Reviews of Alan Francis Ltd
S. T.
The guys at Alan Francis are great. We have had a ridiculous time with landlords pulling out of a property we thought would be our home and such but thanks to the team we are moving into a property we really love and actually prefer!
Big thank you to Vincent who has been there start to finish with our viewings and constant emails back and forth when it was all going wrong (sorry about that!)
Biggest thanks to Ben, he made sure we found somewhere we loved and kept us informed! It's never a good feeling when the manager calls but I can always trust he & the team will do their best for us.
Jack is fantastic, getting us in exactly when we needed and sorting contracts for us. He was there on my first move into the property I am moving out of and was such a help with my questions back then as well.
And as an extra, suppose Harvey gets a little thanks as well. He hasn't helped us with our new property but has led the viewings for a new person from where we are moving out from. He was professional and very funny when the viewings were taking place, wish all agents had the humour and personality he and the team have! It keeps you going.
Just a really big thank you from Luke & I. Sure we'll speak soon 😂

An extremely good experience from start to finish. Nicky Andrews was my point of contact for renting a property. She was so wonderful and helpful, answering any questions I had and most importantly she was very approachable. I never had any issues and had an overwhelmingly positive experience. I would highly recommend Nicky to anyone looking to rent a house. By far she is the best agent I have ever dealt with. Absolutely top class service, thank you Nicky!
K. S.
Alan Francis has been fab so far. Nicky was lovely and got us into a property really quickly and was great at explaining everything. Nicky was very transparent when we initially said we wanted the property as other viewings were booked. We submitted our application whilst the other viewings took place and as promised, Nicky let us know that evening whether our application was successful or not. Was great to hear back so quickly given we needed to get in a property very quickly and we’re starting to get worried! The letting process was made as simple as possible - signing paperwork at the property on the day of getting the keys was by far easier than printing and scanning back! Thanks Nicky.
P. B.
This was my first house sale & purchase in 21 years. My second ever. And what a pleasure it was dealing with Josh, Joe, Leo, Charlie and Brad at Alan Francis. AF isn't a national chain, but is a local business, and they worked really hard for me, and were always pleasant and courteous. All young people with a lot of energy, they constantly went the extra mile for me. There was no hard sell or sharp practice. Just a delightful bunch of very competent and personable professionals. We all find ourselves let down so frequently these days. So it was very refreshing to find Alan Francis a safe pair of hands. My purchase/sale was not uneventful, losing both a buyer and a vendor which extended the ordeal to eight months, and meant I had to re-market the house and go out seeking another purchase in an already highly competitive market. But Joe and the others kept it on track and kept me positive. They were quick to pivot, and very communicative. I chose AF after dealing a couple of years previously with Nicky in their lettings team, who impressed me. And the sales team was just as good. I look forward to dealing with them again in the future. Thanks guys!
S. O.
I have been renting with Alan Francis for almost 10years and their support with all concerned has been phenomenon. There are staffs that have been really great to mention a few Daniel, Nicky and Harvey. Lauren support with all maintenance has been outstanding. Sincerely fantastic is Vincent Forrest whose customer service and great smile gives me the confidence all will be alright with support in regards to my rental property. Thanks to all staff.
D. Y.
Alan Francis is just wonderful and professional, dealing property could be very painful without responsible agent like them. I used the service of both their sales and letting team, both of them are good.
The sales team performance is like, amazing, outstanding! I can’t recommend any better, to be honest. My sales consultant is called Josh and Charlie, and they are stars, highly recommended.
B. W.
Highly recommend Alan Francis Estate Agents. We have recently sold our property through them and couldn’t have wished for a better service. From the first contact with Josh who did our valuation they have been so professional, with nothing being too much trouble. Charlie’s communication, updates and advice have been exceptional. Josh has a fantastic understand of the property market and was always on hand for extra bits of advice, even with our onwards purchase. Thanks Both.
A. T.
We have dealt with Alan Francis for both purchase and lettings for many years both phone and in person. They continue to excel and demonstrate promptness and professionalism consistently. This time it's no different. Ben Nicky Jeremy and Lauren all took time out to meet in person initially; we consider this vital in instilling confidence. Our special thanks to Nicky as Client Liaison who saw the process through. The whole team including Victoria, Jack, Vincent and Holly kept us informed throughout. We are confident Alan Francis will continue to provide highest standards expected as we move forward. We recommend Alan Francis.
J. D.
Using Alan Francis was one of the best decisions I made while selling my house. The team are amazing and a special mention to Josh, Brad and Joe who I interacted with. Their communication was incredible always keeping me up to date where the process was at, allowing us to have full trust in them and making the process as efficient as possible. My partner and I are so grateful, and couldn’t reccomend them more.
V. W.
My experience of dealing with Alan Francis Ltd has been wholly positive. I have found the staff to be friendly, professional, helpful and proactive. Vincent, Ben and Casey have been a pleasure to deal with and any time I have called and they have not been available, whoever answers the phone has been equally as professional and helpful. I have over the past 6 months dealt with a number of estate agents and I can confirm that this service is not the norm! I will only be using Alan Francis Ltd going forward.
M. P.
I initially chose Alan Francis due to their incredible knowledge of the Milton Keynes housing market. They understood every sale that had already happened in my development and what that told us about the marketing of the property.
When they came to market the property - they put as much care into it as if it was their own house. They did an incredible job in ensuring the property attracted the right buyer in the shortest time possible. Mine went in a month at the full asking price.
The actual sale was very complicated but Joe was proactive, conscientious and customer focused. Continually providing updates and tenaciously pushing the process of completion along. Thanks Joe!
S. M. R.
We have rented through Alan Francis Estate agents for a number of years and their service has always been professional and friendly. Our last move a month ago was handled by Vincent He was patient, kind, helpful and friendly. All the staff that we dealt with are helpful and friendly. Thanks for a job well done.
S. P.
Our experience with Alan Francis was fantastic from start to finish.
Everyone in the team, were always friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. They made us feel valued and important as customers. Overall we had a great experience with Alan Francis and would highly recommend.

