		<description><![CDATA[I recently purchased a property in Limehouse from Alex Neil estate agents. Throughout the entire process in particular the sales manager Tony Sandiford was extremely helpful and professional. My experience with estate agents in the past hadnt been a positive one, so I am pleased to say that Alex Neil restored my faith in them. On numerous occasions I received calls from Tony to update me on the progress, I didnt find myself constantly calling like I did in the past with other agents. I am extremely meticulous and making a big decision such as buying a property Tony and I built up a trusting rapport, his attention to detail and finding me the dream property using his knowledge and understanding of what I wanted was first class. Once again a huge thank you to Tony and to his team, you are a real asset to Alex Neil. Should I require anymore assistance in the future, you will be my first port of call.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[I have dealt with Alex Neil over a number of years in particular the Doclands Office.  They have handled my property with complete professionalism and nothing is ever too much to ask.  They have always gone above and beyond their duty to make sure everything runs smoothly.  It is so refreshing lately to receive such level of service and the nice thing about Alex Neil they have long standing staff so you are always given that personal service.

		<description><![CDATA[I have just sold my property via Alex Neil Surrey Quays office and i have been very impressed with the level of service i have received.

Having let my flat through Alex Neil for last 4 years, i have always had a smooth transaction between tenancies and i have found their staff helpful. The branch manager of the office, Stan Tonchev has offered me excellent advice and level of service.

I would strongly recommend Alex Neil's services hope we can have dealings again in the future.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[What a smashing company. I brought my flat through Alex Neil in 2003 &amp; I used them to sell my flat too. Tony and Jon helped me sell my flat were great; straightforward and gave good advice. The sale of my flat fell though in 2008 and testament to the company and the people is that Tony was there in 2011 and remembered all my details.
Luckily in 2011 my buyer was great and Tony kept the process nice and simple. Would recommend Alex Neil and the team to everyone.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[From a sellers point of view I found Alex Neil to be very good on communication; they were helpful, clear, friendly, and genuinely interested in selling my property. I received regular updates, and was not left in the dark or ignored at any time. Their attitude was sincere - miles away from the arrogance adapted by many others. 
It was a pleasure to do business with them.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[In my experience as a Property Investor, Alex Neil have been a very professional Estate Agent on the Isle of Dogs, and I have been more than happy to continue to use their excellent and professioNal services in both the lettings and sales departments over the past 15 years.

Having first purchased properties in the mid 1990's in Docklands, I quickly passed them on to the Alex Neil Lettings Department to manage my Buy to Let Properties. I now have 6 in total on the Island.

Each and every property has consistently been managed and let with ease, with minimal void periods, something I now know would not have been possible without Alex Neil. I had purchased other properties in the area with others but as soon as possible I transferred the Letting responsibility to Alex Neil because of their proven track record with my earlier properties.

I would recommend them without doubt. there has been a consistent professional management team in place throughout this whole period at Alex Neil and the new staff recruited there over the years have also been excellent, which has resulted in a fuss free, seamless service to me, the Client.... 

A service like this, for such a long and sustained period of time, in this industry, is unique and difficult to find in this day and age.

Alex Neil are also keen to go that one step further, to advise on any maintenance or work to enhance and improve the rental potential, recommended contractors to use, good management of tenant / landlord relationship, and that all important personal service which is so lacking in this Sector.

Choose Alex Neil, you will not be disappointed.

		<description><![CDATA[I recently rented a property in Mile End through Alex Neil and was extremely impressed with Greg the Branch Manager, he was always professional, extremely friendly, helpful and always answers queries promptly and efficiently. I absolutely wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and therefore Alex Neil to my friends. Greg has assisted my Fiance and I to rent in a very short timeline and under very stressful circumstances for us. However, Greg dealt with us in a very professional and efficient way that we immediately felt at ease and felt that we could put our trust in him. Greg is an asset to the Alex Neil team.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[I would have no hesitation in recommending Alex Neil. We have worked with Anthony for more than ten years and have found him to be very hard working, straight, and professionanal - much the best Docklands agency. I have tried, alongside Alex Neil other local agents and I am not at all impressed. They either give inflated values to get your business, or just do not work at the situation like Anthony and his team. Trudie Cole has her paperwork really under control and they are a terrific team. We have also found that Anthony tries to find decent calibre tenants so that we do not suffer damage or loss. I cannot recommend them highly enough.<br />This person would use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[I have been a tenant for over 3 years now, they dont have any standard policy in terms of contract renewals. When i highlighted other properties where they are not charging tenant for renewal fees, their agents were absolutely rude. I would suggest tenants to review the contracts (when getting renewed) thoroughly. As they add these renewal payment clause without your knowledge and they wont highlight any changes..

