Langford Russell reviews

I am delighted to recommend the Langford Russell team in West Wickham. I found their knowledge base, customer care and advice to be outstanding. I had the daunting task of selling my Mother's house which was subject to Probate. Steve Mullins knew exactly what was required and provided the initial valuation to get the process started, even though we had not appointed them. This gave us the confidence to subsequently appoint them. Manager, Steve's experience is first class and his team follow his lead. Throughout our sales journey they kept us informed with details of each appointment and helpful feedback. There was always someone available for queries, insight and reassurance. They took care to match the prospective buyers to our criteria and found us the perfect buyer at the end. Connor did the visits and took time to give us feedback and to understand our property. Lukass was our 'office' contact' and his communication was professional and outstanding at all times. He always had the information that I needed at his fingertips, and returned our calls when he promised to. The administration process and team were thorough and made the legal 'checks and balances' clear and straightforward. Making sure we knew what to expect at each stage. Thank you Steve, Lukass and Connor for a truly excellent, stand out service, provided by a team who work hard and who care. I hope you continue to prosper. Josey A.

We’re incredibly grateful to Langford Russell for their outstanding support, dedication, and professionalism throughout the sale of our property. From start to finish, the team made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and well-managed. A special thank you to Connor and Oliver, who were consistently proactive, communicative, and reassuring. Their hard work behind the scenes, attention to detail, and genuine care made a real difference, we always felt in safe hands. We would thoroughly recommend Langford Russell to anyone looking to sell their home. Their expertise and personal touch set them apart, and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received.

Langford Russell, West Wickham have been fantastic from start to finish. Steve and his team were in constant touch during the whole process of selling our house. They, and in particular Lukas, pulled out all the stops in getting viewings and worked really hard to complete everything as quickly as possible. Moving house is very stressful - but Langford Russell`s professionalism, efficiency and great advice made it all much easier. Very Highly recommended

Fantastic Service - thank you Lukass and Steve Both Lukass and Steve were very helpful throughout our search for our forever home. The communication was excellent along with their knowledge and expertise. Nothing we asked of them was ever too much, including the several visits to one property!! - Many thanks Lukass and Steve we can't wait to move in to our new home.

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!

GRAVESEND OFFICE AWLFUL SERVICE (OR SHOULD WE SAY LACK OF SERVICE) FROM THEM!If we could give them 0 stars we would!Kevin the sales manager was suppose to be valuing our property on Saturday 19/10/2024 at 11am, however even though this date & time was confirmed by email, we got a voicemail asking to change the time, we then got a text stating the original date & time! When we called the office to find out what was going on, no one knew anything about it & then we got a phone call from Kevin on the day of valuation saying he had no idea where that information came from & after taking loads of details from us, he said he would be with us at 11am, if the traffic was ok.25 minutes after the time Kevin was due we got a phone call from the office stating he had broken down!!, cannot understand why he didn’t have the courtesy to call us himself! The office said someone will call us on the Monday to rebook an appointment, this never happened, we did not receive an apology from Kevin & considering he is suppose to be a manager, he should have at least contacted us explaining himself! We have not heard from him or the office again.Absolutely unprofessional & so much negativity even before they crossed our threshold! We would never recommend Acorn following this awful experience!

My fiance has been dealing with our apartment search. Coming into contact with Sinan has been such a blessing. He's been supportive, informative, and helpful from the get go. It's such a good experience, I'd recommend him to anyone I know. From actually keeping in touch, offering advice, answering all our questions and getting those he didn't have immediate answers for, he's been professional. While we don't yet know if we've finally found our new home in the West Wickham area, he's been incredibly supportive and I would like him to know how much we appreciate it.

Disappointing selling experience

I was trying to sell my flat using the Acorn Peckham Estate Agent. I was disappointed in the service. - The flat wasn't valued correctly, delaying the amount of time it was on the market at the right price. This should have been an honest conversation with me up front. I would have welcomed that. - There were lots of system errors initially which again delayed my property being listed.- During the negotiation process I was assured that I would be speaking to the manager of the branch on a weekly basis. This didn't ever happen. - I never felt there was particularly fast feedback on viewings with clear recommendations for how to address for the next viewing.

Very disappointing experience with…

Very disappointing experience with Acorn Estate Agents. As a landlord, I found their management service highly unprofessional, dodgy, manipulative and poorly handled. There were deductions made from my rental income that were not clearly authorised or properly communicated, which caused unnecessary frustration and a serious loss of trust.

