The team at Porter Glenny were professional and competent at all times. Jonathan Finbow gave support from the very beginning and all through the marketing and sales process, and dealt with my queries promptly and efficiently. Maureen, based in the office, was reliable and always kept her word. Leading up to "exchange of contracts" when the pressure was on, prompt and invaluable action and support was also provided by Jeff Vedgen who kept me informed right up to the moment contracts were exchanged. I have no hesitation in recommending Porter Glenny Estate Agents at Faircross Parade, Barking.
Acceptable.

I have just sold my house in Barking while living abroad. I originally bought my house from Porter Glenny some years earlier and was very happy with their service at that time, so thought I would ask them to sell it also. I also decided to use them as I saw they had some very good reviews online,... Read Full Review

I recently purchased my first house, being sold through Porter Glenny and I have to say, I was very impressed. Alex from Barking was very helpful and kept me updated as far as he was able and was an excellent communicator between myself and the vendor. When I come to move (hopefully not for a few...

As a buyer I found their staff highly efficient, professional and helpful throughout the process. They liaised with my solicitor and ensured a timely quick purchase well before my April 1st deadline.

We bought our first flat through Porter Glenny in late 2015/early 2016. It is a very tough market for first time buyers, and it was not the most straightforward of purchases - the flat is share of freehold so more complicated on the legal side. Alex was very helpful throughout and was able to get... Read Full Review

This was the second time we had used Porter Glenny Barking Branch to sell a property and I cannot recommend them highly enough. Despite the uniqueness (and awkwardness) of the latest property, they persevered with great professionalism and lived the ups and the downs with us. Always polite and good ... Read Full Review

Porter Glenny don't seem to respect the buyer at all; I've just had a very rude introduction to the cut-throat nature of Porter Glenny's behaviour with regards to the 'first to survey' procedure they have. The lady I spoke to said that Porter Glenny don't bother to ring potential buyers because it ... Read Full Review

I agree with most of the reviewers, I was purchasing a 2 bedroom flat at St Aidan's court listed by these agents, the property instantly caught my attention as it was priced well below the market price, I read their advert on zoopla and right move. I viewed the apartment, I was told I cannot... Read Full Review

I've arranged a viewing with this agent 3 weeks ago (10/10/2013). Apparently their guy came 15 min late. He showed the property and I liked it and put down the deposit for credit reference check. By that time I was advised credit reference takes 2/3 days and as soon as they get good reference from ... Read Full Review
