Wooster & Stock / GJM Property

Recommended Posts

Having just sold and bought I would say that I dealt w KFH Forest Hill to sell and they were very good but neighbours used them afterwards and said they were terrible - go figure. I used both W&S and GJM when looking and was very impressed with Tony, he was friendly & knowledgable and not pushy. Just about all the other EA on LL were quite lackadaisical, I had to follow up and enquire about new properties for the most part. : (

One thing I would say is when selling is to get a 2-3 week contract because they will have called all their list and gotten them in for viewings in that period and if no one is interested then the house goes "off the boil".

And finally, think of the whole process as similar to childbirth, a pain when you are going through it but once over and you are in your new home the result is well worth it and the pain lessens with time : )

Good luck!

I used GJM last year - Becky Munday was very helpful there although I was just about to move over to KFH when a buyer was finally found! Despite a very difficult and halting sales process due to issues further down my chain, Becky was very effective and proactive in assisting to get everything sorted. Although I did not like the photographer's first photos, they did happily agree to redo and work with me to get the sales particulars to my satisfaction and I would initially use then again.
We bought brought Winkworth and they gave exceptional service to both us and the sellers. Ayesha who is one of the managers was incredibly professional, I couldn't recommend them highly enough. As buyers dealing with Wooster and Stock, they didn't seem that bothered, if I was selling I wouldn't go with them as the attitude puts off potential buyers.

Thanks everyone. GJM have given us a surprisingly high valuation which, to be honest, we don't think is that achievable but we like the idea of using a local agency so may still go with them and see what happens. We aren't in a massive rush to sell so have some time to test the water.


We used both KFH and Winkworth when buying and from that experience we wouldn't use them this time.

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
