Incredibly rude staff

I rented a property that was part managed by John D Wood. The service was just awful - whenever we wanted something done with any urgency, they never responded. As soon as they wanted something, we'd receive really abrupt and quite rude emails demanding that we respond immediately. The tone of all staff was rude and often accusatory. I still have no idea what the landlord paid them for as they didn't manage the property as we dealt with all the maintenance issues.

Average performance

A recent new tenant who turned out to be very pleasant was found very quickly. The previous Tenancy Find was supposed to be for two tenants in the flat whereas in fact there were three and I was not happy about that.

Bad service from JDW. Spoke to an extremely rude receptionist or something or other...Eloise or Louise...didn’t care to ask her to confirm. Very curt and seemingly unwilling to be of assistance. Will stay away from all branches in future following this experience. Maybe less money should be spent on marketing shiny brochures and more on customer service training!!!!

We have been with John D Wood for the last 2 years and they have been great agents. Recently we have been in contact with Laura Purvor for our move out process. Thus far she has made the process easy and has been considerate of our time etc. Hope we can work with her in the future.

Had an absolute pleasure working with Laura (JDWood Twickenham) recently. She helped with finding a tenant for our new flat and managed everything throughout the process with ease and professionalism. Easy communication throughout which made things easier too. Happy to work with her in the future.

Parsons Green Team

The team were excellent in helping me recently find and move into a property with short deadlines. Nicole was especially helpful in ensuring everything moved quickly and seamlessly. Would highly recommend.

Excellent Experience

John D Wood & Co. recently helped me to sell my property and I found them extremely professional and very helpful. Nothing seemed to be too much trouble and when a storm took down a tree and demolished the hedge, they immediately got a chap along to sort it out.Their communication regarding feedback from potential buyers was superb. I never had to chase them for information and I would recommend them to anyone wishing to sell a property.

The JDW Chelsea Green sales team worked tirelessly to sell my property in 2020, despite the lockdowns and the pandemic. In particular, I want to thank Robert, Jamie, Sema and Will for their enthusiasm and persistence. Well done!

I have had consistent help and good advice from all those at the Wandsworth office. Shoeni is standout in her knowledge and attitude. Communication has been excellent over the many years I have used them as my letting agent.

Waste of time

Waste of time. Never responded to my email enquiries or my telephone enquiries. Would not waste my time.

JDW Laura's team was very professional and efficient. My husband and I are both first time renter in London, they guided us through the whole process with great patience. Within 20 days, we have started our brand-new life, and we love the property so much. It has been a smooth experience with JDW. Highly recommended!

Dishonourable

After we had our offer accepted Sally Behan in Weybridge called to tell us we had been gazumped. We increased our offer above asking price but were told they wouldn’t sell to us. Turns out when the seller found out our name they decided not to sell to us for ‘personal reasons’When pushed about ‘personal reasons’ she then said that there was actually a cash buyer who offered asking price. That property remained on the market for 5 weeks after that before it said under offer. Friends of mine were able to call and make viewings during this time. Disappointing that a company owned by Skipton Building Society would behave like this. The honourable thing to do would be stop acting for the seller but the commission was clearly more important.

Thanks for Laura and Charlotte have assisted me to find the suitable flat for my family. They are very good attitude providing comfortable renting process. If I will need renting in future, I have to choose John D Wood & Co to help again.

Agent not trustworthy

I was told John D Wood (Primrose Hill) were a well respected local agency with whom I could sell my property, and they seem, on the surface, very professional. But I grew to dread calls from my allocated agent - a smooth talking, cocky young man - he seemed to constantly be on the side of the buyer, not mine. He told a couple of utter lies about offers coming in, he had a total lack of attention to detail, and eventually I ended up moving to a different agency where I had a much more pleasant experience. They may be on prime Primrose Hill high street, and have lovely properties for sale, but do not let that fool you! I just did not trust them. Go elsewhere.

Best estate agents I've ever dealt with! Laura, the Lettings manager, was super helpful and informative both when we moved into our tenancy and when we moved out - customer service was everything I would have hoped for and more. Cannot recommend enough!

Not valued as a buyer

We had a really stressful time as a buyer with JDW Esher. Details of the conditions of our offer we’re not passed onto vendor at all; when confronted with this when the transaction was at risk, it was glossed over / denied. We were also told a delayed completion was ‘impossible’. We ended up dealing direct with vendor, with a delayed completion, without issue. Got the feeling JDW were happy for us to lose out and simply switch to another buyer.

Terrible experience- J D Wood Summertown

Terrible experience dealing with the Letting team in OxfordI wanted to rent an apartment in Summertown, the lady agent has been extremely unprofessional, instead of solving my issues, this agent was rude and asked for the same information twice. Whenever I have a question, she would just shoot me down without checking with the landlord. She has been impolite and maybe she didn't think I am not a capable tenant - I ended up paying double for a nicer apartment!

Terrible experience with the manager at John D Wood Southfields

Terrible experience with the manager at the Southfields branch. To call him arrogant would be an understatement!I have now sold and bought property through this branch. Dealing with the same agent each time. I would rather give my property away than ever use him again.If he asked a question he expected an answer immediately. sometimes calling twice in one day and following up with emails. Bullying tactics and bickering with me over any decision that didn't suit him. He has no idea how to treat customers and suspect he has no one supervising his behavior. He's a disgrace to any company and should work in a back room where he has no contact with customers.

I wanted to give minus for the score

I wanted to give minus for the score, but I guess 1 is the lowest score permitted. I was looking for the room to rent, and finally found very nice flat. Before I can rent the room, I had to go through referencing process which was quite traumatic. They had the problem with my current landlord referencing; though I had provided my landlord's contact and they can make the direct contact to my landlord, they kept asking me for the document I didn't have. As the result, they changed the referencing platform and asked me to fill the landlord contact and my employer contact again. This time, they had the problem with contacting my employer (The funny thing was that they requested me to fill the form in evening and expected my employer to answer right away in the morning). Apart from that, unless they demand something from you, they will unlikely answer your e-mail. To be honest, this company treated me like I was begging to live in the room for free. On the bright side, I am glad that this is just for renting the room, not for buying the property. If you are the landlord or tenant, please stay away from this agency for your own good.

High calibre agents

I'm the landlord of a family-owned flat in Chelsea, and have used JDW for our last two tenancies.Initially, it was clear that Ed had a better knowledge of our neighbourhood than the other agents we tried. Given JDW's reputation, their fees were more reasonable than we expected - yet surprisingly the asking price was higher. It was a no-brainer, and more surprisingly, they managed to secure this higher level of rent, rather than it being a pitch just to win the business. When it came time to find new tenants, they again exceeded our expectations by securing (in the pandemic) 12 months advance rent at nearly the same rate.I wouldn't use JDW for management purposes as they seemed slightly inefficient (perhaps as all agents are?) when they organised our EICR. Aside from this, Ed has always had time on the phone to discuss anything from particularities to the state of the market - and his experience shows. Furthermore, his lettings team are very friendly and on the ball.Highly recommended.
