We would highly recommend Allan Cooke Estate Agents. They guided us through what was a particularly challenging house sale with professionalism, patience and genuine commitment. Jeremy Cookes persistence and calm approach made all the difference whenever difficulties arose. If youre looking for an estate agent who truly goes above and beyond, especially when the pressure is on, we wouldnt hesitate to recommend Allan Cooke Estate Agents.

Rented a property from this unprofessional company, don't reply to emails, very rude and ignorant. The flat was filthy and had severe damp. They did nothing about it. I gladly paid 600 to move out and then they made me do my own viewings and took extra money from my deposit which they shouldn't have. I was warned but didn't listen. Don't get robbed by this company.

Excellent service from a very professional and knowledgeable estate agent day one. Jeremy always went out of his way to help my father who had lost his speech from a stroke, he called at my fathers house in person to explain anything, nothing was too much trouble. Handle the sale very well with a great team behind him. After sales service was fantastic and managed the sale progression through very well. You would struggle to find a service better than this. Highly recommend.
