waste of time

booked a viewing for Wednesday, they went through with the viewing, even though the listing had already been removed, which seemed dodgy. The agent said that the application package would be emailed to us in the morning, we called to double check where it was as it was already mid-day and they said it would be with us by the end of the day; however, the packages were never sent to us as the listing was clearly gone. Complete waste of time and messed us about for no reason. Agent name: Jack

Playing people hopes and reams

I am writing to express my extreme disappointment and frustration with the way my recent property search was handled by your agency. The level of communication and mismanagement that I experienced throughout the process was absolutely unacceptable, leaving me feeling deceived and disheartened. Furthermore, I find it absolutely baffling that no one from your agency saw fit to inform me about the existence of a higher cash offer on the property. It was only through my own proactive initiative of contacting your agency that I learned about the competing offer. If I hadn't taken it upon myself to inquire, I can only assume that I would have been kept in the dark indefinitely. This lack of transparency and failure to communicate effectively is inexcusable and demonstrates a severe lack of professionalism.The entire ordeal has left me deeply saddened and questioning the integrity of your agency.

Agent replied · 15 June 2024

Hi Melis,Many thanks for your feedback for us to review as we strive for excellent customer service and all feedback is acted upon straight away. Unfortunately we do receive multiple offers on properties in Salford and we can only have one successful buyer. I believe following an afternoon of dedicated viewings with myself you have had on offer accepted on another property with a cellar that met your specific requirements on a property which is great news. Hopefully going forward you will be happy with your alternative purchase more suited to your needs which we found for you and I wish you all the best in the future now all this has been resolved. Regards,Ben Eastham - Branch Manager

I’m not sure what their issue is but…

I’m not sure what their issue is but I’m starting to go down the route of discrimination. I applied to two different properties to rent and they sent me an application. I reduced the price on both properties with my offer. I heard back from Sophie stating that’s they have gone with another application and will let me know if it doesn’t go through. The next day that property was on rightmove again,for the exact price I wanted it for. I called, resubmitted my application, left voicemails you name it. They told me she was only working for one hour in the day and that she will contact me tomorrow. We are going on two days now and have heard absolutely nothing.The second property I put in an application for. They didn’t even get back to me. Just re andvertised again at a reduced price. Didn’t let us know, didn’t even try to renegotiate which we were open to.I don’t know if they have a problem against us in particular but as I am reading some reviews nobody has been treated like us. Really disappointing to see because we more than meet the criteria.

Not a good experience

We have recently tried to onboard to our portfolio a property located in central Manchester. The property was promoted by Reeds Reins but never advertised as a repossession, something we uncovered through coincidence after asking some basic questions to a rather inexperienced very junior rep the agency used to do the viewings.Having offered the advertised asking price which, subsequently got accepted, the Estate Agent in charge of promoting the property offered us a turnaround time of just three weeks to conclude exchange of contracts from the issue of the Memorandum Of Sale knowing only too well they we had to deal with the property under standard conveyancing rules and a mortgage that had to be approved by a mortgage lender with their own charter surveying process. This additional pressure to exchange made the entire buying experience particularly stressful.Eventually, we were informed by email that there was another offer on the table and were asked to put in a counter offer if still interested. We lost the flat to the other buyer.That was the second loss with this agent that came across to us not as easy to work with. In our offer to another property the agent demanded proof of finance prior to even putting forward our offer to the seller and sounded rude. No apology was offered when I called the manager to complain .We eventually decided to stop viewing properties through that agency.

Poor experience - beware

If you choose Reeds Rains, and hand the keys over to them for their accompanied viewer, please check your property as soon as possible after any viewings. We ended up with a significant repair bill after a redundant disconnected shower was operated (Who knows why, but the accompanied viewer was there in charge of the property?) resulting in water leaking into the kitchen below and collapsing the ceiling, initial consultation with a caring branch manager escalated into a complaint which of course sided with the accompanied viewer, a very biased process. Very little empathy and absolutely zero goodwill. **Update, just read the reply from Reeds Rains probably ticking their caring box, as expected heard nothing from them. Empty promises!!!**

House sale

A huge thank you to Reeds Rains staff in Sale who dealt with the sale of my late mum’s house. In particular, Mandy, Rebecca, Pasquale and Alex could not have been more efficient, professional and very helpful. Nothing seemed too much trouble for them and as a complete novice in this field, their help and expertise was hugely appreciated. Thank you all.

