Had wrong epc certificate published on rightmove, they were rude, did not acknowledge emails and ignored calls. Would stay well clear of them.

As a company we instructed 2 local agents to market a potentially tricky older style property close to the town centre. Oliver James quickly introduced a number of viewers and following a visit to their office which clearly demonstrated an excellent knowledge of both market conditions and local... Read Full Review

David Wilkins and another male member of staff I spoke to on the phone were without doubt the rudest, most unprofessional estate agents I have ever had the displeasure of working with. My personal dispute with David had been 'discussed' in the office and I was met with insults and a rude attitude... Read Full Review

15 Apr 2015The above review is not from a current vendor. It is in fact from a tenant of a property that we sold 2 years ago. Her complaint is that there is a photo currently displayed of the property when she...

David Wilkins is the most unprofessional estate agent I have ever encountered. He is unreliable and outright rude. I feel sorry for anyone letting a property through this joke of a man/business. Additionally we found the property infested with rats, the garden overgrown, the furniture broken and... Read Full Review
David Wilkins was extremely slow to complete basic procedures, took excessive time off work, and didn\'t get back to me on my lease offer for weeks. He has shouted at me over the phone, used stereotypes to describe me when talking to my housemate and was also extremely rude when he attended a house inspection at the property. This man should not have a job.
Price negotiation occurred without help or advice from oliver james.

David Wilkins is, without doubt, the worst agent I have come across in my 60+ years. My daughter was thinking of selling the house she lives in, but it is owned by trusts and requires the trusts to agree any contract. He has been informed of this 3 times by email, but has not even had the common... Read Full Review

Quick enquiry regarding the property, received complete disinterest and general rudeness. Asked if the landlord would accept pets. Answer was I don't know, give me your number, will call back. Never called back. Another property my partner enquired about, entirely independently to my enquiry,... Read Full Review
Be friendly and helpful, instead of complete arses.

One particular senior member of staff was extremely rude and aggressive when we dealt with him regarding a potential sale. Previous offers we put forward were not passed on. We felt very pushed to make a decision and when we decided against the sale ( Due to very inconsistent and flaky information ... Read Full Review
The agent could have been polite and respectful honest and helpful.
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.
