Called yesterday to enquire about a property just listed. My question was relatively simple: which way does the house or rear garden face? The answer was 'dunno' followed by 'plus, we are only showing it to people in a position to move (which I am), the girl then stated 'we've already booked in 30 viewings so it'll sell. She didn't even ask if I was in a position to go ahead. Very disappointing. Teach some customer service skills!

I would highly recommend Dowen when selling and buying your house especially Michael. From the initially meeting with Trudie, to the last interaction with Michael, they have been brilliant through out. Although it wasn't straight forward (due to unforeseen circumstances outside of their control), Michael went over and above to help remove obstacles, when he didn't need to, kept us constantly up to date and ensured we knew what was going on. I honestly believe we're only here because of Michael, so thank you ever so much!

I've just sold my home with Downs. I initially had Dowen's, Robinson's and Manners & Harrison out to value my home. They all told me the same figure. I decided to go with Dowen's because Trudy's passion for selling homes really came through during her visit. She told me how much of a close team they have and in all honesty I thought it was just part of the sales pitch. However, after having to deal with a very frustrating buyer and a sales process that dragged on for many months (no fault of Dowen's) I got to know the team well.
I spoke to both Michael and Tracy during my sale and both were fantastic and couldn't help enough. It was Andrew that primarily dealt with my sale and I can not praise him highly enough. The amount of calls he's had to repeatedly make to solicitors and my buyer's estate agents, my buyers themselves, the housing development company I'm purchasing from, its probably pushing triple digits.
Nothing was too much trouble for him, he always provided me with updates and he was constantly chasing my sale for me. The whole team we great but Andrew really took it to another level. I cant recommend him and therefore Dowen's more.

My experience with Dowen has been fantastic. I chose them over a rival agency because their strong professionalism stood out from day one. Claire is an absolute asset to the team, she has guided & updated me every step of the way through my house move. Nothing has been too much trouble & she has made the process of selling as stress-free as possible. I highly recommend Dowen & a special thank you to Claire!

I had been with another agent for 5 months and had 2 viewings. I then took the house off the market and quite by accident found myself talking to Trudie about selling as we are relocating, and arranged for her to come to the house. She went through all the options with me and was very friendly and professional. She left my house at 10.45 and within 15 minutes I'd had a viewing arranged for lunchtime.
I then had another viewing booked for a few days time and then at 3pm I had a viewing who made an offer we were pleased with and the sale is going through. Trudie rang me herself after hearing from her friendly and helpful team about the offer to congratulate me. I was so happy with the service I received and couldn't believe that they managed to sell my house within 4 hours. Thank you Dowens and Trudie.

Dowen are fab! John did the valuation - he is really enthusiastic and filled us with confidence that our house would sell. John gave good advice and house was priced realistically and sold very quickly. Sally handled our sale. I always felt confident that I could get in touch with her. I do get very anxious and Sally was always calm and patient. She always phoned back and chased things for us. Thank you, Sally. We are now in a beautiful home in our perfect location.

I cannot recommend Mandy highly enough. She dealt with our sale and purchase in a friendly, supportive , efficient and professional manner. She was always at the end of the phone to answer any queries, no matter how small, and liaised with our solicitor and mortgage broker on our behalf to ensure our sale and purchase went through quickly. John filled us with confidence from the initial meeting and it was he who rang us about the house we ended up buying and which we are now making into our family Home.

I have two properties in the Durham area that are managed by Dowen's. I have always found them to be very attentive and to deal with any issues quickly and efficiently. I particularly like the advice they are happy to give regarding my lettings. I find them very able when finding tenants who are suitable and appropriate for my houses.

Dowen Durham branch sold my house in Oct 2018 after it had been on the market for less than three weeeks. Their service was very professional, efficient and friendly. I must thank Mandy especially as she was always helpful and knowledgeable when I needed information or advice. She kept me up to date on each phase of my sale and made the whole process a more pleasant experience. I have no hesitation in recommending Dowen Durham branch, you'll be dealing with experts!
George Robson
This company was first class in everything it did to help us with the sale of the house. I could understand everything Mandy explained to me and she gave me great advice. The sale was quick and all the correspondence and legal papers were done to my satisfaction. Great Firm and Mandy Pledger a perfect Sales Negotiator

Dawn in lettings has handled the let of one of my properties in the Durham area. There have been a few small jobs that needed doing, glazing and gas certificate etc., and these were handled in an efficient and cheerful manner. There is now a tenant in the house and I look forward to a long and mutually beneficial arrangement. Thanks.

Those of you who know me well know I am a pernickity perfectionist who demands high standards. I would also not be the first to sing anyone's praises if they didn't deserve it. However, Dowens have given exceptional service and after putting the house on the market on Friday night, we have an offer accepted on Tuesday. Every call you make and message you leave is answered or the call returned quickly.
Every question you ask is answered honestly and professionally. They encouraged us to view a property we had dismissed from the website which turned out to be the perfect property. They brought serious buyers through the door within hours, one of the first viewers having their offer accepted. I can't recommend them highly enough, especially John Nicholson for finding the perfect new home and a perfect buyer. I always thought Dowen specialised in auction properties . They don't. Check them out if you want to buy or sell. Faultless.

I would highly recommend Dowens estate agent. We had our complications, but they were patient, hardworking and committed to selling our property and ensuring a pain free experience. The staff are friendly and simply outstanding at their job. Thank you Mandy and John for ensuring we landed our dream home
Mathew Smith
When looking to rent my first property, Dawn was excellent at meeting our every needs. Being transparent about the entire process and making it as easy as possible. With this being the first time I have ever rented, the professionalism shown by Dawn helped ease the stress of the process and we were able to move in quickly. Would highly recommend this estate agent!
Charlie Parkin
Excellent service from beginning to end. Kept in good contact when things seemed to be taking time and was re-assuring and informative throughout. A great team to buy, rent or sell your home through. A nice card welcoming me to my new home when I arrived. Thanks to Sally and the team. All the best. Charlie.
Sue Holness
We received an excellent service from the team at Dowen. They were very contactable and professional. There were lots of ups and downs along the way, having a buyer pull out at the last minute but Mandy in particular was so supportive and reassuring. I would not hesitate to recommend these guys. We are so happy with our new home, so many thanks to the whole team.
Vicky Noxoc
Great service from start to finish. All of the staff were fantastic and all had up to date knowledge of how my sale was going throughout. John gave us great advice as to how to best promote our property - setting a realistic price that we could achieve and also that we were happy to accept. Mandy kept in regular contact throughout and again gave us really good advice when we did receive offers resulting in us achieving our asking price. We sold quickly and effortlessly with thanks to Dowen Estate Agents! 5 stars!!

Her efforts have paid off and we are in our new property in excellent time! We would recommend Mandy for any purchases for the future. Many Thanks
