GoogleThe experienced staff at Reeds Rains, especially Angie Stancer, understood the difficulties of selling a family home of long standing from a distance, and can be relied upon to conduct successful viewings to appropriate prospective buyers. All the Acomb branch staff were extremely helpful and supportive in achieving a sale within four months.

GoogleJust used Reed Rains to re let a property in Acomb and the service was Brilliant. In particular Alex Simpson ensured that not only did we find good tenants but also had an effortless transition from previous letting agents. He was extremely prompt, courteous, professional and made sure that both we and the tenants were happy. Felt like we were in safe hands. Cannot recommend Reed Rains Acomb enough.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

GoogleTake Reeds Rains OWN advice and "choose a local company instead".
Initially they seemed great - found me good tenants quickly and all the processes involved went smoothly. Unfortunately it all started to go wrong soon after.
I paid Reeds Rains to fully manage my property for two years. In reality, I managed it for the last 15 months, because I couldn't trust them to do the job. I have previously managed my own property when I moved to a different part of the country for work, so I understand what is needed (good, honest communication, effective task management skills, treating people with respect). It's not rocket science.
Unfortunately, Reeds Rains failed to deliver multiple times including:
- Leaving my tenants without heating and hot water for a week in December
- Failing to pass on maintenance issues to me that my tenants had flagged to them multiple times
- Using my property for marketing without my consent
- Assigning me the wrong tax code, despite me giving them the correct one, leading to issues for me to deal with through self-assessment
- Being verbally rude to my tenants
- Sending in 'technicians' who walked in, turned the boiler off at the wall and declared what the problem was (which it wasn't as they hadn't bothered to actually look at the boiler) and charging me over £100 for the 'service'.
-Ignoring complaints about the above issues, and others
-Shirking responsibility "That's not our responsibility, it's xyz department" (pretty much the response I got to all the above).
This last one was a repeated frustration. When I went to collect my keys I told of my frustration with this lack of responsibility and as a client, paying Reeds Rains, I expect therefore to deal with Reeds Rains, not repeatedly be told "it's nothing to do with us" when something goes wrong. According to Reeds Rains, this is "just how large conglomerates work" and if I wanted "a more personal service, then perhaps I should chose a local company next time". This is ironic as one of the reasons I chose them is that they are in Acomb, as is my property.
So my advice for anyone considering renting their property through Reeds Rains - take their advice and "choose a local company instead". I think you'll have a higher chance of getting a better quality of service and staff who don't hide behind sub-contractors when it comes to taking responsibility when things go wrong.
Bottom line: I won't be using them again, and I will be recommending people to avoid them.

Dear Izzy, we are very sad to read this review. Reeds Rains care passionately about our industry & our customers and I am very sorry that hear that we have fallen short of your expectations. Ultimately our local team in branch are always happy to help to manage problems and our fundamental objective is customer satisfaction. Letting property is complex & occasionally unfortunately things can go wrong. When something does go wrong we strive to help to put it right. A representative from Reeds Rains will investigate these issues and respond directly to you. Kind regards, Alex, Reeds Rains Acomb.
