We use Reeds Rains to manage our properties and they are dreadful. Had a major issue with one of the properties as it was allegedly inspected and was in a filthy state with flooring ripped up & no bath panels but was deemed in a good condition. There were at least 60 bin liners thrown in the garden and has cost us a fortune removing it all. We have been paying a management fee for non management . They are very good at over charging for small jobs doing and pass the buck if they’re is a problem. The problem is with head office in Southampton and no reflection on the local office & staff

Had a great experience viewing a property with Reeds Rains. It is our first time buying and the first call I had with Naoimh was just so lovely, friendly and really helpful. She gave advice / pointed us in the right direction in terms of mortgages and generally was just lovely to speak to. We then went out to view a house and the agent who showed us around was so lovely and professional (I wish I could remember her name?!). We decided not to move forward with the property as it wasn’t right for us but it’s still early days and Reeds Rains were such a great company to be there for our very first viewing / beginning of our house buying journey!

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.

Naoimh was really helpful from the start of the letting process to the end. So grateful for assistance in a whole new venture of letting out house.

Delightful Laura Jayne…

We have been dealing with Laura Jayne from the Newcastle office, she has kept us informed every step of the way through our purchase. She has answered every call and replied to every email and contacted us whenever there was news to be relayed or a question we needed answering. She has done this with complete professionalism and friendliness, and we have not even met her yet, she has been such a delight to deal with and we cannot wait to meet her to collect our keys and start a new chapter in our life She is an absolute credit to Reeds Rains.

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.

FOR THE ATTENTION OF REEDS RAINS

FOR THE ATTENTION OF REEDS RAINS - CUSTOMER SERVICE.First of all we notice that Reeds Rains customer service can not get our name correct, our name is Anderson and we have never been known by Andrew?So if you are going to get in touch with us about our experience around the lack of customer service from your Reeds Rains - Prescot office in Merseyside, then please get our name correct?Our experience that we received from your Reeds Rains - Prescot office in Merseyside, was lacking in customer service on all counts.We saw this house on the Saturday the 18th of March at 10.35 a.m., and we put our offer in on the same day!!We did wait over 3 weeks to see this house, and we did put in an offer for this house, but the staff did nothing to confirm to the vendor completely our position that we were in to buy the house. We had everything to go and we were in a very strong position!!Only to find after all our efforts that the vendor went for another person`s offer? We could have gone higher with our offer, but Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside never asked us at all? We also waited over 3 weeks to see the house concerned, and so there was a delay for anyone viewing the house!This caused us more stress, upset, and annoyance and at the end our time was wasted!The experience we received from the staff at Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside, was real and it happened,. We have not lied and we have told the truth.If anyone from Reeds Rains - Customer Service wants to speak with us directly then you can telephone us, but we are not going to argue on what happened to us! We are the ones that were on the end of the lack of customer service from your Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside office, and this did not happen to anyone in Reeds Rains customer service either?Our write up for the Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside office has been here since the 18th of March, and you are only now asking us questions about our experience, from your Reeds Rains Customer Service office only now?Please do not keep sending us messages asking us questions about our experience from your Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside office, as you can contact us directly and ask us the same questions directly, instead of doing this from behind an email only?Trustpilot is here so members of the public can write down their experiences of customer service they have had from companies, and so that any general members of the public can read the write ups, and decide for themselves if they are going to use a company for themselves or not.So therefore we are not going to change our write up that we have written on the Reeds Rains - Prescot Merseyside office.We do not intend to use any Reeds Rains estate agents, for anything at anytime in the future due to the lack of customer service.The service we received lacked in customer service, and it was unprofessional.If anyone was sincere in Reeds Rains Customer Service, you do not wait for over a week to respond to a customers complaint from way back in March 2023, when we are now in May 2023? The normal response would be to contact the customer direct and get from the customer what happened, to them from the estate agent concerned.As that has never happened the experience we received from the Reeds Rains - Merseyside Prescot office, will continue from the Reeds Rains - Merseyside Prescot office, has nothing is done about it?

UNPROFESSIONAL AND LACKING IN CUSTOMER SERVICE.

