I gave an expert insight into these types of properties which are blocks of flats with deck access, of which the lenders will also require the % of owner occupiers and take into account re-saleability. The service charges are also high, due to lifts and the concierge, these are predominately for cash buyers, but at certain prices as mentioned. I was marketing at a price that was requested. The housing association i work with declined to purchase. Offers were received, but as mentioned ,when they applied for mortgages

Was the biggest waste of time. They never gave any feedback unless i begged for it. Lied about viewings that didnt happen. Then lied about a offer and then didnt give me the keys back on the date I asked for and we agreed for so I had to go into the office to get them where they laughed at me about it. I wish I didnt waste 3 months on this hell

Stephen is very professional and responsive. Phenomenal service! I have been renting with Samuel King for four years. Stephen always dealt with all queries efficiently and in timely manner. Now he has also helped me to purchase my first property. Stephen was invaluable in helping at all stages of house buying - help with surveyors, practicalities etc Also responded quickly to queries and was a calming presence when things got stressful. I look forward to working with him more in the future. Highly recommend!

Stephen from Samuel King Estate Agents at barking road has helped me rent a property with them. I've found his service excellent, he is professional and so helpful. From my experience he always seem to put his customers first. His deep knowledge about his field of work is exceptional. He responds even out of hours and will go out of his way to ensure customer needs are met. I've also spoken to other staff members there and they are all excellent. I can't rate them highly enough. I will definitely use them again. Thank you Stephen!
