Great experience of buying my property through ELR. Even though I was the buyer they kept me up to date on my purchase and always friendly and efficient. Would recommend.

I would not recommend using ELR as I do not believe that they can be trusted. They were the original agents when I was selling a house in the area but we terminated our contract with them after lots of problems arose when they completely changed their personnel in their Bakewell office without warning. (Problems such as being completely unresponsive and showing the house to people who weren't interested in it: surely estate agency 101 to know which houses you are selling). Under the terms of the agreement with them, we were liable to pay them commission if exchange happened within six months of termination, so exchange was delayed to avoid that cost. Nevertheless, ELR sought payment of their fees via our new estate agents. Seeking payment when you are not entitled to it is dodgy indeed! ELR did not respond to my enquiries about why they had done this. For these reasons, I cannot recommend them

I am sorry Mr P, I completely refute any of these issues raised are about trust, I think that is unfair. Whilst I accept we had changes of staff which may have affected the consistency of service for a short while, this was exactly the same for the subsequent agent you instructed. ELR introduced the buyer of the property and successfully sold your buyers house, to enable them to buy your home. I understand the change of staff may have been unsettling, but ultimately ELR found you a buyer in a challenging housing market. An agreement was made between ELR and your subsequent agent to split the agency fees. Given our work was for you was completely unpaid and some of our staff were left deeply upset with your manner, I think it is a unfair to offer a 1 star review. If you would like to discuss this matter any further, please feel free to call me.

We both let and sold our house through ELR. Richard Attwood was our first contact. He was always extremely professional and thorough and produced a high quality video together with photographs of the house. These were used for both letting and selling. They were followed by a large of number of photographs at the end of the letting period which were very reassuring as we were not in a position to view the house for ourselves. Judy Hudson handled the sale and proved to be both efficient and helpful at all stages. We thoroughly recommend the Bakewell Office and all of its staff for its attention and professionalism.

Dear L 65, We're extremely sorry to find out that your experience with ELR hasn't worked out for you. Perhaps you could expand on your issues for us or call the office to discuss. We cannot find you on our database so it may be this review was made in error. Kind regards, ELR

Longstanding name in estate agency in the area with extensive knowledge. The property in the Hope Valley needed major repair following flood damage & I instructed ELR to sell mid renovation. It was a protracted sale but the guidance offered was invaluable even though I found the eventual purchaser! Thanks to Tim, Carloline and Holly in the Hathersage office.

I recently bought a house through ELR Hathersage and had an excellent experience. Caroline, Holly, and Kathryn were all fantastic to work with. They were professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. Their expertise and dedication made buying a home a smooth and enjoyable experience. I highly recommend ELR Hathersage and their wonderful team!

A truly wonderful team at ELR. From initial appraisal from Tim, to Caroline, Holly and Kathryn in the office. Our sale was not straightforward with its ups and downs but with the help from all of the above we thankfully got there in the end. Highly recommended.

We bought our house through ELR and are very grateful to David for the viewings he took us round on our search for a new forever home. He was always on time and well prepared with information about the property. It's such a big decision and David was a great support.

Absolute joke, waiting a week to view a property then while waiting outside it on the day got a phone call saying they’d be a little late & then 10 minutes later got a voicemail saying they’d sold the house , no apologies or anything just asked if we wanted to go on waiting list with them , no thank you totally unprofessional & unorganised

Leon, Sorry about the appointment cancelling at the last minute. After I called you to confirm the appointment my colleague had just put the phone down to the corporate company who we are selling the property for. They were calling us to tell us to accept an offer we have had on the table for over a week. She had explained about your viewing (and one other for later in the week) but they just wanted us to accept the offer and proceed, so unfortunately it was completely out of our control. However, we have added you to the waiting list should the sale fall through & it come back to market.
