TrustpilotDO NOT RENT FROM REEDS RAINS
I have never had to deal with such difficult people!!!! The Chester branch. Dean vian and Micheal fellows in particular. Never respond to any of my emails. Then weeks later when I have sent 2 emails per week trying to get a response they email me back with nonsense completely unrelated to what I’m complaining about and I have to start the process all over again. It’s been over 3 months. I have a broken shower, an ant infestation and light fittings hanging off the ceiling. The house shouldn’t have been rented out in this condition in the first place.I have followed the complaints procedure and had zero response. I have contacted head office and had zero response. I have emailed enquiries@reedsrains no response. I have contacted the lettings hub no response! I’m sending all of my emails to the ombudsman. Reeds rains service is an utter disgrace! I pay £1000 a month to live in a “fully managed” property and I have no shower and a hall way full of ants and no one will do anything about it!

TrustpilotMacclesfield branch are the worst…
Macclesfield branch are the worst estate agents our family have ever come across in 60 years of buying and selling properties in the UK! Reed Raines recommended a conveyor based in Leicester (miles away from us) in November 2020, we had to chase both of them all of the time. Reeds Raine were rude and aggressive, and we’re not working for us, in our best interest (and we were paying their bill). The Conveyancing (Premier Property Lawyers) cost us over £40k by their incompetence and Reed Raines staff were unsupportive to us and had an over familiar interest in selling our property to a family friend. We pulled out at the end of March still unsold, due to both companies inefficiency and unprofessional work. Don’t use Reeds Raine, especially Macclesfield branch.
Hello Julia, I believe your review to be extremely unfair. We were appointed to sell initially by your mother, who we have sold for several times over the past 12 years or so and has been extremely happy with our services over the years. We generated good interest at the start, with two buyers offering, one of which was accepted. There were a few delays during the process, 2 main ones including being unable to find the deeds and the related onward purchase.With the buyer's chain. We believe everything was done within our ability to conclude a sale. As it happened these delays didn't allow the sale to proceed, as we would have liked and it certainly was not ourselves who incurred any costs for you, as we and our panel solicitors operate on a no sale no fee basis. However, we wish you all the best with any house-related plans. Kind regards,James Segal - Senior Branch Manager/ Valuer

TrustpilotReeds Rains Leyland Office.
Asked Reeds Rains to do a rent review on a property we rent out. Kristal, the manager did a fantastic job for us, managed to get the tenants to agree to a much higher rent in line with the current market. She couldn’t have been more helpful. Kept us fully informed all of the time. Would highly recommend for selling, buying or letting a property as we have previously done all three.

Superb service from start to finish from Sue at Macclesfield branch Our initial valuation was carried out professionally and emphasis was put on the importance of not only finding a buyer put also tracking the whole process through to completionThey were as good as their word and indeed worked very hard, in trying circumstances, to bring my sale to successful completion

TrustpilotTHE WORST
THE WORST! Complete disregard for anyone except themselves in there office with their cheap suits on. Very unprofessional. Reported a broken shower in a fully managed property that I’ve just paid £7000 up front for and 12 weeks later I still have no shower. Never get a response to emails or phone calls. Messed up my moving in day. All my stuff was packed and movers booked went get the new keys only to be told no paper work had been done and I’d have to wait another two weeks!! Now with no where to live in the mean time and money waisted on the movers. The lads in the office thought it was funny and had zero apologies for the monumental mess up.

TrustpilotRental and House Sale
Thank you to all the Bamber Bridge staff for the excellent service provided by the lettings team over 13 years of renting and the Sales team for their team work and professional delivery in the sale of my property. When the pressure was on, they delivered and performed a great service. Helen especially in the rental and Alison in Sales, have both personally ensured that the pressure remained on the rental and sale ensuring completion of the property sale. A sterling effort and highly recommended. All calls and e mails responded promptly resulting in a great delivery and service. Thank You.

