Trustpilotaggressive pricing
aggressive sale prices. you price everything with desperation. I already what properties are advertised by wards. no regard to location, practicality, features that will require attention etc, they just slap a higher end price possible on it.They once tried to sell a house that had no central heating, hidden mould with pain, cracked windows and that would need a hell of a lot of work to renovate to bring up to date, for such a ridiculously high price and even too proud to negotiate, trying the odd tactic of 'there are a lot of interested parties, and they offered..., would you like to match the offer or go higher'They were unsuccessful through the summer and had to give up as it approached the autumn as buyers would start to notice and brought up the faults every time. sort your pricing out.

TrustpilotFabulous service from Kirsty
Just had the pleasure of speaking to Kirsty Hunt at Wards. She was super friendly and personable on the phone and explained everything fully regarding some unallocated rental payments they’re returning to us. Great call and quick to follow it up with a friendly email too giving another overview so my wife is also aware. Great service Kirsty, thanks!

TrustpilotAaron and Wards of Kent are amazing!
Everything with Wards of Kent was very smooth and helpful. The man helping me, Aaron Stoner, was incredibly useful and was always helping where he could. I genuinely could not have asked for more. Couldn’t recommend Aaron or Wards of Kent enough to anyone looking for a property. 5 star service.

Trustpilot5 Star Service!
From the moment Jonathan came to provide a valuation until the moment Anouska saw my sale through to completion, Wards provided a 5 star service. There was constant communication throughout and Anouska went above and beyond to ensure the sale and my purchase were progressing. Ward's were on the ball the entire time keeping me updated and making sure that the other parties were also doing their bit.I would definitely use Wards again, and recommend the Strood branch!

TrustpilotI've recently moved in property
I've recently moved in property. The welcome gift is lovely. All moving process are so easy and smooth. The staff are professionals who know they job well and always supports whenever and wherever they offer they help. Especially, Prateek is the best, he has the most of the property knowledge. He goes for extra mile in his job. After office hours closed, he came to my flat to help me with my enquires. He responded and solved my all enquires. I highly recommend using this agency. Because, they have professional staff and all your enquires are handled quickly. I hope, they continue this way.

I have contacted Ward's via listing details for more than 30 properties they have advertised and have yet to be contacted back. Calls were answered and I would be told that someone in letting would call me back as soon as they were available. Over 2 months and no calls were ever returned. In less than 5 days, using another agency, I had keys and was moving in to a new place.If you are on a time restraint when relocating, BEWARE of using this company.

TrustpilotGreat experience
This is my first time to rent a property thru Wards. I am glad that my experience of renting was handled by Maria Byrne (Ramsgate Branch) from starting till the end of getting the key. She is so thoughtful, dedicated, be empathy, efficient in dealing problems that appeared in the rented property. Even though that was not her job scope, but she will still try to help me as she knew that English is not my first language and will try to understand me and convey the correct message to her colleague in the maintenance team.

TrustpilotNew Tenant
I had the good fortune to have my tenancy managed by Tessa Daniels at Ward's Lettings, Strood. Having been unable to move into our property and having limited time to find a rental home, Tessa did everything possible to ensure a smooth move was accomplished. Tessa is a credit to her team, demonstrating professionalism and an ability to manage all parties (tenant, landlords, contractors) effectively. Tessa clearly in an experienced lettings agent and responds calmly to the challenges of her role. I would strongly recommend Tessa to anyone wishing to let or to rent via the Wards lettings team.

After the sale of the property l experienced a complete lack of communication and empathy from.the agent. Despite repeated attempts to get assistance. They failed to contact the seller after collecting their commission. Their handling of the situation was highly unprofessional showing no willingness to support or resolve outstanding issues. Overall the service provided was below expexmctation and l would not recommend their services to anyone looking for a a reliable and responsible agent.

TrustpilotProfessional Service
Very grateful for the professional approach of the parent company, Wards/Arun Lettings as part of Arun Estate Agencies Ltd., particularly Kate in Horsham. Wards/Arun Estates inherited a very difficult situation following the previous agency's unsatisfactory management of both an initial tenancy and unwanted follow-on, neither monitoring dilapidations nor performing due diligence on new tenants. Kate managed the situation and obtained vacant possession in a professional and non-confrontational manner, which hopefully will enable us to restore a late parent's property to what it once was. Highest commendations are due both to Arun Estates and Kate in particular.

I found my rental house through Wards. After months of house hunting and exhaustion, the current property was shown to me by a lovely lady named Vanessa. She was very supportive, encouraging and patiently listens with a genuine heart. She was really helpful which made the whole process smooth. It is hard to find genuine souls like her. Our heartfelt thanks to Vanessa who deserves an appreciation for her sincere work. Many Thanks Vanessa & Wards

TrustpilotHighly recommended! Professional and friendly
From the beginning David was super helpful and prompt. Once we got the property the process was smooth and prompt with no issues at all. Also the help of Maria with other admin chase ups. We were a bit slack with getting back to both David and Maria but they were both patient with us as we went through the entire process. Would highly recommend Wards. Very professional in both the process and attitude. Appreciate it.

We were in the process of buying a property from ward when the seller pulled out, this was not Ward's fault. This took 4 months and we were nearly at the exchange point. My problem with Ward was their unprofessional attitude, not responding to calls on time. They are not open and forthright.From the onset, l have a feeling something was not right but l couldn't pin point it. Be careful if you have to use them,make sure that things are clear to you from the onset. I won't be using them in the future.

Received a letter today unsolicited from Giles Warner who claims to be 'senior branch partner'. It starts "I noticed your property recently went on the market...."It has not gone on the market or even been discussed with any agent for several years. So the letter stars with a complete lie and follows up with an attempt to coerce us to ditch our imaginary current agent and appoint them. This is frankly scammer behaviour. So I looked them up with the regulatory bodies and protection schemes and found no reference to any of their multiple trading names.

Frankly the best Estate agents I have dealt with.I conducted from overseas and from the first phone call to the end of the process (securing the flat), they were helpful, precise and thourough. Laura, who was my main contact, kept in touch regularly to keep me informed of how things were going, she sent me a video of the flat as I could not visit it in person and answered all my questions regardless of how trivial those were. I would highly recommend them to anyone in search of a flat in that area. Thank you so much to the Ward team and Laura in particular for supporting throughout the process which in my previous experiences have been rather stressful. Not this one though!!!

Although my property did not go through to completion with Wards, I received excellent support throughout the journey. They were attentive, approachable & caring. Darren is certainly management material, deserving of any promotions. Little Mark a proactive, swift Manager pays attention to detail. Big Mark is adorable loved by all that interact with him. Not forgetting Florence who listens to her client's needs & is always immaculate & stylish. I certainly recommend them all