Recently moved into a rental property with Alan Francis and had a positive experience. Viewing was booked for within 2 days, I signed the relevant forms the day I viewed and had confirmation that the place was mine by the end of the day. Vincent kept me up to date on the moving process, was friendly and helpful, and I was all moved in within 2 weeks.
L. C.
Me and my partner are renting through Alan Francis and have been dealing with Harvey Staddon who has been fantastic! He is highly personable, knowledgeable and friendly, and kept us updated throughout the entire process. I highly recommend both the agency and Harvey himself. Thanks so much!
A. S.
Leo expertly handled the purchase of my property, he was very instrumental in making a complex and time consuming process very pain free. Leo was very personable, diligent, attentive and patient. He kept me well informed throughout the entire process and was always available to deal with my queries. When there were obstacles to navigate, he was willing to make the extra effort to facilitate the process and resolve the issues.
S. M.
Been with Alan Francis for several years now and always found them reliable and professional. They have just secured a new tenant for my property. This was done quickly and managed to avoid any loss of income despite one prospect pulling out. Well done Vincent Forrest and the team.
M. M.
I have been dealing with Alan Francis now for over 10 years, Dan and Ben especially. I have brought properties through them and then use these guys to find me tenants. Going to be honest things have not always gone smoothly - but then things happen! What made me keep my business relationship with them is the fact that they put their hands up if they are wrong and they attempt to rectify or reimburse you - which is what makes the relationship going. Further, I feel that I can pick up the phone and ask them honestly about the market - this has made me bring my family to them too! Keep up the good work guys! The first agent I would go to if I am looking for a home!
S. E.
My experience with Alan Francis Ltd has been amazing. Nicky Andrews is such a wonderful, kind and helpful lady I’m so happy I am renting through her. Love my new home, great experience highly recommend Nicky 😊
L. K.
Amazing experience! Everything was super smooth. Nicky Andrews 5⭐️👌, friendliest person every, very informative, straight answers, she should be example to other properties managers.
Highly recommended!
T. K.
Best local estate agent. Professional friendly staff will find you the best tenant promptly. Consultant Jack Hurley provided us with the best service recently. Top team.
A. m.
Been dealing with Harvey from Alan Francis for a while to find the right property for myself and my partner. He got me to view this property in Walnut tree and we took it. The whole process has been super easy and stress free. Would highly recommend Harvey and the Alan Francis team.
E. R.
Alan Francis was a great choice for me, I can give them 5 stars. Vincent was a great, helpful and pure gentleman, thank you very much. I totally recommend them
M. C.
Have been dealing with Harvey from Alan Francis and have been really impressed with how he has kept us up to date. Very professional and highly recommend the agency.
A. B.
Harvey was excellent, showing us around, very knowledgeable, answered all our questions. Made us at ease with a stressful move. We’re sure to come back to him when we buy our own home soon.
L. C.
We use Alan Francis for all of our tenant finding, and have done so for more than a decade. They know our rental properties and we've had some lovely tenants over the years.
We recently sold a property through them, whilst we've had a number of issues including lockdown and a very frustrating purchaser, all of the staff at Alan Francis have been friendly, polite and courteous, and dealt with the issues arising in the professional manner I've come to expect from this well established, Milton Keynes based company.
p. J.
PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONABLE! ESPECIALLY JOE AND BRAD.. ALL STAFF WANT THEIR CUSTOMERS TO BE HAPPY ALONG THEIR JOURNEY TO COMPLETION. I WILL RECOMMEND AND USE AGAIN! A PLEASURE, EVEN WITH UNFORSEEN HURDLES 🤓 💜
T. F.
Everything went better than expected when moving in and out of my rented property. Very smooth and on schedule. Holly Wade, especially was very polite, professional and always very helpful with any concerns I had. She took it upon herself to arrange for my post to be collected when I had an important concern, which she did not entirely have to do. Fantastic customer service!!
a. k.
Highly recommend Vincent Forrest (Alan Francis)
We had a great experience finding and moving into my new rental property on Milton Keynes old brook.
My agent (Vincent Forrest) was great, listened to me and helped me out with all of my questions.
Finding and moving in to my new property was quick and all arrangements were done very perfectly.
Many thanks to Vincent Forrest .Good Work
M. B.
I bought a property through Joe and the Team at Alan Francis. Throughout the whole process I was kept informed and up to date by Joe who was very friendly, approachable and professional!
This was my second property and though moving home is usually a headache Joe and the Team made my life much easier by giving me regular updates and acting immediately on any issues we had.
I highly recommend Joe Frost and Team at Milton Keynes Alan Francis!
M. C.
I recently purchased a property through Alan Francis Estate Agents, I dealt with Joe from start to finish. He was fantastic, he kept me up to date on a regular basis, he answered my questions, he liaised with the vendor on various matters and really made, what is usually a really stressful process, really easy and smooth - I really can’t thank him enough. All members of the team were helpful and ensured that I was kept in the loop even when Joe was away from the office - great service and really friendly too.
M. J.
I am an overseas landlord that has been using Alan Francis for well over five years. I have to say that whenever I've needed their help and support, they have been there for me. Most recently my tennants (found by Alan Francis) decided to leave, I contacted the team and within a very sorry space of time they had found me new tenants, and moved them in with minimum disruption and fuss. Harvey and Jack were my support this time round, and did a great job, but really the whole team lead by Daniel have been fantastic over the years and I can't thank then all enough! Well done all, keep up the good work!
B. P.
We want to say a special thanks to the team at Alan Francis - and Josh in particular.
We bought a property through Alan Francis. We had a great viewing with Joe, and then subsequent communications were with Josh.
At every stage, the team were proactive, highly responsive to any questions we had, and would easily turn frustrations into useful answers and kept us positive.
We had a few blips when our exchange date approached and Josh ended up doing a lot of back and forth with solicitors to get things sorted. Even when we accidentally ordered a parcel to the new house, Josh was on the line to help get it sorted.
From a buyer's perspective, we would highly recommend Alan Francis, and if we ever decide to sell we will be getting in touch. A wonderful team who genuinely seem to care!
S. l.
Alan Francis have looked after my rental property for 10 years they have been amazing very professional. I put the property on the market and joe frost was most helpful every step of the way. very professional company and a absolute pleasure to deal with. It was stress free and a smooth transaction. Thank you so much to joe and the whole team 5 star service start to finish
l. t.
a professional and reliable service. We sold our property on the first day of viewing and the sale was completed in under two months. Very friendly and always returned my calls, we would definitely use them again. Thank you to all the sales team.
S. T. B.
A huge thank you to Joe Frost for helping us buy. Joe has been very supportive throughout the process be it communicating with the sellers, solicitors and anyone involved or updating us with latest information. This was our first time experience with Alan Francis and Joe has made it memorable for us. I highly recommend Alan Francis!
J. S.
I would like to express my sincerest gratitude to everyone on the Alan Francis, Medina House, Avebury Boulevard, Lettings team for finding what has become the perfect home for me. Over the 6 plus years I lived here Holly, Lauren, Nicky, Ben, David and everyone else on the lettings team consistently provided a prompt, professional, helpful and pleasurable service. I cannot recommend too highly this excellent team and excellent letting agent. Thank you so much for everything that you have done for me.
😃
C. A.
Thank you to the team for selling our house. They did an excellent job and were very easy to deal with - couldn’t recommend them enough. In the final weeks before completion there were a few hiccups but Charlie went over and above the call of duty to keep me updated and reassured. All matters were rectified quickly and we had a successful exchange and a swift completion. Thanks guys.
t. P.
Really good service down at alan franics they helped me with moving into my rental property. Want to give a shoutout to Jack, Harvey, Dan and Ben especially for the brilliant service they provided.
G. T.
I had a great experience finding and moving into my new rental property. My agent (Harvey Staddon) was great, listened to me and helped me out with all of my questions. Finding and moving in to my new property was quick and stress-free. Many thanks to Harvey and the rest of the team at Alan Francis!
S. L.
Started off really great Harvey was really helpful, found a property that was perfect and started the letting process, 14days in after contacting Alan Francis on a few occasions after i knew i had passed a rent check to check to see if i got the property i was told i had, so i started my moving process, just to be called to be told that my contact for the property will be terminated as the current tenants have withdrew there notice and have now extended there lease, frustrated to say the least as i now have 2 weeks to find a property before i become homeless, to be told by Alan Francis that there is nothing they can do other then help me find another property
E. T.
I have dealt with Harvey Staddon from Alan Francis for my new property. He has helped me with the whole process and kept us up to date. Thank you Harvey.
A. M.

We had an unbelievable amazing experience working with Alan Frances in Milton Keynes over the last month and a half. They are exceptionally kind and professional in all steps of selling and renting. Their efficiency in finding the tenants and the buyers was mind blowing. Endless gratitude to Jack and Jordan from letting and Josh and Leo from selling department. Have no enough words to recommend this outstanding crew.
k. w.
Very efficient, great communications,
Been use them on and off for many years,
Good rates for landlord.
No problem whatsoever.
Get me a tenant with in days ,well done.
N. T.
From the moment we decided to sell our property we were extremely well looked after, we were well advised at every step of the process and we sold our property very quickly mainly because our buyers had already been qualified by our agent prior to having their viewing.
A. B.
Had great experience moving into a rental property. Process was smooth and simple. Our agent Harvey Staddon was very helpful and professional
D. W.
From the day I put my flat up for sale with Alan Francis, I received nothing but very good servicee from them, especially Joe and his colleagues. I was kept informed of all viewings, and they were very helpful with other matters concerning the sale. Well done Alan Francis! I
E. D.
Everyone at Alan Francis were extremely polite, knowledgeable and professional.
As the property was vacant (and I was based 2 hours away) the guys were attentive and always on call to help out whenever they could.
T. R.
I cannot imagine any estate agent being better than Alan Francis.
Charlie Duke made everything work wonderfully well and his attention to detail exceeded all expectations. The marketing included eye-in-sky drone shots of the property and a pitch-perfect video. Viewings came quickly and invaluable advice about each stage of the selling process was always forthcoming. We completed the sale in a timely, warm and friendly way. I’m delighted.
B. C.
Thank you Holly Wade! Great response and very prompt. Inspection was well coordinated and very good attention to the details. With my tenancy experience with other agencies, I would any day recommend Alan Francis for their great service, responsiveness and professionalism!
E. G. G.
I found my new rental flat via Alan Francis, with Harvey Staddon taking care of the process. He is energetic, enthusiastic, and very helpful; I cannot fault him or the general process.
E. M.
I have rented with Alan Francis for a number of years and always found them helpful, professional and approachable. Today I emailed first thing about an issue with my fridge freezer and with a couple of hours Lauren had sorted out a new one to arrive Friday and a some money back to cover any loss of food … she was not only very efficient and helpful but very friendly!!
M. S.
Alan Francis Lettings are the best in Milton Keynes. I have dealt with Harvey Staddon who has really helped me with the whole process and ensured me to move into a lovely property.
D. B.
Alan Francis were very helpful in helping me find somewhere to rent. Jordan was particularly helpful in showing me various properties and making sure everything went smoothly. He kept great communication with me throughout. I would recommend Alan Francis to anyone that is looking to rent.
M. H.
Just changed tenants and once again Alan Francis have been terrific. Professional, helpful, communicative. They really do care about customer care and satisfaction!
Through their network of contractors, they have sorted every issue seamlessly.
Thanks Alan Francis, a great job as always.
As a long standing landlord - Alan Francis has taken care of my small portfolio of properties in Milton Keynes for nearly 15 years. The care and attention to detail they provide is excellent. The staff are professional and they keep me informed if ever there is an issue to resolve. I have complete confidence in them and would not consider using anyone else. In short, as a landlord I have complete peace of mind and would recommend Alan Francis to anyone immediately and without hesitation.
K. O.
I purchased my first home through Alan Francis during May 2020. Despite the fact there was a global pandemic, I found the process stress-free thanks to Brad. I was always told that buying a property was stressful but Brad and his team made it so much easier for us! When we had any queries, Brad was incredibly responsive and if he was busy then his team would always pass on messages to him. Going forward, we will continue to use Alan Francis for house sales and purchases. Thank you for making the process enjoyable and carefree.
F. L.
Vincent helped us move into a lovely house that we are very happy with! He was so patient, kind and helpful, getting every answer for every question we asked. He made the whole process very easy and stress free! 10/10 would recommend!
L. B.
I've used Alan Francis for selling a property and found them incredibly responsive, keeping me regularly informed and chasing the legal requirements along. I've used them regularly for letting as well, I wouldn't use any other agency having had poor experience elsewhere. The tenants they have found have been properly checked and to date I have never had a problem.
I'm delighted with their sales and lettings and highly recommend them
C. A.
Working with Jack Hurdley has been a memorable experience. He's been incredibly superb. Professional, friendly, cheerful, always supportive and without airs about him. We moved in yesterday and it was all thanks to Jack. Couldn't have happened without him.
G. K.
The Alan Francis team always provide a fast and professional service. They are friendly and very helpful at all times I would strongly recommend Allan Francis, Milton Keynes to potential property sellers and buyers.
A. C.
We brought a house through Alan Francis and the estate agent - Charlie was excellent, so prompt at dealing with queries and updating us on where we were in the process. He was also great at following up with the chain to keep things moving. I told my mum about how great Charlie had been and she is in the process of selling her house through him now!
D. K.
I have now been using Alan Francis' service for six years, in this six years I have had many dealings with Lauren, Holly, Nicky, Jack and Ben. The team have made it very easy for me to let my property, they have taken the stress from, finding new tenants to maintenance work that needs to be untaken. I find regardless of who takes/answers my call they take ownership of the issue that needs to be dealt with. I would like to thank the team for being consistent with good service.
P. L.
Great service and super professional staff! Highly recommend Jack Hurley - he is our go to every time! He helped us find the perfect place to rent in just a couple of days, explained the referencing process and was overall super supportive and helpful during our year long tenancy. I promise you won't be disappointed with Alan Francis!
A.
I was pleasantly surprised with the high level of customer service Alan Francis gave me from the first time I called them to enquire about a rental property. I first liaised with Jordan who took the time to really understand what I was looking for, he was very polite and supportive from the get go. I then met with Jillian who showed me a variety of places and with a great attitude that made you feel like Alan Francis really cares about you as a potential customer. Although I am yet to find the perfect property, I really appreciated Alan Francis' approach in comparison to other terrible experiences where you feel like the agent simply couldn't care for your requirements.
P. m.
The Alan Francis team - Josh, Joe and Charlie - provided professional and first class service throughout. They were friendly and brilliant communicators and delivered many viewings which resulted in a sale. I would strongly recommend Allan Francis, Milton Keynes to potential property sellers.
R. K.
From Alan Francis we had Good Service, plenty of viewings, multiple offers, and a friendly helpful team throughout the process. We were very pleased with the interest in our property generated through Alan Francis Estate Agents. The Agent also stepped in to save the sale when unreasonable demands were being requested from the buyer legal advisor and managed to negotiate a compromise which worked for all parties.
P. S.
The whole team at the Alan Francis in Milton Keynes branch, especially Ben, were professional, positive and accessible.
I’m very thankful for the service I received.
I was in urgent need to rent a house and Agent really showed his interest in my case and I felt I was treated as priority costumer.
Would definitely recommend this company to anyone - first class.
T. G.
We had the pleasure of dealing with Josh on a purchase in 2019. He was great at communicating with us and during our viewings gave us plenty of time and space to view the property. Sadly this purchase didn't go through in the end and we have since bought elsewhere with another estate agent in MK who were truly terrible. They didn't even come close to the level of service offered by Josh at AF - truly a credit to the business. When we're looking to sell we know who we will be in touch with. Thanks again.
P. F.
Great lettings team. They really go above and beyond. I'd highly recommend Alan Francis to both landlords and tenants.
B. S.
I'm giving some more positive feedback!
Alan Francis have managed our letting property now for over 12 years and have always undertaken it in a professional, friendly and efficient way. The recent letting, undertaken by Harvey, has been trouble free and efficient. It's so nice when we, as owners, have little to worry about and we have confidence in the process managed by Alan Francis.
Communication, often a cause of many problems, has been frequent, informative and invaluable whilst maintaining a personal approach.
Once again, thank you Harvey/Alan Francis.
M. D.
We've got a really nice experience with Alan Francis. Harvey is a top man!!
Highly recomended.
A. Y.
I have just rented a lovely 2 bedroom property through Alan Francis and it's all thanks to Jack Hurley - he contacted me knowing it would be the perfect house for myself and my daughter - location is spot on and the house itself is beautiful - Jack made the whole process stress free and the customer service I received was amazing! I would highly recommend using these guys!! :)
C. K.
I recently sold my house and was really impressed with the service I received from Alan Francis throughout the process. All of the staff who helped us were genuinely good, but I was particularly impressed with Josh Kennedy. Josh was both proactive and responsive, and went the extra mile to help overcome one or two difficulties along the way. He really helped to make it an easy process.
I’d happily recommend Alan Francis to anyone selling their house in Milton Keynes.
Chris Keating
T. P.
Selling & Buying a house is usually a stressful process, but we were so lucky to have Josh Kennedy from Alan Francis as our Agent for our purchase in Milton Keynes.
I could not praise Josh enough, his dedication to help, his professionalism, friendliness, accuracy, amazing communication, hands-on approach, moral support too when things are not going as smooth, his willingness to do everything he can to follow up or help get the process going, even outside the working hours or during his vacation.
Honestly, on our purchase transaction, we couldn't have asked for a better agent. The other contacts we had with Alan Francis were also friendly and making it all a good experience for us, helping reduce the stress of this process.
We highly recommend using Alan Francis, and especially Josh Kennedy.
Thank you Josh for everything.
Regards,
Tatiana

