GoogleI was not having much luck selling my property with another agent when I came across Ben from Douglas Allen when viewing a potential property to buy. I was immediately impressed by his professionalism and knowledge and ability to build a rapport with clients. I decided to switch agents after a consultation with Maria the branch manager and Douglas Allen lined viewings up almost immediately and I quickly found a buyer. Both Ben and Maria are helpful, cheerful and friendly. I strongly recommend Douglas Allen when choosing an agent!PositiveProfessionalism

Very happy with the service I received from Douglas Allen. Khaleesha was amazing and thanks to Steve and Keith as well. Top job and if I’d stayed with the other agent I would probably still be hoping for a miracle.

Dear Mr Adams,Thank you very much for your 5 Star review of the service you received from our Woodford Green office with regards to selling your home. As you bear testament to, not all agents provide the help and service we do and certainly don't have exceptional staff such as Steve, Khaleesha and Keith who you kindly mention.On behalf of the whole team here, thank you very much for your custom.Kind regards,Jon Holden - Managing Director

Trustpilotfriendly and effective service
I have nothing but postive things to say about the service we have received from the Walthamstow branch of Douglas Allen. Since booking the first viewing of the house we are buying, through to almost completing on the sale, we have had a friendly and very responsive service. Maria handled the offer and negotiation process quickly and effectively and made the communciations with the seller very easy and smooth. Ben has handled our later viewings fo the house with great patience - nothing was too much trouble for him, and also offered very helpful advice about surveys, etc. And Nina who answers the phone always seems to know who I am! So all round, as buyers, we are very happy with the team.

GoogleThe process of purchasing through Douglas Allen literally couldn’t have gone smoother. Of all the estate agents I’ve had dealings with over the years, this was by far the most positive. Maria, Tai, Ella & Alisha couldn’t have been more helpful. Would highly recommend their services as a buyer, and assume the same for the vendor as the process was very slick. Thanks again guys, you really went the extra mile!

I recently sold my property through the Walthamstow branch of Douglas Allen.I had used two different estate agents previous to this with no luck but my house sold within a couple of weeks of going with Douglas Allen.I have mainly been dealing with Ameer and Maria and they have been really helpful. This is the first time I have sold a property so don’t really know the process but they have helped me through every step of the way and I have been able to go into branch (COVID safe) and they have helped me go through any paperwork I didn’t understand.Everyone in branch are really friendly and happy to deal with any queries.For anyone not sure which agents to go with when selling their property I would highly recommend these guys

TrustpilotNasir, East Ham branch.
We have been helped in the search for a new home by Nasir at the East Ham branch. Absolutely amazing customer service and professionalism has been core to all his conduct with us. He took the time to listen to what it was that we were looking for and thereafter arranged viewings which were suitable- this is in contrast to other estate agents. He has been patient with questions and queries we have constantly been throwing at him, always taking the time to answer without making us feel the troublesome customers we are- genuinely a lovely competent member of staff and evidence of the excellent recruitment at Douglas Allen. The team leader Maureen and the rest of the team seem lovely too. Ten out of ten :)

TrustpilotI DO NOT RECOMMEND Douglas Allen Walthamstow
We were introduced to Douglas Allen Walthamstow via the Co-Operative Probate Service and Movewithus. We instructed them to sell our property. I wish I could find something positive to say about Douglas Allen Walthamstow and the Branch Manager but there is nothing. They completely wasted our time for over three months. We gave them notice and took our business else where. We instructed another estate agent, whose fees were cheaper, and they achieved a higher sale price, so we ended up being £12,000 better off. I DO NOT recommend Douglas Allen Walthamstow.

I have been part of a modern auction which was a new one on me and, frankly, very daunting but Maria was always available and patiently answered all my questions. I felt very supported.
