My first time renting alone has not been an easy experience thats for sure - but the team handling my case have been amazing! They are calm, happy to explain things and very, very patient! Special thanks to Harry for having to deal with my many questions and responding quickly to all my emails, I couldn't have asked for a better bunch of people to help me through this. Would definitely use them again. Thankyou!PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

We just completed the sale of our house. Hayley and team were amazing, great level of support all the way through despite some issues with the sale when one of the buyers pulled out from the chain. Really happy overall with the whole experience. Thank you

5 stars.Jonathan was amazing with our recent house hunt. He listened to our brief and called us as soon as a property was available - we saw it before it was even online which gave us an edge against the competition viewing. It was exactly what we were after and we put in an offer straight away. It's not often you find an estate agent that listens to your brief AND follows the process right through to exchange, but Jonathan did it all and was invaluable to us. He kept us calm during the stress of solicitors etc and helped chase up all relevant parties which really is above and beyond. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone house hunting / looking to sell their property, for a great service with a smile!

Highly recommended. A professional and hard working Estate Agent. The staff are diligent, helpful and friendly. Kierron Russell was outstanding keeping me informed with the progress of my sale and liaising with all parties. Hayley Gardner-Bryant and team make the stressful process of moving much easier providing a wealth of knowledge of the local market and offering advice as required. This level of service cannot be provided by online competitors. A proactive, determined team who achieve results. Thank you

Okay, but could certainly improve.

A solid if not great estate agent. They know the SE London area well and the fact they can utilise their customer base across their branches is a positive.Initially very eager to get the flat on the market and take our business; very confident of a quick sale but when viewings failed to convert into offers for the first couple of months, updates were infrequently offered despite chasing. That said, once an offer did materialise our account manager Leon was very good in handling the process on our behalf and remained available for any other questions we had until the process concluded.

Professional and Meticulous

My husband and I would like to thank Mauricio for the immense help towards finding our flat. He and Sian did a meticulous job through the renting process. I appreciate the level of professionalism and dedication put towards their job. I would highly recommend these agents in case of finding a perfect home. Thanks to the entire team for performing a wonderful job.

I have mixed feelings about my experience with acorn because it's not nice having to judge the company due to one member of staff behaviour. Fair enough a ccj was found on my file but as soon as the ccj came up the staff responsible for my case became uninterested, stopped returning and picking my calls. I had to track him down through the company phone. He basically did not care. Bare in mind my deposit money is still with the company. After a few days of receiving completely air from the agent, I gave up and wanted and requested for my money back. There was no need to get rude to them because im sure thats what they expected but the level of professionalism was -0! My partner and myself was extremely appalled. I had to leave and find another lettings agency elsewhere.

Worst ever property management service…

Worst ever property management service and horrible staff. Agency is so favourable to landlords and are not at all considerate to tenants. We had massive water leak and half of false ceiling fell down mid nite in living room due to rain and some builder left work half done repaired upstairs. No emergency number worked nor the landlord responded and water was dripping from electrical lamps. I and my pregnant wife were left with no help and hazardous to stay at home. This happened on Saturday and I had to leave email to agency and couldn’t do much. Got call from agency on Monday with simple inconvenience apology. Eventually the fix took 20 to get back to original and when we asked for compensation, team lead of acorn was so rude to me saying it’s all owner side and she can’t do much and house was in habitable state where actually we had just one room and difficult for my pregnant wife to move around. It’s so evident that owner pays this agency money so they can go to any level to support them though they are wrong. At the end they wrote email again favouring owner saying they have gone above and beyond to help and are willing to reduce £100 in the rent for one month (of £1275) which is so cheap. Also email they write is so rude and unmannered favouring the owner.

Hayley came to the value the property. She was very enthusiastic, and gave good advice, and suggested a higher selling price, than other agents, which we achieved. I spoke to Joe on several occasions, he was helpful and polite, and answered …

I employed Langford Russell Estate Agents to sell my house in West Kent. Although the market conditions were challenging they sold the property in a most professional manner. I was very pleased with their efforts and the result.

Katlyn is very supportive

Katlyn is very supportive. She gave me regular updates and always followed up on any issues. She remained very positive and was determined for the sale to go through. Amelia, who is a colleague of Katlyn was also very helpful. I really do hope that their hard work is recognised by others. They are amazing.

Excellent service!

We worked with Kevin Ashton, Crofton Park office, to buy our forever-house. He was excellent, responsive and very knowledgeable from the start of the process to the finish. We cannot thank him enough for all his help and I would recommend working with him!

So disappointed.

Im a landlord and this was going ok, albeit with the usual chasing, until recently. now i’ve had a manager who doesn’t respond, then gives mixed messages sometimes in the same email, has not paid the tenants back their deposit, and has been wildly slow or unresponsive on repairs. I am in despair of finding a competent management company. This isn’t it. Update: I’ve since complained. but the approach is still very much “sorry for the frustration, let us try to dump the cost on the tenants, failing that we will dump them on you.”

An absolute pleasure to do business with. After having a 4 month very poor service from a previous agent we had to switch agents. Langford Russell had our property sold within a month and have been on top of everything from the start. We would highly recommend them to all our friends and family.

Great Agents, especially Hayley with great advice which lead to higher selling price achieved. Where most agents fall down is after sales service, but not this agent, nothing too much trouble!
