TrustpilotExcellent staff
We sold our house and bought our flat both through Ryder Dutton Rawtenstall in June.Graham was very easy and pleasant to deal with, and always happy to help. Leon took us through the process and was also easy to speak to and very helpful - and in particular very patient when there were slight glitches along the way. Matt was very helpful too, and Megan guided us through the final stages and was always cheerful and quick to respond.All in all, we would highly recommend using the Rawtenstall branch.

TrustpilotAmazing Estate Agent
Throughout my home buying process, Ryder and Duttons Team has been absolutely impeccable. My main point of contact throughout the process was Geraldine who not only kept me updated regularly via email but also called me to check in and was amazing at responding to any queries I had. She chased on my behalf, brought forward any concerns I had to the seller and resolved any problems extremely quickly and efficiently. I’d also like to mention Dylan who facilitated the multiple viewings I had. He was polite, friendly and knowledgeable. Huge thanks to everyone that has supported this process, would highly recommend.

Excellent service provided by Ryder & Dutton. Jade and Michaela were fantastic and kept me informed about viewings and feedback from them. Once I accepted an offer Jenny the Sales Manager took over. It wasn’t a straight forward sale as quite complex. Jenny was superb, so professional and kept me informed every step of the way. She really did go above and beyond and I can’t thank her and the team at R&D enough.

Right from when I went to view the property up till when I got my keys, Samantha and Paige were excellent. Providing me with the information I needed every step of the way. They respond to my emails promptly, and when they miss a call, they give me a call back ASAP.Overall, it was a nice experience with Ryder & Dutton because Samantha and Paige made it so. Thank you.

TrustpilotEstate agents who were seriously helpful
Throughout the whole process of moving our elderly parents, Ryder and Dutton in Rawtenstall were fantastic to deal with. I would like to recognise Alex McMahon and Graham, in dealing so sensitively with their situation, they were very generous with their time in making everything run as smoothly as possible. Alex took on the communications. She was extremely efficient, she updated us regularly and our calls were dealt with promptly and intelligently. And with a kindness which we really appreciated . We feel we absolutely chose the best agents and would recommend them wholeheartedly.

TrustpilotI would like to thank Branch Coordinator Laura Chadderton.
I would like to thank Branch Coordinator Laura Chadderton at Ryder And Dutton Oldham for making our experience great.We moved to Ryder And Dutton after marketing our property for over a year with another agency and were placed with Laura and immediately we knew we were in safe hands. Laura committed to selling our property and her professionalism and expertise was immediately apparent. She organised a the diary for viewings and kept all parties informed at all times. Laura maintained a dedication to selling the house even when we lost thr first buyer which was very reassuring and we completed with the second buyer today. She has gone above and beyond to make the sale as seamless as possible and has kept us updated on the progress of the sale even if she was on leave . She has been in constant contact with all parties throughout with emails or phone calls always with a friendly and helpful attitude.I would absoloutely recommend Ryder And Dutton because of the exceptional staff they employ.

TrustpilotThe absolute best experience
I recently sold my property with Ryder & Dutton, Heywood branch. It was a very positive experience from start to finish. Starting with Fran Whittle who came out to do do the initial valuation with her obvious experience and knowledge of the local market, which is the most important aspect of selling. She also did the photographs and write up and it was listed online within just a few days. From that point on I dealt with Megan D’Angelillo at the local branch who was just excellent in every aspect of her position. She moved to another branch shortly after and Jenna Henley took over, who was also excellent, extremely efficient, professional and with great communication. They have perfected their process and they execute so well, both individually and as a Team. I received multiple, daily emails about viewings which happened immediately the house was listed, which they also handled for me. I had multiple offers within the first week and Jenna was on the ball at all times until we accepted an offer that we were very happy with. Once we agreed with the buyer, the transaction went as quickly as their bank would allow. Jenna kept me informed every step of the way, I never had to call once to ask for updates, she preempted any question before I even asked. It’s rare to get such service, I cannot recommend them highly enough. It becomes very apparent that using your local estate agent who has known the local area for so many years is a must for viewings and communication. I also used a solicitor they are not connected to but are familiar with due to their long, established network of local vendors, which made communication flow much better than if I’d introduced a random, unknown solicitor. This just added to the efficiency of their process to completion. I had no issues at all. Had there been any I would rather have a highly experienced local company on my side than a random online company who have no connection or attachment to the area. I can recommend Ryder & Dutton without hesitation, it was a pleasure to deal with them. Big thanks to Fran, Megan and Jenna, and Catherine who communicated with me also, you were all totally awesome!

