GoogleReally regret using these.
Poor service and no professionalism. Photos were dark and made rooms look small, and they did nothing to sell the house.
I rang them up to take advert down, and went with another estate agents who were brill, and E&R put their old advert back up!!
I rang them up and got through to Geoff the owner, who said they did it because they were disappointed in me that I would "give them the bullet and ditch them", and that I was a "coward" and "lilly-livered" for not telling them I wasn't happy at the beginning, and got into a very petulant and childish shouting rant. I really wish I'd recorded the phone call.
They have still refused to take the advert down, knowing that it's damaging my sale and doesn't help them at all, I really believe it's out of spite.
Please don't use these, there are a number of good estate agents out there, I can see why E&R are so small and don't have good reviews.

Unfortunately tensions have risen and we are very sorry that you are not happy. Whilst marketing your property we arranged a number of viewings which resulted in negative feedback. This vital information which we obtained for you, led you to the realisation that some improvements would be needed to effect a sale. You agreed that we would rephotograph the property once this work had been carried out. We do not charge upfront for our service but do ask that notice be given before listing the property with another agent and you signed a contract to that effect. Once you had improved the property you then listed the property elsewhere without giving notice and would not allow us to rephotograph the property in it's improved state. On this occasion we will have to agree to disagree, however we wish you all the best in the future.

GoogleWe have both sold and bought houses through Everington and Ruddle they have been amazing on every sale , they are a great team handling what can be an incredibly stressful time , keeping us informed every step of the way ,any queries and Linda is always at the end of the phone to deal with them , I have no hesitation in recommending this company and certainly would not consider using anyone else to sell my property

Thanks for those nice comments, it makes it all worthwhile to be appreciated.

Hope you are both well look forward to seeing you again soon.

GoogleAmazing communication at first and the emails were super professional. Since then we have seen, they seem to have withheld information/not been transparent before we went to get a mortgage for the property, when we raised a big issue. The lady who responds to the emails, gives short and rude responses to things, doesn’t have any decent customer service (I have worked in this industry and the communication style she has is diabolical). We were interested in buying the house however it seems the sellers may miss out on the sale , as the customer service through Everington and Ruddle is something else. We could buy a home through anyone else on the high street and not have to deal with responses like theirs - The lady’s responses scream unprofessionalism.

Very unfair remarks. You have been given a £500 engineers report for free in order to give you confidence to purchase. You also have been given a £10,000 price reduction as per the engineers report. What more do you expect ?
★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleExcellent service; very good knowledge of local area in particular. We used the company for both our purchase and sale and both proceeded smoothly. At all times we were kept informed of interest and negotiations in respect of our sale and received excellent advice. Our purchase came about through introduction from the company who knew our requirements and we are delighted and settled in our new home. Many thanks Geoff and Alistair.

GoogleAfter using Everington & Ruddle to sell our first home, they were our first port of call when we decided to sell our home this year. After getting several quotes the first time round, I found Everington to be the most competitive, professional & informative. It’s rare to find an estate agent that genuinely care about the sale/purchase of your property once you’ve signed on the dotted line, but I felt that they were with me every step of the way. They provided updates on the progress, liaising with solicitors of both parties on my behalf, and keeping in touch with us throughout the process from start to finish. Thank you!

GoogleDon’t bother call them they sell property and put you on hold with unreasonable excuses
I called them 3 weeks ago and they cancelled viewing every week and once I checked the property today it was sold
I have a viewing arranged for next Tuesday but they even didn’t bother to call me
When I called the sale advisor said it was sold yesterday not apologised and said she sent me an email which I have not received
Be careful with this agency

GoogleWonderful professional service which sold our house quickly despite a few set backs. We were always kept well informed and someone was always easy to contact and quick to respond to any queries. Their local knowledge and network of clients were invaluable and no prospective buyer who came through the door were inappropriate. Would highly recommend their services to anyone. Thankyou all.

GoogleI have sold two properties with Everington & Ruddle and each time I have found them courteous, professional and friendly at all times.

Thanks for taking the time to review our service and the chat afterwards. I am disappointed that after giving you my time for free and spending money to get to you, you give me a one star review simply because you thought your property was worth more than I did. When you sell the house I hope you adjust the review if my valuation turns out to have been the correct one.

YellTerrible Service
They are a complete nightmare! When buying a property from them they missled us and withheld important information from us to ensure they got a sale no matter of the consequences. I think the the staff are very rude and do not know how to handle customers at all - their policy seems to be tell you what you want to hear even if it is not true.

GoogleMr ruddle deliberately gives a low valuation so he can get his friends to buy your property on the cheap avoid this shark at all costs.
Peter · 16 April 2020
Agent replied · 11 June 2024
Mr Madden, the property is currently in the hands of the receivers, the locks have been changed and you no longer have a right of access, let alone the right to accuse anyone of selling it. Our company has simple been asked to value the property via a third party, also an independent valuer has been, as has another Estate Agent. The house is not even on the market and I can assure you that I would not ask a friend to buy it. Your comments are libellous and if you do not remove this post, I will consult my lawyer. Once the property is marketed, by us or any other agent, all offers received will be publicised, inviting any other interested parties to increase. This is to ensure that the best price possible is achieved, contrary to your suggestion. I am sorry that you find yourself in this position, but I can assure you that we will do our best to help.
