Thank you to John Francis Carmarthen and to Martynas personally for his assistance in finding us a home. He has been extremely helpful and it has made the process less stressful.

What a complete joke. I tried to sell my property with them however they played me off against another property exactly the same for a higher sale price. I then agreed to let with them even though I had done this for over 10 years. I am shocked by their total incompetence. They are not even ... Read Full Review

Before I write this review I want to say that John Francis in Narberth sold our property after its first viewing, though that had more to do with the then manager Martins network, than the dynamicism within the branch itself. That aside we found the pre and post sales process wholly unsatisfactory; ... Read Full Review

Avoid! As a landlord I have rented a property for 10 years through a different agent. After being persuaded to rent the property with John Francis, the first tenants I had have not only stolen beds and furniture, ruined carpets, walls and fly tipped in the back garden and stopped paying rent ...

Aberystwyth Office: Would have put 0 stars if I could! Very rude, disrespectful, condescending staff! I have spoken to 4 of them, including the manager, and the only one that was pleasant was the lady who answered my first phone call. The manager was cocky, and refused to even engage in a ...

I know we are battling with coronavirus but even before the outbreak I found the service from JF really disappointing. Communication is poor. They either take days to reply to important emails or just ignore them altogether. When you do get information out of them it is always sketchy. They are ... Read Full Review

I had the house on the market with them for 2 years and not a sniff of an offer. They kept asking me to lower the price which they had valued it in the first place. Plenty of viewings but not a single offer. I eventually went to 99 Home lowered the price by 1500 (which would have been John Francis ... Read Full Review

We were interested in mortgaging a property that this branch had for sale, however they had listed the property as sub standard construction. I rang up the agents to check if sub standard meant non standard and therefore mortgage options were off the table. I live quite far away so didn't want ... Read Full Review
Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
