GoogleKeira, Hayley, Ellie and the team at Hackney & Leigh in Kendal have been amazing from start to finish during the process of selling my home. The initial meetings with Keira were enormously helpful and constructive, the photos and sales particulars were of a very high quality, and the tenacity of Hayley and Ellie in getting the sale to exchange of contracts was very much appreciated. Thank you guys.

GoogleMy review is based on fact and my personal experience of using this company whilst looking to Rent a commercial unit for the purpose of running a cafe. Communications were very poor from the start and throughout the process of enquiring about the opportunity of renting the unit(s) for the purpose of running a cafe. The first issue was the advertising of the unit; it was advertised as £600 per month, however, buried deep in the description, it was actually 2 units, each at £600 per unit. To cut a long story short, after several weeks of chasing, I had to pull out of this rental, due to absolutely shocking communications and no formal lease agreement in place at the time of advertising. Hackney and Leigh suggested the delays were due to the landlord; however, having contacted the landlord directly, I was told otherwise. I personally, would not use this company again, as mentioned, this is 1 of 3 incidents over the past 10 months of using this company.
