John D Wood and Co Sales Weybridge reviews

I had the pleasure to deal with Joshua Gultig, lettings negotiator. He was very professional, polite, kept us informed, called me back the next day with answers to the questions that arose during the viewing. He had very good knowledge about the property and the area. He was also very kind, offered us an umbrella while we waited for the viewing, although the wait was only a couple of minutes. Overall an outstanding experience compared to all the other agents I have dealt with.

I began renting my flat with John D

I began renting my flat with John D. Wood, Fulham Road, in 2010. I live in Edinburgh, so it was important for me to have good management and choice of tenants. in both these area they have been exceptional. They dealt promptly with any issues. in particular the management of Eduard Popa and Stephen English have been first class. I decided to sell the flat this April. Huw Jones has been in charge, and once again his service has been first class. A number of people looked at the flat, I selected a buyer, and we conclude next week. My compliments to the professionalism I received which ensured a very satisfactory outcome.

I'd like to thank the whole Weybridge Office, but in particular Tom Barham for the help and assistance in our recent house purchase. Always efficient in arranging additional viewings, access for tradespeople, and in general making the buying process as simple as possible. If I were looking to sell they would be top of the list based on the fantastic service we received as a buyer. Highly Recommended!

Great experience with James Mander

I’ve been renting with John D Wood for about two years now, and it has been a great experience. We recently had a slightly unsettled handover when our previous property manager left, but our new property manager, James Mander, has been absolutely fantastic always quick to help and resolving any issues as soon as possible.

JDW Earl’s Court (Fee Henderson)

I recently purchased a property marketed by JDW Earl’s Court and managed by Fee Henderson. Fee was v professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. She made the entire process smooth and stress-free (as much as it could be), providing clear communication at every step. Would recommend!

DO NOT GO WITH THEM

DO NOT GO WITH THEM. Poor communication from John D Wood. We wanted to purchase a property sold through them but their behaviour put us off. Holly from the Dulwich Branch was rude, unprofessional and not transparent in regards to process.

From the buyer perspective I cannot praise enough this branch. The team and especially Dannielle helped us so much through the buying process. Always available to us through multiple viewings, very efficient and so helpful. They made sure we felt comfortable with the whole transaction from the beginning to end. Thank you

Radyah Sultana, so rude and unprofessional

Radyah Sultana at Docklands & City office, who is in charge of the paperwork, was so rude, unprofessional, dishonest and impatient. I have received passive-aggressive threats from her and had a really bad experience.We worked smoothly with Egle and David, and paid the deposit very early.However, the contract was ready only 3 days before moving in, even though all the reference checks were ready two weeks ago!I understand that Radyah was sick for a few days, but I am unhappy that she made an excuse and LIED that the reference checks were just done yesterday. Now because of her inefficiency, I have to be efficient.Well, I am a customer, and she is the god.

AVOID JDW AT ALL COSTS

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not subject yourself to the JDW Weybridge office if you can avoid it - they have provided easily the worst service we have ever experienced. We have been renting for 3 months in a JDW managed house. There are multiple material ongoing issues from a leaking roof to broken heating and the agent does not do anything about - for months. We have a 1 year old child who is suffering constant sickness now. They have lied to us about repair parts being ordered and have not held the landlord accountable for fixing anything. Jazz Dillon is of particular incompetence. She has promised us a call with senior management and of course, radio silence.

Customer Service on Permanent Lunch Break

I’ve called multiple times regarding a property and was repeatedly told I’d receive a call back either by end of day or the next working day. This has never happened. I even tried submitting an enquiry through Rightmove, but nothing would go through. It’s honestly ridiculous, either don’t promise to call back, or live up to the expectations you’ve set yourself. The lack of basic communication is highly unprofessional and very disappointing.

I had an excellent experience working with Tushar at the Docklands office. He assisted me with the sale of my property. I found him to be knowledgeable, approachable, and ensured the process was significantly more efficient. I greatly appreciate his support and would highly recommend his services.

From start to finish with seeking a rental property, Amanda and Anna were so helpful in guiding me through the process so everything ran smoothly up to when I moved in. Even the Landlord was present then to show me all about the appliances. I cannot commend John D Wood highly enough as regards letting properties to a tenant such as myself.

John D Wood in Weybridge have been absolutely excellent at assisting in our property hunt - from the early days when we were just learning about the area, right through to the purchase of the actual property. In particular, can highly recommend Tom Barham - really knowledgeable, great client service and really nice too. Highly recommend. Thanks John D Wood.

We were delighted with the exceptional service received. They sold our house and we purchased our new property through them in two months. Everyone in the office was highly professional, efficient and very approachable on every issue. Thomas, Sally and Danielle were charming and nothing was too much trouble. We are very happy clients.

I would not hesitate to recommend John D Wood & Co. More specifically, Thomas Barham was a pleasure to deal with and he always went the extra mile for us. He kept us fully informed throughout and he did everything he could to ensure the whole buying process went as well as it could.

