Hunters Bridlington reviews

When we bought our first house many years ago, Beth was soo amazing that when the time came to move on we obviously chose Hunters so Beth could give all her expertise and care along the way with the buying and selling process. She actually managed to sell our house the day it went up for sale! She then gave us the most amazing after care once it had sold ensuring we were always up to date with where we were at in terms of the process. Beth was truly amazing both times we used hunters and she genuinely was the only reason we used them again. Amazing estate agent!!

Hunters have been with me for the last couple of years while looking after and then selling a property under a Deputyship. I live 300 miles away and the staff at Bridlington have been kind, empathetic, and gone beyond a normal estate agents role. Excellent staff who are a credit to the company

Thank you Ellie, Lauren and Michelle at the Bridlington branch for all your help with a recent property purchase and for supplying me with tea whilst I waited for the keys to be released 😊 …

Wish I could give more stars

Wish I could give more stars ! BIG thank you to John Duffy and the team for guiding me through such a difficult time. An all round professional and caring service from the start. John was always passionate, easy to contact, swift with replies and information and genuinely caring of my situation. Found the perfect couple for my house and also found me a new home. Would highly recommend. 🌟 🌟 🌟

Awful customer service

I remain deeply disappointed in the way my most recent complaint has been handled at their Newcastle branch. The way the branch manager speaks to tenants is appalling! If you have a complaint then don’t expect any sympathy or accountability. We have rented this property for 11 years and in that time, we have been superb tenants but sadly that doesn’t mean anything to them. I anticipate a reply to this which will more than likely attempt to completely contradict what I’ve written here but just know that our experience has not been a positive one!

Nightmare move

I used Hunters to sell my home after living there for approximately 35 years. I want to acknowledge that the sale itself was complicated and involved significant delays, including probate and Land Registry issues. Hunters did work to keep the sale progressing, and I recognise the time and effort involved in that process. However, my experience on completion day was extremely distressing. I was still in the process of removing my belongings when the buyers and members of their family arrived at the property. My family and I were placed under considerable pressure to remove a lifetime of possessions as quickly as possible. My belongings were outside and in the street, and I felt deeply embarrassed, overwhelmed and humiliated by the circumstances. I had expected the handover of my home to be handled in a calm and organised way. Instead, what should have been an important and emotional moment after 35 years in my home became one of the most distressing experiences I have ever had. I raised a formal complaint with Hunters. The agency investigated the matter and explained that they had followed their usual procedures and were not aware that the buyers intended to attend the property at that time. I appreciate that Hunters were not present at the property and therefore could not comment directly on everything that happened there. I also appreciate that the completion process itself is controlled by solicitors and that many aspects of the timing are outside an estate agent's control. However, I remain deeply upset by the way the handover unfolded and by the experience I had on the day I left my home. I believe clearer communication and better coordination of the physical move may have prevented the situation from becoming so distressing. Having considered my experience and the response to my formal complaint, I would not recommend Hunters based on my experience of the completion and handover of my property. This review reflects my personal experience and the impact the events of completion day had on me.

Hunters - Bridlington

I have been working with this Estate Agent, particularly Beth Jackson, for quite a few months regarding selling a flat in Bridlington. From the first consultation and appraisal, Beth has been efficient and honest with no pressure to use their services. Since working with the team at Hunters I have found all their staff extremely helpful, always doing what they say and going a lot further with their services than most estate agents would. I have no doubt at all in recommending Hunters and when I sell my main home will use them again. Thank you to a brilliant set of staff.

5 years renting with no issues at all

I rented an apartment through Hunters (Otley & Ilkley) for five years and honestly had a great experience the whole time. They were always quick to reply, super easy to deal with, and sorted any issues straight away - no chasing needed. Communication with the landlord was also really smooth thanks to them. Big thanks to Donna, Libby, and Leister for being so helpful and friendly over the years. Would definitely recommend Hunters if you're looking for a letting agent you can rely on.