Efficient and thoughtful

As a first-time buyer, Mark Sugarman was helpful and made the process a walk in the park.He was professional and followed up as needed to ensure I was at ease and understood each step. Mark was friendly, transparent, and communicative, and I felt fully informed and knew what the next steps were with the mortgage. Each person approaches buying a house differently, but Mark made my experience awesome (the man who lights up the room is what I called him). I felt listened to in every conversation.His thoughtful attitude is much appreciated, and I’ve been very pleased with how smooth the process has been and how quickly! Thank you, Mark and your team in Rainham, Kent.

Internal and external comms need drastic improvement

We bought a property from Acorn / Langford Russell in June 2025 but the internal and external communications are an absolute shambles. We used Nested to sell our house who were amazing, constantly keeping us updated on progress. With Acorn, we were passed from one person to another and never had a specific point of contact. I have to say Nathan was really good and I would have given him an excellent rating (the only reason I'm giving them two stars overall) but everyone else we dealt with was completely clueless. One of the workers kept getting the terms 'exchange' and 'complete' muddled so I kept having to correct her (even though I don't even work in real estate). Because of this error, she panicked our sellers and told them an incorrect completion date that we'd requested, when it was actually the exchange date. Somehow, things went smoothly with the actual exchange and completion. However, I've just had a call from Acorn saying we bought our current property with them in 2021 and are we looking to move / would we be interested in a free valuation? We literally purchased the property from them and moved in two months ago...I called them to correct them and they were surprised and said there must be a problem with their "system" as it says we purchased the property in 2021. The reason I'm writing this review is to be constructive and encourage Acorn Group to offer a much more streamlined service and better training so individual staff members (and customers) know what on earth is going on when they're buying / selling houses.

Worst of the worst

Worst of the worst. Tried to sell me insurance and when I confronted them as this is not required by law , they tried to extort it by making me sign a waiver which creates a different legal basis , when I told that that this too isn't required by law and illegal to enforce, they made everything possible to make the rent hard. In each step I came back just by following the law so in the end they tried to erase my holding deposit and gain money out of a moving date that was days before I even moved in. This is a scam agency

Esther Kerenge has been excellent

I've been very impressed with Esther Kerenge, who took over as my property manager for my rental in London. Since she came on board, she's followed up directly with my tenants to manage the handover of the broadband contract, and she's been proactive about getting my appliance insurance paperwork properly logged with Acorn, including making sure she has direct access to the insurers should anything need handling. We're also working together to keep all the safety certificates up to date and my property folio in good order, especially with the Tenants' Rights legislation that came into force in May 2026.

Typical estate agent just about do a job! Leave you with the mess

Typical estate agent. Do half a job to earn a living. Don't know what's going on pretty much most of the time. Told by kieran & some regional manager sale had been finalised on 2 different occasions to then be told there solicitors are not ready. Avoid the truth at all costs. After sale care what is that! Would not recommend Acorn and estate agent (Kieran)

Stay away from these cowboys

Stay away from these cowboys. Bunch of liars and useless. Had so much trouble at leaving a property I was renting because their new tenant failed to move in to a moldy house. Even after I gave all keys and cleaned house still tried to make me liable for rent & bills. Now after 2.5years I get letters to pay bills that the property was empty. Do yourself a favour and stay away.

Appalling service from Acorn in…

Appalling service from Acorn in Gravesend. My husband and I were the buyers, for a property, that Acorn Gravesend were marketing. My husband and I made an offer, for the property we liked and Acorn informed us that if we wished for our offer to be accepted, by the sellers, then we would need to use Acorn/Langford & Russell as our agents. As we loved the house, we agreed to proceed with this condition. Thereafter we made a second visit, to the house we was buying, and we asked the sellers if this was the case … which they stated was not the case and in fact would of preferred we used Wards (which was already lined up) as they are a lot more efficient etc.

Excellent communication and service!

