Alan Francis has been fab so far. Nicky was lovely and got us into a property really quickly and was great at explaining everything. Nicky was very transparent when we initially said we wanted the property as other viewings were booked. We submitted our application whilst the other viewings took place and as promised, Nicky let us know that evening whether our application was successful or not. Was great to hear back so quickly given we needed to get in a property very quickly and we’re starting to get worried! The letting process was made as simple as possible - signing paperwork at the property on the day of getting the keys was by far easier than printing and scanning back! Thanks Nicky.

My experience of dealing with Alan Francis Ltd has been wholly positive. I have found the staff to be friendly, professional, helpful and proactive. Vincent, Ben and Casey have been a pleasure to deal with and any time I have called and they have not been available, whoever answers the phone has been equally as professional and helpful. I have over the past 6 months dealt with a number of estate agents and I can confirm that this service is not the norm! I will only be using Alan Francis Ltd going forward.

I asked for information from Samantha and was embarrased as I needed it urgently. She replied alost instantly. Now that is what I call service. And it is not the first time I have had good results from Alan Francis and Co. Thank you Irene Foster

Major issue with the truly awful state of the tenants back garden (and also the shared side path) in a rental property next to my home. Communication from Alan Francis Ltd was at first non-existent and when prompted for a reply....ultimately disinterested and dismissive. States they have spoken to the landlord who is allegedly happy with this to continue, although doubt the latter has actually seen it.

Highly recommend Alan Francis Estate Agents. We have recently sold our property through them and couldn’t have wished for a better service. From the first contact with Josh who did our valuation they have been so professional, with nothing being too much trouble. Charlie’s communication, updates and advice have been exceptional. Josh has a fantastic understand of the property market and was always on hand for extra bits of advice, even with our onwards purchase. Thanks Both.

Using Alan Francis was one of the best decisions I made while selling my house. The team are amazing and a special mention to Josh, Brad and Joe who I interacted with. Their communication was incredible always keeping me up to date where the process was at, allowing us to have full trust in them and making the process as efficient as possible. My partner and I are so grateful, and couldn’t reccomend them more.

I have recently rented a property through Alan Francis the negotiatior Ben Stock was amazing he answered all our questions from the start and made sure we got the house we were looking for. Moving from out of the area i was worried about which areas would be suitable for me and my family but Ben put my mind at ease. I dealt with a number of Alan Francis staff throughout the process and i cant recommend this Agency highly enough. Thanks again.PositiveQuality, Professionalism

We've rented the same property since 2004, in 2010 our landlord engaged Alan Francis as letting agent. Since then the service we have received from them has been second to none. Recently there were problems with the boiler in the property, it had packed up completely. Lauren has been excellent in getting this sorted, even sorting out British Gas! Lauren is a great ambassador for Alan Francis and is fully deserving of all the praise I can give. 👍👍 Update: I'd like to add that complications arose during the boiler installation. Again Lauren Gee was able to get things sorted really quickly. High five to Lauren 🖐🖐

Ben Stock has been amazing with making our rental process painless. We were shown 3 properties according to what we were looking for, we chose one and a week later we are now moving in. Super happy and super greatful. Please contact Ben for all your property needs. 5 star for these guys! OK so a Year and a bit later after my previous review on Alan Francis Ltd Staff I have more to say. We had a strange sound and smell coming from our Boiler. We not familiar with boilers as we dont use them where we are from. Our direct contact at AF is Lauren Gee, i emailed her casually about the Boiler and soon after got a call. Lauren was extremely concerned there was a smell and informed this is dangerous for us. Lauren immediately sent out a Team to assess the problem. With in a few days we had a new Boiler installed, its so quiet and free of any harmful gasses. So happy! Thanks to Lauren Gee for sorting this for us so fast!

Vincent has been brilliant and managed to turnaround a situation with a rental, cannot thank you enough. My experience a few weeks back with another agent was very poor where as with Vincent at Alan Francis I have been kept informed every step of the way. Very professional from start to finish. Would highly recommend, once again thank you Vincent.

I want to specifically say a very big thank you to Francesca Harding for coming to my rescue when I was almost giving up. She’s so sweet and patent and her customer service is amazing. Her communication is excellent. Alan Francis, please keep your standards high as you have always been doing, will continue to recommend you to my friends and family.

Everything went better than expected when moving in and out of my rented property. Very smooth and on schedule. Holly Wade, especially was very polite, professional and always very helpful with any concerns I had. She took it upon herself to arrange for my post to be collected when I had an important concern, which she did not entirely have to do. Fantastic customer service!!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Came to Alan Francis from a very bad experience with a previous agent and Ben and Jack were great and sorted things quickly, the way it should be done, in a very professional way. They found a solid good tenant for me too, meeting all my requirements very quickly. They know what they are doing and it is all about which agency you choose, and I am happy I have chosen Alan Francis to get my property rented.

