TrustpilotCarol is rude
Carol at the Ashton under lyne branch is lazy and rude. Couldn't really be bothered when viewing a house and was looking at me like I'm poor when I actually purchased outright with no mortgage. When I called the branch to put an offer on a house she took my offer then never called me back. I chased and she rudely laughed at me down the phone saying I wasn't in a position to purchase said house (how would she know this?) so I withdrew and bought another with home estate agents.
Hi there,Sorry to read your review, we take your feedback extremely seriously. We would like to look into this further for you but we require more information. You will receive a request from Trustpilot for more information.Regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotReeds Rains Rhyl
The team in Rhyl were amazing. As first time buyers we didn’t have a clue on the processes and Derry explained everything and kept us up to date during the purchasing process. Matt was brilliant with his mortgage advice and made the mortgage process so much easier than we imagined. Would highly recommend to anyone buying or selling.
Thank you - I'll let Reeds Rains Rhyl know!

TrustpilotLook no more, Nicola, Craig and Dea are your people…
Sold our flat with Reeds Rains Estate Agents Plaistow. We had exceptional service from start to finish, thanks to Nicola, Craig and Dea. Their professional photos were taken immediately after we signed up with them, all of the viewings were handled professional.Nicola from Reeds Rains Estate Agent Plaistow has been excellent. She was professional throughout. She listened and acted to suggestions as well as providing advice and support. The real unique difference to other agents is she was always available working well beyond office hours as she really puts her heart and soul into her business. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell their home.

TrustpilotRent due, Is it that difficult?
Rent due, log into online portal. Says monthly. Bank transfer 12 months worth to them. Week later call from landlord, have you paid? Yes. Few minutes later, call from RR, do you want to set up another 12 months? Well first, it's gone to an automatic rolling contract, and secondly if you want to setup another 12 months then maybe it's a good idea to do it IN ADVANCE, thirdly because it's a monthly payment and you haven't sent any communication I ALREADY sent payment to you on the due date same as previous year. After last year where I had to chase myself for the rent, this year I decided to just let things sort themselves out this time round. This does however leave the question, what do reeds rains actually do for landlords/tenants? The landlord actually asked me to confirm with them that reeds rains have found the 7 grand I sent because RR probably won't do this. I'm not angry, these things happen more disappointed that this company seems to struggle with simple things. I did suggest that my landlord use another company as it's obvious that this one has issues.
Hi Ronnie,We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and frustration you experienced with our company. We deeply regret any miscommunication or lack of responsiveness you encountered while trying to make your rent payment. Your feedback is invaluable to us as it helps us identify areas for improvement.I have requested for more information, this will come from Trustpilot.Regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotI strongly advise against using this…
I strongly advise against using this property management company. My experience with them has been nothing short of dreadful. I was constantly having to chase them for updates on the tenant eviction process. As of June 20th, I was told the matter was "under investigation." However, it wasn't until July 1st that I was finally informed the tenant had vacated the property, with rent paid through May 31st. In retrospect, this means my property sat vacant for an entire month with no notification from the agent. This is an absolute disaster and a complete dereliction of their duties as the property manager.The level of incompetence, lack of communication, and failure to keep me informed in a timely manner is unacceptable. This agent has provided the worst service I have ever encountered. I would caution any landlord against entrusting this company with the management of their rental property.

Dealt with William Clayton upon vacating a property that had huge amounts of black mould all throughout. He argued back and forth when we tried to get our deposit back even though we left the property in perfect condition. We took videos before and after we left the property. Will never rent or buy a property with Prescot Reeds Rains again.

We take customer satisfaction very importantly and as such I would like to look into the issues further. Please could you email me at: enquiries@reedsrains.co.uk. I will be happy to investigate the matter further.Kind regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotWonderful! Really very helpful
You were really very helpful, listened & understood. Some agents just wanted to give a valuation without viewing our home and seriously undervalued what it was worth.The viewings were on time, you obviously know what you are doing as it sold in a week, quicker than we expected.All in all a very pleasant experience.Thanks, will recommend your professionalism to others.

TrustpilotDiabolical service - Stockton/Middlesbrough
We requested an early tenancy termination with 6 months notice (to leave 2 months earlier than contracted due to buying a new build property). We have lived in the property for 7.5 years and never caused an issue. We are now less than 3 weeks away from moving and NOTHING has been done. Delays on responses from the agents for over 4-5 weeks at a time despite being chased, the house is still not up for relet online yet they are expecting us to be liable for all costs until another tenant occupies the property. The service has been nothing but abysmal. My garden is currently a hazard to both mine and my neighbours children due to a falling down fence in the garden which was reported over 4 MONTHS AGO!!! Again chased numerous times but nothing has been done. An ignition hob that hasn’t worked in the whole 7 years we’ve been here, damp in the bathroom for over a year yet the rent still went up last year given all these outstanding issues. Avoid renting from Reeds at all costs.
Hi Taylor,We're disappointed to read this review after as you say a longer term tenancy which as far as I can see has been on the whole successful. We're sorry you feel we have offered a service that has fallen short of what you expected. As you are aware, we had reached out to the landlord when we received your request to ask if you could break the contract. We do need to wait for consent to end a tenancy earlier than the fixed term and sometimes it can take a little while for the landlord to process what is involved and any costs they had not planned for. The maintenance team were reviewing the fence with you, your neighbour and the landlord in an attempt to determine ownership in advance of repairs being instructed. We will be in touch to follow up as I understand you have now left the property and dropped keys to branch.Regards,Reeds Rains

The staff at Reeds Rains Ormeau Road made selling my house an easy process Ryan who was the estate agent whom I was dealing with was my main point of contact and was always very friendly, approachable, pleasant to deal with and knowledgeable as was Grainne the main negotiator who gave me good advice when required who I dealt with over phone and kept me constantly updated throughout the transition of selling the property which was sale agreed within a matter of weeks. I can highly recommend them

TrustpilotSelling experience
Everything! I have used a few estate agents over the years and I would say, these are by far the best I have dealt with. The staff are very professional, approachable and very quick to reply to queries. David is an asset to the company, nothing is to much trouble, he is a very hard worker and yet still remains pleasant and approachable. I am a bit of a forgetful fruitcake, but they have managed to keep me on track and everything is going great. The girls I have spoken to have all been lovely. If I were to sell my house again ( which I am never going to) I would use Reeds Rains with no hesitations.

TrustpilotReally awful company to deal with
Really awful company to deal with. They lie many times and avoid responsibility for their incompetence, Integrity is missing in bucketloads but greed is a paramount behaviour. Why this company is allowed to operate as a tenancy management company with utter contempt toward the customer is beyond me. Hard faced liars. Not a thread of sincerity. Absolutely stressful to deal with and will never go back.
Hi JoannaI'm sorry you have not been pleased with the service you've received from Reeds Rains. Customer service is of paramount importance to us. Please let us know which branch it is you had dealings with?Kind regards,Reeds Rains
