Really poor experience with this agency when trying to purchase property. Lost out on best and finals initially - no problem with this. The successful buyer was unable to get a mortgage though, and the agency failed to make me aware. When I discovered it still on rightmove I enquired again and resubmitted my offer. Then I was told another offer was being negotiated and had just been accepted. When I called to speak to the manager Mr Gallagher who I presume is the owner, to see if there was anything I could do and to discuss my experience he was rude and dismissive. He also said he would make a judgment about whether or not to put my offer forwards based on me getting my point across to his satisfaction. Considering there is a legal obligation to present all offers this is more than a little concerning to buyers and sellers alike. Avoid.

I viewed a property JD Gallagher were selling and was told three different stories by their staff relating to a damp issue. They will say anything to get a sale. Be wary if you are viewing properties being sold by this company.

BE PREPARED TO BE MESSED AROUND In addition to my previous review I’d like to explain why I was not happy with the service I have received at JDG estate agents: I’d like to point out that our completion took 10 months, we initially had 2 viewings on where both agents said the property is ready to move in and we were reassured that the minute we get our documents ready the property is ours, John has also not mentioned anything to do with the probate during our initial telephone conversation while negotiating the price and has also reassured me that the property won’t have any delays (this was the main reason we decided to go ahead) anyway further down the line after paying all the required fees, finding the solicitors etc we were told the vendor doesn’t have a probate and we cannot go further without it which we found ridiculous why was this not mentioned at the viewings? Why were we reassured both times the property is ready?! This was clearly a LIE!! So obviously the property was put on the market by the estate agents without all the required documents which meant property was not ready to move into, We were provided with a date by when we should finally have the keys several times but ended up being ignored and lied on After 6-7 months of waiting and left in limbo we decided to request Louisa to kindly ask the vendor for £10,000 price reduction as even Louisa said that would’ve been fair as we were already waiting a while, Louisa called us next day and I’m pretty sure that conversation was recorded and confirmed the vendor is happy to reduce the price by £10,000 as this would be ”reasonable” few days later we got another update from Louisa telling us that the price reduction won’t go ahead so this is a clear sign of how messed around we were. The estate agents then started blaming Co-op probate department for delaying the process but I’m assuming the vendor didn’t expect to find the buyer so quickly so they only applied for probate after the property was put on the market, but why lie and not make things clear? I appreciate you work for the vendor and try finding the best price for them however I’d probably suggest to consider the buyers in the process as well because they are as important, and not mess them around like we were. Also, with regards to the recorded telephone conversation this is a clear reflection of how frustrated and out of control you have made me with your utter lies. Kind regards Mr Kadiu

Very very bad experience with this estate agency. Try and avoid this agency as much as you can. They tell lies from the day one of viewing to the day of completion which it was 10 month later. 10 month to complete a sale?! And they pretend to be the best agency in lancaster and morcambe but they are the WORST ones. Start from john and finish to Louisa very unprofessional... very disappointing and cost me so much money waiting 10 month for somthing which it was not my fault but agency...

They are scammers. Beware of this company. They rented me a house with no hot water. It took them over a month to fix. Then, when I complained about the multiple disrepairs, these cretins had me evicted. On top of that, they had the audacity to claim my full deposit. Horrible and racist staff. If you're a foreigner, they will treat you with disrespect. Avoid at all costs.

Appalling services as a letting agent. Reported Damp repeatedly to their office to which they made very minimal efforts to resolve and only approved the very minimal works to force contractors to botch job the repairs and hide the damp as apposed to actually fixing the problem. I had to repeatedly chase them up to send people to look at the property, and when the damp was first reported they attempted to tell me they knew the cause/extent of the issues without someone even entering the property despite the damp only getting worse. Thankfully I wished to be home when a contractor eventually attended and he told me the true cause of the damp and put requests in to fix this properly however he was not approved the work. I was reporting the damp issues for over a year before I finally found a newer property to move to and handed in my notice, then suddenly they rushed out a damp surveyor to check the property,. And sadly after this terrible service and the state jd Gallagher was willing to leave my home in, they have still attempted to not give me my full deposit back. I am extremely disappointed in JDG. After being a loyal tenant for years I would not recommend them to anyone.

Do not trust them and lying so blatantly to try and sell a property. They have a good portfolio of properties and when speaking with their staff on the phone they are lovely. However we visited a property in lancaster and spotted some warning signs of damp the guy showing the property just blatantly lied to us and said there are no problems with damp. When we pointed out the very obvious ones including the walls being really wet in two rooms on the top floor and the fact that there was holes in the roof where we could see the daylight coming through, he continued to lie. There were a few other things he claimed that did not match what we were seeing. Went and bought the next house we saw with a different agent
