Unnecessary charges for buyers

Beware. If you happen to buy a property from them. Each person will have to fork £48 ID checks. That usually done by solicitor as part of their package. While they need to verify.i don't see the point of extra payment. I would say go get that money from their customer ( seller of property)

AWFUL experience, choose another agent.

AWFUL experience. I was moved into a house that had not been thoroughly checked by the estate agent, so there was no ventilation in the bathroom (legal requirement), a missing fire alarm, broken glass, the property hadn't been thoroughly cleaned, no working freezer, no security alarm... the list goes on. I had to go into branch a number of times, emailing for months on end, was told by a maintenance team member to 'forget it'. I managed to end my tenancy early which cost me a lot of time and was very stressful. They now are making no effort to attempt to get my deposit returned, so I'm having to formally raise a dispute. This is months of unnecessary stress. Save yourself the pain, don't rent from them.

Very disappointed in Reed Rains…

Very disappointed in Reed Rains Evesham, sale of my house took far longer than it should have due to their lack of due diligence (which they claimed was there strong point) sale fell through twice, I had to push them for communication every week and all they kept saying was “we have put a call in? We have sent an email” Best bit was with in 30 minutes of Me telling them I had exchanged I received their bill!!!Would not recommend unless you are prepared to wait and chase them every step of the way

Everyone at Reeds Rains in Grimsby were brilliant especially Sophie and Jess. I put the house on the market and it sold straight away. It was my divorce that made the process far slower but they were amazing and kept in touch. They were so nice. Thank you for everything 😊

Highly recommended.

We had to sell my mums house after she passed away suddenly. Jack and Jeremy made an awful experience so much easier. We live 350 miles away and they took care of everything: the viewings, valuation etc and kept me constantly informed. I can't recommended them highly enough. Professional, courteous and very approachable. I found their charges more than fair.

We bought a house and were promised by the Manager that the house will be cleared of all rubbish. We still found rubbish and kept on requesting them to clear and they were not interested.I am surprised after reminders and so many reminders they ignored.Try to avoid if you can, can not be trusted.

Reeds rain were representing the previous home owners we bought our house off! We only dealt with Alan throughout the process. We had a few issues along the way that were completely out of the control of reeds rain. Alan gave us regular updates and was extremely professional and communicative the entire time. He was always there to answer any questions we had and went out of his way to help us.

Great service with patience and a welcome sense of humour!

I sold my parents' property in Sheffield with Reeds Rains Dinnington. I dealt with Carly, Andrea, but primary Elizabeth March as my personal contact. The sale was not straightforward, but at all times Liz was courteous, fair to both parties and had an all-important sense of humour. She and they are a credit to the company and deserve tremendous praise and thanks.

Dont use in house solicitors. Be warned ⚠️

Decided to put our mothers house on the market. Back in june . When someone wanted to buy it . we was advised to use there solicitors oniell patient solicitors from MANCHESTER not local which was strange. . Well the buyer was a cash buyer so should be straight forward i thought. Well here we are week 7 and no further forward. Tryed calling them to query time put on hold for eternity asked for several call backs nothing . So went through estate agent and guess what no help. Just told to sit and wait . Well its all good well but when you have no where to live after house is sold and you cant put your name on a lease until you get a date . Well how long does a no chain sale take . Me i thought weeks not this shet show by both parties on this . I would never use a in house solicitors again . Never . Stick to local firms not call centres .especially after reading the reviews about the solicitors.

Sue has been a fantastic support to me since the day I joined the Liverpool branch Reed’s rains. I always trust her to let me know what’s going on and she is fantastic at getting issues sorted both big and small. She’s so easy to speak to

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!!4 years ago the council came to inspect the property to make sure the house was suitable for living in. After finding numerous issues they put together a long list of maintainence problems that needed sorting within a month. Reeds rains act as the middle man between my landlord and myself and after endless phone calls and the works still not been done 4 years later, I have had to get the council involved and now the local MP due to there incompentance. I never get up dated, myself and the land lord have been repeatedly lied too, phone calls and emails not returned, refusal to speak to a manager, messages to the manger to call never returned, a call regarding broken boiler and no hot water (I have a son) resulted been told in "boil the kettle and fill the bath that way (I have a one cup kettle for starter ffs!), my sons asthma aggrivated by the damp and mould unresolved issues in the house, leaks in the house never attended too, same contractors coming a to do quotes in the works 4 times in the last 4 years with no work actually starting, the wall crumbling in my sons room, leaks in the roof.... I could go on an on to the point where this review would end up been a book.The property management team for reeds rains are an absolute disgrace!! Not one of them would be able to tell the @rse from a hole in the ground.Reeds rains... Get your bloody act together!!!! Landlords pay you a monthly fees to do a job and that job never gets done.I have rights as a tenant and this tenant is sick to the back teeth of all the lies and incompetence. I am now taking my case further!!Reeds Rains.... As for you reply below, the issue is with your company, not the landlord. You are the middle man as said before and it is you who have neglected to pass on the correct information to all parties as well as ignoring the issues and allowing this to continue for 4 years. The senior has called me and continued to lie and was called out on then tried to back track on what she said. You need to stop passing the book and do you jobs!

Customer should come first

Asked to view a property they said it will take five days then they said if interested it will take four months for the tenant to leave and purchase the property and would only accept a very inflated price I don’t think they are interested in selling the property or that’s how they made me think whoever is in charge of this company needs to get a grip because there staff don’t seem to have the company’s interests first,very disappointed at the service

Used Reeds Rains Congleton branch as lettings agent

Used Reeds Rains Congleton branch as lettings agent (first time landlord). They have been absolutely abysmal. Impossible to get someone to call you back or answer emails. Don't explain anything and just send random forms or documents with no cover email or explanation and then a really rude follow up email asking why you haven't signed and returned yet. Also caught the person showing prospective tenants around my property being incredibly rude about me and telling them private details about my work and travel - this could enable anyone scoping out the property to return and actually burgle the place. Plus it is just incredibly unprofessional. The branch also placed tenants without telling us anything about which tenants they were considering even though the only referenced one of the tenants (it was a couple) and when I complained told me I had signed a form allowing them to act for me and they could put anyone in and didn't have to let me know anything beforehand. Second month in the tenants have already missed a rent payment. Avoid at all costs!

Liverpool office is a disgrace

Liverpool office is a disgrace. Don’t return calls, ignore emails. Tell you lie after lie When you chase them up the person you originally spoke to is convenient off sick, ask to speak to the manager and they are convenient not in the office either. Staff are just rude every member of staff. Actually told me someone had left yet I seen them in the office the following week. They are a joke and you feel like they just sit there thinking of ways to upset people just horrible.

Will update complaint progress.

Did not see me or try to contact me for a viewing appointment when I was parked outside for an hour. Proven by the tenant and car tracker to have been there twenty minutes prior to appointment and forty after. Initially told (not a direct quote) 'It's one of those things, nothing we can do about it'.In advance, produced an extensive document and proposal for the owner to decide whether or not my circumstances made me eligible to even apply for the tenancy. Not read or passed on by Alistair in the Chesterfield office, who over the phone was clearly reading my script for the first time. Potential wasted time, travel, other opportunities and costs.Complaint lodged, (they are members of the The Property Ombudsman service)At this point I cannot recommend a landlord or tenant to trust the level of their competence in applying customer services.Will update complaint progress.UPDATEReeds Rains asking me for personal information and more details of the case via TrustPilot. Do they have so many formal complaints in one day at Chesterfield that they cannot keep track of them?
