TrustpilotReeds Rains at Guisborough. The best estate agent.
Reeds Rains at Guisborough are super efficient, friendly and kind. If they say they will do something you can totally rely on it being done. All their staff are great and so it is perhaps wrong to pick anyone out, but Cathy is extraordinarily efficient and very kind as well as having a charming manner and a realistic attitude to the complications that inevitably arise particularly with period houses.

TrustpilotHighly recommend
I used Reeds Rains initially to manage a rental and then to sell the property. I highly recommend them. They are professional but welcoming, nothing is ever too much. They always kept me in the loop, even during a difficult sale, going out of there way to keep me up to date with everything. Iβd like to thank Adele in particular.

TrustpilotNot impressed
Saw a house being sold by Reeds Rains, sent 2 messages via Rightmove and then an email directly. None were responded to. After a few days, decided to ring them to try & arrange a viewing. Managed to arrange the viewing. But had no explanation or apology for the lack of response. Went to the viewing, received no follow up or a request for feedback. I was just grateful we hadn't chosen them to sell our house!

GoogleJade Simpson at Reeds Rains in Consett is first rate. My partner and I view many properties as we are investors. Unlike some agents when showing potential buyers around, she is less interested in the hard sell and more concentrated on tuning in to the individual, listening to what the potential buyer is looking for and giving an informed opinion on the property in order for us to make the right decision. It was clear she had done her homework on each property we viewed and had extensive background information. What is more, she is very well informed, shares her knowledge and gives an opinion you can trust. Jade is present, gives you the time needed, a smart thinker with an interesting overview and context and importantly she listens. Outstanding. Mike and Nancy

TrustpilotI chose Reed Rains as they are an established company in my area
I chose Reed Rains as they are an established estate agent within the area and felt they were best placed for the sale of my house and it proved to be the right choice. Communication throughout was constant and informative. The lines of communication were ideal as I dealt with the same person throughout. Within two weeks I agreed a sale and cannot thank Reed Rains enough for this.

We have been dealing with Laura Jayne from the Newcastle office, she has kept us informed every step of the way through our purchase. She has answered every call and replied to every email and contacted us whenever there was news to be relayed or a question we needed answering. She has done this with complete professionalism and friendliness, and we have not even met her yet, she has been such a delight to deal with and we cannot wait to meet her to collect our keys and start a new chapter in our life She is an absolute credit to Reeds Rains.

TrustpilotHorrendous!
The response to my initial review (posted on 28th November, below) is as unsatisfactory as the service. Whatever the company claim now, I can evidence all of the concerns I listed. Further, almost three weeks after the moving date, problems persist. The fridge and freezer were not working and the tenant lost Β£130 of food. He is still without a working oven and has no access to the electric meter to obtain an initial reading. The latter is especially concerning because the hot water tank heats up constantly and then drains itself: imagine how much this is costing! Various items are broken (door handles, toilet seat) and there is black mould around the windows, very unhealthy. The tenant is facing Christmas with a microwave meal. How unacceptable is this! Happy Christmas, ReedsRains., , , , , -Dealing with this company has been a nightmare, for myself and the tenant for whom I acted as guarantor. Annabel Gilbey was the nominated negotiator but emails and phone calls to her went unanswered. On one occasion, the tenant drove several hundred miles for a viewing, leaving home at 5am but no-one turned up. A phone call would have been helpful. Sending a text when the negotiator knew he was travelling was not. We were sent repeated requests for information, money and urgent legal confirmations - none of which were necessary had the negotiatior or her colleagues acted professionally. The Branch Manager Justin Barton must bear the greatest responsibility for this. My concerns can be evidenced if this is necessary.
Lynda Β· 20 December 2024
Agent replied Β· 29 December 2024
Dear Dr Cochrane, I am sorry you have felt the need to leave a negative review, I have looked at the case and can see that the viewing you mention was moved. Having looked at this I can see that 24hrs notice was provided as we were unable to attend the viewing on the day originally booked for. We always endeavour to attend every appointment booked, however sometimes things happen that prevent this. Regards to the documents you mention, having looked I can confirm all documents requested are required so Annabel has acted correctly. Again, I am sorry you were not happy with the service provided but I do feel the team have done all that they can to make the move in as easy as possible, should you wish to get in touch directly please email me at justin.barton@reedsrains.co.uk with any further concerns.Kind Regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotNorthwich Branch - Absolutely Worthless
Northwich Branch - Absolutely WorthlessIf you are a renter, please stay away from properties that use this branch.Unhelpful, always a delay, not wanting to do the work needed and mostly ignore you.They are unwilling to even speak about maintenance issues, all they do is take the rent and ignore you. Heating issue? Fix yourselfDrainage issue? Fix yourselfIssues they said they would fix once you moved in? Fix yourselfProperty inspection? Waste of time, they never turn up and ignore youI just have no idea why itβs so difficult to get things done. Isaac in the maintenance department literally does nothing to help and would never even bother replying. Jonathan is as unhelpful and there is nothing I can do to get problems fixed.I will never rent from these again; absolutely appalling.

TrustpilotUnprofessional and unhelpful staff
Unprofessional and unhelpful staff. We loved the property we inquired about, but the listing was not transparent hence why I think such a beauty property is still not rented yet and has even been reduced. There is no parking and it is unfurnished, though the listing will not state this. When called to ask, two agents could not point out to the written bit where it says it is unfurnished or furnished, with one condescending agent hanging up the phone.

salford quays barance were the worst letting agents we have been unfortunate enough to have dealings with, if you can avoid them I suggest that you do. the move in inventory was a work of fiction with not a single fault or damage mentioned and the flat was filthy with numerous items of damage and disrepair that they are now trying to claim from us after moving out and leaving the place in better condition that we moved in Jessica was so tardy at arranging repairs that we gave up. never again would we deal with these people