Absolutely fantastic service received by Reeds Rains at Bamber Bridge. Alison Whiteside has gone above and beyond from the initial property viewing, right through the whole sales process. So welcoming, professional and expert in her field. I would 100% recommend this estate agent. Thank you

TrustpilotThe Reeds Rains team at Bamber Bridge…
The Reeds Rains team at Bamber Bridge branch were fantastic and we would highly recommend them. Communication was timely and clear when arranging viewings and feedback was meaningful (thanks Alison & Rebecca). Donna the branch manager negotiated the sale price on our behalf and kept in regular contact up to completion. We ended up in a chain of 8 homes which was a nightmare. Numerous issues and delays arose at various points in the chain resulting in 4 different dates for exchange & completion before we finally moved house. Rebecca and Donna were amazing during this period - they established communications with other estate agents, liaised brilliantly with solicitors and their forensic skills at getting to the bottom of delays in other parts of the chain and helping to resolve these if they could were excellent. We felt fully informed - even when things were beyond our control. They helped us remain optimistic whilst being fully informed. They had a great balance of friendliness and professionalism.

TrustpilotTerrible letting agent.
Been renting from them now for near on 6 months and the service is terrible.Getting any maintenance done is a complete farce and the communication of the staff leaves a lot to be desired. It seems common practice for them to just lie and or pass the blame on for everything.Reeds Rains Staff member Ms. Lorna Fieldson has done nothing but lie and change excuses since day 1 of tenancy. Even lied to the council / environmental health who eventually got involved after 5 months of excuses from Reeds Rains and the Landlord.I WOULD ADVISE EVERYONE AVOID LETTING FROM THIS ESTATE AGENT.

We found Reeds Rains of Grimsby exceptionally helpful in buying a property in the area - thanks mainly to help from Sophie, who opted to 'prod' solicitors into action at one or two points. Full marks!

Reeds Rains Macclesfield Branch are the role model for how other estate agents should operate. A breath of fresh air to deal with staff that are so “switched on” and excel in every part of the process. RR Macclesfield constantly deliver results especially with property that could be difficult to sell. I will always use the Macclesfield branch as they are quite clearly ahead of the game. I therefore award you five stars !

TrustpilotDo NOT use this agent
Do NOT use this agent. Honestly have had me crying they are so frustrating. Everything is made into a big issue. You wont get your deposit. i cannot state enough how bad they are honestly. They dont answer emails or conveniently dont received them even though they receive others and you are sending to the same email. staff are rude and just tell you lies and change their stories. Not one bit helpful everything an issue. Handed notice in and am still having to battle with them. If someone from Reeds read this i would like to know how to escalate further and hate having to deal with Liverpool office.
Hi Kieran,I'm sorry you have not been pleased with the service you've received from Reeds Rains. Customer service is of paramount importance to us. Please can you email enquiries@reedsrains.co.uk with some further information so we can investigate this further? Kind regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotAvoid like covid
Was going to wait until the end of our tenancy to write this but honestly today has had me in tears.Might not seem like a big thing but after this year it’s all added up and I’m so upset. It started originally with them waiting until the day before we were supposed to move in to do a gas safety check.The boiler then failed and we had to pay for hotels and find alternative accommodation for a few days.The company they then had to fix it, clearly rushed the boiler , and the whole heating system has been broken all year. In winter it shut down completely and we’ve had around 8 different engineers come have a look. One said it was the worst job he’d seen, another said there was cement in the pipes and another came cut a hole in the ceiling and left ( the hole is still there and drafty). The radiators still rattle very loudly at random times and have not been fixed a year on. We were treated so unfairly over email and accused of lying about the problem .. until we sent a video and they promised to have it sorted.The radiators are still broken and one still leaks .. When we first moved in, the house was filthy , it stunk of damp and mould and there was huge DIY issues such as leaky pipes , bad filling over holes and muck all over most walls. They said sorry , but frankly it’s not good enough. We moved in with furniture that was falling apart , broken and stained. They did replace the sofa and 2 mattresses when we asked. Most of the furniture looks like it was found in a skip. There’s a crack down the top wall , the carpets are old and mucky and in general the house has been a huge disappointment. We’ve been in tears multiple times this year with reeds rain. Today they rung me and told me that the new tenants wanted to come look round again in about an hours time. I explained that I was going to be out and would prefer they come tomorrow ( 24 hours notice and all that) and was told that wouldn’t be possible. The arrogance and disregard for the tenants rights that reeds rains have is gross.I want to warn anyone from renting with them in Manchester City centre.Update - interesting a timely manner according to you is a year on and still not fixed. Accusing us of lying about the issues, and not giving tenants 24 hours notice is professional ?
Hi Ellie, I’m sorry you’ve needed to write this review. I acknowledge there have been several issues with the property in the last 12 months but I believe we have always tried to resolve the issues in a timely and professional manner. Kind Regards,Greg Davies - Senior Branch Manager.
