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?

I will never recommend this company to anyone. False promises, once you paid your deposit and 1st month rent money then you will never be able to get in touch with any of the staff. All you will hear is excuses like they are on holiday, left the office early, sick leave etc. I personally went through this trauma when I checked in and now they want to charge extortionate amount while check out in just 5 months. It's scandalous, they work with their suggested cleaning and inventory company so that they can keep the money from tenants deposit. It's a scam.... they left me with the below decking for 3 months and I chased the landlord to get it done. I have 7 yr old twins and all the nails were lying in the garden, this company didn't call me once to say when they will get it done and had no answer for health and safety for my kids. Carbon monoxide alarm was faulty near the boiler which they never repaired. They are master in keeping tenants money. I hope the ombudsman is watching and should be fined with these scandalous estate agents.

Services : Sales( Prospective Vendor/Buyer )Date: 30th May 2016
We were selling our 2 bed flat with Gibbs Gillespie (Harrow). While they were doing viewings on our property, most of the staff had no knowledge of the spec of our property when prospective buyers were asking questions they would never know the answers. In addition to this, most of the time they were always late for viewings (up to an hour late) and would never call ahead to inform us or the viewers, so I would had to show the prospective buyers around the property. We were told prior to signing our contract, if offers came in that they would run all checks to ensure they were genuine offers. We accepted an offer which eventually fell through. Because there was a delay on the buyers side, Gibbs told us they would ask the buyer to put a non-refundable holding deposit of £2000 down so that if they did pull out that we would receive the £2000 to cover the cost. They confirmed over the phone that the buyer had put the deposit down so we went ahead and arranged a mortgage for another property we were buying. Eventually after our property was off the market for weeks the sale fell through on the buyers behalf and when we asked for the deposit it had been refunded to the buyer so we were out of pocket after arranging a mortgage and lost the other property that we were buying. Very unprofessional. Because of the length of time the property was on the market without sale we decided to take it off the market we were told over the phone first by a junior member of staff that this was no problem it will be taken down immediately (we hadn't even given our name, who we were, so I thought anyone off the street could have rang up to take it off the market). Eventually a senior member of staff told us we can't take it down off the market without given written notice 2 weeks in advance and persuaded us to leave it up for another few weeks. One Saturday morning, we had a guest stay over at our property and the estate agent let themselves in with a prospective buyer and disturbed our guest in bed (half dressed). They had left a message the evening before on my partners voicemail to give them a ring back to confirm a viewing, my partner hadn't got the message until after the viewing. They never attempted to contact me when they couldn't get hold of my partner so we had no idea there was viewings that day. This was a trespass of a private property and needless to say we terminated our contract with immediate effect. When I rang the office the guy i was talking to didn't even apologise for what had happened. They are extremely unprofessional and I would not recommend them to anyone going on the service we received.

Philip Benger at Gibbs Gillespie has been an absolute star. Not only did he and his colleagues do a great job marketing our property but ever since we accepted an offer, Philip has been in constant contact, I mean at least once or twice a week as necessary in the early stages and literally every day during the nerve-wracking last few days before exchange. He is always available when I need to speak to him too, and his enthusiasm and positive attitude have helped us get through many tricky times and delays. His commitment was clearly demonstrated by his regular ringing and emailing of all parties involved near the end, whether our own or the other party's solicitors, the two lenders involved, or the estate agent at either end of the chain, followed by reporting back to us. In this respect, Philip saved us a lot of time in doing all this hard work for us - and I say this as a very involved party myself, doing many of my own calls and checks - I really appreciated liaising and checking updates with him throughout. Apart from that, he has a warm manner and is very cheerful. Above all the honesty clear in the service of Philip and his colleagues is something priceless when you are selling your property. We are most grateful.

Philip helped me with the sale of my property and as a first time seller made me feel like the process went very smoothly. When Philip came over to provide a valuation he showed a very good knowledge of the area and made me feel comfortable and confident to allow them to represent me. True to his word my house was sold in a day and over the asking price. He has kept me well informed all the time and made himself available when I needed him to answer any queries etc. I would definitely recommend Philip to others.
