Professional and Meticulous

My husband and I would like to thank Mauricio for the immense help towards finding our flat. He and Sian did a meticulous job through the renting process. I appreciate the level of professionalism and dedication put towards their job. I would highly recommend these agents in case of finding a perfect home. Thanks to the entire team for performing a wonderful job.

I have mixed feelings about my…

I have mixed feelings about my experience with acorn because it's not nice having to judge the company due to one member of staff behaviour. Fair enough a ccj was found on my file but as soon as the ccj came up the staff responsible for my case became uninterested, stopped returning and picking my calls. I had to track him down through the company phone. He basically did not care. Bare in mind my deposit money is still with the company. After a few days of receiving completely air from the agent, I gave up and wanted and requested for my money back. There was no need to get rude to them because im sure thats what they expected but the level of professionalism was -0! My partner and myself was extremely appalled. I had to leave and find another lettings agency elsewhere.

Property sold!

I asked 3 different estate agents to value my property and Acorn, Swanley returned the best, most realistic valuation with very comparable rate of commission. They produced an impressive, high standard brochure for my property. Within one week I had approximately 6 positive viewings and within 3 weeks I accepted an offer and have just exchanged on the sale.I’d like to thank all the team at Acorn for their due diligence, dedication and professionalism throughout, in particular Hayley Gardner-Bryant, Kieron Russell and Mark Sugarman, who showed great team work throughout.I highly recommend Acorn Estate agent, if your considering to sell your property.Margaret, Swanley

Izabela Wrobel is a star

I have been dealing with Acorn for around a year i can not say i have had the best experience and if i knew it was going to be anything how it is i would not of used them but since Izabela Wrobel started dealing with me and my apartment my thoughts of acorn have dramatically changed. Izabela Wrobel sticks to her word and does her job very well but still treats people like they are humans. Izabela has been a massive help. I honestly believe if Acorn worked in the way Izabela does that would not have many problems and have tenants that love living where they do.

Bad is too much rating for Acorn

Bad is too much rating for Acorn. They get my advance amount and they didn't make the house ready to move in for the promised date. Instead tell house is not ready they are blame insufficient document for referencing for one of the person moving in. In the final mail they are asking give us few more days to make the house ready. No proper response. I lost the amount paid for property movers.If you believe these guys, they will make you to stand in the streets with your household things.

Thank you

Jamie at Welling was extremely helpful and was always updating us on the sale of our family home whenever there was a change or any progress made, however small. This contact was all important especially when the selling and buying of a home can be so stressful. The contact with our seller’s estate agent was basically an automated email every few weeks - No comparison! Jamie made the whole experience a lot less stressful and I would have no hesitation in recommending Acorn in the future. The personal touch made all the difference. Thank you Jamie

Taylor Moutarde Top Class Estate Agent

Acorn was one of three estate agents who worked on the sale of my house. Taylor Moutarde identified the final price it sold for in his original estimate, where others had stated more but did not deliver. Taylor then went more than the extra mile in securing a sale and then getting it through when the buyer's solicitor was repeatedly failing to respond or communicate. I would recommend him very highly.

Worst ever property management service…

Worst ever property management service and horrible staff. Agency is so favourable to landlords and are not at all considerate to tenants. We had massive water leak and half of false ceiling fell down mid nite in living room due to rain and some builder left work half done repaired upstairs. No emergency number worked nor the landlord responded and water was dripping from electrical lamps. I and my pregnant wife were left with no help and hazardous to stay at home. This happened on Saturday and I had to leave email to agency and couldn’t do much. Got call from agency on Monday with simple inconvenience apology. Eventually the fix took 20 to get back to original and when we asked for compensation, team lead of acorn was so rude to me saying it’s all owner side and she can’t do much and house was in habitable state where actually we had just one room and difficult for my pregnant wife to move around. It’s so evident that owner pays this agency money so they can go to any level to support them though they are wrong. At the end they wrote email again favouring owner saying they have gone above and beyond to help and are willing to reduce £100 in the rent for one month (of £1275) which is so cheap. Also email they write is so rude and unmannered favouring the owner.

