Would highly recommend Dacres of Ripon if you are thinking of selling your home. Claire the manager and her colleague Jack are just brilliant they are so helpful and so friendly. Without them I wouldn’t have got through the sale of my home they helped me all the way with paper work I didn’t understand and nothing was too much trouble to them they always made me feel welcome when I called into find answers to some of my paper work and have a chat and a laugh. So Thankyou Claire and Jack for looking after me. Much appreciated from Andrea 😊

We can't fault the service we got from all the staff at Dacres, one of the most frustrating things about buying and selling a house is the lack of communication between all parties. They kept us informed all through the process with all the information we needed, plus they were always pleasant and easy to talk to

From start to finish Dacre, Son & Hartley were brilliant, always kept up to date with the sale. They chased any issues with potential buyers and found the right purchaser for a speedy sale. I've used "dreaded" Esate Agents in the past but with D, S & H ive had no issues whatsoever. Would highly recommend to anyone. 5 stars plus

We had a fantastic experience with Dacre, Son & Hartley in Baildon throughout the purchase of our property. From the very start, the team were professional and supportive. A special mention to Kelly, who has been an absolute star always going above and beyond to help everything run smoothly. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

A very poor experience. We instructed Dacres in Guiseley and a key selling point they offered was the local branch network, as we wished to remain in the area. After taking our instruction they promptly closed the Guiseley branch - the agent of the retail unit has confirmed they exercised a break clause in the tenancy, therefore would have known they were closing the branch while telling us they had local knowledge and presence. This is frankly underhand, even in a profession which has a bad reputation. They failed to remove the For Sale board despite several requests to do so - at one point saying the 'board man couldn't find it' - despite the fact it was lying on the ground in the front garden. Avoid this agent - there's plenty of others. - As they closed the Guiseley branch I am leaving a 1 Star review on the earest local branches in the area of our property search.

I had such a positive experience working with Will Shakeshaft-Gee at Dacre, Son & Hartley of Burley in Wharfedale. Will is an absolute gem; so patient, helpful and genuinely kind. Nothing was ever too much trouble and he really took the time to understand what I was looking for. I’ve found my dream house! His communication has been excellent throughout and I have felt informed and supported. I have been incredibly impressed by his professionalism and care. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Will and the team at the Burley office. Thank you ☺️
