Excellent service

When you’re are trying to sell your property in a challenging market it’s vital to have an Agent who has belief and optimism about the process ahead. Reeds Raines secured a potential buyer ahead of schedule and I’m truly grateful for their excellent service.

Great experience

Communication - I was given a call to set up a house viewing, all details spot on. Following the viewing, I was given a follow up call by Phil in the Burnley branch for feedback and let me know the outcome of the application. He was very kind and during the viewing gave a lot of great information about the property, even noting my son's polite behaviour! He allowed us to browse the property without 'hovering'.

What a lovely bunch they are! Helpful and knowledgable and always there to answer your questions.It’s a stressful time but I’m glad and reassured they are just that call away. With their help hopefully we will be moving into our new home soon.

Waste of Time

I used Reeds Rains to list my property, they were all singing and dancing with positivity but once I’d paid for ‘professional’ photography, I seemed to be forgotten about. (Photographer was rude too!) I didn’t get any viewings so was constantly chasing the office for updates. I had a friend put in an enquiry and they didn’t contact him for 10 days!!!!! Never answer their phones or emails. Was on the market for 4 months before I switched to another agency and the house was sold within a month. Staff clearly don’t care about the sale, more like they are incentivised to get the listing.

Quality Agents

Great communication before and after sale of our property. Great marketing and results in finding buyers. Going beyond the norm of what one expects of Estate Agents

Useless

Do not use these incompetent con artists.Had our apartment ruined by a serious leak from the apartment they manage above us. After the building's management company sent out a plumber to turn off the water to stop the leak, Trudy in the Ballyhackamore branch told their tennant to just turn the water back on again. That was on Saturday morning, on Monday morning the building's management company plumber came back to repair the serious leak and was told to stop by the incompetent Trudy. Several hours, and the need to complain multiple times, later, as well as more buckets full of leaked water collected, finally the completely incompetent Trudy at the Ballyhackamore branch managed to get a plumber to come out and fix the leak. Now after many failed attempts to get the incompetent Trudy to provide their insurers details I have come to the conclusion that the only option is to take legal action against them to force them to give me the details of their insurers so that I can have my seriously damaged property repaired.If you let these incompetent imbeciles do anything for you in any capacity, be warned, you will end up in court facing significant costs just because of their gross stupidity and incompetence.

From the start of my selling/purchase process Reeds Rains have been professional, efficient and courteous throughout. The transactions are on-going and if I have a query they always answer any points I need to raise.

Cannot fault the service Fantastic.

I have been dealing mostly with Dean the Branch Manager at Hazel Grove and he has been super, explaining everything and keeping me updated on a regular basis. He is very approachable and is making our experience a seemless one. Thank you Dean !

Deeply disappointing service

Sadly, not a great experience with Reeds Rains Hebden Bridge. TL:dr, don't use them, better to do it yourself which is pretty much what I did. I initially dealt with a manager who was great, but unexpectedly (to me at least) left just as my house was about to go on the market. Then followed 3 weeks of an incomplete and incorrect listing on their site and Rightmove. There were endless corrections and back and forth from me, to no avail. Then a new manager started and this was finally corrected.The second viewers were the ones who ended up purchasing the house and are lovely, lovely people. Who at their own admission were clueless as to the process. I was told by Reeds Rains that they were cash buyers - they were mortgaging their own home and using the cash to buy mine. I understood this to mean that Reeds Rains had confirmed they had the cash in their account since they repeatedly told me they were cash buyers.They didn't. Reeds Rains only went so far as to prove that the buyers had mortgage approval, no more. I could get mortgage approval tomorrow and it would be meaningless. This resulted in 3 months down the road when it came time to exchange contracts, the buyers could not as they did not have the deposit money - nobody had thought to check this. They also didn't have the mortgage....and again, nobody had checked. An incredibly stressful 3 weeks followed while they actually secured their mortgage, not able to exchange contracts with me so I had absolutely no security at all. This should have all been confirmed before I accepted the offer - and I foolishly believed the correct due diligence had been done. All that had been done was a conversation with the buyers mortgage broker ('well, he had known them 20 years and vouched for them' - really???) and a confirmation of the mortgage offer. I literally chased this every step of the way myself - hence my point about do it yourself!

Dissapointing & Unhelpful

Excellent when you are looking to rent a property that they are representing as agents, but awful when you vacate.No responses to any emails and they hold onto your deposit long after the landlord has agreed to release it. Covid is their excuse not their real reason.It seems they are just playing for time.Eager to get your deposit upfront but not so keen to return it.Extremely unprofessional and very frustrating.Perhaps they need to employ more staff to be able to offer the level of service required.

Disappointed

There was a lack of communication from the branch to our solicitor. Meaning we had to contact the branch on several occasions to get important information.

I have recently sold my house with…Reeds Rains

I have recently sold my house with Reeds Rains of Wakefield in West Yorkshire. They provided a brilliant service. The head of sales Janet Higgins has been an absolute diamond throughout the process, going above and beyond what was required. Very pleased with them.

Great for first time buyers

Our real estate agent was Neil Price from the Coventry branch. As first time buyers, we had no idea where to even start but we found the help and advice from Neil essential in starting our journey. Throughout the buying process, communication was great as we were constantly kept up to date - with any questions we had answered swiftly. Even after moving into the property, he assisted us with a few queries we had about the property and got back to us the same day, sorting the questions we had. Thank you so much to Neil - we can’t wait to start making this house our forever home.

We bought a house while overseas

We bought a house while overseas, which is not easy. ReedsRains first ignored our email, we had to ask head office to make them respond. But once we got the offer in, they were great. When our solicitor messed up, causing delays, both Sue and Andrea kept up the pressure. They also helped fix a question brought up by the Search. Definitely a godsend. Recommended.

***KEEP AWAY***

***KEEP AWAY***We were treated like young dumb first time buyers and constantly lied to by the sellers and estate agents. Property was advertised as FREEHOLD, we asked the sellers about the property status, they said the property was FREEHOLD, the paperwork was in the post. During the solicitors searches, it came to light that the property was in fact LEASEHOLD.Reeds Rains asked how we found out that the property was LEASEHOLD and we explained through the solicitors, to which estate agents said "but yeah its a long LEASEHOLD " - so they already knew and were hiding and MIS-SELLING!

Positive result with some bumps in road

Firstly, Read Rains sold the property which is the primary objective. The commission price was competitive so we have a positive result. The market has been very slow this year so I appreciate why it took longer than wanted and we had to reduce the initial asking price significantly. The staff are always polite and courteous.On advice from Read Rains we engaged with their online auction service. This was a waste of time. Communication with the auctioneers was almost non-existent and no offers were made at any price.We reverted to traditional sales approach. There was confusion regarding an initial offer which never materialised but eventually we secured a sale with a different buyer.The solicitors service which partners with them on a no sale no fee basis, engaged with us but after being engaged, they informed that they were not able to cover our purchase property. This also wasted some time.Lastly, I felt that it was always me pushing for updates and progress and Reads Rains reacting. Other agents I have used are more proactive. This could have been somewhat due to a turnover of staff at the particular branch but such things are part of business and should be managed.

Positive and enthusiastic approach

When he came to the initial assessment of my house, Jeremy was very positive and enthusiastic. He also listened to what I had to say. He was on the buyers' case and got a result. When I go into the office he is very welcoming.