Today we had a visit to our rented property from a lovely lady called Holly Wade and every time she does the house inspection she's so bubbly and she listens to our issues that needed to be sorted out. Every time when she's doing her inspection it is delight to see her as long we're at home and she's very prompt in sorting our property issues out .
Keep up with your good work ethic.😜
Many thanks from Mr&Mrs Parlea.🎉
S. G. (.
Jordan from Alan Francis was great. He kept in contact and on top of things to get me in to the house as quickly as possible. The whole process was done in a matter of days and my stress of finding a rental was over! Now I'm here and if I have any questions, Jordan gets back to me straight away.
S. W.
Alan Francis Lettings and particularly Ben Stock have been efficient and a pleasure to deal with. I can’t recommend them highly enough.
J. W.
My experience with both Holly Wade and Lauren Gee has always been friendly and professional. Whenever an issue arrises they get it handled efficiently and in a timely manner. I have an on going issue with Anglian Water, and even though it’s completely out of Lauren and Holly’s control, they have been dealing with it and have kept me updated every step of the way. I always recommend Alan Francis to any employee at my place of work as within my position, we get a lot of new starters whom move to Milton Keynes and need somewhere to live. So I always recommend Alan Francis because they are reliable and efficient.
J. T.
I just wanted to say a massive thank you to Lauren from AF team as I have received amazing service from her from start to finish. She is very helpful and quickly resolves all maintenance issues with the property we are renting and she always keeps me posted. She is a real credit to the company and fantastic at her job!
B. B.
Alan Francis have managed our rental properties for at least the last fifteen years and their service and professionalism has been outstanding throughout that period. Having experienced both the rental side, on an ongoing basis, and sales side when we sold a property, we can honestly recommend Alan Francis as being the best by far, they will always go the extra mile, keeping everyone in the loop. We have built up a very warm affection for all the staff and whenever problems have surfaced they have been dealt with efficiently and speedily. Renting or selling, there is not a better agent.
E. A.
I have just bought a house through Alan Francis and it has been the best experience I have ever had dealing with estate agents. Josh produced an impression of a highly knowledgeable and professional agent from day one. He has a particular can-do aura about him which made me feel at ease throughout the entire process. In fact, the whole purchase took less than a month. My offer was accepted and we went on a three-week holiday to come back for an exchange and completion in a week’s time. Having been let down by estate agents and solicitors in the past, I could not be happier. Thank you, Josh and the Alan Francis team. They even gave us a lovely reception when we went to pick-up the keys! Highly recommended.
S. A.
I moved into a new flat and there were many issues in there, but I reported all the issues and the agents at Alan Francis were so helpful and quick to respond. they sent all the required maintenance staff within days of me reporting the issues and had given them a detailed list like I have sent over to them. There are three agents in particular who I would like to thank and they are Lauren Gee, Jack Hurley and Holly.
Lauren has managed to get a new bed ordered as the one in the flat is faulty. She took into consideration my storage requirements when ordering the new bed which is something that is not really looked at as urgent. I would like to thank Lauren, Jack and Holly for their hard work with helping us get these issues repaired.
R. S.
A huge thank you to Charlie and the team for helping my partner and I secure our first home!
Charlie has been amazing from day 1! If it wasn't for him, we wouldn't have had the opportunity to even view the home due to work commitments! Charlie was super flexible, and ensured that both of us could view the property to our convenience and also made the sale smooth! There was absolutely no hiccup on the estate agents side, and Charlie was always available to ask any questions, or even to ask for an update!
Thank you again to Charlie and the whole team, and a wee mention to Leo and Josh for helping during this time also!
We are so excited to move in! 🥳

Came to Alan Francis from a very bad experience with a previous agent and Ben and Jack were great and sorted things quickly, the way it should be done, in a very professional way. They found a solid good tenant for me too, meeting all my requirements very quickly. They know what they are doing and it is all about which agency you choose, and I am happy I have chosen Alan Francis to get my property rented.

Fantastic experience with Alan Francis.
Daniel Vincent (Lettings Manager) and Craig Cambridge (Sales Manager) visited my home to give me an idea of its value for both selling and if I were to let the property out. Both were insightful, incredibly helpful and never pushy. This made my choice a simple one as I was filled with the confidence they were the right people for the job.
From day one Craig and his team worked hard to find the right buyer, always keeping my fully up to date with progress. Their work paid off when they found a buyer wanting to move quickly, managing to complete the sale within 8 weeks. Because of the quick turn around Daniel and his team then helped me with a rental property, a great place where I felt at home in straight away. If there was ever a problem, it always felt like the team were there to solve it.
I can’t thank the guys at Alan Francis enough. They delivered on what they promised and more. With great local knowledge and brilliant dedication, why would anyone go elsewhere? Honestly, they turned what I have heard described as one of the ‘most stressful things you can ever do’ into a pain free experience!
Thank You!!

We've been renting through AF for 5+ years now, they used to be really good but than (before covid) it changed suddenly and the responsiveness dropped from ok to non-existent.
They are eager to sound very professional and pleasant on the phone but they clearly don't listen to your issues and so often just trying to get rid of the call (and the problem).
We called them with the same problem 4 times, every time they claimed they can't see the problem logged in their system so we had to repeat the issue every time even though we sent (and resent) emails too. When we highlighted this in a polite manner, the guy on the phone become arrogant and started mocking my wife. Compared to other agents we had experience with, AF is not terrible but equally really far from being good. Reading back all the positive review, it might be an isolated incident or they just don't like us.
AF if you are reading this, focus on communication and setting the right expectation, do under promise and overdeliver, it will boost confidence. Right now every commitment we had from you were not respected and every promise you made were broken. This is bad practice and puts you in a bad market position. In my opinion anyway.
Update: I received a called with a sincere apology about our most recent experience which is always a plus. I'm open to keep changing my review based on our future relationship.

I've dealt with many estate agents, both buying and selling properties and never have I experienced such professional, co-ordinated & friendly service as I have from Alan Francis. Highly recommend Alan Francis Milton Keynes Team, especially Joe, Charlie & Josh for their outstanding and professional work throughout. Thanks again!
S. L.
I’m living in one of their properties for more than a year now and my feedback is split between property rentals and customer service.
Property rentals - The team has been quick in arranging not one but two viewings (per my request) for the property I currently live in and quoted a good value for money rental price.
Customer service - I would like to praise Shani and Lauren from the AF team. They have been quite helpful in resolving all open issues with the property and have shown a great level of professionalism and customer service by keeping me informed at all times. I’m really pleased for receiving such an excellent service and definitely recommend to all potential tenants looking to make a move.

