TrustpilotVery impressive standard of service
I've been impressed by the efficiency and quality of service that I've received from the Wards Faversham branch - in particular Hannah - who has incredibly knowledgeable, professional, friendly, honest and straightforward to deal with. Having had dealings with other Estate Agents in Faversham, they are incredibly pro-active in comparison, and were constantly on the ball with everything. Made it feel like a very personal service. Would highly recommend.

TrustpilotPassed referencing a month ago and no tenancy agreement
Passed referencing a month ago, but they and the landlady keep me in limbo. They outright refuse to provide a tenancy agreement before move-in, missed the legal statutory deadline to return my holding deposit under the Tenant Fees Act 2019, and told me on the phone that they 'do things differently'. They refuse to return the holding deposit and keep sending emails about moving in.

GoogleWe've just purchased a house through Wards of Faversham and completed on Friday. Could not be happier with the service, Hannah Roberts was there for all of our needs from viewings until the final sale, supporting us and and coordinating between us and the sellers. She was always so friendly, helpful, available all of the time to speak and felt like a friend by the end of the sale as we spoke to her so much! Would definitely recommend Wards of Faversham - thank you for everything you did to support our house buying journey, we really appreciate it!

TrustpilotA big thank you to staff at Wards…
A big thank you to staff at Wards (Gillingham branch). From the first visit by Gary, who was very professional explaining the entire process to us, this was our first move after over 38 years in the same property. All the staff were helpful and able to answer our questions. Spoke to Hannah and Adam on occasion but mainly dealt with Nicole and Kim, the progressor, both of whom worked tirelessly to get us over the finish line. We really can’t thank them enough.

GoogleSelling my house was a very testing event and time for me. However Paul, Hannah and Shahla were always there for me, whether it be factual information, reassurance or clarification. When times got really rough due to difficult circumstances in the chain, I was able, with trust, to hand responsibility over to the team, enabling me to shift from acute anxiety to a position of balance and confidence. I was always treated with personable, kindness and respect. Thank you Paul, Hannah and Shahla your professionalism was very much appreciated.

TrustpilotProfessional and supportive staff from initial meeting to completion of dale
After researching, Wards of Tenterden were the obvious choice from the number of local sales. Alex the branch manager was our first point of contact. He explained all options clearly allowing us to make our choice without feeling pressured. From then our main point of contact was Becky. A superstar, local resident with a good knowledge of Tenterden. She has an absolutely great manner, is relaxed, whilst remaining professional and courteous at all times. Nothing felt too much trouble and she kept us fully informed of all visits and progress during the sale. She is a great asset to Wards.

TrustpilotFIVE STARS TO HELPFUL HANNAH
When you have moved house more than 20 times, you know within seconds if the experience is going to be good or bad. Happily, we have found our dealings with Hannah Roberts at Wards of Faversham a joy. Hannah is in exactly the right job. Personable, friendly and professional, Hannah treats clients with respect and a clear understanding of their wishes. There is no talking down, empty excuses or waffle. Instead, a helpful and factual assessment of the way forward. Importantly, once she secured a sale to us, Hannah did not say “Job done” or “Commission in the bag.” She has made very regular phone calls (not impersonal emails) to receive feedback on our progress. To those of us who hardly know what Generation X is personal contact is a crucial factor. We are very pleased with the manner in which Hannah has pushed our purchase forward and look forward to moving in to our new home. Five Stars to Helpful Hannah. Or as she would say:”You’re welcome, My Lovelies “Chris and Aileen, Brighton.

TrustpilotWell done Wards Lettings
We have used the services of Wards over many years for the sale and also rental of our properties. They have always been very professional and efficient. Our most recent business was regarding the rental of a property and the Rental Team dealt with this in a professional way right up to the point of the new tenant moving in. Molly was especially helpful from start to finish and kept us informed of the various potential tenants and worked with us to ensure we had the best applicant for our property and met with our requirements. A job well done 👏

