Whybrow & Dodds Limited

I have known Whybrow since 2005 and at Panther Securities PLC have employed their services over the last 5 years - most recently with regard to a particularly challenging department store disposal. Ewan and the team at Whybrow have been very thorough and provided an excellent service especially during a particularly difficult time Nationally resulting in a high number of promising enquiries and a letting to a national occupier. I highly recommend Whybrow for our and your commercial property needs!

I wasn’t going to post this review but after being spammed with emails months after dealing with the company I am. People out there should know when a bad experience has occurred.Terrible experience trying to lease properties with this company. Was kept on a wild goose chase for over 15 weeks trying to make progress with two different properties, that never got passed us giving all the credentials.Never contacted us with updates. We had to phone multiple times to try draw blood from a stone.Kept information from us for no reason. I genuinely never understood the reason people always spoke badly about estate agents until dealing with this company.Not only that, after 15 weeks of hard graft, on our end, trying to complete with a property. We were finally told that the landlord didn’t want people / business of our sort in his premises. Why it took whybrow that long to tell us that I have no idea. But thanks again for dragging us along when you knew our situation.We then looked at another property with them which we were assured we’d have no issues of the sort. Only to put multiple generous offers in and get told (after again, drawing blood from a stone) that the landlord had accepted another persons offer… what’s laughable is that months later I’m receiving spam email advertising the very properties we were trying to proceed with. That’s after asking to be taken off the mailing list.So all in all. Will not give you any information when you’re trying to get it, make excuses to get away with not talking to you and then, when you don’t want it they spam your emails after requesting to be taken off. Genuinely feel like we were taken for a joke and palmed off.But I have to thank them in a way, because we’ve now had a much more pleasant experience with another local estate agents that cannot even compare to the experience had here.

Hugo Mortimer in particular was an outstanding agent helping us negotiate the procedures for taking over a commercial lease with the minimum of stress.

Great firm who have recently handled our commercial lease schedules. Happy to recommend Whybrow for any commercial property needs. Especially grateful to Ewan and Terri for their commitment to delivering great service even during these challenging times.

Shocking service have been emailing them for over a month and they have not had the common courtesy to respond. Try and find another commercial agent in town.In addition have had problems with the current building we rent from Whybrow & Dodds Limited with the landlord being Mr Whyrow. Once again could not be more unhelpful with any ongoing issues with the building, anyone looking to take up a tenancy beware.

I've had some challenging experiences in the past with Whybrow, but Francis Britton has been really helpful. An asset to this company. Would have given higher if I was just rating Francis.

Fantastic company and great service. Francis was so helpful throughout the whole process. Everything was transparent and pretty straight forward.I defiantly would recommend Whybrow :)

Posted on behalf of Philip MacLauchlan, Adept Consultancy UK Limited“We have recently completed an acquisition for Toolstation where Ewan Dodds of Whybrow acted for the landlord. Although relatively complex, good communication and a solid commercial approach and advice enabled the deal to be concluded to both parties’ satisfaction. The deal is part of a huge ongoing expansion throughout England, Scotland and Wales and the business is very excited to have secured this opportunity and very much looks forward to opening for trade soon.”

I have worked along side Ewan and his team now since 2010, producing Commercial EPC's for his company. Nothing is to much effort and they are always on the ball with planning and organizing any site visits, chasing clients and vendors etc. A company that I trust and value their services.
