Of all the agents we contacted in Ashford, Wards were the only ones to act in this way.I now dread seeing a house we like with a Wards board outside.

TrustpilotDisappointing in the end
Wards were easy to deal with when we chose them as agents, but overall I felt did not have our interests at heart. Our house didnβt achieve a full asking price at a time when other houses (ones we looked at which were less attractive) were achieving over and above. Towards the sale, it also felt that they were not fighting in our corner, but for others in the chain.
