Reeds Rains reviews in Congleton

★★★★★ 5/5

Bought a property from Reeds Rains recently. I cannot find a fault with Emily and co. She was fantastic, working hard to ensure the chain went through. It made a difficult time, easier to cope knowing that Emily was doing what she could do with her contacts and experience. Another positive thing, is that Emily always made time to talk to us, she is friendly and approachable. I believe that is a fundamental skill in this role.

Stolen money from me

Stolen money from me. Use this firm for letting of a property and they use the tenants deposit to protect there own cost. Not mine. Deductions made from my deposit without my authority. Also done exactly the same to a friend who they also let out there property. The property was turned in to drugs factory and scumbags withheld money which they had no rights to. I will never use them again.

Stacie is AMAZING, once again she has provided an exceptional service and gone above and beyond for my house sale. Unfortunately I have moved out of Congleton now which is a shame because if there was anyone I would want to deal with a sale or purchase for me in the future it's Stacie. She is a credit to the company! (Megan & Katy were also fabulous in Stacie's absence.)

DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY!!!

DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY!!!I was a tenant in one of their properties and the landlord wouldn't complete any maintenance within the property leaving me with several different issues. I called multiple times and nothing was ever done since I moved in till i moved out. TENANTS RIGHTS! You don't have any with this company may aswell live on the streets. Horrible customer service, Horrible people, Take advantage of your being young. Can't even complain as its so difficult to find a complaints procedure.

The team were very friendly and efficient Simon Wilson was brilliant from start to finish he made everything so easy for me and kept me informed throughout the sale as this was a family home of 57years and he was very respectful of this and he was so mannerly and friendly I will definitely use Reeds Rains again.

We have just gone through, what was for us, a very difficult house sale and purchase. All the staff we dealt with at Reeds Rains, Congleton, were great, but Caroline was especially attentive and held our hands throughout. She did go over and above the call of duty, as it were, keeping us updated and informed of all the twists and turns of this most tortuous transaction. We would have no hesitation in recommending Reeds Rains, Congleton branch, to anyone thinking of putting their house on the market.

Having bought a property through Reeds Rains my point of contact was Caroline. She was helpful throughout the whole process and responded quickly to all questions and requests. Highly recommended

Criminal organisation

Criminal organisation. Also operate at "Your Move". As a landlord I received fraudulent invoices, months of failure to respond to calls and emails. They turns out they lost the keys and the tenancy agreement. End of contract 29th Sept. Still they haven't shared any paperwork and are still withholding funds in November. Lots of promises from David Tomlinson, not one fulfilled. Avoid.Update: now December, despite the response on here, no reach out or resolution.

I’m a photographer that works for numerous estate agents across Staffordshire and Cheshire. Tim and the team at Reeds Rains Congleton do a fabulous job and seem to sell everything that I photograph in an efficient, friendly and professional manner. Nothing is ever too much trouble and they are always quick to answer messages or the phone when needed.

Terrible property managers

I hir d reeds and rains to manage a dental property and oversee the letting. It has been a nightmare!The tenant severe the notice period whicj they missed for two months and only noticed when the rent stopped coming in. Now we are late at listing the property for rent by two months and loosing rental income..Moreover, R&R's compliance department has been chasing the tenant for defaulting even when he vacated the property after providing appropriate notice.It has been a terrible experience both for me the owner and the tenants

I’ve moved a few times in recent years and have to say that Emily and the team in Congleton have been by far the best. The communication throughout the whole process was superb and nothing was too much trouble. I felt that they worked with me to achieve a great price for my home and then ensured the process through to completion was as just as smooth. Thank you again and I would definitely recommend Reeds Rains.

I highly recommend Reeds Rains for selling a property

Reeds Rains were friendly yet professional throughout the process of selling my house. They stepped in and helped, when the solicitors were making a stressful situation even more stressful, and sorted things out so that I did manage to exchange and complete on the sale. I'm pretty sure that without Madeline and the rest of the team in the Gosforth office, I would still be trying to exchange contracts and could have easily lost the sale. Thank you all so much

Exceptional service provided by the team. Although there were issues with the purchase (solicitors), these were chased up multiple times and quickly. They were always available to answer any questions (no matter how stupid) and could not have done any more. A special mention to Katy and Stacie who kept the purchase together and went above and beyond the cause in resolving issues. Could not recommend them enough.