Very pleased with the service!Big thank you to Mark Sugarman, Kieran Thomas and Rachel Smith for their support with the transaction!I am a first time buyer and when I first called to enquire about viewing the property, I spoke to mark who was very warm, bubbly and friendly. He called me regularly to keep me updated on progress which was appreciated. He made sure I was happy and addressed any concerns/questions I had. When I viewed the property, Kieran Thomas showed me around and answered all my questions really well. He was patient, I didn’t feel rushed at all! Kieran made sure I’d seen everything I wanted to see and had enough information about the property and the area. Also, he was friendly and dropped me from the viewing back to the town centre saving me a 30 min walk.Towards the end of the transaction, Rachel kept me updated via phone and the case management system. She was polite and the notes I’d receive were very useful and kept me well informed. When we had blockers (things holding us up) Rachel would push to get things progressed faster.They all made it as stress free as possible! Excellent customer service

I'd definitely recommend Langford Russell at West Wickham. Lukass and his team from the very start, demonstrated real energy, proactive communications and really good advice on a marketing strategy. They got plenty of serious buyers through the door within days of formal marketing and a number of good offers. The following process, with a long chain was tricky, but Lukass and his team managed it extremely well, with some amazing focus in the days before exchange. A particular strength of Lukass' team is that everyone knows what's going on, so if one of the team is out, another will pick it up seamlessly. All-in-all 10/10, thoroughly recommended.

Dammy was incredible

Dammy was incredible, he was so diligent in making sure that all the T’s were crossed and I’s were dotted to make the sale and purchase progress. He replied to every email, phone call, chased up solicitors, helped me complete legal documents. Without him the sale wouldn’t have gone through and he was far more conscientious than my solicitors in following everything up. I thoroughly recommend Dammy 100%. He is also very upbeat and positive, you really feel he has your back during such a stressful time. Best estate agent ever, he really is fantastic.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend Acorn

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Highly recommend Acorn for selling your property. Arikson Franco was absolutely fantastic at getting a lot of quality viewings - people who were genuinely interested in the property and who could put decent offers. They are definitely ahead of their competitors in the market with the quality of delivering what they promise. They are the best in South East I just can't recommend them enough. Arikson Franco is an absolute Super Star 🌟 Thank you so much for all your help and efforts for getting this across the line.

Part 2 as promised

I guess this is a monthly update to the still on- going 'Joy' of renting via Acorn.I stand by my 1st review and I will stand by this one... I will not remove just because you want me to.I will start by saying there is a property file with Medway Council if you become the future Tenant of this house.. there has been previous contact made for you, I've now vacated for 3 1/2 weeks the house sits empty.Also love nothing more than walking to booked viewings when nobody arrives! Brilliant waste of time. To the one person viewing who walked out after saying to much work.. I salute you sir your correct.No further on for a useful meaningful solution, there have been viewings and offers made to the landlord for said house on market which has been on market since 19th October.. but the offers not accepted even at a higher rate of rental than I paid, guess when someone who doesn't live there still pays rent why would you want to, so easier to refusing future viewings and making myself available until its returned in April.In the same hand I'm certainly not going to be scrubbing anymore damp/mould off walls which is clearly not the 'condensation how you live lines' might be something more to do with water ingress... like the stains on bedroom ceilings not made good... certainly not something that I will sorting. Check the GSC for this house as the recommendations for age of boiler from the proper Gas safety test have clearly been ignored it's not been serviced for many years of which a landlord is legally responsible to service his boiler (it's 30 plus years old!) There was supposed to be a mutual date set for an early end of tenancy, my reasons for early ending were repeated non repairs and false Gas safety certificates.I'm in process of compiling my report to Housing Ombudsman, broken locks will be refitted and the keys for said lock returned in April.I'm sure next update will follow as this is the 'gift' that just keeps giving...

I was very pleased with Acron

I was very pleased with Acron; William who had initiated the property sale, was excellent and was great in his approach and handling at the start. Daniel Langiano, who followed this through, was brilliant as he had a difficult task but persisted and handled the sale with great professionalism and sensitivity. Dan kept us updated through great communication and, at the same time, made sure proper processes were followed. We were grateful for his help to see this through completion

We recently purchased our property Langford Russel in West Wickham. Lukass one of the sale agents really understood what we were looking for and with our budget. They me we found our house Langford Russell took away a lot of stress from us and we’re constantly chasing up our solicitors to complete the sale as soon as possible. Lukass was on hand when ever we needed to ask a question or to pop to our property to do some measuring up. I would highly recommend Langford Russell if you are looking at buying or selling, They really put the customers first

My new Flat 😁

I’ve been in the process of buying a flat, and had numerous challenges along the way. However two agents in particular Kieron and More recently Remmi have been ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND SOO HELPFUL. They’ve been with me every step of the way and made sure there was no issues and if there was any they’d do their utmost best to rectify this for me. Thanks