Don’t make me laugh however they not kept all their part of the bargain all the time at 1st it was ok to talk on the phone when I could get through then later I asked to be contacted by email later in the conversation and that included the buyer.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are sorry to hear that you were unhappy with your experience.
Throughout our instruction, we arranged numerous viewings and worked hard to generate interest in your property, which resulted in several offers being received. Most recently, an offer was received which, as we understand it, you did not subsequently respond to.
As explained at the time, before a sale can be formally agreed, we are required to complete the appropriate Anti-Money Laundering (AML) and due diligence checks on prospective purchasers. In this particular instance, the necessary documentation had not been provided, meaning that we were unable to progress the offer to a formal sale at that stage. We appreciate that this can be frustrating, but these are requirements that we must adhere to.
We also note your comments regarding communication. We followed up discussions and key updates by email to ensure there was a clear written record and that all parties remained informed. We also made a number of attempts to contact you by telephone and remained in regular email correspondence throughout the instruction.
We are disappointed by your comments regarding our manager, as we believe that all communications were handled courteously and professionally. We always take feedback regarding the service provided by our team seriously and will reflect on the points you have raised.
The sale of a property can understandably be a frustrating process, particularly when prospective purchasers change their position or are unable to proceed. Unfortunately, these circumstances can sometimes arise despite the efforts of the agent and are not always within our control.
We regret that your experience did not meet your expectations, but we thank you for your feedback and wish you and your husband all the very best for the future
Kind regards

TrustpilotStill the Best
We had a number of challenges in selling my late parents house, not least that we all live in Australia. However initially Tony in getting the property on the market and then Amy as our negotiator were both extremely helpful and Amy was excellent at following up with all parties and communicating updates. Having used Ryder and Dutton numerous times when we lived in the UK it is good to see they are still in my opinion the best agents in the region

TrustpilotFriendly service that goes above and beyond
I sold my house recently through Ryder Dutton after the excellent service I'd previously had from them as a purchaser, I was not disappointed. From the first approach until the day of completion they were great, friendly, efficient & knowledgable. Fiona amd Freya were brilliant at helping me consider offers & in negotiating and I sold at a price I was happy with.The chain to complete was long and therefore complicated, Fiona went above and beyond to keep things moving and to ensure the completion date happened (despite some lack lustre solicitors for various parties). Highly recommend!

Wonderful team to work with. 16 viewings booked in a day and the house sold within a week at the asking price. We did the viewings ourselves over the weekend.Leanne came out initially and got the spec for the particulars and price right, the photos they took were really good and Martha was so efficient in taking the bookings, supported by the team calling me every 30 minutes. What's more, R&D were also acting for all those making an offer on our house so knew where they were in the process of selling their house.

Carmel was totally amazing. At the end of the sale we had many problems and she stood firm and made things happen. Never phased in spite of numerous setbacks mainly caused by our buyers and their solicitors. We, our solicitor, Carmel and the man who we were buying off worked tirelessly to make the exchange of contracts and then completion happen in spite of the problems we faced.Ove the years Ryder and Dutton have been my go to estate agents. Hopefully this will be our last ever move but if there was to be another ther would only be one agent we would go for!

Carmel our move manager was fantastic, she kept us informed throughout and helped chase the sellers and their solicitor to help with completion.

The Manager and all the staff at Ryder & Dutton Rawtenstall have been amazing throughout our house sale
From start to finish they have delivered excellent customer service. They have taken great care with their friendly , supportive and professional approach.
When issues with the sale happened (as they sometimes do) they were there to deliver a great outcome.
We particularly want to express our warmest admiration for Shannon Laycock and Jamie Murray. They took the lead, made time, pursued solutions and really looked after us to ensure the smoothest sale was possible. They literally went above & beyond and are a real credit to Ryder & Dutton

GoogleOur experience of Ryder and Dutton was to buy / put an offer on a property. We have been speaking with Robyn Roberts throughout the whole experience.
We felt assured knowing that she would update us whenever required. At one point, whilst I was working and had to put an offer in, she called my partner on my behalf and updated her which was above and beyond. Would recommend as she was friendly, quick and helpful throughout the process.

The team at Ryder and Dutton, especially Leon James, have been amazing through the whole process. We advised in our specific needs and why we needed to sell and both Leon and the team have provided ongoing support throughout our time with them. The team are friendly, approachable and always ready to offer advice. Highly recommended. Excellent service Lucy and Sarah at the Lettings Team were also amazing. They arranged all the paperwork to rent, helped us sort our checks and get us updated with each and every step of the rental process ( something we had not done before). I would totally recommend Ruder & Dutton for all your housing needs, whether selling, buying or renting.

Ryder and Dutton have just completed selling our first property in Slaithwaite and managed the buying of our new home.