For those who are renewing or signing a new contract, make sure u NOTE the following:
1. Watch out for the break clause
2. Watch out for renewal clause, they crazyly charge about £150+VAT and haggle you during renewal
3. They have a clause (typically 5.2) wherein you have to pay for all repairs of the property, though landlord/agent is suppose to manage or pay for repairs
4. They have no exclusions for regular ware and tare and would haggle you when leaving the property
5. Contract is one sided for asking tenant to pay for any charges (for breach of agreement) but no clause covering tenant. Logically it should be both sided whoever breaks the contract

		<description><![CDATA[I agree with comments below and cant believe they get away with it - After discovering my deposit was NOT registered after 3 years as a tenant and after the problems I had getting it returned I checked up on this company (whose company name is Hillgate Investments Ltd) on duedil.co.uk and discovered that they are not what they seem 

They claim to be successful agents - but really they are INSOLVENT and owe over £700k - This is not hearsay - its a matter of public record. 

This may explain their reluctance to discuss issues concerning money and why when you complain they are so evasive and rude and why the turnover of staff is so frequent. 

Before you use them - check them out. They arent accredited as they claim and in fact I now know that ALL agents have to be members of the Ombudsman. Avoid or regret at leisure. 

We have now rented through Holland Properties - what a refreshing change.<br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[Agree with all the negative comments. Im a landlord and will never deal with Alex Neils again.  When my tenant moved out and there was a dispute over a broken fixture, Alex Neils assured me they would deal with the ombudsman regarding the deposit which they had advised they had lodged with the DPS.  After a lot of chasing and frustration I then contacted the DPS directly who said the deposit had NEVER BEEN LODGED WITH THEM!!!  Alex Neils wove a completely misleading tale to both myself and the tenant and when contacted the Management themselves were just as duplicitous, think the staff were simply following the management example.  They are unprofessional to the point of actually being illegal.  Stay well well clear.<br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[I arranged for a viewing at a property via their Surrey Quays branch, I am very interested in the property and have gone through arranging for a mortgage based on this property buy Reiss who I booked an appointment with didn't show up for the viewing. He left me standing in the freezing cold rain for 30 minutes with no response to my calls or advance warning that he wasn't able to make it.

Bad business. 

I will try to contact the owner of the property to see if he will go with another estate agent so I can start again.<br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[Major problems and sacked due to continued appalling service.

They arranged for their contractors to do work which was either done so badly no-one noticed, or was never done at all. Interestingly, the insist you write a cheque directly to the contractor, presumably in the hope that it means they are not then responsible for the work.

Mid year inspection of appalling quality and given they pointed out windows which dont even exist, In my opinion, I doubt they even visited the property to carry it out. When I asked to speak to the office manager about it, it turns out it was the manager who produced it!

They did everything they can to make me use their contractors, despite me having my own contractors under a maintenance contract.

They claimed their staff dont carry mobile phones hence they cant meet my contractor to let them in property even though its only 400 metres from their office. After some probing, turns out that they have moved the management of my property to the Mile End office without telling me, under the management of a team member who has never been to my property. 

All in all spent so much time managing the agents felt I might as well not have them.
 
An appalling experience - landlords beware!<br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

		<description><![CDATA[Rudest and most unprofessional people I have ever dealt with. Avoid at all costs. It is no surprise that individuals who work in Alex Neil work there because they cannot obtain jobs elsewhere with reputable estate agents. Have a look at their unprofessional responses to the others comments and decide for yourself. Tip for Alex Neil, don't bother responding to this... instead, spend some time thinking about how you can contribute more positively to the world. <br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>

This are the most unprofessional and rude agents I have ever dealt with. I used them 5-6 years ago and they were excellent - especially Chris who has since left. The new Manager is a man called David Hatch. He is either the most arrogant man on earth or simple. Getting money from the deposit was near impossible so the tenants chased ME. Alex Neil just weren't interested and their complaints handling is non existent. I have since let though Oliver Jaques who have been excellent - my story about Alex Neil did not seem to surprise them and it is obviously well known in the area. Frankly, they are expensive, the staff change every week, they make promises they dont keep, and as soon as they have the fee, they lose interest.

Items went missing from the flat, the checkout list was laughable (things like actually turning electronic items on to check that they work never happened, for example), one of the key jobs of an agent (to ensure utilities were settled, etc) simply was not done. Do not use them. They are laughable, and I would never, ever use them again. <br />This person would not use Alex Neil again.]]></description></item><item>