Not transparent, poor communication, poor customer service

1. Not transparent, even though they have a duty to disclose issues with the property once asked. When I asked why is a 2-bed in the city centre is only £995 (when I already knew the answer being ongoing construction site), they were purposely very vague. He emailed, "Regarding the prices, there are a number of factors affecting a valuation of a property which include size, conditions, time of year, building etc." 2. Get clients names mixed up and books you in for the wrong viewings. Eg. I asked to see a £995 2 bed property but they linked me to a £1300 property. I had to correct them. They also kept emailing me and calling me Chris when I said several times I am not Chris. Worrying early signs of poor communication, little to no client care. 3. Viewings are incomplete - why schedule a viewing of the property, only for me to turn up and that is when you say there is a communal laundry room but I am not allowed to view it. After the viewing I emailed back and this was their response: "The communal laundry rooms are on the stairs, one per floor. At the moment we don’t have capacity for second viewings unfortunately. I made it clear from the beginning of my enquiry that I wanted to find a quiet home to rent and no drama. Clearly, the initial contact and viewing experience already hints there will be drama, probably worse if I did sign a contract with Hunters.

My experience selling a property in the…

My experience selling a property in the UK with this agent was extremely frustrating. For over four months, they delayed the transaction. Despite my constant follow-ups, they kept giving me excuse after excuse, like mortgage problems or minor issues, saying it would happen next week. Eventually, I told them I would pull out and sell to another buyer, but Matthew insisted I still had to pay. I also want to warn people about this company, be very cautious, because in the contract, they include terms that are unfavorable to the client. Once you sign, they do very little to follow up, and you can’t even be sure if the buyer will complete the deal. Their main priority is just getting you to sign, and regardless of whether the sale happens, they still take your money. And when I tried to back out, Matthew actually threatened me, saying that if I didn’t pay, they would escalate it to other departments. I feel this is a form of intimidation.”

I am very disappointed:

I am very disappointed: After my property was managed by Brandford Hunters for around 6 years, I was suddenly charged £240 for a new rental reform bill contract and £45 plus VAT per person for AML checks. These fees were not clearly explained or agreed with me in advance. The deduction was also made from my refund before I had signed or agreed to the new contract. I feel this is unclear and unfair, especially as a long term landlord client.

I would strongly advise others to think…

I would strongly advise others to think twice before renting through this estate agent. When we signed our tenancy agreement, the property was advertised and agreed with included parking, which was a key factor in our decision to rent the flat. However, just a few months into our tenancy, the parking was suddenly closed off and made unavailable. This caused significant inconvenience and disruption to our daily lives, especially as parking had been a major factor in choosing this property. What’s particularly frustrating is how the situation was handled. The estate agent did very little to help resolve the issue and took no responsibility whatsoever, despite the parking being part of what was originally offered. Communication was poor, and we were essentially left to deal with the consequences on our own. During this time, we were forced to park in a Tesco car park and pay for parking after work. On multiple occasions there were no spaces available, meaning I had to drive around late in the evening trying to find alternative parking elsewhere. This was both stressful and time-consuming. To try and resolve the issue, my partner had to take several hours out of his working day over the course of a week, including attending a three-hour meeting. Despite this effort, the only solution offered was for the landlord to contribute just 50% towards alternative parking, which was located far away from our building in a public car park. Even with this contribution, it would still leave us paying over £100 extra per month for something that was originally included. To make matters worse, the flat has now been re-let at a significantly lower price than we were paying. We were paying £1,200 per month with parking included, yet it has since been advertised for under £1,000 per month without parking. In that context, the offer to contribute just 50% towards inconvenient, off-site parking feels completely inadequate and frankly quite insulting. We were ultimately forced to find a new property, which cost us hundreds of pounds in moving expenses, required taking multiple days off work, and caused a huge amount of stress. Despite this, the agent offered no compensation and even suggested we should be grateful to have been released from the contract. Once we had agreed to leave due to the parking issues and lack of support, we were then required to accommodate viewings of the property. This took up additional hours of my partner’s working day and caused further disruption at an already stressful time while we were trying to organise our move. Only months after we moved out did the agent state that the landlord would cover the additional parking costs we incurred, but this was conditional on us agreeing to drop any other potential claims. We will not be agreeing to this. Had they taken proper responsibility for misrepresenting the property and the significant inconvenience, cost, and stress caused, this situation may have been handled very differently. The issues didn’t stop there. They then attempted to charge us money from our deposit for items such as “discoloration in the washing machine drawer”, something that was already documented in the original check-in report. They provided an amount for repair without any supporting cost evidence. When we challenged this and requested proof, the quotes we eventually received were extremely high and unreasonable. We had to stand our ground and escalate the matter to TDS for dispute resolution, and only then did we end up paying only 40% of what they were trying to charge. It has now been months since we left the property and we still have not received our full deposit back, which is adding further financial strain and stress. Overall, this experience has been extremely disappointing. A letting agent should provide support, take responsibility, and offer fair, reasonable solutions when issues arise. Unfortunately, this agent failed on all counts, and I would not recommend using them