TrustpilotAppalling from start to finish
Appalling from start to finishThe head of lettings appeared professional at the first meeting but it was steeply downhill from there. She went away and set up a number of viewings without bothering to tell me the date. The first I knew of the viewings was when the Wards person turned up to show people around.What’s more, the head of lettings didn’t bother to brief the colleague who managed the viewings, as a result of which I had to repeat to this person everything I had already said about the property and the rental.Wards then recommended a low-quality tenant (the only one they could find) who didn’t even meet the affordability criteria. The tenant proved troublesome and ultra-demanding and Wards simply accepted everything she complained about without any scrutiny. Wards seem to think that window latches and bathroom tiles break of their own accord. As a result, I ended up paying for the damage done by the tenant, which should rightly have been taken from the deposit.I gave Wards permission to switch the utility accounts, but they didn’t just switch the names, they also put the tenant onto a terrible tariff (in my view and that of the tenant) to earn a commission. Cheap, nasty and very unprofessional.There is so much more terrible service from Wards and Arun Estates, a name they try to hide under, there will be a second review.
Martin · 10 September 2024
Agent replied · 30 October 2024
Thank you for your feedback and positive comments about your initial meeting and please accept our apologies for miscommunications regarding viewing appointments. Your tenant passed referencing and affordability checks before moving into the property. Unfortunately the maintenance issues they reported were classed as general wear and tear and were therefore the landlord’s responsibility to rectify.Our Customer Support team would be happy to discuss your concerns further and can be contacted by calling 01702 540802 or emailing customer.support@arunestates.co.uk

Morgan and colleagues were so professional when we were looking for our home. Having never bought in the UK before, we were unsure of how the process worked and Morgan took the time to explain everything and connected us with partners who could assist us (E.g. Mortgage broker). She regularly contacted us with suitable properties as they hit the market and updated us regularly throughout the process. She was always so professional and knew the answers to all of our questions. I would highly recommend Morgan and the team to anybody looking for a new home. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience.

TrustpilotThe most trustworthy Estate Agent in Kent with exceptional sales person
What an outstanding experience `we had buying a house with Wards in Hythe, Kent thank you. Having dealt with several estate agents during the process I can honestly say the service, help and support we got from your exceptional Team member, Darren Cakebread, was second none. Darren made the whole process stress free for us. He is one in a million. Never have I meet a more professional, kind, supportive, knowledgeable Sales person who listened to our requirements and matched them to the letter finding us our dream home. Thank you. Communication is so important and a passion for the role and Darren excelled at this. We were sent lots of potential properties, more than from any other agent, viewings were informative and a pleasure and I know for sure should we move again in the future Wards Hythe and Darren Cakebread will be our first choice over any other agent in Kent. I can not recommend you highly enough. Thanks again and please pass our gratitude to Darren.

TrustpilotAsk for Lucy
I cannot recommend Lucy enough! From the moment I enlisted her help, she went above and beyond to ensure a seamless experience, even while I was away. Lucy not only put my mind at ease but also took the initiative to organise multiple contractors for me, making the entire process stress-free. Her dedication was evident when she sold my home in less than two weeks, before it even officially hit the market! She found multiple buyers, demonstrating her exceptional skills and proactive approach. Throughout, Lucy was polite, respectful, and always brought a great sense of humour to the table, which made working with her an absolute pleasure.She expertly guided me through the entire process, keeping me informed at every step. Lucy’s professionalism, warmth, and commitment to her clients set her apart, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help. If you’re looking for an estate agent who delivers outstanding results while making the process easy and enjoyable, Lucy is the one to choose!

TrustpilotStaff at the Tenterden Office of Ward’s Estate Agents
The staff at the Tenterden office of Ward’s Estate Agents, especially Becky & Alex, couldn’t have been more helpful & professional in selling our property.The sale’s brochure was excellent, all staff were always extremely friendly and polite, and went out of their way to not only make themselves fully conversant with every detail of our property, but also all the benefits of its location. As a consequence they weren’t just able to sell the house quickly, but also to the right purchaser for us, a family with no property to sell and no chain.In particular we can’t praise Becky highly enough for the exceptional service she provided in persuading the purchaser to view our house when they were more Interested in another area. Incidentally she made such a good job of the sale, that the new owners are highly delighted with their purchase.

Alex and Tina did a fantastic job selling my property. The property was on for only a week with dozens of viewers lined and and an offer around the week mark. Alex and Tina were priceless in managing the soft elements of the legalities of the sale. As our buyers were first time buyers they were not sure what to do or what to expect; frankly their solicitor wasn’t much help and it was Alex and Tina guiding them on what they had to do and what to instruct their solicitor to do. Without them I’m sure we’ll still be on the market.

TrustpilotNervous first timer for house purchase
As a first timer for house purchase I was nervous and unsure what to expect. Maisie M-J at Wards was assigned to me. Cant say a bad word about her, She was friendly yet professional, nothing was too much trouble for her. She answered all my queries, several times and if she didn't know the answer outright she found it out. Maisie talked me through the process of making an offer and subsequent actions, information on surveyors, stamp duty and such. Unfortunately the sale did not go through but Maisie kept in touch to offer further help and support. She put me at ease of the whole situation.

We are sorry to learn that the property was not cleaned to the required standard by the previous occupant and could have rectified this for you if it was reported when you moved in.
