I would like to say a huge thank you to Ms Hannah Delaney, from Oakmans. It's always clear when someone has passion for the job they do and it is clear to see that this is the case with her. Not only is she extremely knowlegable, but the fact the she is alway in a great mood makes me never scared to bother her with just one more question. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with you, Hannah. Thank you so much for being you. Keep up the amazing work you do, along with your amazing energy. Alex

Taking the pain out of house selling

Really nice guy to deal with, helpful and friendly with a really professional approach, didn’t take long either which I really wasn’t expecting. Can’t wait to see the end results of his time. Thank you

Find Another Agent

I honestly would have given 0 stars if possible. Awful. Awful. Awful. Where to start!The house: Was promised the property and individual doors would be locked upon moving in. A lie. This lead to other tenants using my room and allowing other non residents to use other rooms without the occupiers permission. The house had NOT been cleaned before moving in, and attempts to clean only carpets and matresses were made after complaints. The house was in an awful state and lacked functionality.Maintenance & communication: A severe lack of communication from the agency. The system is frequency based, so persistent or multiple forms are needed to get a response. Even then issues are seldom solved. When you do get in contact with someone, they cut you off on the phone, or ghost you after a while, so many issues have not been resolved because of this. They also like to give you less than 24 hours notice on visitation.Rent & fees: Extortionate. Discovered a tennant was being charged more than the other tennants for a smaller room. Issues was rectified, however they still received communication from the agency stating they were underpaying wich was NOT the case. Ridiculous intercommunication within the agency. Honestly dont understand what they used the "cleaning & admin" fees for as the house was not clean upon moving in. Finally, ontop of the agency fees, they charge a ridiculous amount for cleaning/waste disposal fees, despite the hefty admin fee that is supposedly contributed to cleaning. Safety: Nil Points. First a gas leak caused by a loose, knockable, unlabeled valve led to the discovery plastic piping had been used on a internal gas meter that should have been situated outside. Mold and dust in the house which triggered many allergies and sickness throughout the tenancy.I really had such high hopes as they are a well recognised and respected agent, but my experience has been sadly, quite disappointing. It was exhausting trying fo communicate issues with them to the point where you give up. They do not treat you like humans with needs, but cash cows. They do not care, and I shall never be using this branch, potentially company, again.

The team at Oakmans have been Brilliant

The team at Oakmans have been brilliant. From first survey, writing the sales material and then the support to the full process the team supported and advised us. Without Alex (Sales) and Sue (chasing progress) in particular I don’t think we would have survived the process!

I’ve nothing but praise for the service Oakmans Estate Agents has provided. Met the friendly Jilly Dandon who valued the property and talked us through the whole process. She has kept us informed of the progress throughout the sale. I have found that all the staff I have dealt with very friendly, helpful and professional