Recently purchased our new home through Alan Francis.
Received a fantastic service from start to finish - very professional, polite and courteous agents who kept me regularly updated throughout the whole process. Thanks to Joe, Josh and the whole team at Alan Francis. Would recommend highly if you're looking to sell your house in the MK area.
R. G.
Great company to deal with. My previous agency merged with Alan Francis and it's been nothing but positive since. Lauren in particular is bubbly, friendly, efficient, helpful and nothing is too much trouble. She is responsive, organised and gets the job done and always makes me chuckle in the process. If all staff members are like her, how could it be anything other than fantastic?
M. C.
I've been an Alan Francis tenant for almost 4 years now and the service has been excellent throughout. From property recommendations and paperwork to maintenance response, the team is responsive, flexible and polite. I always recomend them.
V. P.
My recent property sale using Josh Kennedy at Alan Francis resulted in a fantastic sale price from a motivated buyer. Josh went above and beyond to keep me informed during the process and always responded quickly to my enquiries. I have no hesitation in recommending Josh and will be using him to sell my next property in a couple of months time.

Holly Wade, from Alan Francis in Milton Keynes, Thank you!! for the well managed inspection. Great understanding and service received, excellent communication with prompt action taken, really pleased and impressed- Well done! All in all always a friendly and professional service received.
M. H.
Alan Francis have always lived up to their high standard . I have rented my properties via them on a few occasions. I find them extremely helpful, honest & courteous unlike the vast majority out there. I must emphasis to choose your agent very carefully. With Alan Francis you can rest assured that your dealing will be very fair and with out any hassle. I recently rented my property through Alan Francis, we received the keys and with in 7 days they have found decent tenant. The whole process was so smooth and stress free. The team is extremely courteous and helpful. It would not be fair If do not mention Steven Jones name who helped me like no other agent has done so before. Thank you very much to the whole team,
P. P.
I had a recent house inspection by Holly Wade and I would like to say how professional and friendly she was throughout. I was feeling anxious beforehand but Holly put me completely at ease. During the visit, I expressed that one bedroom in the property was in need of a new carpet and the quickness with which she actioned this was nothing short of amazing. Within a day she had organised a commitment to replace the carpet with the landlord. Excellent service which deserves a glowing review. Thank you Holly :)
T. R.
My partner and I viewed a lot of properties with a variety of estate agents in Milton Keynes and Alan Francis really stood out due to their friendliness, professionalism and quick responses to enquiries.
The agent who showed us round the properties we viewed was Brad Thurgood. Brad was always on time to viewings and never tried to "oversell" a house. He was never pushy and always got back to us quickly to answer questions if he couldn't answer them immediately during the viewing. He was also great company which was a bonus.
Throughout the negotiation, acceptance and completion of our purchase, Brad (and the rest of the staff) were always available to promptly answer questions and update us on the process. This was hugely reassuring, particularly as we were first time buyers.
I couldn't recommend Alan Francis enough to anyone considering purchasing a property. They're a really approachable, professional and personable group of people. Working with them was an absolute pleasure and we'll definitely be in touch with them again if we're looking to move.

I generally stay away from giving feedback on homes I have rented in the past, however after 2yrs plus living in a property managed by Alan Francis I have decided to give a review. My first impression with Nicky gave some re-assurance that this organisation was professional and also tailored its services to the individuals they deal with. Prompt response if there was ever an issue, explanation given on status of works in progress. Also friendly staff, no matter who you spoke with (Josh, Dan, Brad, Amy, Lauren, Savannah, Abby) it has been a pleasure knowing you all. Thanks for all your assistance with the move.
M. B.
The best estate agency in Milton Keynes! We have trusted Alan Francis with our rental properties for years and they sort any tenant or property issues swiftly and make being a property landlord a pleasurable experience.
B. C.
I could not recommend Alan Francis more! We’ve had such a positive experience selling our house with the Alan Francis team who secured a sale within 2 days of the property going on the market with an offer we didn’t even dream of achieving. The service provided by the team is professional, helpful and personal which is such a contrast to our experiences with other estate agents. I wouldn’t hesitate in using Alan Francis again or recommending them to friends and family, they really did take the stress out of selling our home. With special thanks to the Alan Francis team particularly Craig, Adam and Daniel who will go over and above to ensure you receive the best service possible.
A. K.
Really good experience with this agency. Nicky Andrews did everything 110%. I recommend ❤️
V. K. A.
Myself and family have been renting from Alan Francis for over a year now and I must say we are truly pleased by their service.
Special mention to two lovely ladies Lauren Gee and Holly Wade.
Lauren Gee deals with maintenance and nothing is ever an issue for her. She's very understanding and very easy to talk to and deals with them soo efficiently.
Not forgetting the lovely Holly Wade who is always pleasant and with her calm voice reassures me anytime there's an issues. These two ladies are really an assets to Alan Francis!.
L. A.
I rented with Alan Francis for 3 years and have had nothing but a positive experience dealing with them. They were always responsive when I needed anything and communicated well with the land lady on my behalf to ensure anything needed from either side was always organised.
During the covid-19 crisis both the land lady and Alan francis were amazing in supporting my change in circumstance and offering to do all they could to ensure I was able to continue with my let.
I would still be letting with them now if an opportunity with family had not come up. My experience when leaving and communication throughout the inspection and deposit return can not be faulted and deposit money was returned with no issues within 2 days. Excellent service all round and I would highly recommend if you are looking to rent a property
L. F.
We instructed Alan Francis to sell our house, and they were absolutely brilliant at getting us an offer at asking price within 2 weeks of marketing the property, while we were away. Craig and Josh were great in terms of answering my questions during a difficult transaction, I would have expected better sales progression service in general before the problems started, and especially so from Suki who had completed our initial valuation and sold the house.
K. P.
Joe was courteous and helpful throughout, without coming over all "bumptious estate agent". I've used Alan Francis before, and they seem to be that tiny bit more laid-back and grown-up than most estate agents.
M. G.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Steve Jones and the rest of the team for finding us a new home. From start to finish, my experience with Alan Francis has been of a high standard. I found every member of the team that I dealt with to be friendly, professional and efficient. Moving home can be a stressful time, but Estate Agents like these make the process a whole lot more enjoyable! Having worked in Customer Service for many years, I personally feel that it is important to highlight a positive experience, especially when so many people are quick to complain. The service that Alan Francis Estate Agents have provided, exceeded my expectations. I will have no qualms in recommending them to family and friends in future.
N. S.
Alan and Francis did an amazing job of finding me and my mum a perfect two bedroom bungalow. They were very sufficient and managed to do the completion very smoothly and quick. Haven’t experienced a team like them! A big thanks to the team, especially Joe and Josh! Will definitely recommend them and will use them in the future if required.
D. H.
During a very lengthy house purcahse the guys at Alan Francis kept me informed and were very helpful when I needed any information or documentation from the seller. They always respnded quickly to my reqeusts. I would definatley use them again should I need an Estate Agent in the future.
L. C.
I recently bought and sold my house through alan francis and couldn't have been more pleased with the service they provided. From the estate agent that sold my property (for more than i was expecting) sales manager who pushed along the deal when the solicitors were taking there time. Couldn't recommend them enough and will be using them if i plan to move again.
R. K.
I bought a property via Alan Francis and I am very satisfied with the service I received from the estate agent in particular.
I did six viewings via six different estate agents and Alan Francis was the only agent that provided me with a print out of the property details at the time of viewing. That print out is now the only record that I have about the state of the property before I bought it since all details has now been removed from Zoopla after the purchase.
In addition, the agent kept regular contact with me via email and phone, and also chased up my conveyancing solicitors regularly. I'm very pleased with that.
However, it is important for Alan Francis to work on the wording of the communication when offers made by potential buyers are turned down.
I was initially put off by the wording of the email when I made my first offer on the property. It would have been better for the communication to be worded so as to encourage me to make a better offer. We got there in the end and we are all happy, hence my 5 star review.
Thank you very much Alan Francis!
Y. N.
As a landlord Harvey Staddon at Alan Francis has proved to be very efficient and professional. Harvey has kept me updated on finding a new tenant and has very good problem solving skills.
P. M.
After moving into the property there were a few issues, so I ask for someone to take a look. The staff at Alan Francis were more than happy to help solve the problems. In particular Lauren and Mitch, who went above and beyond to make sure they were fixed and my move went as smoothly as possible. Friendly and professional service. Recommended!
S. F.
Alan Francis have just sold my house very quickly for a good price. Jack and Craig handled everything, both were very professional and polite, they certainly know their business. I would certainly use Alan Francis again.
Just used Alan Francis again for lettings, first class service. I dealt with Steve Jones throughout the process, very professional. Got a good quality tenant very quickly and everything went very smoothly.
s. w.
A Huge Thank You to all the team at Alan Francis, especially Harvey for keeping me up to date and Lauren for being so responsive and sorting any issues with speed. Wishing you success in 2022 Veronica Wright

Alan Francis have managed the sell my Woolstone property recently in Milton Keynes The professionalism has been outstanding. Thanks to Josh Kennedy in particular for the great customer experience.
I can recommend Alan Francis and Josh because I know they will always go the extra mile, keeping you updated and doing all those extra little things that really help when you move to another property. The even watered our plants! :) All the best to them, they deserve it!
c. p.
Hands down the best Estate agents I have ever dealt with. Craig and his team have gone above and beyond for me with my recent house sales. I would not hesitate to recommend them to my family and friends and will definitely be using them again in the future. I found them very professional with a clear wealth of knowledge in the property industry. The service i received was excellent especially the updates on progress. Thank you guys.

