TrustpilotReeds Raids in Preston..
Reeds Raids in Preston... Absolutely awful. DO NOT USE. Never told us about any of our viewings. Organised an open house and turned up 15 minutes late with various different viewers waiting on the doorstep. Turned up late on several Other occasions and after we sold the house did not contact us once. On the day of completion when they were suppose to meet the buyers with the keys they never called us once and we had to hand over the keys ourselves.

Thank you Maria Hammill from the Rothwell branch. You found my daughter an amazing property to rent and now Maria is on the search for us an amazing property to buy. I really can't thank you enough for all your hard work, always being there and also ready to help at the drop of a hat.

TrustpilotFed up of being ignored
Fed up of being constantly ignored by this company. Have emailed them directly, through their website, through RightMove, called them, left voicemails and left my contact details with an employee where I was promised a call back. So far I've not been contacted (not even a courtesy "we're sorry it's taking so long but we'll get back to you") and have lost hope I'll be able to successfully view the property I want.If this is what they're like to deal with trying to arrange a viewing for a property, I dread to think how inefficient they'd be to complete the purchase.

Good morning Matt, I am sorry to hear of the problems you have experienced communicating with my office. My team have been extremely busy as the housing market returns to full activity following the easing of lock down restrictions. Whilst we are pleased with these activity levels it has unfortunately meant that we have struggled to respond to some inquiries as promptly as we would like. As you are aware I have contacted you this morning and explained the above in more detail. Thank you for your understanding and hopefully we can assist you to find your next home. Kind regards,Cairn Morrison - Branch Manager - Reeds rains Morley.

TrustpilotSalford Quays - Lies and so unhelpful
Simply wanted to view a 1-bed apartment in the Salford Quays area. Initially arranged well enough, then the appointment was cancelled by the agent (agent said the property was having work done) but when I emailed back he had in truth simply taken the day off and clearly cancelled his appointments to facilitate this. Re booked for a later date and time (chosen by the agent who subsequently wouldn't even be flexible enough to move this by 30 mins as it conflicted with another appointment I had. Then just before the 2nd appointment he advised me by email that someone else had already taken the property so the 2nd appointment never even happened. How someone else let the apartment when the workmen were apparently there preventing viewings remains a mystery?Finally to add insult to injury the same apartment is (a full week later now) still advertised on both Right Move and their own website as still being currently not let! God help the poor landlord depending on getting this rented out in the current market conditions waiting for these people to be bothered to actually show the place to someone...appalling!

TrustpilotBefore moving with this agency
Before moving with this agency, we lived in 3 other flats. We never had problems with the other landlords, but this people is something out of this world. First of all I would like to clarify that they never played fair with us: in the visit to the house I told to the agent that I really wanted to rent the property, I even said to her to sign in the moment of the visit, but she told me that it was ok, that they were going to keep the property for me and that I could do the paperwork the next day. Next day, when I called her, she told me that the landlord accepted another offer. I think that was just a way to make me say that I was able to pay 6 months in a row. And so, the landlord accepted my offer.We moved to their property in February. When we moved there, the storage heaters were not working. At this point, I want to highlight that we moved with a 40 days baby. When you pay 6100 GBP before moving to a house, you expect a service. For 20 days, in February, with a baby, we lived without heaters. They just kept saying that maybe I didn´t know how to turn it on. I had to write them in a non friendly way to get a handyman in the house fixing it. And he had to fix it, because it was damaged.They came 2 or 3 times to visit the house to check everything was right. As in the contract, if the agent would have realized that something had to be repaired or cleaned, or misplaced, she had to aware us in order to do something about it.Well, in all the visits, she came to the house, checked it in 2 minutes, and said: everything is ok. We even got emails after each visit saying everything was ok.When we moved out, they sent us a email saying that the house needed a deep clean, 7 new bulbs (we stayed there for 10 months), and apart from the deep clean, they wanted to charge us for cleaning the door of the microwave (it just have a water vapour spoil in the door), for cleaning the door of a dishwasher that we never turned on, and they wanted to charge us for some mould and dump. Around 400 GBP for this. They even wanted to charge us to buy new curtains because of the damp , when curtains were made of a material 100% washable.The pictures of the original inventory had nothing to do with the inventory they did at the end of the rental. The first one, was a bit blurry, and the pictures of it were taken from a distance of everything. The pictures of the inventory they did when we moved out... What a crime. They did pictures with zoom of every single centimeter of the house, they moved furniture that weight around 50kg to do pictures of the floor below it. They even did a picture of the inside of a bin that it was not in the original inventory!So, they wanted to deduct 638GBP from our deposit, (we couldn´t get a VAT invoice, and the receipt they sent us was clearly suspicious: in the receipt one of the concepts was "Towel needs to be removed from kitchen floor 1 £4.00" Towel that we left there to protect the wooden floor from the water that could fall from the non-no-frost fridge). But I submitted a case through Mydeposit, and mydeposit has just given 340 GBP to them. If you are living in a Reeds Rains´s property, be aware. Keep this in mind. If you are not living in a Reeds Rains property, avoid them.The reviews with 5 stars are because before you move in their properties, a Barbie girl, ask you for the 5 stars review.

