Weird and unprofessional estate agents. We were looking to buy a house in Alkrington. Over the space of about 7 months, we were getting increasingly desperate for a house and had explained this to them but every time we enquired about a property, they were really unhelpful and either ignored our calls or came up with excuses why we couldn't view it. They made us feel like a nuisance and we actually dreaded ringing them if we liked the look of a house on the Internet and seen it was with them. My husband had to phone about 10 times to enquire about one particular house and was finally told it's a real mess, you wouldn't be interested! We managed to arrange a viewing for only ONE property out of about 10. The agent turned up over half an hour late leaving my elderly mother and myself stood in the rain. He was very cold and unfriendly and hardly said a word the whole time. A couple of days later we tried to put an offer in for that property. We left FOUR messages. No one got back to us. Again, had to beg to speak to someone, eventually got a manager on the phone, who was shockingly blasé and simply said oh it's gone that one, we accepted an offer yesterday. No idea what on earth is going on there but it's weird and extremely unprofessional. Dread to think what a nightmare they'd be if we'd been selling a house!

I'am the Managing Director of McGowan Homes. We have been operating in Middleton Town Centre for 20 years and we have no potential purchaser listed by the above name. I find the comments included in the above as slanderous and outrageous. It is not in our interest to treat potential purchasers with the contempt the above is suggesting, it isn't in our interest, McGowan Homes do all possible to look after its clients, both vendors and purchasers. For a balanced view please read the testimonial page on www.mcgowanhomes.co.uk. Jonathan McGowan Managing Director

We do not have the above named person on our database and consider the above to be a malicious review. McGowan Homes have been serving the Middleton community for 20 years and take a great deal of pride in our customer care. If the above named person would like to discuss this further I would be more than happy to have a meeting in our offices. Jonathan McGowan Managing Director.