Giving estate agents a bad name

We bought a house from Acorn in Peckham. The process was made infinitely less pleasant due to the actions of the Acorn team, and at various points the sale almost fell through as they destroyed any sense of mutual trust. Luckily we actually met the vendor half way through the process, and she herself made us feel much more comfortable about proceeding.Dealing with George, the Peckham branch manager, was particularly painful, as he was invariably rude and put undue pressure on the process with transparent sales tactics. I'm hugely relieved to have completed the process and not have to deal with him ever again.James was our point of contact more generally, and was better, but lied to us at least twice (just the times we caught him), which did nothing to improve our dim view of Acorn as an agency. It's no wonder that estate agents have a bad reputation.

I have had an amazing experience with Emily. I called up and registered with her for my search and she made sure that I was a priority as a registered applicant, informing me once she had a new property within my price range. She was able to turn things around quickly, with great communication skills and updating me throughout the process. I would definitely recommend reaching out to Emily if you are looking for properties in Sevenoaks. Thank you!

Incessant and stress-inducing agents

Today I received yet another unsolicited call from Acorn (today it was Ryan), despite numerous agents telling me they will remove my details from their database and despite me telling them that I DO NOT want anything to do with them - in particular, since they sent a letter to my dead father! When I originally met with Acorn - which I regret immensely! - I told them about his death, but it seems that selling properties is more important than leaving people to grieve! Edit: Regarding Acorn’s reply stating I did not contact them in July, I did include customer service in my email to Brendan Kennedy last year informing him that I did not want to be contacted again by Acorn and you obviously did nothing! I will email you again in the remote hope that Acorn will leave me alone once and for all!

I would strongly advise landlords to avoid Acorn

I would strongly advise landlords to think twice before using Acorn to manage their property. During a two-year tenancy, Acorn failed to carry out any inspections, leaving my property completely unmonitored. As a result, there is now serious damage and strong evidence of unauthorised subletting, which they failed to investigate properly. When I raised this issue, their response was that “no formal investigation could be carried out due to lack of evidence.” That lack of evidence exists only because they didn’t do their job. Regular inspections are a basic duty of a managing agent, and Acorn completely neglected this responsibility. They claimed they “attempted to arrange inspections a few times” but took no further action when the tenant refused access, no escalation, no written warnings, no notice served, and no communication to me as the landlord. This level of inaction falls far below professional standards and represents clear mismanagement and a breach of duty of care. To make matters worse, they offered just £250 compensation, which is insulting given the financial loss and distress caused. I’ve now had to escalate the matter to their directors and the Property Ombudsman for investigation. If you’re a landlord looking for a reliable, proactive agent, avoid Acorn. Their lack of accountability and professionalism has been extremely disappointing.

What can I say - Paul valued our house at 1pm and we shook on a price with a buyer at 6pm. Moving house is never simple but Paul, Chris and the team certainly made things a lot easier. Thanks again. Highly recommended if you are looking to sell in the area.

Really great friendly and constant service from Paul, Will and the team at Langford Russell in Sevenoaks. They found our buyers really quickly with lots of viewings and were always available to answer queries, follow up with the buyers, solicitors and other estate agents. I would recommend them if you are selling.

I am incredibly happy with all aspects of my sale and the service provided by Langford and Russell, specifically Will and Paul. Will was very helpful and kept me updated with all communications and liaised between both sets of solicitors. I would recommended them and use them for any future sale.

Seamless experience - thanks George!

From the initial call to completion George Liney at Acorn Dulwich was a fantastic estate agent. Communicative, fast, thorough and super helpful every step of the way. We were first time buyers so had lots of questions so we are appreciative of the time George took to help us in the process. Thank you!

Over and above

Had a particularly difficult sale due to cladding/ews1 issues but Jake and Layton at Acorn went over and above to ensure I got a sale that completed. Both kept me up to date, kept chasing the buyer's solicitor and got my transaction completed. I couldn't have asked for more from them.

Katlyn is very supportive

Katlyn is very supportive. She gave me regular updates and always followed up on any issues. She remained very positive and was determined for the sale to go through. Amelia, who is a colleague of Katlyn was also very helpful. I really do hope that their hard work is recognised by others. They are amazing.

Sale of Property

After a poor experience with another agent it was refreshing to work with a great set of professionals (Tommy, Jackie and Joe) at the Belvedere branch. They were able to find a buyer for our property very quickly (pre-covid) and I was kept up to date with the progress of the sale regularly even when everything went into lockdown. I would defiantly recommend Acorn team to anyone looking to sell their property.
