About Us
Report
Two years later, following the success of the 1st branch they opened their 2nd in Northumberland Heath, Erith, Kent DA8 3EX. This secured a prominent market position in both South East London and North Kent. The aim of the company was not to become a large corporate but to focus on remaining independent, to strive to exceed your expectations, provide you with a personal service and help you move home whether using our sales or lettings services.
Advice For Sellers
Report
To be successful in finding a buyer it is so very important to choose an agent with care and to prepare your property for the market. Always remember that first impressions really do make a difference! You can get an instant valuation and/or you can arrange for us to attend and carry out a market appraisal.
EPCs
Report
An Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is the product of an energy survey that is carried out by a qualified Domestic Energy Assessor (DEA). The certificate provides two separate ratings to indicate the overall efficiency of the property and the associated CO2 impact. The certificate also includes recommendations on how to improve the overall energy efficiency of the property.
Advice For Buyers
Report
Buying a new home is a big, exciting life event. But please take the time to gather information, consider the financial commitment and think hard about what you can afford. We can recommend a company called L & C Mortgages (details on separate page). It is important to secure an agreement in principle from the chosen lender before starting your search, this way you will know that once you identify the right property, you will be in a perfect position to proceed.Although it may sound obvious, try writing a list of the most important aspects of your new home.

Able Estates were not very able. The only tenant they found on our behalf had a CCJ which was later discovered to be for non-payment of rent and *they asked if they should proceed with this tenant via email*. The profile they sent overall sounded dubious and shouldn't have been sent in the first place as this person wouldn't have passed referencing.

We also did a great deal of leg work in finding tenants and directing them to Able Estates. The interested parties complained about Able Estates being hard to reach and taking too long. In some cases we simply didn't hear anything from Able Estates about next steps. I can say they are good at taking pictures and a video for your property, but not much else.

They will only call you to complain that the pricing is too high and ask you to reduce the price below market. No interest was shown in following up leads that we had to give them. Looking online I am very confused by their high star rating and the number of awards they have received. Able Estates are unable to deliver. Edit: Thanks but the property is already gone at the original asking price with an agent who took less than 1.5 weeks to deliver whereas with Unable nothing materialised after significantly more time.

We've been using Able Estates for a number of years now and continue to be very happy with the service they provide. They are both professional and helpful and all the team members are very responsive in every communication. They have ensured that our experience in letting a property has been stress-free. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them.

Able have had full management of my rented property for the last 8 years. I have an extremely good relationship with the company but in particular Ruth. They respond quickly to any concerns or advise I have and I would certainly recommend their services to others.

Lily was exceptionally helpful to us from the first call to her office through the viewing and all the various emails that were required to complete the formalities She even arranged a second viewing so we could not only view the garden but also to meet the landlord

I have been with Able Estates over 10 years I am very happy with the Company. They are very helpful, reasonably priced. They have managed two properties for all these years. They have also sold one of my property for me. I will recommend the Company to anyone. We hope they will continue to manage my property as well as always. Helen Fung

We have used Able Estates in Northumberland Heath for many years to manage two properties in the area. They take care of the whole process and take the stress out of letting properties as a private landlord. Always friendly and willing to help. Proactive. Would highly recommend.

Critical: Value Landlords are given far too much leeway on what repairs are carried out so inspections are very one sided in favour of Landlords. Don't you dare be late with a rent payment though because all hell will let lose!

Over 15 years we have been renting 10 properties, but we have never experienced such a good service, such a response and such a good management as Able Estates have provided. Every email, every complain or issue was resolved in hours. We have never seen such a professionalism and care towards tenants and landlord. Before we moved into Able Estates property, we didn't have any trust in any agents. Non of them was so good as Able Estates.

I have no words to describe how greatfull and thankful we are for Able Estates. Property was always maintained and looked after. Any issues was fixed in hours. We are moving out today just because we we took step forward and bought the property for ourselves. We are really sad to leave as it was really good and safe to stay with Able Estates. Big thank you! All the best to you, Able Estates! I truly recommend to everyone!

Able Estates misrepresented a property in their advert as freehold when it was in fact leasehold, with a short lease below the marriage value. We were not advised it was a shared ownership property either, these details only came to light after we had paid for and received information back from our searches through our solicitor. Their tactics in trying to get us to sign a contract with them rather than our preferred agent were unscrupulous and we suspected them of unprofessional conduct during negotiations also. I would not recommend this company and I do not appreciate their continuing to send emails after I have unsubscribed.