I have recently rented a property through Alan Francis the negotiatior Ben Stock was amazing he answered all our questions from the start and made sure we got the house we were looking for. Moving from out of the area i was worried about which areas would be suitable for me and my family but Ben put my mind at ease. I dealt with a number of Alan Francis staff throughout the process and i cant recommend this Agency highly enough. Thanks again.
L. G.
Alan Francis have been fantastic. They managed a very difficult transaction brilliantly, working tirelessly to get the transaction over the line. Special thanks to Charlie, Josh and Brad for their work and support.

I have just rented my property with Alan Francis as a first time landlord. They were and have been professional from start to finish and took my stress away in a very difficult time.
I would highly recommend any landlord to them and especially Ben Stock who was very helpful throughout.
S. H.
A big thank you to the Alan Francis sales team especially Josh and Craig! They were very supportive throughout the whole process of selling my property and so professional! Thank you Josh for being so informative and friendly. Having an estate agent that are easy to talk too makes the whole preocedure a lot easier, would definitely recommend!
P. R.
I recently rented a property through Alan Francis. The agent Ben Stock was friendly and professional at all times and handled the rental of my property to my exact requirements. Throughout the process I dealt with a number of Alan Francis staff and all were really helpful and made the entire process so much easier. Would highly recommend them.
J. D.
Recently viewed a few properties with the lettings team, kept me informed and up to date with all properties within my criteria. Great staff and always polite.

Wow! Simply fantastic, personal service. Such dedicated team members and nothing was too much trouble. From instruction, to first class photos, a cool video of my property, getting me a successful buyer, and tracking the sale at every stage through to completion. Just outstanding and I would highly recommend their service.

We have recently used Alan Francis to sell our property and also purchased our new home through them.
Josh was amazing he came to the property we were selling talked us through the process and kept us in the loop as much as possible, when Josh was unable to kept us up to date Craig followed up.
We are extremely grateful for the all the support they have provided us in both our sale and purchase, therfore we would highly recommend Alan Francis.
Thank you to Josh, Craig and all the team at Alan Francis.
P. S.
Forget all your negative thought about estate agents...There's a great team at Alan Francis. I recently purchased a house via Alan Francis; Josh Kennedy and the team handled the deal smoothly and professionally. They managed a novice vendor through the minefield of house the sale process to ensure I was able to buy the house in a stress free timely manner. These guys are very good at their job.
K. B.
I have just sold my house through Alan Francis and the service I received was exceptional. Craig and Jack were brilliant throughout the entire process, from the initial valuation through to completion. I had the added complication of selling my house from overseas, but thanks to the excellent communication this wasn’t an issue. If you are looking for a professional, efficient and organised estate agent, then I can’t recommend Alan Francis enough. Thanks guys!
D. C.
Would definitely let and sell through Alan Francis again. Professional service and competitively priced. My go to agent for the future especially for lettings due to the personal service received. I recommend dealing with Lauren Gee in lettings; simply delightful and professional to deal with.
O. J.
Service and staff very professional and efficient. Highly recommend Jordan Garner who was very helpful, friendly and provided professional service so that the letting process was very easy and stress free. Agency is providing useful and good quality videos and pictures prior viewing. I would recommend the agency to anyone.
S. k.
Holly was extremely helpful liasing with the contractor on my behalf to transfer white goods for our tenant.
Attentive and regular communication which kept me at ease knowing Holly with get this resolved in a timely manner.
Which she did very promptly keeping another tenant happy.
M. P.
The whole team we're fantastic and they made the entire process much easier than we had anticipated. Our contact, Jack Conway, managed to get us an offer on our property within 48 hours! and he went out of his way to help us find a perfect new home!
There was never any pressure and communication was great throughout. It was very reassuring to have a local team that we could visit at any time to check on everything and ask for advise.
A massive thanks to everyone at Alan Francis, we won't be in a rush to move again but when or if we do, we'll be coming straight to you guys.
Thank you,
Matt & Keighly

Alan Francis have just sold my house. The manager Craig Cambridge came to the house to do the valuation he was very polite and it was clear he knew his trade inside out. He offered a good price straight away which I like a lot of other agents started high to try and rip us off. We decided to go ahead and within two hours our house was on right move with floor plans what a service. The staff were very friendly and helpful and always arranged viewings that suited us. Within a week we received our first offer and within two weeks we accepted one we were both very happy with. The staff kept us updated with the progress of the sale and gave us lots of information and advice about the process. I recommended Alan Francis to my sister and they sold her house within a week which she was deligted with
S. S.
I have been renting with Alan Francis for about 3 years now and it has been a pleasure being with them. Any issues are dealt with immediatly and they are great at communicating with us. They are even helping us with issues that are nothing to do with the estate agents or landlord (neighbour issues). I would highly recommend them to anyone.
J. B.
I would highly recommend Alan Francis to sell your home. They found buyers for our home within days and treated our home with respect during the viewings. Jack and Craig were brilliant and kept in touch with me constantly throughout the whole sale process. They assisted with chasing solicitors/other agents when necessary. I would definitely use them again without hesitation. Fantastic service thanks guys!
L. S.
We bought a flat in Broughton and was looking to rent it out. Ben Stock was recommended to us by a friend. He did an amazing job start to finish. As we were renting for the first time, Ben explained everything very clearly and in detail. He came out, took the pictures, put up our property online and found a tenant within weeks. He was excellent at evaluating the property and communicating to us at every stage. Definitely recommend Ben and Alan Francis team.
J. B.
Alan Francis was absolutely spot on with their service at all stages of the house purchase. No stress, no fuss, no drama. We would definitely recommend using them.
T. M.
I have recently moved out from a property that was managed by Alan Francis and I can only say that their management throughout my tenancy period was impeccable.
Lauren Gee was my main contact, she always showed high levels of professionalism and offered a great deal of help even with the smallest requests. I give them guys thumbs up and would definitely consider them for future moves
C. R.
Thank you to the sales team for their hard work and support throughout the process of my sale. Alan Francis sold my house within lighting speed and although there were some delays (none caused by the estate agents) we got there, eventually and I appreciate all the effort made to reach completion. I would definitely recommend Alan Francis to my family or friends wanting to sell their homes for a good price with great service included. Keep up the fab work, guys :)
M. K.
I am renting a property through Alan Francis and had the opportunity to interact with Alex Tollan. He is one of the best estate agents I have had the opportunity to interact with in the last 5 years. He was professional, and went to great lengths to understand my requirements given I had rejected few properties after visits :). One of the most honest guys who will never sugarcoat you into a deal. He was and still is so approachable and friendly that at some point I decided I will only rent via Alan Francis purely based on how well I was treated by Alex during my home hunt. I will highly recommend Alex Tollan and of course Alan Francis as estate agents. Keep up the good work.
C. K.
We have a number of properties that we sold via Alan Francis as well as 5 properties rented via Alan Francis. Their service has been outstanding and I can recommend them without any reservations!
V. W.
I was with Purple Bricks for a year and nothing but silence ,.called up Alan Francis and the house was sold within 2 week's. I should have gone back to them in the first place as I'd had excellent service from them a couple of times back in 2002. I have to give a big up tho to Josh Kennedy who found me the loveliest house to rent once I'd completed the sale and I'm really happy there. A great company. 10 out of ten from me.
A. W.
I am in the midst of changing tenants and have been working with Holly Wade. There were several things to be done in my property and Holly has been extremely proffesional and efficient in helping me deal with those issues. Everything has been arranged and will be finished prior to the new tenants moving in and this is all down to Holly. She has been so helpful and cheerful that the whole process has been made so much easier. So thank you Holly, you are amazing.

C. A.
Had the opportunity to meet Josh today. His understanding of my problem and vivid explanation has solved the problem already. Josh thank you so much for your great understanding and excellent communication. Once again thank you for your support.
J. B.
Very helpful with helping us find a rental when we relocated back to the UK. Their professionalism naturally encouraged us to go to them when we we expatriating again after only 2 years and, for the past couple of years they have managed our property pro-actively and with a great attitude and friendliness. They have access to efficient and reasonably priced Contractors and it has been a smooth process for us. We can highly recommend Lauren and Amy. Great team!
R. B.
I have rented a property through Alan Francis estate agent from April 2015 to October 2016. I have rarely come across such a professional estate agent in UK and need to take time to say "Alan Francis service was outstanding and to the highest standards of renting industry".
From the point I viewed the property till the time I moved out, the attention and support provided was brilliant. Whenever there was something to be sorted at the property, they provided service on the same day or next. Overall, I find them to be one of the best professional property management group who stick to the promise they make.
Last but not the least, I need to say they have not deducted a penny from my deposit. They are genuine with the check out inventory process.
Message for future tenants, "leave the property as if it was yours and trust me you get back your money"
Thanks & Regards,

I rented a studio through Alan Francis for almost 1.5 years.
I never had any issues with the office ; they were pretty responsive and my issues were fixed quite swiftly.
I had mostly interacted with Mr. Jones and Mr. Cambridge, both were extremely helpful and professional.
I certainly recommend to check through their site in case you are looking after a property in MK.
C. B.
We have used Alan Francis before and found them very friendly and
very professional.Josh Kennedy promptly came out to our newly refurbished studio and we negotiated the asking price. Within hours we had viewings and in just a few days Josh had Negotiated a sale at the full asking price, Josh and the team at Alan Francis worked hard for us to achieve our sale among what seemed a mirriad of offers and counter offers. It's been a real pleasure working with Josh He's also a real fun guy we've enjoyed some laughs.
G. P.
Excellent service. Jack Conway was the agent who helped sell my mothers house as she has had to go into sheltered accommodation. Extremely understanding of the situation. As I live in Glasgow and wasn't able to oversee viewings, Jack took care of these for me and my mother, and kept in touch regularly with updates as to how the sale was progressing. Always made himself available to answer questions via phone or respond to email's. Well presented brochure helped sell the house in a short space of time. Happy to recommend Alan Francis if you need a professional and courteous service.
J. G.
I had a fantastic experience buying and selling with Alan Francis. I dealt with Craig, who went above and beyond to ensure the sale went through smoothly; and Jack, who put my house on the market, and delivered on every promise he made! I've been delighted - great communication, friendly team and a brilliant outcome. I couldn't recommend them more.
S. A.
Renting has become tough enough without having terrible estate agents who lull you into a false sense of security until you are actually homeless. But I have had an absolutely first class experience with Alan Francis from the moment I filled in my application form until now whilst I am one of their tenants; My experience so far has been hassle free as their customer service has proved to be second to none. There were some initial teething problems regarding referencing though no fault of Alan Francis but Nicky and Daniel had been very patient and supportive in getting the referencing right. Corresponding through emails and telephone was efficient and all queries were answered in a timely manner. A thoroughly professional team at the Milton Keynes office particularly Nicky, Daniel, Savannah and of course Shani who all have been incredibly helpful, knowledgeable and really went their extra mile. I strongly recommend Alan France and will certainly prefer to stay with them until I am renting. Thank you for providing excellent and professional services so far!!!
S. H.
We recently moved into our rental in Walton Park.
The experience from the business to the fun end of this process has been managed extremely well.
David and I found Ben really easy to work with.
He is enthusiastic, personable and professional - all the qualities we would hope for in a Lettings agent.
Thanks again to a great team.
David and Sue.