Hello Rafael, I am very sorry you have been disappointed by the service you have received from our Salford Quays office. From our records, I believe that maintenance issues during your tenancy were acted upon promptly. I also dispute that the check out process was in any way an attempt to withhold your deposit monies unfairly.Please could you call me on 0161 236 9088 or email me at ian.jordan@reedsrains.co.uk and I will fully investigate the matter for you.

TrustpilotAPPALLING SERVICE!
If I could have given this Company no stars I would have done so.Made an offer on a property several weeks ago and then made several calls to find out what was the outcome as no one came back to me. Initially blamed me for not providing proof of mortgage acceptance despite the fact I had the majority of funds in cash and informed the Agent that if there were to be a problem, a family member would cover the shortfall, so a cash buyer in every sense of the word. Also, I previously worked in a local Estate Agent and it is not normal for people to make offers against properties they can’t afford. Eventually told there were several family members involved and the situation was ‘complicated’. Made a final call into the offices on the 22nd to find out if there was any progress to be told matters were still ongoing.Last week I was sent an email from RR with a link for another property, the link was broken so I went onto their website to search for the property. Whilst scrolling through, how shocked was I to see ‘sale agreed’ against the property on which I made the offer. I received no notification either verbally or written of this at all and I was therefore never given an opportunity to increase my offer. I phoned the offices to advise of this situation and was told I was called on the 22nd when in fact as previously stated, it was I that contacted them! I had Vodafone search my account and they indeed confirmed no call was made by RR.Not only is this extremely poor management, it is also my understanding it is illegal to not be kept informed.I feel very sorry for the vendor as I would have offered full asking price and possibly slightly more had I have been given the opportunity, something sadly, they will never be aware of.

I decided to go through RR langworthy rd Salford branch to let my 2 bed GF flat. This flat was my parents abode before they passed away, so it was a little emotional for me to be putting strangers in the place.RR put the first two people that came along in it, and retrospectively, the vetting/reference process was none existent. After 20 months of what can only be described as 'piggery' in my property, I was left with £3400 of damage to put right. The accumulated filth over the period of time should have been picked up on their routine visits. It was not. What I got from RR was - you have just been unlucky. These things happen. You have to expect some damage. This experience was very distasteful due to the emotional side of things. Do not touch RR with a bargepole.

TrustpilotStay away
We have rented a house through Reeds Rains for 2.5 years now, never had any major problems, rent inspections every 3 months, but they always manage to find an issue; carpets need cleaning, nick in Lino where dishwasher has slotted in, they’ve even gone as far as requesting us to clean the drive way, but I believe this to be the bloke that owns the house. I’m very particular my home so I was quite upset to learn that I had been judged like this! We have already come to terms with the fact that we are unlikely to receive our bond back, even though there are no major issues with the house.We have only had two cause for concern issues, the second one arising today. In the summer, no one was at home for the gas man who coincidentally knew the landlord (not Reeds Rains), personally, so he came with a spare key and let him in while no one was at home! It was actually my day off and the gas man was 30 mins earlier than expected, I had the shock of my life when I returned home. Today, I got a text from my bank to say that I was in my overdraft! I thought bloody hell, we’re not even in January yet, how did this happen?! Reeds Rains had taken two lots of rent direct debits totalling over £1500! I rang their accounts team who fobbed me off and told me it was my banks issue! After twoing and frowing, Halifax have managed to claw back one of the direct debits, but it will take 24-48 hours to show in my account. Reeds Rains customer service is diabolical!**edit as can’t reply to comment - Haxby Branch

TrustpilotNot the best experience with them
Recently booked a house viewing with them, never received any confirmation of the viewing and they never sent me the full address so I had to call up on the day to get the details and to confirm. Once we arrived the agent didn’t introduce himself at all, and just didn’t seem like he wanted to be there, he sounded very bored. He didn’t know any information about the property and couldn’t answer any questions that we had. He didn’t sell it at all, I’d be fuming if he was selling my home! Wouldn’t want to use them again

Reeds Rains Eastwood...seriously this must be the best estate agent in Nottinghamshire.Nothing was too much trouble for them.Led by their wonderful manager Matt all of his staff were helpful,friendly,polite and efficient. Due to their efficiency my mum’s property was sold on the first day as they had notified a couple who came to view it at once and snapped it up as realistically priced(£20,000 more than another estate agent who had also priced it).They dealt with everyone of my queries in their usual quick and meticulous manner.The manager Matt led by example and along this journey offered his help every step of the way and reiterated this every time I phoned or called into the office.This estate agent was recommended by a friend of mine and I’m so glad I went with them as they made what could be a very stressful experience into a very pleasant one. I cannot sing their praises highly enough and cannot understand the bad reviews given to them as I am recommending them to all my friends who want to sell their property.
