The business was originally founded in 1968 by John's late father Keith and traded as 'Keith Dallas' for decades. John joined in 2008 following a successful career at a large corporate estate agency. Keith passed way suddenly in 2011 after which the business was rebranded as John Dallas. The rebranding also involved modernisation of the systems and software but the traditional emphasis on reputation is very much retained.
The contrast between corporate estate agency and an owner run independent estate agency is remarkable. Staff turnover in big estate agency can be incredibly high so clients are often dealing with different members of staff, whereas John enjoys the fact he regularly gets repeat business from his customers and he hopes to do so for at least another decade to come.

It was third time lucky with JD and all we can say is WOW what an exceptional estate agent this is! The team worked hard to sell our flat after it had been on the market with 2 different agents for a year prior. In a tough market for 1 bed flats post lockdown, they had a great network of potential buyers lined up for viewings within days of first contact. We were given updates regularly and detailed feedback so we knew where we stood every step of the way. They were open and honest and we were able to secure a buyer and complete within 12 weeks! This will help us with our onwards purchase and they

John Dallas were our 3rd estate agent and they secured our sale !!! They kept us informed and updated at every stage and responded promptly to any queries we had. Paul Bronziet who we dealt with mainly was professional throughout. As a company we would highly recommend them.

We bought our first property through John Dallas recently and could not be happier - with either the house or the service received. We dealt mainly with Kasia and Franco who were a delight after some of the other agents we came across on our property search. All our questions were fed back to the vendors and responded to immediately and the level of service we received was second to none. I cannot recommend the company highly enough... We do not intend to sell for many many years, but if and when the time comes we will be using John Dallas!

I used John Dallas to sell my home and cannot speak highly enough of the experience I had. I primarily dealt with Paul and Franco, who were incredibly professional, friendly and efficient. They gave constructive feedback from viewings, and found a buyer very quickly. Their communication throughout the sales process was excellent and as a result everything ran smoothly. I would highly recommend John Dallas if you are thinking of selling your home.

Fantastic service from start to finish.
We very recently sold our flat in South Croydon and chose to use John Dallas as they're a local, family run agent based just down the road.
This was our first time selling a property so we really appreciated the advise, honesty and level of communication from Frank and Paul. They were there to help us every step of the way from the initial evaluation all the way through to exchange and completion (which took just 8 weeks!).
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend John Dallas to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Croydon area.
Thanks guys!

I was very happy with the service we got at John Dallas. They were friendly, efficient and they took time to research the market and make sure the house was marketed in the right way at the right price. We had a buyer within 10 days of putting the house on the market. John and Franco are really friendly and we got regular updates on progress. I would have no hesitation in recommending them.

We have both bought and sold through John Dallas and can highly recommend.
From a buyers perspective I can only say that there is a reason we didn't consider anyone else when it came time to sell our house.
From a sellers perspective Franco and John had 6 viewings, 2 offers and a sale agreed within 6 days of us putting it on the market. The majority of the viewings being the result of local knowledge. They were open and honest about the price we could likely achieve and did not make us any false promises. With the photos being done by John himself it meant we had listed within a day of deciding

We purchased our first home through John Dallas at the end of June. We dealt primarily with Franco, who was a breath of fresh air after having dealt with some really pushy estate agents.
He was fantastic at helping us through the process, ensuring that completion went through quickly and pain free for all parties.
When/ if we come to sell, we will most definitely be speaking to them first.
Great team - thoroughly recommend.

I'm very happy with my experience of using John Dallas to sell my flat earlier this year. Franco was very friendly and informative at our first meeting and continued to offer honest, realistic advice throughout the process - very useful for a first-time seller. JD actually gave the lowest valuation of four local estate agents I approached but I chose them as I thought they were more likely to achieve a sale. John was also friendly when he visited with Franco to take measurements and Kasia kept me up to date with any interest/offers. They were also proactive in giving me the advice I didn't want
