Howard Douglas Estate Agents

Excellent this is the third time we've used them, Howard and the team honest and reliable.

Howard Douglas recently sold my parent’s house near Bovey Tracey. Howard personally accompanied all the viewings and his team did a great job. We also dealt with Clarissa in the lettings department and she was really helpful.

My wife and I bought our first house through the agency and were both impressed by the high quality customer service, knowledgeable and friendly staff and we both felt well looked after during what could have been a stressful experience.Howard and his team were always happy to help and answer any questions that we had.Couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

We sold our mothers house through Howard Douglas and they were brilliant. I can't thank them enough for their commitment. All through the pandemic they escorted prospective purchasers even though my mother could not. They were very professional and kept in regular contact. All the staff are lovely and very helpful. I cannot recommend them enough. Sale professionally concluded. Thank you.

We bought our home in Ashburton through Howard Douglas and received a first class service. Pippa was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. The staff were all courteous and helpful. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to others. Thanks again for everything.

Clarissa has been an absolute star throughout our tenancy. We wish you all the best with your future endeavours.

Pippa provided professional and responsive service to us as we house hunted and then purchased in Ashburton. Thank you.

Howard Douglas was very helpful throughout the process and always had time to sit with me and go over details.I would highly recommend them.

Deeply unpleasant experience with a person called Natalie at this agency – was rude and dismissive when I asked for clarification regarding a property, and then told me there was no point in applying for any properties with Howard Douglas. Very, very strange way of treating people. Howard Douglas clearly only care about landlords so I would suggest avoiding if you are looking to rent – the irony being that I am looking to rent in the short to medium term before buying. Glad to know to avoid this agency.

Iv been into the agent a few time’s and have always felt I was bothering them by asking questions.On a recent occasion I had a viewing booked for one of their properties, after driving 40 minutes to the appointment the agent was a no show I rang the office to be told “Sorry the property has been let, we tried to call you a few hours ago”.This was a blatant lie as I had no missed calls or any voicemails, plus when organising the viewing I didn’t leave my number as they didn’t ask (I had to promt the lady to even take my name).The property was only a short walk from the office so if they knew they hadn’t spoken to me directly they should have at least met me outside to save me waiting for them and to tell me in person.I have worked for a agent before and know this isn’t a way to treat customers. If you haven’t spoken to the customer directly you need to make the up most effort to let them know it’s been cancelled.I’d avoid them in the future.
