I recently had to sell my parents house and had 4 agents come out to value the property. Theo stood out from the rest with his professionalism and expertise of everything in the local area and we have viewings booked in prior to going to market! The process so far has been seamless and satisfying to say the least ????... Read more

Douglas Allen were amazing with helping us sell our house. We were on the market for a little while with someone else when we reached out to them; Liam, Jack, Denise and the team really made the process seamless from correct valuations, using the online portal for updates and buyers positions etc (really nice touch). Just a really great team and Jack was especially good and keeping us up to date and in the loop of what was going on every step of the way.!

Superb job done!
Ian, Tanya, Luke and other team colleagues at Douglas Allen Epping were brilliant in helping us sell our flat, which was completed last week. We have used Douglas Allen for buying/selling of property for the past ten or more years and the reason why is because of the outstanding professional, knowledgeable and friendly service they have provided and continue to do, which is great! Ian and Tanya kept us informed all the way during the process of selling the flat. They had our trust and confidence in them every step of the way. Always kind and friendly, reassuring us things would work out, having a great sense of humour, being patient with our queries and extremely helpful. Cannot thank Ian, Tanya and team enough for seeing us through to the end of the process. Would also like to thank Liam and Jack for the initial set up, but it was Ian and Tanya who got us through to the wonderful end result of completion and they have our utmost gratitude, thanks and confidence in them, and would not hesitate for a second to use them again if need be and to highly recommend them/Douglas Allen Epping.

So up until now I had a pretty poor opinion of Estate Agents. Past experiences that had left a bad taste in my mouth.

Ian made me feel comfortable right from the start. Listening to my requirements and doing his upmost to find it for me. He was always punctual, friendly and professional.
Making the arduous chore of finding a new home just that bit less painful.

Great customer service. Initially, we had doubts engaging Douglas Allen due to a negative past experience. But we were so pleasantly surprised when we met and got to know Jack when undertaking our property search.
Jack is very professional, he took the time to listen to the needs of the family and therefore was able to identify the right properties. Jack is knowledgeable about the properties and areas we looked at, which was very helpful to us as some of the areas we visited were new to us.
Did his job with grace and humility - never pushy and nothing was too much of a problem - we tested his patience a few times! Jack was so good at knowing what we would like, it made things so easy and meant we did not have wasted journeys (handy when with children and elderly relative in tow) - we really didn’t want to deal with anyone else.
We would recommend Jack to anyone undertaking a property search that wants their agent to understand their needs, is flexible, honest, realistic and patient.... Read more

Jack Spittlehouse at Douglas Allen (Epping) has been so helpful in dealing with the sale of my property and onward house search. He has been so proactive in getting house views set up, and was always on-hand to offer advice when it came to considering my options. I genuinely feel like he had my best interests in mind when lining up potential properties, and showed genuine understanding when I faced setbacks in making progress, which I think makes him stand out from the crowd. He's always so responsive when I call or email with queries, and this is also true of others I come into contact with at Douglas Allen - Lisa in particular. I feel I have been kept fully informed at every stage of the sale of my house and I have full trust in Jack to see it through to completion. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Jack and all at Douglas Allen to anyone looking to move house.... Read more

We have a number of people we know that have now sold their properties through him and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him and the team to anyone looking for an honest, hard working partnership to enable them to sell their property....

Very professional service by the Epping branch, Liam, Lisa and Jack were all extremely knowledgeable and seemed to work tirelessly. Communication was brilliant and there was always somebody available to give advice and their opinions were always honest. I’d recommend to others or use again in the future.
Thanks... Read more

Although DA didn’t sell our house in the end, their service was fantastic. Manager Liam was enthusiastic, reassuring and happy to be contacted at any time if we had a query. Jack & Lisa who were dealing with the sale both showed genuine interest in selling the property and made sure they knew about the house so they were able to pass this on to potential purchasers. Their virtual tour and photos are amazing and all done with minimum fuss. I would definitely recommend using this agent.... Read more

We dealt with Jack at DA, Epping for the purchase of our new home. From the very first meeting at the viewing, Jack has been absolutely first class. He was honest, polite and diligent. Jack navigated the various typical ‘bumps’ that come along with purchasing a house in an exemplary fashion. He is knowledgeable of the local market and a very decent bloke. He is a credit to Douglas Allen and I wouldn’t hesitate to use Jack and DA in the future.... Read more

I was keen to find a property in Epping during 2020, which was proving very challenging!
I rang up all the estate agents in Epping, to get my name down and it was clear to me that Jack Spittlehouse at Douglas Allen, was by far the best with his excellent communication and service throughout.
If you want someone who will be on a constant lookout for properties that will meet your criteria, even before they've gone up on Rightmove and who will respond to your emails and calls immediately, then Jack is your man!
I can't recommend him enough, and he deserves a pay rise in my opinion as he goes above and beyond to help you.
Thank you! :)... Read more

I had an estate agent who overvalued my home, bringing in the wrong viewers. It wasn't selling. They then stoped actively promoting my house and just waited for someone to call. This went on for months. I then swapped to Douglas Allen and had a completely different experience. They got more viewings on the first weekend that the old agency and that was before it even went online. These guys work HARD. They communicate and care. They got my house sold in a matter of weeks. i couldn't recommend them enough.... Read more

If you are looking for a property In epping or surrounding areas I would highly recommend talking to a lady called Lisa Allen, I spoke to her one Saturday in the epping branch and from that day on she contacted me whenever a new property came on the market, when you are looking for a new property this is extremely helpful.
This was the only estate agent in epping that did this.
She was extremely professional and polite.... Read more

It's easy to knock Estate Agents because we tend to blame them when things go wrong, even though it's not their fault. Shaun and his team have provided us with exemplary service and commitment - not just to securing a buyer (when others could not even achieve this basic requirement!) but to holding our hand through difficulties when they inevitably arose. If you are serious about selling your property, Shaun and his team are in our view best placed to ensure this happens successfully. Thanks to him and his staff for looking after us throughout the process.... Read more

Our house took 1 year and 2 months to complete and we were kept in the dark throughout by Douglas Allen - they were awful at getting back to us and when we did finally get in touch, we were constantly lied to or they made excuses. At one point we weren't even aware that the chain had broken and was being rebuilt!
Mark is the most unprofessional and inept character I've ever had the misfortune of dealing with - Charlotte was just one of his puppets who I felt sorry for as she constantly had to cover for him. Jonjo was actually good at his job and he should be running the show there, not Mark! The 'sales progressor' acted more as a barrier to communication rather than an accelerator. I would never leave a property transaction in their hands - you'll get burnt!
No doubt they'll respond to this blaming solicitors or the builders at the top of the chain - who i'm sure share some of the blame - but this doesn't excuse them from the unprofessional manner by which they conduct their business.
Avoid!... Read more

Not the best of experiences here, although to be fair it was on a difficult property. The intervention of JohnJo added some professionalism to a branch which seemed to lack and in communication skills and the ability to meet the buyers interests over their own. Thankfully we did not have to deal with the manager mark who, to paint a picture, is the kind of guy I would expect to meet on the front of a used car sales lot.... Read more