I used Alan Francis few times for all range of their services in the past 2.5 years. Last week I sold my flat with them and I want especially to thank Dominic Myers. He was not only professional but went out of the way to help me with my much needed fast track sale chasing the solicitors, talking to the buyer, calling me out of the office hours updating me on the progress, organising last minute property maintenance etc. We managed to complete the sale within 5 weeks. Jack Conway was also good.
Had positive experience with their letting department as well. The letting agent Nicky Maynard was very kind, helpful and efficient.
I would use AF in the future as long as they manage to keep their best people.
P.S. Over the past 10 years as a landlord I worked with few agencies including high street names and many of them, unfortunately are truly dreadful so AF was the pleasant relief and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them.
m. r.
Before I signed up for a lease I was promised so much help with sorting out?
I signed the lease and paid deposit
Now I can't get anyone to call me back
I have no heating
the kitchen work tops wet and blown
kitchen cupboards moldy
fridge rusty?
Since I wrote this review a wonderful person called Lauren contacted me from Alan Francis.
She has dealt with almost every problem with the flat
Lauren you are a star you are amazing and you definitely deserve a pay rise
thank you dose not seam enough

Ever since I started my portfolio way back in March 2002, I have remained loyal to Alan Francis Lettings Agents. Various other letting agents have on many occasion tried to offer to look after my investments, even at a reduced rate. Dan Vincent and the whole lettings team have always been there with the most valuable advice which on many occasion has been priceless! Congratulations for providing me with a consistent and outstanding service!
S. P.
We are moving from Switzerland to Milton Keynes and found our rental property through Alan Francis. We were on a tight schedule to find a house but still had an incredibly smooth and pleasant experience. We would particularly like to thank Ben Stock, who really went out of his way to accommodate us.
I. B.
At Alan Francis Milton Keynes the lettings agent I dealt with, Ben, was fantastic at listening my concerns, he had the patience to explain my options and together we found the best option for my family. I will certainly recommend Ben Stock to help you find the best property. All staff I went in contact with so far was friendly and professional.

“I have recently sold my property in Old Farm Park through Alan Francis, I felt compelled to leave a review because of the great service I received.
From start right to completion the team at Alan Francis worked so hard for me, going above and beyond to get the sale through on time.
My point of contact was Jack Conway. He first marketed the property for me, then found a great buyer and then kept me up to date with the sales progression (even while he was on a weekend away miles away from Milton Keynes). WHAT A GREAT GUY!
Selling a property is always stressful, but having a trustworthy agent working for you can make the difference between sale and having no sale at all. The team at Alan Francis were the difference.
If you are looking to sell your home, then believe me Alan Francis are a great shout. “

Hi recently viewed a property with the assistance of Nicky Andrew and was really appreciative of the professionalism and guidance of Nicky.
Keep up the good work Nicky!
High recommend!!
R. H.
Dealing with Josh Kennedy at Alan Francis has been an absolute pleasure. His guidance and feedback has been top class and I am so happy he picked the phone up when I called to arrange a viewing. He understands your motivations and needs for a new space and has achieved the price and terms I was looking for. A credit to Alan Francis, keep up the good work.
s. s.
Help you to find nice property for letting no hidden surprises and good property maintenance team they have.
P. N.
Alan Francis recently sold our house and they were a pleasure to deal with through the whole process. From the excellent photos on Right Move, super professional viewings and all the way through to completion. I honestly couldnt have asked for more. I have to say the Craig and Josh gave exceptional service from start to finish - thanks to the whole team!
D. G.
We have lived since 2014 in the same property managed by Alan Francis. During all this time, we have received an excellent treatment from the staff side. They always took care of all the issues that have arisen and we haven´t had any problem during all this time.
We have been very happy living in this property and never wanted to change to another one during all our time living in Milton Keynes.
After this good experience, we definitely recommend Alan Francis.
D. H.
A nice family run business, who are professional, polite, and understand the importance of customer service. Alan Francis have done an amazing job of maintaining a positive 'customer first' culture through my many years of dealing with them, setting a leading example for other agencies to follow.

Service was brilliant all round from the staff in the office to the agent (Ben) out in the field. We were shown a couple of properties and Ben provided answers to all of questions, was friendly and very easy to talk to. Made us feel comfortable, did not rush us to make a decision or put any pressure on at all. Would definitely recommend, was much better than another company who we had viewed properties with on the same day.

I've previously had really bad experiences with estate agents in Milton Keynes but with Alan Francis thankfully they were superb. Jack and Dominic were down to earth, honest and professional throughout. They sold my house from advert to completion in just a few weeks and kept me updated regularly ...would definitely recommend Alan Francis !!

Due to job move me and my family left Milton Keynes over 10 years ago. We let out our property there through Alan Francis. Over so many years I had no trouble in getting the right tenants into the house, and had no issues of late rent payment, and all the maintenance work had been organized by Alan Francis and completed at competitive prices. Over such a long time the property remainds in a good condition. I am impressed by the professional services provided by the Alan Francis team, and happy our house is taken care of by a pair of able and caring hands.

Having lost a buyer for an investment property just as Covid lockdown started Josh Kennedy has been an absolute legend in finding me a replacement tenant to mitigate financial losses and then selling it with the tenant in place. I live in Australia so being able to rely on him to manage the processes has been a great experience. A great guy to deal with. Ask for Josh!

We recently relocated from abroad and from the time I contacted Alan Francis to the time we moved into the rental property the service we received was friendly, helpful and very professional. In particular I would like to thank Ben Stock for his excellent customer service and for understanding our needs and helping us secure the correct property. I would highly recommend Alan Francis.
P. K.
I have just used Alan Francis to purchase my first buy-to-let property. I found them to be among the best. When I started, I registered with several agents but once I met Adam he really seemed to know what I was looking for. He did not have anything straight away but kept me updated with everything that was coming on to the market. He called me straight after taking a particular property on and got me a viewing the very next day. It was just what I was looking for, Adam came to the viewing prepared with the sort of rents I could expect.
Once the sale had exchanged I met with the lettings manager, Daniel and he walked me through every stage of renting my property. Again I was made to feel very comfortable.
The sale completed and Daniel had 3 people viewing the property the next day, I am now a very happy landlord enjoying the rent coming in, next year I will be looking for another investment so I will definitely be contacting Alan Francis to find my second investment.

Excellent service. Craig Cambridge was the agent who helped us buying the property. I find them extremely helpful, honest & courteous unlike the vast majority out there. Very straightforward, reasonable, and organised service. Craig Cambridge was very helpful, kept in touch regularly with updates. Always made himself available to answer questions via phone or respond to email's. Brilliant estate agency. A great personable team. Definitely use them again.

We have recently signed a rental contract through Alan Francis and we’ve been very happy with their prompt replies, great customer service and exceeding our expectations with the ‘pre move in’ repairs and cleaning. We have finally found a letting agency who keep their promises and want to provide the best service they can. Thanks to Nicky and the team.

