Another estate agent.Won't be buying via them again, bought a property and their agent kept phoning my solictor. My solicitor then charged me his time. The person from their office who kept phoning my solictor would not stop phoning him even when l told him to stop. Also the rental charges for managing a property are very high. I found someone else who is far more reasonable and actually does minor works without charging me.

Thank you for your feedback which is surprising. A good Estate Agent will keep calling solicitors in order to facilitate the sale. This is what assisted in your successful purchase. Surely the negative feedback should be directed at the party charging you for their time rather than the estate agent whom is not. In regards to the management charges, we don’t claim to be the cheapest agent around, nor are we the most expensive. You get what you pay for in this industry and perhaps you’ll realise that in time. We wish you the best of luck. Thank you

My experience with David Conway has been extremely stressful and disappointing. From the outset, I felt under significant pressure from numerous calls and emails to sign a reservation contract, despite having already paid the reservation fee. I felt placed in a difficult position when I was told that the property would be put back on the market if I did not act immediately, even though my solicitors had raised legitimate concerns about it at the time. During the purchase process, I continued to feel pressured while exercising my rights during the enquiry stages to raise concerns. Even when responses from the other parties were unsatisfactory or delayed, I felt further pressured and intimidated when I was told again that the property would be re-listed. On one occasion, I spoke to one of their agents after exchange and completion dates had been confirmed, and I found their manner rude and unprofessional. I expressed in my communications that I was feeling stressed and anxious, yet I did not notice any change in their approach. Instead, the pressure appeared to continue in a way that heightened my anxiety during what should have been an exciting life milestone. Overall, my dealings with this estate agency left me feeling that their approach was heavy-handed and inconsiderate, resulting in a deeply negative experience. This process caused me significant stress and anxiety, which I find unacceptable.

Firstly, I am very sorry to hear that you felt undue stress during your purchase. That was never our intention. However, having reviewed the records, it is clear that the deadlines you refer to were set by the vendor and her solicitors, not by ourselves. We were obliged to act in line with their instructions. The vendor’s solicitor confirmed on multiple occasions that exchange must take place by 4th August, with completion shortly thereafter, failing which the property would be re-marketed. Your own solicitor also noted that the timetable was one you had put forward, and accordingly asked you to have deposit funds in place. Where additional enquiries were raised, the vendor’s solicitor confirmed that several were not legal requirements and could not justify delaying exchange. The vendor had an onward purchase at risk, which is why she instructed firm deadlines. She also provided an indemnity policy and even carried out roof works, despite her own solicitor confirming these were unnecessary. As the vendor was our client, we had no choice but to pass on her position. I apologise if the way this was conveyed caused you distress. Our role as agent was to communicate the vendor’s instructions and maintain progress to protect the transaction. We did attempt to contact you on numerous occasions, but our calls were not taken or returned, which added to the pressure of managing deadlines. We regret that you felt our communications were forceful; however, they were reflective of the vendor’s position and not intended to intimidate. We note your feedback and will ensure that future communications balance the need to progress matters with greater sensitivity to buyers’ circumstances. We therefore do not agree that our staff acted unprofessionally but accept that the process was stressful for you. On behalf of the firm, I extend our apologies for the anxiety this caused.

Thank you for posting the review to the correct company. If you would kindly remove this review as it is not in relation to service from David Conway & Co Ltd which is a Sales only office and rather David Conway & Son Ltd which is the Lettings company trading as Rainbow Reid. Many thanks

Now don’t try to give clarification because people knows your politics

Hi, sorry that the property was reserved by another party before you had a chance to organise a viewing. We have a studio coming up in the same development if you would be interested?

Dear Adina, I am very sorry to hear this feedback. This is most unusual and not the feedback we tend to receive. I have tried to call you and left you a voicemail. If you would be so kind to contact me directly, I would really appreciate the opportunity to discuss what happened and see if we can resolve and understand your aggrievances. Thank you, James Conway

Dear sellers, these people look for probates or distress sellers and sell to there own people which they receive a lot of money for arranging the cheap sale don’t sell through them, in response by “there people” I mean people you have built up relationships with and over the years have sold them very below market price properties with no concern about anything that lining your pockets

These are completely false and libellous comments. We would suggest that you remove this review immediately, otherwise we will consult our lawyers. It is unsubstantiated and inaccurate. We are also shocked by your 'their people comment' and am intrigued to know what was meant by this. Imty; as explained, many times, we do not get paid by the purchaser, our fee is paid by the seller upon them choosing to accept an offer. The reason our sellers don’t consider your offers is because your offers are too low.