Inhabitable

As soon as you’ve paid your deposit and started paying rent, you won’t get much communication from them. It is basically Impossible to get any maintenance work done - we were left with leaks, mould, lights not working, carpet ripping up, drafts and more. It takes almost a year to get someone to come and look at the problems, then nothing is done despite chasing every day. You ring and email daily but get no response.Glad to be out of there. We were once without a working boiler for over 2 weeks in December. It took me threatening legal action for them to follow some sort of protocol. Even then we were passed around different people who didn’t seem to know how to handle the problem. It gets to the point where it is just unsafe. And after all that, the landlord took the whole deposit to buy a new front door which was not like for like. The property had a lot of potential but it’s not well managed at all.

If I could review this estate agents lower I would. I initially signed for a property in 2021 with a partner - they messed us around for weeks at a time and made the moving in process as stressful as possible which lead to them finally releasing the keys after office hours despite having a moving van waiting all day. Immediately after moving in we had to make a formal complaint due to having to wait over 8 weeks for acknowledgement on maintenance issues. Not something you want straight after moving into a property? Not to mention later going 3 days without heating or hot water in the height of winter.They shut us up by offering to pay compensation of £150 for the inconvenience.However, later in the tenancy the other tenant moved out leaving me, a single young woman, living alone. The landlord, an older gentleman, turned up to the property without notice several times. On one occasion, I granted access to the property for him to review some damp problems, whereby he made multiple inappropriate comments about how my tattoos would look better without my clothes on, and that I was safe going upstairs alone with him. A few days after this, he knocked on the door at circa 7pm at night asking me to go for drinks with him.Being a woman living alone, knowing that this man is aware of this and is in a position of power, I didn't speak out until the end of the tenancy.This landlord then decided to claim over £700 of damages from myself. Luckily, we used the Zero Deposit Guarantee scheme and so they disputed this on my behalf and over £500 of this claim was rejected. Leaving me to pay just under £185 which was settled at the end of 2023.However, over a year after the end of the tenancy, Reeds Rains has just contacted me stating that I owe them £22. A reminder this was paid in 2023, the year that the tenancy ended.I would never ever recommend anybody to use this estate agents, it's a law suit waiting to happen and they clearly don't care about the safety of their tenants from landlords taking advantage of their position nor do they communicate with each other at all and prefer to harass previous tenants.

After having Reeds Rains Congleton recommended to us, we have just sold and bought a property through Reeds Rains Congleton and the level of service we received off them was outstanding. We didn't have the smoothest of sale/purchase however Stacie and Emily were always so professional, knowledgable and patient, especially when listening to me ranting! We could not have picked a better estate agent and I highly recommend Reeds Rains Congleton to anyone.

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. Worst agent in the North East

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. We recently bought a house and these people were unfortunately the acting agent. The vendor wasn't happy with them and neither were we. What a rip -off. Talk about giving the industry a bad name. Charged us £60 to carry out an I.D. check when we were stood in their office with our official documents. No, we can't take a copy, you have to pay a fee and use our app!! So we paid under duress as we wanted the property. The app simply asked us to upload the documents. As if that made any difference as opposed to them photocopying or scanning them themselves. During the next six to eight weeks of the process, we never had one single phone call from them giving us any update. When we rang them close to completing on the purchase we were told they would ring us. They didn't!! I have dealt with other agents as an investor and for private purchases. These people are pathetic and a disgrace to the industry. Don't touch them with a bargepole. Useless!!

Carol 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.

Stacie managed the purchase of our property and provided us with a really excellent service. From the start, when we registered an interest in the property through to completion, Stacie went above and beyond to make sure the process went as smoothly and as stress-free as possible. The other members of the team were also very helpful and supportive. Many thanks! Hannah & MartinPositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