I dealt with Nicky, Shani and the rest of the AF team on the lettings side, who did a fantastic job of turning around a property for a new tenant in super quick time. Communication was very good and I was kept abreast of timescales and costs to carry out all the work involved to meet deadlines.

Recently sold properties in Newport Pagnell and shenley Brook End with Alan Francis. The easiest 5 stars I’ve ever rated someone. Having seen how Alan francis operates from a buyer’s point of view , this is an agent you want selling your house. Right from our first meeting with Alan Francis i knew they were the agent for me. Josh and Jaydon were exceptional - so talented, helpful, knowledgeable. They looked after my sale and kept me informed of progress throughout the whole process. The sale went smoothly and I can genuinely say that I couldn’t be happier with the services received. Any prospective buyer will certainly be well looked after!/ if /when I come to sell again, Alan Francis estate agents will definitely be the first agent I call. Michael Cat

Very helpful with helping us find a rental when we relocated back to the UK. Their professionalism naturally encouraged us to go to them when we we expatriating again after only 2 years and, for the past couple of years they have managed our property pro-actively and with a great attitude and friendliness. They have access to efficient and reasonably priced Contractors and it has been a smooth process for us. We can highly recommend Lauren and Amy. Great team!

We have used Alan Francis before and found them very friendly and very professional.Josh Kennedy promptly came out to our newly refurbished studio and we negotiated the asking price. Within hours we had viewings and in just a few days Josh had Negotiated a sale at the full asking price, Josh and the team at Alan Francis worked hard for us to achieve our sale among what seemed a mirriad of offers and counter offers. It's been a real pleasure working with Josh He's also a real fun guy we've enjoyed some laughs.

Fantastic experience with Alan Francis. Daniel Vincent (Lettings Manager) and Craig Cambridge (Sales Manager) visited my home to give me an idea of its value for both selling and if I were to let the property out. Both were insightful, incredibly helpful and never pushy. This made my choice a simple one as I was filled with the confidence they were the right people for the job. From day one Craig and his team worked hard to find the right buyer, always keeping my fully up to date with progress. Their work paid off when they found a buyer wanting to move quickly, managing to complete the sale within 8 weeks. Because of the quick turn around Daniel and his team then helped me with a rental property, a great place where I felt at home in straight away. If there was ever a problem, it always felt like the team were there to solve it. I can’t thank the guys at Alan Francis enough. They delivered on what they promised and more. With great local knowledge and brilliant dedication, why would anyone go elsewhere? Honestly, they turned what I have heard described as one of the ‘most stressful things you can ever do’ into a pain free experience! Thank You!!

I rented a flat through Alan Francis last April, 22nd, 2016. They went through the inspection before me renting it, or so they say. The washing machine included in the inventory was not plugged to power mains, drains or water pipe. It was dead. The hob had one fire that didn't work. 4 windows didn't close. Several bulbs were not working. Elevator was not working. Stairs and common areas were filthy. It took them 4 months to fix the windows. They come second in the never-ever-again-rent-with-them list.

Víctor · 19 June 2017

Agent replied · 17 June 2024

Further to Mr Garcia's comments, the maintenance issues were discussed at the time with our branch manager at which point a new hob and new washing machine were supplied by the landlord. The issues regarding the windows, elevator and building cleanliness are the responsibility of the Block Management Company. Unfortunately, the management company were not forthcoming in addressing these issues and therefore the landlord agreed to fix the windows at his own expense, even though it was not his responsibility. We have constantly chased the management company to fix the elevator and improve the cleanliness of the communal areas, as this is a block of 20 flats and obviously communal & building maintenance is shared amongst them all. Whilst we appreciate that Mr Garcia found this unacceptable, both ourselves and the landlord have done everything within our power to ensure Mr Garcia had a pleasant tenancy.

I used Alan Francis few times for all range of their services in the past 2.5 years. Last week I sold my flat with them and I want especially to thank Dominic Myers. He was not only professional but went out of the way to help me with my much needed fast track sale chasing the solicitors, talking to the buyer, calling me out of the office hours updating me on the progress, organising last minute property maintenance etc. We managed to complete the sale within 5 weeks. Jack Conway was also good. Had positive experience with their letting department as well. The letting agent Nicky Maynard was very kind, helpful and efficient. I would use AF in the future as long as they manage to keep their best people. P.S. Over the past 10 years as a landlord I worked with few agencies including high street names and many of them, unfortunately are truly dreadful so AF was the pleasant relief and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them.
