GoogleThe property was originally listed with another branch but as soon as it was listed with Sidcup branch a buyer was soon found.
The manager Kelly Walsh was very efficient in chasing outstanding solicitor queries as we approached exchange and completion and was always available to handle any queries.

TrustpilotAll positive from us
Hi, Not sure why everybody's complaining about this estate agency. I dealt with Damian (London-Kennington branch) and I have to admit he's been really helpful, he tried to talk with the landlord trying to meet our offer. In the end, he managed to convince him to accept our offer (after refusing it the first time) but unfortunately, it was too late as we already arranged with someone else.No issues in terms of money either, holding deposit been refunded after a couple of days.All positive from us

TrustpilotLettings department is a let down
Lettings department is a let down. - The person you are looking for is never available, promised call backs never happen. - Lack of internal communication ie the house we rented was being sold, then towards the end of tenancy our property manager (some new person who was never introduced) asked to urgently confirm if we want to renew tenancy...- Ridiculously overpriced quotes for work. Received a £3k quote to fix a window issue. Got it done for a few hundred without them...Spent a bit over 5 years in the property, in year 2 we stopped talking to them and went directly to our landlord due to above mentioned problems. Landlord ended up selling the house via another agency for same reasons. Waiting for the deposit now, provided all information they asked for and received zero confirmation/update as to what to expect. We are talking about a 30 seconds email...

TrustpilotWhere to really start….
Where to really start - from the offset the agent we dealt with lied to us consistently about an endless list of things, about the sellers situation, to the the tenure of the property, to the structure of the property - the list goes on. Every agent we dealt felt like they were pretending to be an estate agent, and seemed to think that the best way to handle buyers is to lie to them, and the deny everything. They will do whatever they need to to get the property sold. They are smarmy, untrustworthy and selfish. I can’t imagine the culture in the office is healthy at all. Our solicitors said they were the most unprofessional, rude and intimidating agents she had ever dealt with, and if the whole process hadn’t already been delayed by so long because of their complete lack of ability, we would have gone to the Property Ombudsman because some of their practices were so incredibly dodgy and almost definitely illegal. I wouldn’t go near them with 10 barge poles.

We are still having issues renting a place I’m beginning to take things very personal They took over £500 of my money for a holding deposit and now won’t give it back It’s against the law so looking at a small claims court …. Because my referencing didn’t go through / FAILED as they keep saying which makes you feel horrible… Apparently they use it for the cost of referencing… I’ve been private renting for 12 years at my current place … I have a good credit rating …. So something isn’t right Give me back my money 💰

TrustpilotUpdated review - there are plenty of other companies I’m sure
Further update to my review posted 15 July 2024, I received an email from Paul Deveney 16 July 2024. How efficient or coincidental was that!!! Well I have not dignified the email with a reply. It amounted to ‘corporate speak’ and my fault - not checking the small print. Mr Deveney stated some ‘Staff Training’ needed to be carried out. I find that difficult to comprehend. How do you ‘train’ staff to be honest and have integrity when some of their staff blatantly lied. I thought companies would strive to enhance their reputation apparently not. Fortunately I will not be in that situation again. Take a long dispassionate look at letting agencies before you sign a lease. It could be a frustrating and expensive experience. Good luck.

TrustpilotAwful to deal with.
Awful to deal with. Rented a house for 2.5 years. Agreed to pay a fee to break the contract and to stay until someone else moves in.Mould covered the walls within the house was the reason i moved out as they never did anything to fix. Was asked 2 weeks in advance to move out as someone was moving in. From viewing they were asking for 2500£ deposits. Was getting calls every 3 days to make sure i was moving out on time. I did. I payed for a day extra to give them time to make the exchange. Gave the keys on 10|06/24 and on 11th i get an email saying the new tenants have pulled out and im still liable for rent and bills until found someone else. I’m paying rent already somewhere else and acorn made me move out and collected keys. Nearly 2 months now from moving out and still getting told i have to pay the bills. The house was advertised more than what my rent was. Incompetent workers you should be ashamed and if the landlord knows how you’ve been dealing with me im sure he’ll run aswell. Keep away from this cowboys they just there to steal your money…

I was looking to buy a property that was advertised by AcornI asked for a viewing for this property that I was interested to buy within 1 hour of the email that was sent to me by an agent form acorn. I kept following for 2 weeks over phone and email and the agent (Katlyn) told me that they were gathering the viewing requests and will get back as to me once they get a date from Seller. After 2 weeks, when I chased them again that said it was fully booked and that I cannot be accommodated and were sorry for not mentioning it to me earlier. Highly unprofessional!

Hello Ujjal. I am sorry to read your review and have spoken to the branch in question. I am afraid the demand for this property was unprecedented (over 60 viewings) and sadly your enquiry was missed. You have been registered with us for over 6 months and we have conducted several viewings with you on other properties and so feel that your comments are a little harsh. You are still free to view if you wish? Thanks. Andrew Roberts - Customer Relations Manager
