When two friends, James Gibbs and Paul Gillespie opened the doors of their first estate agency in Ruislip in 1991, they shared a vision of becoming the finest property service company in the area. Little did they know that their enthusiasm and commitment to service would create a company that would set the standar
d for the industry to follow.
Gibbs Gillespie is a dynamic, multi office team with a hard earned reputation for achieving the highest price in the marketplace. But we’ve never rested on our laurels and continue to introduce new ideas and innovative practices.
Innovations such as Be First, our buyer and tenant personalised matching system; Just Listed, a high quality, colour, property magazine produced monthly; and professional photography, floorplans and video tours, have all been adopted by many others in an endeavour to emulate the success of Gibbs Gillespie.
Gibbs Gillespie aims to be the very best of the best. We strive to shine in every area of our business, continually reinventing ourselves as we find better ways to achieve our clients' goals. We are a learning organisation. We regularly review our structure, systems and processes, asking ourselves: How can we improve our service to our clients?

Worst experience.
I gave them a notice to move on 8th December and they told me the notice will not be counted until the next bill date and I will have to wait 2 months to vacate. But most property notice period is one month. I am forced to pay rent for extra months and pay rent at 2 places.

Gibbs - Gillespie - estate agents who run with the Deposit
The Set UP
Gibbs - Gillespie not Gibbs Gilespie. In fact it is good old Northfields Estate Agents - who disappear strangely from the market.
No. Gibbs Gilespie is not Northfields estate agency. It is The Romans Group.
With more then 3000 employers - non of those 3 companies is a member of any trading or government regulated body or supervised by Ombudsman. So they are free raiders on the market and can rob you anywhere you cross their path.
The Tenancy
In Apil 2018 I have rented and apartment from them and paid over 20k as upfront rent. Part of this money ( app £2 000 ) is so called deposits.
Apparently the property has a historical problem with its heating. So there was no radiators working. The problem was discovered in November same year 2018 . After endless emails, phone calls, promises - appeared that no Gibbs-Gillespie, nor Northfields, nor the Romans Group are in a position to repair the radiators and make them work.
In November 2022 - as the problem escalated further they asked me to leave the property and offered me £400 compensation for my electrical bills ( how generous for 4 years). Only the bill for last December was of exceed of £500. I agreed to leave the property.
Gibbs - Gillespie Associates
The man in black
On the day of vacating the property a person dressed in black like Zoro - turn up and asked me “to leave the keys and go” - which I did. 3 days later this individual come back with 94 pages of report stating that - 3 chairs and leather sofa has to be removed at my expense.
F&B Property Service
Apparently - I had a spear key and 30 min later I was in the property. I removed 3 chairs and the sofa. I left the two part sofa on the parking bay and arranged to be collected next morning. I have send messages and emails with pictures to both the agent and landlord. Despite that next morning one part of the sofa was taken a way from a company appointed by estate agents - with no permission from my end. Couple of hours later I received and invoice of exceed of £400.
This invoice was send from behalf of F&B PROPERTY SERVICE.
Quick check on internet shows that such company dose not exist. It has no phone number, web or physical address, or any registration of company house. So my sofa was vandalised - and on the top I was asked to pay for this service. I am in a process now of investigating invoice fraud from behalf of Gibbs - Gillespie, Northfields Estate Agents, The Romans Group
Abbie Lomo-Dash The person behind all this mess is Abbie Lomo-Dash. She is the agent of Gibbs-Gillespie and Northfields Estate Agents and Romans Group. She operate from different emails - some of which old or blocked. She cannot be contacted over the phone also as Abbie Lomo-Dash is on lunch break most of the time.
CONCLUSUION
After benign a tenant to Gibbs - Gillespie, Northfields Estate Agents and The Romans Group and paid them almost 90k - I was robbed. They run a way with my deposit. They run a way with my compensation and vandalised my belongings. For this they used invoice fraud and other tactics like blocking my email and phone. Now I am investigating whether by law I can recover my deposit. Whether I can get my compensation - or even higher compensation for more then 4 years stress, financial losses and physiological pressure
Overall I think this is standard set up for Gibbs-Gillespie, Northfields Estate Agents and Romans Group- which I believe many tenants of theirs are suffering

I am so grateful to George Wakefield for being so friendly, flexible and efficient but most importantly, helping me get onto the property ladder. I called up Gibbs Gillespie to view a property that I liked and George made special arrangements with the landlord for me to see it the next day as I wasn’t available on the Saturday (when the viewings were originally scheduled). I managed to be the first person to view the property and because of this, the first to put forward an offer (which was accepted all on this same day). Months later, here I am with my first home - all thanks to George! I have had such a positive experience with the Gibbs Gillespie team and would recommend them to everyone!

These guys are a bunch of cowboys. We were planning to buy a property from them and they kept fobbing us off for weeks, which almost jeopardised the sale of our property. It's clear that we were a 'backup buyer' for one of their clients and they pretended our offer had been accepted and they were ready to go through with the transaction. Completely unethical. Charlie Miller, the 'manager' is rude and obnoxious. His attitude is appalling and quite frankly, I'm surprised he hasn't been sacked already. Their agents who show potential buyers the properties are also a joke - nothing but glorified door-openers who know nothing about the property or local area. They stand there looking miserable, playing on their phones and try and rush you out of the property in less than 10 minutes. Thankfully, we ended up finding a nicer property to buy with a much better estate agent! We own a few properties in the Uxbridge and Ruislip areas and are looking to invest in more properties in the future in these areas but this entire experience of dealing with Charlie and his team means we will never consider selling/ buying or letting our properties with any Gibbs branch.

Up until the sale, the Estate agents were chasing up for an update and all the information were given when requested. After the sale, they completely cut off any correspondence. We tried calling and sent mail. It has been 5 months and no response till date. Hence I would advise friends, family and review readers to expect this after the sale, should you opt Gibbs-Gillespie as your agents. Finally, choosing Gibbs-Gillespie is your choice, I am just posting what I experienced if it helps some buyer/seller.
