Estate agents don't know the property they are renting very well, flat not cleaned throughout before moving in, called multiple times over several months to get repairs done but still nothing, don't adhere to safety standards regarding gas hobs, very slow response times, changed my electricity supplier without telling me, rodent problem not being addressed Edit in response to the owner: that parking permit was not replaced until after I moved in and no cleaners came round beforehand, the hob installers chose to not follow minimum safety clearance guidances (I have this confirmed in an email from you), I have email confirmation that you changed my electricity supplier without telling me, the rodent issue is still a problem

Hello Dr. Foster, I am sorry you are unhappy with the property. It was scheduled to be cleaned before you moved in, but the previous tenant lost the parking permit and we could not get cleaners in earlier. Professional cleaners attended as soon as a permit was available. The gas hob had passed the gas safety. Once you reported the fault a replacement was ordered and installed immediately. And the rodents are part of a communal issue which building management are dealing with. As far as you have reported, you can hear them only. We have never changed any utility suppliers.

This agency is horrible, and the employees are all very rude and they never help with queries. Also they have been very dodgy with information about landlord, nothing is transparent. They are so great they are refusing to give us our deposit back for the property we rented from them and when we rented from them they hid the holes in the floor so we cannot see it until after we rent the place. Don't ever use them if you don't want to deal with unprofessional peopleNegativeProfessionalism

Hello Loredana, Your deposit is held with mydeposits protection scheme. By law we do not hold the deposit. Any dispute over the deposit is handled by them. We did not hide anything from you and you did not submit any complaints while living there.

Avoid. Try to set you up using an affiliate (Homeshift) for bills which was a nightmare and have had a 40% rise in broadband cost after a few months. As soon as you move in they stop caring about you. Worst rental experience in 14 years in london. They will try to get you to leave a good review very early on. Give it two months then make your mind up.

I am sorry you have had a bad experience with your utility bills. However, your name does not exist on our system, and you have not actually complained directly to us. We don't know who you are.

We purchased our first property with Northwood's West Norwood branch and our experience with the agency could not have been better. Duncan was incredibly responsive and helpful, even during the inevitable administrative difficulties of buying a property, and we genuinely don't think we would have got it done without him! Would highly, highly recommend.

We were very happy with the service and response time. Julie helped us find a home in just one day, which was fantastic. Communication with her was excellent, she was extremely polite, responsive, and helpful throughout the process. We would definitely recommend her services.

I have had a fantastic experience selling my property with Duncan at Northwood. My property sold after the second viewing and Duncan made the process very easy and contacted me every step of the way through the process. I highly recommend using Northwood to sell your property.

I have used Northwood West Norwood twice now to purchase a flat in East Dulwich and now a house. Duncan was, friendly, responsive and helpful. He has a lot of knowledge and helped guide the transaction to a positive end. I can recommend Northwoods West Norwood.

A year after renting this property, there have been a few issues as any property would have. I am very grateful to Julie Cahill for her professionalism and support in sorting out all the issues. Furthermore, she goes above and beyond to ensure that tenants' needs are met. It is her approach that helps retain tenants, and it also provides them with equal responsibilities in regard to care of the property. Thank YOU, Julie! The first phone conversation gave me the impression that Arjan understands the lettings market and his clients' needs. I found his openness, professionalism and efficiency very impressive and honest. I struggled for more than a month to find a property to rent. The other estate agent were all for a bidding war instead of a first-come, first-serve policy. Finally, I did not have to go through all that hassle with Arjan and Northwood and was able to rent the place in a week. He delivers high-quality customer service, and I gladly recommend him!

This agency is superb! The letting negotiator really handle everything well. Especially the agent that is working with me: Mr Arjan Veseli. Everything went smoothly and I have no problem handling all the documents. He responded really fast as well! It's such an amazing experience.

Selling our first home during lock down could have been a tall order, but Duncan helped drum up interest and arranged viewings with minimal interference to us. He set realistic expectations and was very responsive to all our questions. His input and guidance meant we got a quick sale at a price we were happy with and the whole process ran smoothly.

Northwood was recommended to us by our neighbour who sold with them. Duncan helped us successfully sell our leasehold flat and I was particularly grateful for his reassurance and support along the way. He was always available for a chat and offered helpful and pragmatic advice when I needed to talk through some aspects of the sale. Highly recommended!