We had an appointment to view a house in Prescot - Merseyside, on the Saturday the 18th of March, but there was a delay of 3 weeks from the original appointment, which was put back by 3 weeks to view the house.When making the appointment to view the house, the estate agency Reeds Rains in Prescot, wrote down the wrong email address and so therefore we never got a confirmation of the viewing appointment for the house.This meant we then had to ring back to the Reeds Rains - Prescot office, and get them to amend the email address, and resend us a confirmation email confirming the viewing of the house in Prescot - Merseyside.We noticed yet again, Reeds Rains - Prescot, does not like to communicate by phone if they can avoid it!!Surprise Surprise, the estate agency is Reeds Rains - Prescot office!!People renting the house needed an extra 10 days to move out, then the vendor took another whole week to tidy up the house, and not anyone at Reeds Rains, then phoned us and confirmed the viewing was still on for the Saturday the 18th of March 2023?We had to phone Reeds Rains- Prescot office to check that the viewing was still on?!!Sadly when we saw the house, which had the roof of the porch off, which was flung in the back garden, no side gate on the side of the house leading to the garden, no front drive gates on the driveway, no doors on any rooms in the house either!!We could see what the house would look like with our care put into restoring the house back up again, even the garden was crazy with unlevel layers of the garden lawn, but we looked past that, and could see the house looking what it would like with our restoration done to it!!We asked before attending the viewing if the vendor was after the asking price only, to that question, we got "The vendor was after the asking price only".So we put in our offer of full asking price!!We waited over 5 days, and then the Reeds Rains - Prescot office decides to ring My husband on his mobile phone while he is at work, to tell him the vendor has gone for a higher offer.There was no conversation to My husband, can you possibly go higher with your offer for the house?The conversation from the Manager was abrupt, and very short!!My husband was not able to read emails, or make any calls or send any text messages at all, from work.When we ring the Reeds Rains - Prescot office the Manager concerned could not understand why we were phoning to ask what the answer was to our offer?The Manager`s reply was "Has your husband not given you the message"?My reply to that was "How can he do that, when he can not make phone calls from work, that is why I am phoning now and asking you the Manager yourself"?When we corrected the Manager, by informing him they had our landline phone number to call us at home in the first place with the answer to our original offer to the vendor?We pointed out to the Manager, that if we had been told that our offer for this house was accepted, we could easily now say we have changed our minds on this house in Prescot due to the delays on trying to see the house, and answers as to if our offer for this house in Prescot was accepted?58 people showed interest in this house, only 3 parties gave offers, we gave the full asking price, yet the vendor, went for a higher figure from another purchaser?!!!This Reeds Rains - Prescot office of estate agents did not ring us back and even ask us if we could go higher with our offer at all?We had to keep ringing them over everything, and they hardly rang us once.The end result was we never bought any house with Reeds Rains - Prescot office, even though we tried to purchase one!!A very unprofessional Reeds Rains - Prescot office, who failed to produce a house, even though we were in a very strong position to purchase a house.Yet again, Reeds Rains, still keep acting and behaving in unprofessional manners, and no customer service at all.Again our advice still is do not use Reeds Rains - Prescot office to purchase or rent a house.To Reeds Rains - customer service,Our experience of the Reeds Rains Prescot Office was real, and it actually happened to us.We quite simply made an offer for a house, and no one came back and even asked us if we could go higher with our price for the house either?There was a delay of 3 weeks on seeing the house, and that did not help either. Our write up has been here since the 18th of March 2023, and you are only now asking us what happened? We have told the truth and not lied. The way we were treated was not okay, and on the whole when you are trying to buy a house that process was then made more difficult via the estate agent concerned which was Reeds Rains from Prescot.If you want to ring us and speak with us directly then you can do so, but we are not going to start arguing about what happened to us, from the service we received from your estate agent in Prescot. The West Derby office, was similar.

Reeds rain.

