I have used Douglas Allen Company to sell my property in East London and have received great service, fantastic care. I have also been supported in trying to buy a property from a private seller where I needed a lot of help and advice even though it was not part of their staff's expected job requirement.
Both agents who dealt with my case presented a very 'can do' attitude; Mr Lindberg skilfully found a buyer of my house and prepared the process of purchase to go smoothly and in a controlled way; solicitors, mortgage company, insurance - all was prepared for me in no time.
However, since my purchase started going wrong I have received an extreme amount of help from Ms Natasha Mercie who coordinated the situation which was truly unpleasant for me and my buyer. This lady presented excellent skills of communication, ability to manage dead lines to make the sell of my house still feasible, in tact business behavior and a lot of common sense. Moreover, she appeared to be a human being who had a lot of sympathy to my hopeless situation and yet enough intelligence and creativity to suggest the possible solutions to me. With this all great help, our house was eventually sold.
Overall, thank to Douglas Allen, I have succeed in selling the house for the price I was very happy with, I am in a position of buying a house that I wished for and even more - I know where to come for help if I ever again need to buy or sell a property in the future. I only hope those two people will still work there and then.
I wish Natasha and Freddy the very best future and I hope they will achieve a lot in their employment.
Thank you

We bought a house through Douglas Allen
Everything was gone through smoothly. It could be completed within 8 weeks. We didn't face any problems or delays during purchasing process. Staff are very help. We will definitely go back to them.
Thanks
Thandar & Monty...

I began the sales process with Douglas Allen and the first thing they did was cancel the first appointment after we'd already taken time off work to wait in for them. We should have stopped right then. Instead we gave them another chance. Then they ...

I wish ‘Hannah’ had entered more specific details about her issues so these could be properly investigated. At the moment I have no way of knowing which properties or which branch she is referring to.
As an estate agent we would not earn any commission until a property is sold so it would make no sense to prevent ‘Hannah’ from offering on properties or being in frequent communication with her. I would ask her to contact our Client Liaison Department so that we may ...