Thanks Tara (Catford branch, London)

Tara from the Catford branch (in SE London) was excellent selling our property - very knowledgeable about the local property market, quick, efficient and great communications all along the way, including some tricky negotiations. Plus a competative price - I would definintely reccommend her and Reeds Rains Catford.

Selling my house - Simples!

Reeds Rains Pontefract staff have been excellent. They've kept the system smooth and simple from initial meeting, through to photo session, to arranging viewings and second viewings, and achieved a very good price for my property. An excellent team:thanks to Elise, Ash and Vicky, not to mention Sarah who worked on the marketing brochure. Well done.

We have been a rough drive since the mini budget and winter time. And sold for a right price as things get better and everywhere is blooming and beautiful in Spring time to know the value of what buyer looks for. And most of Reeds and Rains nearby are also sold. Thank you for the RR team.

Excellent Service with one Criticism

Still at the early stages of the process but I cannot fault the attention and courtesy shown by all staff that I have seen and spoken to. If there is any criticism I can make it would be the fixed price fee of the agent. If I could explain further, I wanted to handle all viewings but there was no reduction of the fee offered knowing that the cost to them for handling the viewing would incur agent’s time and fuel which would be a saving to them.

TOTALLY INCOMPETENT - NOT WORTH ONE STAR

HULL OFFICE IS NOT WORTH ONE STARTHIEVES!!!!!! AN ATROCIOUS, EXTREMELY INCOMPETENT, DISRESPECTFUL AND UNTRUSTWORTHY SET UP THROUGHOUT, WITH ADDED EXTRAS OF RUDENESS, LIES AND DECEIT THROWN IN FOR FREE FROM THE MANAGER. DO NOT USE ACCOMPANIED VIEWING, LEAVE PROPERTY UNLOCKED, WINDOWS OPENED AND LIGHTS ON. IN FACT, DO NOT USE THEM AT ALL. I WOULD NOT TRUST THEM WITH THE SALE OF A DOLLS HOUSE.

I currently use Reeds Rains to manage a rental property. I wont be using them again in the future. Call centre in Southampton and a lack of local service. If you are a landlord looking for a letting agent, look for someone that is local and can give you the service and time that is needed.

Most useless company award 2020/2023

One of the most useless companies I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Almost every single member of staff we have spoken to about various issues have been so dismissive and dim witted that their answer to us not having a functioning washing machine for 3 weeks, was “well can’t you use a dry cleaners?” In an area where the closest one is over 15 miles away and closes before we can finish work meaning we could only do washing between their slim to nine weekend hours.We got that little “hiccup” out the way and thought thank god we don’t have to deal with them again… until a mass leak in the building has ruined most of the bathrooms, ours included and wouldn’t you know it. Ours is the only one AFTER 2+ YEARS. To still not be done. There is damp. Mould. The floor is literally soft and rotting. There are silverfish now taking up residence in the soaked flooring and the bathroom smells like damp. (Oh and we know now thanks to the builders showing us the upstairs bathroom they done, that there is no water proofing what so ever in the bathroom so it will keep getting worse until we fall through the sodding floor. We have told red rains about this on what must be over 12 times so far and they have done 0 about it :) once again I could imagine their response would be along the lines of “well there’s a seaside 30 miles away, why don’t you just use that”. Again. Words cannot describe how useless they have been and at this point in time we are considering just taking legal action thanks to the 4 visits we have had all saying “oh that’s bad, I’ll inform my manager” 😂 like that will do anything. Useless.
