GoogleI am a director of John Lake so rather bias, but feel lucky to have such a great team. Alpha the Great, I would welcome hearing from you personally, or anyone who may feel my company have acted unprofessionally in any way. If your complaint is genuine, and you are still unsatisfied with our response there are of course the usual professional channels (The Property Ombudsman or NAEA of which we are proud members) and we will be delighted to answer to any complaints process for their adjudication.

GoogleI purchased a very nice apartment through John Lake, from start to finish I found them to be absolutely first class. Being relatively new to Torbay I found they had extensive knowledge and experience of the area, their service was excellent and nothing was too much trouble throughout the whole process.
I learnt that the property I bought had previously been on sale for some time with another agent, yet having had the property for less than 2 weeks John Lake had already had one offer when I was looking at the property.
They have vast experience of the local market, are excellent at valuing and marketing properties, I will certainly return to them when I plan to sell this apartment in the next few years.
Highly recommended

GoogleI had a phone call from John Lake and he was extremely rude and unprofessional, in fact, I was both angry and upset when I got off the phone call to the point I used my own devices to trace who he was and leave a review. John called me for information I was more than happy to give but projected nothing but a bad attitude and tone of voice. I hope in the future you speak to people how you wish to be spoken to yourself. I have never been spoken to so appallingly. It was both undeserved and unneeded. I'd give 0 stars if I could.

GoogleJohn Lake Estate Agents have recently sold my property and I would recommend them 100% to anyone. All staff members are professional and will go out of their way to help, a rare quality these days. I also found their level of knowledge for the properties and local area second to none to the point where they have also found me the property I want to purchase.
I cannot thank John Lake Estate Agents enough for their top level customer service.

GoogleI have recently had the opportunity to work with John Lake Estate Agents and I can whole heartedly give them a full 5 star review. Their professionalism, reliability, honest and integrity is unquestionable. I don't hesitate to give them my full personal recommendation and if you want to contact me directly I'll be more than happy to confirm that support.
I've just noticed a so-called 'review' on here from 'Charles Gaskings', a dummy account, clearly from a competitor of John Lake Estate Agents. It's very sad to see that some people in this world spend their time trying to bring other people down rather than to step up their own game.
Which reminds of a saying...
There are 2 ways to own the tallest building in the city.
1) To knock down all the other buildings.
2) To build the tallest building in the city.
Keep up the good work guys, you are doing a great job!

GoogleI have dealt with the John Lake Lettings Department for some time now and have only one word to describe them '"FLAWLESS". From management and negotiators, to admin and accounts, they have always gone beyond their duty to satisfy any requests or needs required from them. Their professional, courteous and friendly approach will endlessly be appreciated and recommended.