After deciding to sell our much loved apartment we contacted Alan Francis, and after a visit from Jack we decided they were the agents for us. I cannot fault the service they provided. This was the first property we had ever sold, so as newbies we felt a little daunted by the prospect. From the get go Jack was professional, kept in contact and gave us all the advice we required. Once the apartment was sold, which was very quickly, we were kept up to date by Craig whenever he had news to tell us. Throughout the process they have been willing to answer any questions I have had, no matter how small or silly and we are truly happy that we made the decision to have them market our property. I would recommend them to anyone looking to sell in MK.
J. L.
Harvey helped me throughout the entire process and was always available to help me with any queries I had. Would definitely recommend him and the agency.
J. O.
Recently sold our house through Alan Francis and we were delighted with the service. Our agent was Jack Conway who was extremely helpful and kept us informed at all stages of the process! Very pleased with the whole process and would happily recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy and efficient estate agent.
L. M.
Alan Francis managed the sale of my property and purchase of a new property. I was kept updated throughout and communication was great. It's nice knowing you can walk into an office and be welcomed with happy faces that want to help you. Thank you Josh and Jeremy
M. R.
As a non UK resident, I had to sell a property within the UK which I had to sell while being abroad. Since I'm not from the UK, I was extremely unclear & apprehensive about the entire process.
Alan Francis, were very helpful and constantly engaged me through the processes. Craig provided exemplary service and kept me constantly informed. I was able to close the transaction successfully due to their guidance and assistance, and would recommend them to anyone looking to avail their services.
Thank you to Craig, Jaydon and the rest of the Alan Francis team!!!!
T. D.
Our experience with Alan Francis and especially Holly Wade has been amazing. Their service has gone above and beyond and I absolutely recommend them. Thank you very much!
C. H.
Amazing service in finding me a tenant in a few hours, and who moved in 6 days later. The tenant was very happy to be taken to the flat, full check in done with him, meters read, etc etc. Appropriate level of assertiveness in negotiating. All very professional. Money and paperwork arrived promptly. If my contact Steve was not there to answer questions, someone else seemed to know what was going on. Very happy landlord, tenant also well looked after so should be happy. Thanks to Steve and the team.
A. B.
I consider Alan Francis to be a good agency. The property were I live in is nice, but many things were old or damaged. Alan Francis managed to repair them all. My personal advice is to write them an email rather than ring them up. This speeds up things a lot. Among all the agents I have dealt with, I have found Ms Shani Cary to be the most efficient.
V. B.
We have been working with Alan Francis for 10years approximately and they never fail to rent or sell the properties we have had.
We always find them professional & friendly & are pleased to say they always have fed back information on how each viewing went.
They are the best!!
Thank you all for your hard work commitment & dedication over the past ten years guys & girls it's been very much appreciated.
S. A.
Brad and Leo dealt with the sale of my house. The house sold quickly and communication was always prompt, helpful and polite. I would definitely use Alan Francis again.
K. P.
I am a new landlord and had many questions which Ben Stock was able to answer extremely quickly. He walked me through the whole process and was great to deal with.
A few years ago, I bought the place through Alan Francis, and they were great then too, so I can’t recommend Ben and the team at Alan Francis highly enough!
P. C.
I FULLY RECOMMEND ALAN FRANCIS TEAM !
When I came to leave in UK I had I struggled myself to find the right property to rent until I met Alan Francis team. In particular I got in contact with Steve Lloyd-Jones who understood my needs and offered me the best compromise between price and quality.
During my stay in Milton Keynes, as a tenant, Steve follow up promptly any particular matter regarding the apartment I rented. So ask for Steve, he will support you to find the best offer to match your needs.
C. S.
Alan Francis is a good real estate agency. People are honest, kind and helpful. We had no problem with our flat. Absolutely recommended.
M. C.
Ben Stock has been amazing with making our rental process painless. We were shown 3 properties according to what we were looking for, we chose one and a week later we are now moving in. Super happy and super greatful. Please contact Ben for all your property needs. 5 star for these guys!
OK so a Year and a bit later after my previous review on Alan Francis Ltd Staff I have more to say. We had a strange sound and smell coming from our Boiler. We not familiar with boilers as we dont use them where we are from. Our direct contact at AF is Lauren Gee, i emailed her casually about the Boiler and soon after got a call. Lauren was extremely concerned there was a smell and informed this is dangerous for us. Lauren immediately sent out a Team to assess the problem. With in a few days we had a new Boiler installed, its so quiet and free of any harmful gasses. So happy! Thanks to Lauren Gee for sorting this for us so fast!
A. O.
We have a property in 2012 and handed over the keys to Alan Francis and left to live abroad. During this time they looked after the property, dealt with all problems, rented it out and at the end sold it for us. They were amazing! I felt really confident that the property was in good hands, the staff are very friendly and on top of things all the time. Highly recommend them.... Thank you Alan Francis
J. G.
Since these agents have taken over the contract I have found them to be efficient and responsive in undertaking any of my queries. They have ensured that the lease was extended and for a longer period of time. Also the maintenance man that replaced the external door was prompt and efficient, thank you all
D. B.
Estate Agents can have somewhat of a bad reputation but Alan Francis deservedly bucks that trend!!
Being a landlord for over 15 years I can honestly say that I would now use No OTHER Estate Agent. They are brilliant, flexible, charming, efficient, tenacious in a non pushy way, and get excellent results.
In the last couple of years they have sold 4 properties for us and its all been plain sailing.
Thank you Craig and Jack especially :-)
M. C.
Recently sold properties in Newport Pagnell and shenley Brook End with Alan Francis.
The easiest 5 stars I’ve ever rated someone. Having seen how Alan francis operates from a buyer’s point of view , this is an agent you want selling your house. Right from our first meeting with Alan Francis i knew they were the agent for me. Josh and Jaydon were exceptional - so talented, helpful, knowledgeable. They looked after my sale and kept me informed of progress throughout the whole process. The sale went smoothly and I can genuinely say that I couldn’t be happier with the services received. Any prospective buyer will certainly be well looked after!/ if /when I come to sell again, Alan Francis estate agents will definitely be the first agent I call.

I have been renting through Alan Francis for the last 6 years. They have always been exceptionally helpful in every way. Lauren is such a lovely person and always goes the extra mile to help. Excellent company to deal with.
C.
We've rented the same property since 2004, in 2010 our landlord engaged Alan Francis as letting agent. Since then the service we have received from them has been second to none. Recently there were problems with the boiler in the property, it had packed up completely. Lauren has been excellent in getting this sorted, even sorting out British Gas! Lauren is a great ambassador for Alan Francis and is fully deserving of all the praise I can give. 👍👍
Update: I'd like to add that complications arose during the boiler installation. Again Lauren Gee was able to get things sorted really quickly. High five to Lauren 🖐🖐
s. o.
I have been with Allan Francis for six years now in this property. Their services are second to none. In the past few weeks, I was really impressed by the speedy response to my repair requests ranging from Radiator leakage to door insulation. I recommend Lauren Gee for award as Allan Francis staff of the year 2017 .
C.
As a seller Alan Francis was far more proactive than my previous Estate agent. They gave me regular updates as to what has happened on the buyers side, and in one instance information the buyer was still waiting for and hadn't yet received (an email I sent, did not generate an automated receipt reply, it got lost! ). These little things make all the difference.
K. S.
Exceptional service provided by Alan Francis from start to finish. In particular, Josh Kennedy was extremely professional, reliable and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. In his absence, I also found the rest of the team very helpful and professional. Highly recommend Alan Francis!
A. D.
Better than most. I'm not generally a fan of letting agents, but Alan Francis (and Lauren in particular) have actually been quite good to deal with. We had some issues with referencing after changing the names on our contract and Lauren went out of her way to help us resolve these issues. After all that I'm happy to be staying with Alan Francis rather than taking a risk with another letting agent. Cheers Guys!
C. D. O.
We rented a property through Alan Francis and they made the process so easy. If we had any concerns they were quick to respond and resolve nay issues we had. Special mention to Lauren who is always so helpful and friendly and always responds quickly to emails queries.
M. K.
The only estate agent we dealt with who made you feel you were more than a number from the first to the last call. Professional but friendly and always returned calls. Craig went above and beyond at getting issues resolved in the stressful lead up to exchange and completion. Would have no hesitation recommending them and would use them again in the future - excellent value for money
D. M.
I'm pleased to say that Alan Francis estate agents have exercised real maturity and experience across the board when dealing with me. Without fail I've been impressed by every single person on every single occasion. Thanks for your help and a great property.
M. R.
Very helpful agents - I got locked out of my house just now and called them if they can help to open the door. They came home straightaway and gave me the spare key to open the door to let me in. Very helpful agents. :)
A. G. U.
Had some problems with referencing on a potential new flatmate, not the fault of Alan Francis, but they really helped resolved it quickly. Had to pass some extra details on for the referencing check, thinking it could take a few days, and it was done within the hour, ensuring a smooth change over.
Dealt mostly with Shani Cary who has excellent customer service skills; very impressed.
S. L.
I arrived in the UK without any experience about renting apartment policy. I checked several agencies to find my first home here in Milton Keynes. From the different review in google and other websites, I contact Alan Francies. Abygale who was professional, understanding and helpful assists us to find our house. Helping us during credit check with HomeLet with pursuing our case and also showing us different options according to our needs. Personally, I am not so happy with the procedure of house renting here when you cannot meet the owner and all your communications is based on agency but as I understand it is a standard system here in the UK. It was a bit difficult to see the Abygale who was so helpful until the contract signing time, act as the representative of the owner and you as tenant feel alone in the procedure. The procedure which put the agent as the representative of the owner in front of the tenant (not as middle chain role between tenant and owner) is difficult to understand for me. It makes you feel alone in the last and important part of tenancy; signing the contract! We passed the step and now we are in our house; almost settled.
As the Alan Francis act as representative of the owner, all maintenance should pass through them. We faced with our first problem after month, oven in the kitchen stopped working. Again I had to write for Alan Francis people that I have a problem. The first three communications were not efficient until Lauren start to communicate with me and everything just changed. She was so helpful and tried to solve the problem as fast as possible. They sent a contractor to our house for the visit and also fixing the problem. He was fantastic and skilled and solved the problem fast. I enjoyed his approach to solving the electric problem of the oven. Thank you, Lauren and Abygale.
It is worth to note that the agent's fee for Alan Francis is convenient and reasonable. Definitely, I am recommending this agent.
E. G.
Massive Thank You !!! to Josh Kennedy for absolutely brilliant job.
Josh helped us to win the battle with our sluggish and incompetent lawyers.
His involvement, advice and amount of time spent on phone calls and emails were priceless. If it wasn't Josh we would probably never had our dream house. Always professional, encouraging and positive pushed the case forward to the end.
P. S.
We decided to sell a luxury apartment which we owned as "buy to let" investors and invited Jack Conway of Alan Francis Estate Agents to pitch for the business.
Impressed by his professional approach and manner we decided to market the property at "offers in excess of" his suggested price, agreed a fee and signed up.
We had already done our research and felt that the price was spot on.
Jack liaised with departing tenants to take photos and, 3 hours after photos were taken the first viewing took place. this produced an offer. 2 more viewings took place that evening and the following morning we had agreed a sale at above the OIEO guide.
The liaison between the Agents, Solicitors, Vendor & Purchaser were handled extremely well and a few short weeks later we completed.
We are experienced property buyers/sellers having moved house 20 times and this was one of our smoothest ever transactions.
Thanks Jack!
S. W.
Huge thanks and Kudos to Shani and the team for getting us through a very difficult change of tenancy! Following an increase in rent and changes to the Landlord's insurance, myself, partner, and young daughter were facing homelessness, due to my income falling short of allowing us to pass referencing. Had it not been for AF's continued efforts, going above and beyond the normal channels, and their dedication to their tenants, we would have been forced out of our home of almost 4 years and into temporary accommodation or worse.
They did absolutely everything they could to keep us off the streets and we cannot be more grateful to them. Fantastic service, wonderful people and a truly 1st class team!
M. F.
Alan Francis Nailed it. After being let down by another agent resulting in my property being empty for over a month. Alan Francis happened to manage the house next door and after a brief chat with one of their agents (Steve) who noticed I was working on the house expressed they would be really keen to take it on and could have a tenant signed up within a week. The next day I rang them and asked them to take care of it, it was professionally photographed and advertised within hours, in 5 days a new tenant had been referenced, and 11 days after that my new tenant was moved in. The staff were so all so proactive at making the process easier for me that I decided to go fully managed. Thank you Steve, Daniel, Abbey and Amy.
T. D.
A very positive experience with Alan Francis for a renewal. Inspection well managed by Holly. All in all a really good service.
A. A.
Harvey Staddon is one of best agents I had to deal with. Everything in front no miss communication just an problem solved .. a new house for my family thx Harvey

