We had a couple bad experiences with our first agent who showed us around the property and later came back for checks, Linda was rude, confrontational, condescending and bossy. ... Read Full Review

Never use John German, West Bridgford to sell your property. This estate agency pushed me to sell my house for a very low price and I ended up selling my detached 3 bed house in compton acers, West Bridgford for 252,500/-, when the actual price was at least 270,000/- to 280,000/- in March 2016. ...

avoid at all costs. These are a TERRIBLE estate agents. The staff (most, not all) are rude. We have had a broken gutter for a year and a half AND a leaking roof for 3 years (although it was partially fixed). It took us 6 months for them to sort out the roof with the landlord AND they lied about ... Read Full Review
