Since April 1998.


Came to London in 1989 (From Durham...I consider it to be missionary work....) having tried Maida Vale, Highgate, Wimbledon Park, Putney & Wimbledon Chase before arriving here.


I see there is still much work to do..... ;-)

Too right there is, compared to all the places you've lived in before, ED must feel positively primative.

Is this a competition? If so started in Longford..Dublin..Hackney..Tower Bridge(outside of it but near enough)..Hanwell..East Acton..West Hampstead..Hammersmith..Streatham..Fulham..one or two I can't remember and East Dulwich 20 years. What do I score?
I thought I was ancient and reading all this confirms that I am, have lived in East Dulwich since 1950 - grew up in Spurling Road (which was designated slum clearance twice) moved to Forest Hill in 1969 - to escape the damp rot and fungi in our lounge. Extended family lived in Landells road, I returned to ED -1971 and live within a mileof my childhood haunts.

    • ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding Support from No-Files – A Truly Exceptional Experience I want to extend a huge thank you to Tony at No-Files Estate Agents for his incredible help and unwavering support over the past 10 months. My flat sale was far from straightforward, and I truly don’t think I’d be in my new home today without him. The process was made extremely difficult by solicitors who were unprofessional, unresponsive, and at times, outright rude. They refused to communicate with each other, which caused significant delays and confusion throughout the chain. Tony became the key point of contact between four people in the chain and the other estate agent, constantly stepping in to manage communication and keep things moving. The situation became so complex that all parties were forced to exchange and complete on the same day. Despite all three buyers and sellers having removal vans booked and packed, one solicitor refused to answer calls and only sent a single email at 3:55pm making it impossible for anyone to move that day. This caused unnecessary stress and cost for everyone involved and we all live for weeks with a flat with all my items packed away. To make matters worse, my mortgage offer—along with the offers for others in the chain—was expiring. Solicitors offered no guidance and simply suggested reapplying, with no clear timeline or confidence in the process. Throughout it all, Tony remained calm, communicative, and supportive. He was the only person I could rely on to explain what was happening, keep everyone in the loop, and offer reassurance during moments when I felt completely overwhelmed. His professionalism, dedication, and genuine care made all the difference. I am so grateful I chose No-Files. Although I’m sad to have moved out of the area and may not be able to use them again, I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to recommend them. If you're looking for an estate agent who is professional, honest, transparent, and truly goes above and beyond—No-Files and Tony are exactly who you need. Thank you again, Tony — I truly couldn’t have done this without you! May 2025  Andrea
