GoogleExcellent agency and would highly recommend. After seeing a video of the property my partner and I instantly knew it was for us and jumped at the opportunity to view the property in person that very same day. Within a few hours the application process had started and has run seamlessly throughout. The contract and inspection reports have been very well done and the team have been very efficient at answering our questions. Jonathan and Mandy have been great throughout the process. Thank you for finding us a lovely home. π

GoogleI have already sold my house and am a cash buyer, but I have moved the money into different bank accounts due to financial safety reasons. Farrell Heyworth would not let me view a property without first being able to show I had all the funds available in one account, so I am unable to view any of their properties that are for sale. Are the various property owners aware that they could potentially be missing out on a sale?NegativeProfessionalism

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm sorry to hear you were somewhat disappointed in the experience. Customer service is extremely important to us and we always strive to operate with the safety of our customers at heart.
I have taken the time to discuss this matter with our Preston team. I think it's valuable to outline what our procedures with regard to viewings are, and why we are continuing with these procedures when many agents seem to have returned to pre-Covid operating practices.
Our process is as follows:
All initial enquiries to view are provided with a virtual video tour which is received within minutes of the request.
The virtual viewing is followed up and feedback obtained, this is extremely valuable to the owner of the property.
If somebody wishes to then book a physical viewing we will ascertain if they are ready to proceed. A Mortgage agreement or financial qualification is then required to put the buyer in the best possible position to offer, along with acting solicitor details. The viewing can then be arranged.
Unfortunately we still receive many requests to view properties from individuals who have no intention of buying said property. To keep our staff and customers safe we have chosen to continue with a process that will allow us to limit the amount of people that physically view to just genuine buyers.
If the person viewing the property wishes to make an offer we would require a proof of funds at this stage in any event.
Kind regards,
Jeremy Collins, Director

GoogleI really commend Jonathan Grundy for the amazing job he did.
He helped my family to secure a lease within three days of initial contact, the same property we were unable to secure with a different agency.
He interceded for us with the landlord and followed it up personally and kept updating us on progress.
Jonathan Grundy and Farrell Hayworth were really amazing.
Thanks.

GooglePhoned up to book a viewing and they didnβt get back to me. TWICE. So Iβve just been round to the house to tell the seller that they should probably use a different estate agent. The lady actually told me that she hadnβt been told at all. Iβm sure theyβll blame it on being busy, but if any potential sellers are reading this then I would advise you to use a more competent agency.

GoogleVery poor and disorganised service. Iβm a cash buyer and spent time in the penwortham office providing proof of funds and details of what I was looking for. They e mail me details of a house Iβd tried to view days before but was told was under offer, then a property Iβd tried to view 9 months ago was relisted at 4pm Saturday (when they close). No attempt to contact me as an interested buyer , phone not answered at 4.01pm, and I now have to wait till monday to try and get through. Generally it takes 30 minutes to get through on the phone.

GoogleAvoid them like a plague, I have had a very bad experience dealing with them and they lost a good customer with loads of potential investment properties for management and also purchasing some off them. I would not recommend them if you are thinking to put an offer on something or have just looked at one of their listed listings. The properties that they list are just for the sake of clickbaits otherwise if someone is a serious buyer and he/she has to buy it they will put their offer in and will try to see the estate agent work for it either to be accepted or rejected also I believe that this estate agent deliberately hikes the offers under a false pretence of receiving a higher one or something.
I wouldn't have given them this feedback but after a quite while I thought I might as well just to make other investors aware of their general practice.
I hope they will learn that if someone is providing them with all the proofs then they should actively work between the parties to close the deal.
Disappointed and never going back to them for anything.
Avoid at all cost.

GoogleAs first time buyers we really needed help and professional advice in order to arrange our mortgage. We were recommended by a friend to use Farrell Heyworth's mortgage services and we are so glad that we did. The welcome we received from Shaun and the staff in the office was brilliant. Their mortgage adviser, John Paul Harding, explained the whole process to us in simple, easy to understand terms and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. We moved into our first home last Friday, thank you Farrell Heyworth!

GoogleFarrell Heyworth estate agents called to my property that I had recently refurbished and reassured me with their professionalism from the outset starting with the valuation and attention to detail. Since then they have endeavoured to sell my property and get the best price for myself. To date I have no issues in recommending them to anyone in a similar position looking to sell their property. Shaun, Olivia, Mandy and Luke are a great team and always keep me posted of any developments.