Avoid this agency at all costs.

I paid a £135 holding deposit to secure a room with an agreed move‑in date. The moment they took my money, they changed the date and told me I could only move in several days later. Because of their change, I could no longer proceed and asked for a refund, which they refused. Every part of the process felt unprofessional. They changed key terms after taking payment, ignored the written agreement, and then tried to keep the deposit even though the change was entirely on their side. I had to escalate the issue to the Property Ombudsman because they simply would not do the right thing. This experience caused unnecessary stress, wasted time, and disrupted my housing plans. Based on how they handled this situation, I would strongly advise others to be extremely cautious before handing over any money.

Robot refused to give me a viewing

Awful experience trying to arrange a viewing. Spent yonks on the phone with a robot. It asked me unnecessary questions and misheard things; then had to reconfirm everything. Eventually it was happy. I hung up and it started again this time by text. In the end it refused to let me have a viewing unless I told them my spending budget - which I wasn't prepared to do. Do not sell your property through these idiots.

We sold our house through Hunters Bridlington within a couple of days, all the staff we spoke to were very helpful and knowledgeable, we were kept informed every step of the way and felt as though they had our best interests in mind at all times. We can't recommend them highly enough.

Disappointed

Disappointed, we learned our house purchase had fallen through at the point of us being ready to exchange on our property. We found out that the office had known about it and left it to the agent, who had been looking after us, to tell us after she came back from annual leave! We never got a reason for the purchase to fall through and they even tried delaying us putting an offer in on another property. Luckily this was with another agent and we trusted our gut as the trust with Hunters had gone. 7 weeks later we were in our new home. Felt let down and disappointed with Hunters. This was our first and last time dealing with them.

My experience with Hunters was deeply disappointing. Repeated administrative errors relating to notices and tenancy handling caused unnecessary delays, additional time, and avoidable stress during possession proceedings. When I recently contacted the branch again regarding future instructions, I was informed in a dismissive manner that they no longer wished to work with me due to previous disputes, disputes which arose from their own handling failures. Professionalism, accountability, and respectful communication appear seriously lacking based on my experience!

Invasion of privacy-HUNTERS LETTING AGENTS IN TRING-why not answering e mails matters

HUNTERS LETTING AGENTS IN TRING Thinking of renting via Hunters in Tring? My experience is very poor, at the moment they are not even replying to my e mails. Have had lots of problems with hot water etc, but my Xmas has been ruined by landlord taking it upon themselves to enter my home, poke around, opening cupboards etc, comment on water heater left on, all whilst I am away, under the pretext of a non essential repair that has been outstanding for 4 months at least. Hunters seem to think this is all ok, no reply to any of my e mails (nothing new there), for the last 4 days. I think this is really irresponsible behaviour by a letting agent as this feels like an invasion of privacy, am struggling to get early flight home to try to stop this from happening. I think there are good reasons why Hunters don't actively have a trust pilot account, on reading the reviews that is understandable.

Enquired about a property

Enquired about a property. Travelled a round trip of 10 hours to view said property. Landlord accepted application but needed to contact freeholder to seek permission to let. Original chap I was dealing with was superb, but he went on leave. Hunters then left me sat for a week without communication, and let to someone else during that period. Absolutely infuriating waste of time and effort and an appalling way to treat a potential customer. Don't go near them.
