Would give zero if I could

Would give zero if I could. We had lots of issues with the house and the estate agents just ghosted us. To this day, they still owe me money for the keys because they couldn't even manage to get keys cut right (never heard of checking?). I keep asking when it will be returned and Lewis just says "I will get back to you". Special shoutout to Lewis for being particularly useless on this matter and for maintenance issues overall. They left us with broken furniture for a whole year- they kept saying they would send someone to fix it but never did. The house had an awful mould problem- they sent someone over to give quotes to install extractor fan in bathroom but nothing came of that. They tried to milk money out of the deposit but we argued so they backed out (their claims had no merit). Would not recommend. They don't check that houses are suitable to live in, and they don't respond or care if there's an issue with the house. Not responsible, practical, or reliable.

I rang their rose hill branch to let them know a property they are managing has a sofa outside which is causing an eyesore and was put through to the manager. She spoke to me so rudely, refused to help and hung up on me.

We have just found our ‘Forever Home’ with Allen and Harris Wallingford and we have been most impressed with the excellent service from Justin and his team, who even turned up at the property on his day off to make sure we secured the purchase! We then went through the offer qualification process with Olivia who was excellent at understanding our needs and requirements and has consequently just saved us £100s a month!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Ken Krupinski, was excellent throughout the process of buying our dream bungalow, and I could honestly say without his professional support the purchase would have broken down on numerous occasions. He was tenacious in chasing every hiccup …

Rude and abrupt - Clarkston Branch

I have been waiting a month for a call back with more information. I found a couple times over the month and got told that I would be called back. I phoned today and the lady was rude and abrupt, saying they already phoned - which they did not. This whole experience has made us never want to use them.

Shady, sneaky, dishonest.

Hope to never have to deal with this company again. This company work only for their own self-interest and not for their clients. Purposefully deceitful in order to bump up offers and sabotage accepted offers that they aren't happy with. Avoid.

Dreadful service from Allen and Harris…

Dreadful service from Allen and Harris Stratton Branch and especially Steve Hudson. This branch used to be fantastic and I bought my house from them over 3 years ago but how things have changed. Luckily I had brilliant agents selling my property (Richard James) but have the misfortune of buying one through Steve at Allen and Harris in Stratton who is totally useless.He has lied, been uncommunicative and never even supplied me with the property details that I'm buying. Without any assistance from Steve, we're finally nearing completion and I've been trying, without success to contact Steve for the past 2 days but he's refusing to answer my emails or calls. This review is solely of the Stratton branch but I would suggest you re-think your agents if you're in this catchment area

The adviser who was also the manager gave wrong information false expectations did not meet the agreed timeline for the sale of the property resulting additional cost to me as the seller . the manager /adviser did not return my calls I reported this poor service to head office and got no response . this is the second issue I have had with this company and would advise potential customer to steer clear of this. Good sale talk but no follow through Delays thrpough every part of the process

Had to give 1 star as giving none was not an option. My daughter was a long term tenant (10 years plus) but was unexpectedly served 2 months notice to leave. Reason given was to replace the kitchen. This was a fabrication as the flat was then remarketed and let with nothing changed. The Allen and Harris bath branch who were the letting agent were unhelpful in finding alternative accommodation, devious and unprofessional in their conduct of business (lies, mixed messages, not responding) and finally delayed the return of the deposit. This was an appalling way to treat a long standing tenant of impeccable credentials. Please take heed and go elsewhere as the trauma and hassle of dealing with this agent is not worth the effort.

Harry from Allen and Harris

Harry from Allen and Harris, supported myself and my partner with our mortgage process and application. This included 3 x face to face appointments. During the appointments harry was very professional, friendly and approachable. Things we didn’t quite understand, being first time buyers, were explained in great depth. Not only did harry sort out the mortgage application, but also all the important insurance covers too. May I add, 10 days after our mortgage application was submitted, we had an email back to say it was accepted! Much quicker than what we thought the process would take! ☺️ thank you! We would definitely recommend

Thoroughly recommend Allen and Harris

Thoroughly recommend Allen and Harris. Selling a house that was my grandparents and latterly my late parents was a difficult and emotional thing to do, coupled with me living a two hour drive away. The team were very kind, thoughtful. Kept me up to date and really went above and beyond, offering to get legal paperwork from their office to my solicitors for me. I would particularly mention James Lamb and Connor Sherman. I wouldn't hesitate to use Allen & Harris for buying or selling any property.

Really positive experience with Allen and Harris. As a first time buyer they were great at answering any questions, they kept in contact throughout the process with updates. They were also really accommodating with viewings as myself and my partner had limited times that we were both available to view the property. Massive thanks to Amy and Ken and all the team - excited to get settled in our new home!

the one in bristol never answer their phone for enquiries (it was end of january, maybe busy period?). Even if you leave your name + phone number twice, they do not give call back.

Absolute joke

Emailed to ask for a viewing of a house, was called by (apparently) the head office and told it would be booked in. We arranged our day around the viewing and got excited to view what looked like a really lovely house. I got a bad feeling the day we were meant to view it as I hadn't had any confirmation email and was told that I hadn't been booked in at all. I then asked to book it in for another evening and my details were taken this time. Again, arranged our day around the viewing, didn't receive a confirmation email. Rang again and was told that it hadn't been booked in, they didn't have my details on the database and the vendor had said they only wanted people that were ready to buy to view the house and because mine is going through the process of being put on the market, that I couldn't view it. Absolute joke. Wasted so much of our time. AND they had the balls to ask if we needed an estate agent to put our house on the market - as if I would go anywhere near them now. Will be avoiding any houses that are being sold by them now and in the future.

Well what can I say if you want the best go to Allen and Harris Wallingford, a excellent company who talk to you and do not just send E-Mails. Nothing is to much trouble for them and they go the extra mile at all times. A big thank you to the team for selling my house with special thanks to Ken and Amy for all there care and attention to detail.

I have been working with Allen & Harris Wallingford for a year now and I can only say their service has been impeccable. In recent months I have dealt with Gemma who has been wonderful. She has kept in regular touch even if there were not any booked viewings, given timely feedback and nothing has been too much trouble. I would definitely recommend Gemma and her team at the Wallingford Branch.

The Allen and Harris Wallingford team have been absolutely superb to us for the past year, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Our sale unfortunately fell through on several occasions through absolutely no fault of A&H and every time the team were supportive, proactive and worked really hard to get another sale as quickly as possible. I believe they genuinely cared about getting something sorted for us - in the end they pulled out all the stops and must have worked solidly for several days to ensure that a part exchange went through, despite there being no financial incentive for them in doing so. If you want a team who will keep fighting hard and trying everything to sell your house for the best possible price, look no further. I would definitely recommend them to any family or friends looking to move.

Unreliable and untrustworthy.

Unreliable and untrustworthy.This company has been a source of frustration for ourselves and our landlord.We had viewings deceptively organised behind our backs while living in the property, under the guise of agents being allowed to take photos.We also confirmed our deposit return with our landlord and agent and then received no deposit or response for over two weeks.My wife was told today after getting in touch it was not there responsibility, until we provided screenshots of the same agent who lied to us previously explaining he would communicate with the landlord and get back to us then failed to do so.Completely inconsistent, incredibly stressful, unprofessional and no accountability. I would advise caution before working with or renting through this company.