Reeds rain.. cowboy company that cannot be trusted. Very quick to make things happen when it suits them yet takes incredible amount of time getting through and dealing with issues. One thing after another.. blame landlord or blame letting agency for being slow? Boiler been out several months, once it was ‘fixed’ after returning 3 times to resolve the issue it then turned into a fire hazard and the best they can do is constantly delay it and avoid the matter. Everyday since I have moved into this apartment has caused me nothing but problems, problems they should’ve dealt with prior to moving in.. forcing me to deal with it and go out my way costing me my time, job and peace. Would not recommend. Lucky I still have a roof over my head for 2 stars.

The Reeds Rains staff in Rhyl branch are generally very good, especially Katie, who is extremely committed, professional and helpful. As a Landlord however, I cannot say the same of the centralised maintenance division of Reeds Rains and I would not recommend nor use them again myself. Hence my reason for not awarding 5 stars to Reeds Rains in general.

Refusing to pay back my deposit

I moved out a property managed by the Catford branch 5 months ago and they are refusing to pay back my deposit. The amount is not disputed by either party. My tenancy ended in January and I gave them the required 1 month notice that I would not be renewing the contract and gave them the new tenants details. They say they cannot release my deposit until the new contract is signed. However, they have taken half a year(!) to do the required checks (PAT, fire etc) before they will release a contract. Communication has been awful, bounced around people and branches with no taking responsibility to resolve this. Often I was gave the wrong information or told I would be called back and never was, multiple emails ignored. I have now been through three stages of the complaint procedure with still no resolution so I've raised it with the Property Ombudsman. DO NOT USE THESE LETTING AGENTS IF YOU ARE A TENANT. No one at the company cares about your rights.

Received exceptional service from Huddersfield Reeds Rains branch from start to finish. Special thanks to Ronnie who assisted me with the house purchase. Extremely happy with the high level of customer service, professionalism and readiness to help. Ronnie had thorough knowledge about the house and answered all my questions, also he verified my proof of funds therefore speeded up the whole process. Thanks also to Tracey in the huddersfield office she was very helpful and dealt with everything in a prompt and efficient manner. Very grateful and really appreciate the exemplary service I received. Thank you so much.

Avoid Reeds Rains Liverpool at All Costs!

As a landlord who had the misfortune of entrusting two properties to Reeds Rains Liverpool City Centre, I cannot stress enough how utterly incompetent and unprofessional this company is. From start to finish, my experience was a nightmare.First and foremost, they failed to return my tenants' deposits in a timely manner, which created unnecessary stress and frustration. The staff (especially Leighton McMylor - lettings manager, and Ben Latham who's an ex lettings negotiator) are rude and dismissive, showing a complete lack of respect or care for landlords or tenants. To make matters worse, they have an unbelievably high turnover rate, with new staff seemingly replacing the old ones every month. This meant I was constantly dealing with unfamiliar people who had no idea about my properties or ongoing issues. They didn’t even bother to inform me when staff left, so I often wasted weeks waiting for responses from people who no longer worked there.Their negligence doesn’t stop there. They completely failed to conduct the regular inspections they were contractually obligated to perform. This left my properties vulnerable and unchecked for damage or maintenance issues. Even worse, they allowed tenants to leave before their contracts ended without my knowledge or approval, directly causing financial loss.The lack of communication is staggering, emails go unanswered for weeks, if they’re answered at all. On top of all this, they stopped my insurance from paying out for the tenants they irresponsibly let go early, leaving me with no recourse for the financial damage they caused.It’s clear Reeds Rains Liverpool only cares about taking fees while providing absolutely no service in return. Their incompetence, dishonesty, and lack of accountability are appalling.Save yourself the stress, financial loss, and frustration, do NOT work with Reeds Rains Liverpool. They are the absolute worst letting agents I’ve ever dealt with.

Naoimh has been the letting agent for my home while I work abroad for the year. She is diligent, sensible, a good communicator and on the ball. It was great having her deal with the vetting and negiotations with the tennants as well as the marketing of the property. Experienced and skilled. Highly recommended.

Really good experience selling my house with Reed Rains. The photographer did a great job with the photos and the staff were always available to help with queries and provide advice especially Granine who made the whole process so much easier. Grainne is very experienced and her knowledge and attention to detail helped keep everything on track. I would certainly recommend Reed Rains if you are thinking of selling your home, they provide a great service.
