TrustpilotNew beginnings!
Let me give you some background first, my girlfriend and I had been living in a mouldy, cramped up tiny box bedroom at my toxic mums place where we were giving way too much for rent for where we was. After countless of knock backs being rejected for places around Cleethorpes, Immingham and Grimsby, but our first time dealing with Reeds Rains we now have our own place to call out own, and all thanks to the team at Grimsby town. A very special thanks to all the staff working there! I myself really appreciate everything they did! I highly recommend!
Hi Issac,Thank you for you review! Wishing you all the best in your new home!Regards,Reeds Rains

GoogleI have recent purchased a property with Reeds Rains Ballyhackamore and had multiple dealings with the team. Couldn’t speak any more highly of the team in the branch. Extremely helpful and proactive in the process. Thank you!!
Thanks for the review Lewis, enjoy your new home.

TrustpilotGosforth Team
The team at Gosforth Newcastle are knowledgeable about the area and the market. I have used their services for several years. Their strength , in my opinion , is their ability to deal with queries and problems quickly. They are always easy to reach by phone and email and a pleasure to talk to. Thank you Kirsty, Phil and Maddie.

GoogleI could not recommend Reeds Rains enough! I have just bought a house using their service and they made the whole transition smooth and easy. Pat was always available and answered to any of my questions and accommodated my requests.
Thanks very much. Team RR

TrustpilotReeds Rain Blackpool - poor Customer Service and Liars
Reeds Rains Blackpool provide a shocking service to tenants/potential tenants. I viewed a property on Saturday and emailed after the viewing to say I was interested but needed the remnants of the previous tenant removing (including dirty pillows and shower gel) and some electrical things checking to confirm they all were in satisfactory working order. I expected at least an email to thank me for my interest but nothing so I called and left a message for the negotiator to call me back. No return call so I called again and was told by the other lettings person that the landlord had rejected my interest with no explanation available. The negotiator, Hannah, had left at this point. I left a message for her to call the following day and still no contact. I rang two more times and finally got to speak to her but she though being told no was satisfactory with no explanation. I said she was meant to negotiate with me and the landlord as without a tenant there is no let. I agreed to store the tat in the cellar and asked her to go back to the landlord. We then got cut off and I rang back and her colleague refused to transfer the call! I advised the Hannah was taking my details (again) and was going to speak to the landlord. She then put me on hold without warning and then came back to say that half an hour ago, the landlord had called to say that their friend was taking on the house. I left it here, but my partner called up today to show interest int he property and was told it was still available! So not only is the customer service atrocious, they are liars too! Avoid at all costs.

TrustpilotThis is not okay
This is not okay. Along with the horrendous service I got with moving in, the staff at Reeds Rains Liverpool were meant to organise a maintenance and clean for after I moved in. Last week, I received a text from the contractor and I asked if they could come on Friday. On Friday, nobody came. When I called them, they sent me to voicemail. When I reached out on Monday to ask what happened, the contractor explained that they were unwell. No bother, I asked them to come on Wednesday. After some texts and emails, I received no confirmation that they would be at my flat on Wednesday. In none of those correspondence did the contractor once say “Yes, I’ll be with you on Wednesday morning,”. Today, Wednesday morning, I woke up to missed calls and texts asking where I was. How was I meant to know they would come to me on Wednesday when they didn’t even confirm that at all? When I called the contractor, her attitude was horrible. She said, “Do you want to keep going over the fact that there’s been a communication breakdown or do you want to get a cleaning booked?” before also saying that Reeds Rains only told her about two repairs that needed to be done. This contrasts the higher number of repairs that needed to be done in the property report, one of which was my bathroom sink plunger not working so now my sink is a Petri dish and has been since the weekend. I called up Reeds Rains and spoke with Oliver who said, “We can either find a new contractor or you’re going to have to grin and bear it with these ones,”. I had asked to be called back yesterday by Reeds Rains and I wasn’t. I have asked to be called back today and, as of 3:30pm, I haven’t been. Overall, horrible service from a supposed “full service property management” company and its contractors.

TrustpilotVery poor experience with Reeds Rains…
Very poor experience with Reeds Rains Stockton-on-Tees. We travelled over 3.5 hours for a confirmed viewing, but the agent arrived late and the tenant refused access, clearly showing the viewing had not been properly arranged. We waited for hours with no communication or callback from the branch despite being promised one. A completely wasted 7-hour round trip, loss of earnings, and very unprofessional service. Would not recommend.

TrustpilotWhat an absolute joke
What an absolute joke they are sold house quick but took 7 months to complete. They always had an excuse . Never there fault When rang up to chase they was just about to do it ? Never kept me upto date . Never rang back when supposed too

TrustpilotGreat service and professionalism.
It was a great experience dealing with Reeds Rains. I just landed in UK and I struggled a lot in finding a place as per my need, but special call out to Gurdit for his attitude and professionalism to make this deal for me. I dealt with Many agents before when I was here last time but Team Reeds Rains is best in every aspect be it responding to calls, emails and top class service. Thank you Gurdit and Team, much appreciated.

