Having just purchased a home through this agent we would not recommend their services to anyone. Very patronising and unprofessional in every way from start to finish. In comparing their services to that of the agent who sold our previous home Melvin Jacobs finishes as a very very poor second.
I am very glad that our dealings with this agent are finished. We will certainly not be recommending their services.

26 Jun 2018We were marketing the property at offers in excess of £500,000 subject to contract, we had several offers on the property and the current purchaser had a property to sell which was not yet on the market, as opposed to a first time buyer. The executors of this estate, by whom we take our instructions, were informed of the offers and chose the first time buyer. Nevertheless, the price eventually reached £550,000 subject to contract, and the agents should be applauded by their clients and the beneficiaries for achieving £50,000 more than the asking price. The sour grapes comment from the purchaser is understandable in the circumstances.

2 days after viewing property they phone me saying they never heard back from me. Then pushed me to make an offer on property. When I mentioned thinking about putting in offer for x amount, they said 'no, no, no. It's got to be closer to asking price'. And couldn't hang up on me ... Read Full Review

Watch out. My parents had paid a majority of their mortgage paid off; remaining roughly a 100,000 left our house is valued close to a milllion. Since they are quite old and not very good with technology and living abroad they missed a couple of payments. A man called Simon Lancer who works in ... Read Full Review

They have been terrible to deal with. They refused to accurately describe the house in order to get a quick sale. We had some viewings before the property was even online (the prospective buyers had probably paid to get a first look at new properties for sale in the area) after receiving two low ...

12 Oct 2015This review is very misleading. Regarding the 'bedroom' that has been described. It is a loft room that does not confirm to building regulations. It would be against legal agency practice to market ...

Never trust this company! They are not afraid to break the law on behalf of the landlord and LOCK THE TENANT OUT, even though the tenant never once failed to pay the rent or look after the property. They will use physical violence ... 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.