DO NOT RENT WITH JOHN D WOOD UNLESS YOU LOVE STRESS 6 months of hell. No ventilation, health hazard.

They are the worst letting agent we’ve ever dealt with, do not rent or buy with this company, complete incompetence at all levels of management. They will cost you money, time, stress & potentially your health, it is not worth it! When we moved out we also recieved our deposit back in full just for clarity. (Though it took much longer than it should have) When we moved in we discovered the flat had no ventilation in the bathroom (which is a legal requirement under Homes for Habitability Act 2018 and does not comply with building regulations 2010) no windows or extractor fan, just a fan heater covering a hole where the extractor should be. We raised this and a few other repair issues. In the entire 6 months we lived there (we were evicted due to the landlord wanting to sell - through another agency as he clearly is not happy with John D Woods' service.) they fixed 1 issue.. the washing machine-the least urgent. We spent our entire 6 months there constantly stressed trying to sort this and other issues with J D Wood but they did absolutely nothing. We had only one set of keys between us for the first 8 days. The shower leaked a huge puddle onto the floor every time we showered. We didn’t have all the needed information for our move in. Not given the location of the bins or the meter readings locations. Then given a wrong location for bins and told we shouldn’t need to take meter readings.. We made an official complaint on 6th December. We (albeit too late) contacted the council & they came to visit, they were horrified. They drew up a report and submitted a preliminary works order for works to be carried out; mentioning the damp and mould. We only didn’t contact the council sooner because we hoped J D Wood would fix these issues, what fools we were. Their constant stalling tactics, asking us for photos, claiming they’re still waiting on the landlord to approve the works, only to find the manager George said the landlord said he’d 'already approved several of the works (albeit 4 months in) and why hadn’t they been done?' We had to pay 6 months rent up front so cash flow to sort the repairs was not the issue. We'd sent emails to contractors and then heard nothing from J D Wood. Eventually when a new contractor came out to the property he gave a quote to them for around £4000. The bathroom and kitchen are internal without any windows or extractors for ventilation. This contractor, planned to knock out through the building to put in a ventilation shaft, but did not explore the hole in the wall we had previously sent videos of to J D Wood. we explained all we thought had to be done was replace the fan heater on the wall with an extract unit as the ventilation shaft was already there. J D Wood claimed they needed to get permission from the freehold owner for wider works, however this isn't true as they could simply replace the fan heater with an extractor. hence no building works and £200. No one from J D Wood ever came to look at the vent until finally the area manager came (after our eviction) with his preferred contractor who agreed simply an extractor unit would work & cost no more than £200. They fully ignored our emails when they couldn’t be bothered to do something. The Ombudsman also awarded us £300 from John D Wood for their negligence. I’m sure they’ll to reply with their copy and paste message asking us to email the details but I’ve included most here so if you’re reading this 'John D Wood Person' don’t bother. If this review saves even one person from the renting hell we suffered with them then it’s worth the time writing it. This is the most incompetent group of people at their jobs. We are so happy we will never have to deal with any of these people again. Already the new management at our new rental have been infinitely more helpful and proactive. Also I never leave reviews and we want to never think about this again but I felt this review was important, I would not wish this stress on anyone.

Tom Barham at John D. Wood in Weybridge has been a pleasure to deal with through what has been a demanding and occasionally complex process, managing both our property sale and new purchase. Patient, calm, assured and savvy - really impressive overall. Highly recommended - we wish him every success in future.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Absolutely abysmal property and tenant management experience. After an inventory check that showed that all furniture items were intact, JD Wood came back 5 months later to essentially accuse us of moving some of the furniture. Prior to this, while we were still in the flat, we had an issue with the fuse that cut power to the fridge and half the flat. We emailed, stressing that many items were at the risk of spoilage but received no support/response. The experience started alright but went severely downhill with time. Would not recommend.

DON'T RENT FROM THEM

I moved into the apartment only to find countless issues, no hot water, an unmentioned carpet moth infestation, broken doors, and more. On top of that, dealing with the property manager, Razvan Boerean, was a nightmare due to his passive-aggressive attitude whenever I requested repairs. Over the course of a year, the agency changed property managers three times, making communication and accountability even worse. When I moved out, they made absurd claims to unfairly deduct from my deposit. Some of these claims mysteriously disappeared when I asked for further evidence. The property manager even hinted that if I chose to raise a third-party dispute, they would inflate the charges, such as replacing the entire balcony door, yet this was never mentioned again in the dispute process. As an international student, I felt like an easy target for this agency to exploit, especially when it came to unfair deposit deductions. Thankfully, I didn’t fall for their intimidation tactics and went through the dispute resolution process. In the end, the agency was awarded only 1/8 of what they originally demanded. The entire experience, from moving in to moving out, was a nightmare. No matter how good the rent may seem, it’s simply not worth it. If you're an international student, be extra cautious, this agency will try to take advantage of you. I strongly advise against renting from them.