Josh and all at Alan Francis have been outstanding throughout the whole selling process being professional and patient and keeping communication at a high level. We will definitely recommend and use them again in the future. Thank you once again Mr and Mrs Sherry.
N. H.
The lettings at Alan Francis have managed to help us significantly in a time of crisis. All staff were very polite, organised and willing to provide assistance for all our needs,. They understood from the very first moment what we were looking for, considered thoughtfully our budget and location restrictions. We will definitely be consulting Alan Francis should we need a new place in the future. We appreciate all their help and extra effort and we highly recommend, many thanks to you all, Nicola
M. R.
I have rented an apartment from Alan Francis since about 3 years now. They have been very considerate about all the problems that have been reported and addressed it on priority. They have been helpful in all instances and have not given me any chance to complain.
In the recent past I have been dealing with Shani - so special Thanks to her!!
M. C.
Very straightforward, reasonable, and organised service end to end. Initial issues with condition of flat resolved before move in. Steve Jones was very helpful, and performed both the check in and check out which meant an accurate assessment of the condition of the flat when I left. Deposit returned within 10 days as stated. Would recommend this agency to anyone renting in the Milton Keynes area.
H. B.
What a wonderful 5 STAR service Alan Francis team in Milton Keynes. We are so happy with the level of care and attension you provided during our stay in Crown Hill.

We were very happy with the service that we received throughout our stay at the property, feeling that it was both professional and yet also personally engaged. We shall certainly look up for Alan francis if/when we come to rent/buy/sell the property, and will be recommending them to friends and family. We would like to add our personal thanks to Daniel who has been amazing throughout our stay at the property. I should say he is very professional, friendly, knowledgeable. Always kept us informed, updated and offered lots of useful advice. I would also like to thank Katie who was always there for any problem or query was answered straight away and her guidance was there throughout.
Wishing you every success in the future. Vijay M Kumar

Fab service from Holly. We talked about a new bathroom light, she got it sorted the next day! Bathroom in dire need of renovation - spoke to Holly and had a contractor come round to have a look the

J. L.
Have used Alan Francis for over a decade for tenant find services on several properties I own. Over those years I have had a fantastic service from them, especially from Daniel Vincent, one of the team, whom I have had a lot of contact with. Daniel, who is very professional, makes my life easy as he takes care of everything and basically gets the job done. I think the continuity of having the same person there year after year has really helped. Ultimately I really feel like a valued cuto!er and I get looked after!

Ben Stocks of Alan Francis has handled the letting of my late sister's house exceptionally well....I say exceptionally well as I let houses with three other estate agents and can judge his performance. This man can keep track of events and does what he says he will do ....you can't ask for more than that !
S. M.

I have been residing at an address for 3.5 years with Alan Francis managing the property. Although I did not have many problems with the property, I always found the team there to be friendly and professional and always willing to help.
I would definitely recommend them to any tenant looking to let in the Milton Keynes area.
S. R.
You judge a company by how well they deal with things when it goes wrong and the team at Alan Francis were brilliant, especially Shani. I'm very happy with the work they did for me so much so that i've put other property through them and their communication and service is first class.
S. E.
The Lettings team have looked after my rental property for about the last 12 years. They have always responded to both the needs of my tenants and my own. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.
A. B.
Great lettings agent; prompt at dealing with repair requests, very helpful and friendly staff, and no funny business with deposit return at the end of the tenancy. Would definately recommend Alan Francis to prospective tenants.
S. C.
Excellent agent, got viewings in fast which led to offers. Always quick to respond to calls! Heavily recommend going with them to sell a property.
T. F.
Alan Francis have been my letting agent for multiple properties for many years - yes there's's been difficult tenants - repairs and challenges - always resolved - never a missed payment or any doubt that they take my pain away as a landlord ! I wouldn't hesistate to recommend them.
T. P.
I've been involved with Alan Francis for nearly twenty years and the level of professionalism with which they deal with all aspects of selling and letting properties is second to none. The Alan Francis team provide reliable and efficient service.

Brad and Josh were incredible in helping us secure our dream home. Very professional and responsive estate agents.
C. B.
Great experience dealing with Josh Kennedy and Charlie Duke at Alan Francis for the sale of my house. This is the third one they have sold for me over the past few years, always great service, always professional.
C. B.
Great estate agents...very impressed with the whole process. The sales guy (Jack) what a great guy, worked with us to get what we wanted and was a brilliant sales person.
So glad we went with alan francis and if we moved again we would do the same.
N. H.
I write as the past landlord of Anita Teelanal and in the defence of Alan Francis. The property that was rented to Miss Teelanal was in very good condition and was cleaned thoroughly & repainted by myself at the start of the tenancy and at no time did I or my agent receive any complaint about its condition prior too or following the start of tenancy. It is true that the property does not have central heating only electric storage heating, if this form of heating was an issue for the tenant she should not have taken the tenancy let alone renewed it and continued on a periodic bases for two years. What has been omitted is that on many occasions the rent was paid late and sometimes in part. My agent acted correctly with regards to the maintenance and they and myself carried out repairs, (including me being requested to change a light bulb!), but this did not include the cupboard door as it was broken by the tenant not locking it despite being requested to do so. Unfortunately this is an incident of how to hit the agent who has had to make deductions because the property was left in very poor condition. I have always found the service from Alan Francis very professional and fair to both Landlords and Tenants alike.
A. J.
Alan Francis, have been super helpful with the purchasing process so far for a new property and have been quick to respond to any questions. As a first time buyer, I feel up to date with the key information needed as and when. Thanks for all you help so far and a big thank you to Cheralyn Lane!
P. V.
The whole process of selling our house was expertly handled by Josh and his team, from providing feedback following every viewing, to handling the negotiations over the sale.
A. P.
AF have managed my property that I let out for many years. Very honest and reliable. They look after my tenants as well as myself
J. D.
Overall great experience! Very responsive, professional and convenient the way they dealt with my queries. The whole proces only took few weeks. Would recommend 100%! 🙏
L. I.
Excellent service from Harvey Staddon. Helpful and knowledgeable and the rest of the team as well.Would highly recommend Alan Francis !
S. B.
Alan Francis took over from another agent and their superior quality was instantly recognised. The communication was a lot better and I had confidence that what I was being told was true.
V. M.
Harvey very helpful in getting us all sorted and moved in thank you
R. J. N.
Great company, they are truly professional.
We were always kept informed about the status of the property we were buying and any queries I had were dealt with the same day, Want to thank Craig and all the team for making the move much less stressful.
A. M.
When the chips are down, you really see what people are made of; Alan Francis (Craig in particular), were pivatol in pushing through the sale of my property under what turned out to be tight timelines, despite an extremley inefficient solicitor. Regular contact, prompt responses and taking action when neccessary, they facilitated the sale of my property to the best of their abilities. I would reccomend them to anyone thinking of buying/selling a property in the MK region
S. H.
I have had a very positive experience with Alan Francis. I have found them particularly responsive and helpful. Communication has been spot on and I would highly recommend them. Shani in particular has been a great help in assisting with my move
R. k.
It was pleasure to deal with AF. They were friendly and helpful. We got our transaction done in no time. Easy peasey!!! 😊 We recommend and hope to use them in future for sure.
S. D. V.
Lovely sales team, got to know us well and didn't just push for our custom over anything, felt personable and tailored to our needs. Thanks to Brad, Josh & Leo.

in this company, I like how it works, I have this company for 1 year and 7 months, from which I will have to leave because the house only has one room, I need 2, that's the reason, I especially like a salesman, it's called Ben, a to be incredible, humble, humane, attentive, honestly I have no words to describe, she will be a person I will never forget, and who was always there to help an incredible being, a good employee, they should all be like that.

My reference is based on the people, and if they are no longer at the organisation in the future, please don't be disappointed.
Shani and the team were perfect, we rented a maisonnette at 13 Woodall Close Middleton Milton Keynes MK10 9JZ. It was an experience that really worth our while.
We maintained the property to the best of our ability, and deposit was paid back to us in full.

I recently moved into a property managed by Alan Francis and must admit the service was brilliant.The entire team involved with my move was great but special thanks to Nicky Adrews, She was fantastic with great customer service and made this process look easy for us.I'll recommend them to anyone.

As a woman stranded with a flat battery, parked just outside Alan Francis Estate agents, these kind chaps came to my aid and couldn't have been more helpful or caring. There are definitely good souls in the world. Thank you so much chaps X

I've been letting property for 33 years, and using Alan Francis for the last 15, and they are by far the best letting agents I have ever come across!

Mitch made a good, professional first impression upon showing me 3 possible lets. He took his time and didn’t rush me. Can’t justify the pricing of the places I saw due to their lack of space unfortunately, but my mind may change in the future!

Lauren Gee does her job very well. She is prompt in responding to any service calls. I have also experienced that although she is out of office, should still address the service call and assign it to appropriate person to resolve it.

Alan Francis were very good they managed to get me 13,000 pounds more than any of the other estate agent I contacted.Jack who valued my property was easy to talk to and did not try to baffle me with science.If I need to sell another property I would use Alan Francis again.

Josh Kennedy – what a legend! A friendly and happy fellow from the land of skippy and BBQs. His attitude toward the client is second to none and he goes above and beyond to try and get the job done.
