GoogleWe rented a property through Whitegates and had a great experience from start to finish. Karen carried out the viewing and was brilliant throughout, really friendly, helpful, and professional. Communication was excellent the whole way through, which made the process so smooth and stress-free. Couldn’t fault the service at all. Highly recommend!

GoogleThank you so much to Gail at the Bradford office. My mum sold her beloved house and bought a new property with whitegates. Gail was at hand at all times and kept in touch along the way. This was a very daunting time for my mum after losing her husband it was the first major thing she had done without him. Gail made sure she understood everything and was so kind to keep me updated throughout , so we didn’t put pressure on my mum. Gail you made this process so simple, easy and efficient. A real asset to whitegates thank you again x

Absolutely fantastic service from everyone involved at Whitegates Estate Agents.
My house was valued, the brochure / virtual tour produce and multiple viewings booked in within just a couple of weeks.
Max and Gail kept me updated every step of the way and worked tirelessly to get the sale completed from start to finish in just a few months.
I could not be happier or recommend Whitegates Estate Agents highly enough.
Thanks again ?

AllAgentsProfessional and friendly
I've had experience with Whitegates in the rental market before but this is the first time I've bought a house from them.
The entire process was faultless. From arranging my multiple viewings of the house to getting my offer accepted and processed, I felt like they were on the ball throughout the process.
Ella was amazing. She would regularly call up to check up on my progress and was also friendly and helpful whenever I chased her up for updates.

I have an ongoing legal matter which affects a flat I own and I was struggling for some sound advice as to what to do. Fortunately I remembered Ian at Whitegates and after a short phone call he took my problem under his wing and very quickly sorted it out for me. I found him and his team highly efficient very pleasant to deal with and am most grateful for their sssistance in what was becoming a real issue for me. I really can’t recommend them enough.

TrustpilotAbsolutely abysmal
Absolutely abysmal. I contacted this complete farce of an agency in order to secure a property ahead of relocating from Scotland. They managed to waste more than a week of my time without bothering to inform me that I had not secured the property. Haanna (who sounds like she is more used to chewing gum at the mall than managing properties) failed to respond to messages or offer any updates as to my progress. Each time I called I spoke to a different person, none of whom seemed to be able to communicate with anybody else. I was told that the person I needed to speak to was in meetings when in fact they were working from home, and spun a clear fabrication in order to excuse the failure to communicate with me. Despite repeatedly clarifying my specific needs, each conversation required
me to begin from scratch to the befuddlement of an endless procession of fools. I gather, from a brief chat with one person, that the staff turnover rate is high. This is evident in the chaos and the complete disregard for customer service which I experienced here. Letting agents already enjoy a somewhat poor reputation. Dodgy outfits like this are the reason why. I recommend you sleep in a tent before you engage with this confederacy of dunces.
Re Ian's reply: On Friday the 17th September, I phoned Whitegates Bradford, expressed my interest in a property and explained my situation, namely: I was moving from the Northeast of Scotland, needed to be in place by the first week of October, and therefore would not be able to conduct a physical viewing. Let's call this opportunity number 1 to inform me that a physical viewing was required. Instead, I was told that that was fine and I would receive the forms to begin the process that day. On Saturday the 18th I received the application forms, which were signed and returned on the 19th.
Bear in mind that it was therefore my understanding that I was in the process of securing the property so I stopped looking elsewhere. As far as I was aware, I already had a property pending credit and referee checks, an understanding which was supported by my correspondence with Ethan on the 17th.
On the 20th, I emailed Gail to check that my forms had been received and she confirmed that Haana would be contacting me to arrange a viewing. On the 21st, having not heard from Haana, I emailed Gail to confirm, again, that I was not able to view in person and wished to proceed with renting the property. That's opportunity number 2 to tell me that you require a physical viewing. Gail did not reply. On the 23rd, I called the office, repeated my situation to yet another person and was told nobody was available to help. That's 3 opportunities to tell me that I would not be able to proceed. On the 24th, I called Gail. Repeated my situation AGAIN and was assured that Haana would get back to me (that's 4 chances). She finally did and I repeated my situation yet again. That's 5 chances to tell me a single piece of information. Instead, Haana said that, as somebody else had been interested in the property, she had not bothered to contact me or inform me of this situation at any point. That sounds like an excuse to me. It is, regardless, abominable customer service. Haana then called back to say that manager Sam insisted on a physical viewing and could I just pop over on Saturday the 25th to view the property, and that somebody else would be viewing on the same day.
So your manager, Sam, suggested that I travel - with one day's notice - 300 miles to view a property with no assurances that it would even be available by the time I got there.
What part of this suggests competence or an even passing understanding of customer service?
Paul · 24 September 2021
Agent replied
Dear Paul,
Thank you for your review.
I have just looked at the file notes which read:
Put in an app for 56 Stonegate House and wanted to go ahead without viewing. We already had someone in place who paid a holding fee. The app didn't go ahead so called Paul to ask him if he wants to proceed. Spoke to Sam and she said we have someone else who is willing to go ahead but she would prefer if Paul views the apartment due to the damp in the property. Paul said he cant view and we've wasted his time and doesn't want to go ahead.
I do sympathize with your present position, not being available to view properties. We are currently receiving unprecedented levels of inquiries for all our Letting properties and I have to admit we are swamped at this moment in time. My team genuinely do strive to provide the highest levels of customer service and I do feel that your comments are unwarranted and in relation to staff turnover are inaccurate. I wish you all the best in securing suitable accommodation. Although Bradford's weather may not be that of Scotland's over winter, I still hope you do not have to resort to a tent. Regards. Ian.

GoogleVery unprofessional. Rung to book a viewing. Marie was very rude and aggressive on the phone when I called. Should have avoided yet I thought it didn't matter as she wouldn't be showing me the property anyway. Arrived 10 minutes earlier for a viewing at 5:30pm. It hit 5:50pm and nobody arrived. Rung several times and was told office was closed and only admin available. Lady at admin was very nice however assured me that I just needed to wait. Left as nobody turned up in the end. Whitegates wasted both my time and money. Very disappointed with the service provided.

AllAgents"I owned a property in..."
I owned a property in Bradford but I am based in London. Whitegates took on my property in 2007 and have managed it up until I sold in December 2023. From the start to finish , 16 years they have looked after it , arranging maintenance jobs when needed and not over charging. Informed me of any changes and general property updates. I highly recommend them as over those 16 years I have rarely had to get involved. Samatha, Annabel and Ian have all been great points of contact and always on hand if you have any questions.

GoogleI wanted to reach out to share my recent experience with White Gates Services, as I had heard many positive reviews about Whitegates. Unfortunately, my experience has not reflected the high standard of professionalism I was led to expect.
Throughout my time as a client, I’ve found it difficult to receive consistent updates or follow-up communications, even after repeated assurances from white gates team. Commitments to update me were often unfulfilled, which has impacted my confidence in your service.
I believe that strong communication is essential to building positive client relationships. I hope this feedback is helpful and encourages more reliable communication in the future, as I genuinely wanted my experience to be as positive as others have found.