Don't pay any holding deposit until when they say, think and make sure the property is correct. they will not return you deposit and talk to you with no respect.Alex from Stoke on Trent is the worst person to deal with and he is manager of branches in stoke.
Hi Abdul, I’m so sorry you have had a bad experience with us. We aim to provide satisfactory service at all times. If you would like to provide more information regarding your experience with us please email marketing@reedsrains.co.uk and we will be able to look into this matter further. Kind Regards

TrustpilotBest lettings agents in the area - Gosforth
The staff at reeds rains Gosforth couldn't have made our renting experience any easier. From the viewing all the way up until us moving into the property they have been helpful in anyway they could, even down to recommending companies to help us move with us not being from the area. Big shout out to Phil and Kirsty!

My Initial Call with Lucy was warm and welcoming, she was able to accommodate myself for a viewing soon as due to my work schedule, ever since Lucy has followed up and has been nothing but above and beyond for myself and my wife, she has kept us in the loop from start to finish I would definitely highly recommend anyone to approach Lucy as I am confident that you will receive the highest level of service that we have received I am grateful for the fast and efficient process to renting my home. Once again perfect service from Lucy and the team.

TrustpilotPoor service, Beautiful properties
I rented a lovely property though Reid Raines for nearly two years with no issues with payment from myside. Me and my partner purchased our first mortgage and vacated the property in December 16th 2022 in line with our contract with all payments made to the penny. We are now on the 24th Jan 2023 and I am still chasing my deposit down which my landlord paid back the full amount to Reid Raines. The issue is no fault of my own but an admin issue between the deposit company and the estate agents not responding to each other. Sue is a manager at the Liverpool branch who often sighs down the phone and talks with an aggressive tone when asked for updates. I work in the customer service industry in a senior management position so I know how to communicate professionally which Reid Raines maybe need some top up training on. I have since paid the £25 same day bank transfer as I felt it money well spent not having to communicate with this estate agents again.Although I understand sometimes people may not be having the best day - my experience with Reid Raines is unprofessional and I seemed like I was bothering them by calling and speaking politely. They offer beautiful properties with a unprofessional service which his a shame but hopefully they can improve. 2/10

GoogleFantastic staff in the the shop but could I say a particular thank you to Patrick who made the auction version of selling a property an absolute dream. I have never done this with an option before or and Patrick was on the phone assisting day and night and his advice got me good sales from a range of properties
Thanks Angela, thank you again for your business. We're glad our auction service worked well for you. Team RR

TrustpilotHillsborough branch
Had an appointment with the mortgage advisor, Joe at hillsborough branch. Absolutely brilliant experience. Joe was lovely and so helpful. The entire team were lovely and could tell it was a nice work environment. The team was so good at communicating with me and my boyfriend so we was always up to date with everything. Would highly recommend.

GoogleI recently sold my house with Reeds Rains Ballyhack and it was a great experience from start to finish. Martin’s advice and knowledge of the local market made him an obvious choice for us when choosing an estate agent. This is now the third time we’ve dealt with him and we appreciated the regular updates he gave to us. Fiona and Pat were lovely to deal with also. Couldn’t recommend the team enough, thank you!

TrustpilotWhy do we still need Estate Agents in 2024?
Apparently this estate agent can only sell houses during THIER opening times. How ridiculous. All they need to do is contact the seller to ask if they are happy to undertake a viewing after work, around 5-6pm. If the seller is not happy with that, fine, I'll respect their wishes and find another property. My wife and I are registered with them and we've already viewed another property where the vendor showed us round. Don't the majority of people who want to buy a house work for a living? I thought estate agents had modernised their practices but Reeds Rains still seem stuck in the 80s.
Hi Zahid,Sorry for your review - we would like to investigate your issue further. You will receive a request for more information from Trustpilot. Regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotWhen the going got tough, the manager went AWOL
This is in reference to the Rye Branch.All started well with my intended property purchase, but I was to learn I made a big mistake in using their recommended company of conveyancing solicitors.When the latter proved to be simply appalling, the branch manager decided to go AWOL. No attempt was made to retrieve the situation or to contact me.That was the end of the potential sale. So very disappointing.

TrustpilotGreat experience
Simon and Kurtis made the selling of our home very straightforward. Easy to contact and no question ever too small.
We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience! It sounds like Simon and Kurtis provided exceptional service, making the process smooth and stress-free. We appreciate your kind words and are happy to hear you felt comfortable reaching out with any questions.

TrustpilotTotally incompetent imho
Totally incompetent imho. Devon & Andrew did not do comprehensive checks on our buyer verifying his funds, he did not have 10% deposit to exchange so we had to exchange with only 5%. They also neglected to inform us that the buyers funds were tied up in an ISA delaying exchange by 30 days. Add to that we dropped off the keys to the property on the Friday before completion on Monday. Devon then rang on Monday … twice… and sent an email…asking where the keys were!

GoogleExcellent estate agents! I can honestly say Reeds Rains were fantastic throughout the process. They could not have been more helpful, patient and supportive. I would have been lost without their advice and guidance. Their communication is great and I was always kept updated. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone thinking of selling or buying and am very grateful for all their hard work to ensure I had a successful sale.

Reeds rains have been excellent throughout this process of buying my property, very understanding and patient especially when I needed to see the property 3 times before making an offer, if I ever sell this property I will definitely 100% use reeds rains….
