Great to deal with, helpful and very professional. I said to Madison Ward that if I sell the house I will be using them because from a buying point the communication, process and information provided was spot on.

I would highly recommend Bridgfords Durham. Katie was very helpful in my search for a rental property in the surrounding areas. Katie was very professional and had excellent communication skills.

I really appreciated that the staff were very approachable, especially having never sold a property before. Also the fact that they kept in contact and returned calls or emails promptly was great.

One word for the service here. WOW! I’ve been messed around in the past, but here I was made to feel like part of one big family. Harriet particularly made the whole ordeal much more enjoyable. Her phone manner and know-how were exceptional. Would highly recommend buying or selling through this branch if you want professionalism and quality.

First time to rent an apartment instead of the student accommodation in UK. Very confused at first, until I met Caitlyn Chambers. Thanks for Caitlyn Chambers who helps me a lot and I finally rent a good apartment.

I’ve had Grace baker from Bridgfords Durham Lead on my case and she’s been fantastic as an estate agent . She’s kept both parties ( seller, us and the buyers ) in the loop with response times within 24 HRs She even went out of her way to collect post from me as I live 3 HRs away from my property in durham . For all the online estate agencies out there , I have to say , the human touch of facilitation that Grace has shown has taken some of the stress out of selling our property Many thanks Dr. P. Rao

Absolutely abysmal customer service or should I say non-existant customer service, was told to pay numerous admin fees upfront and I would be sent a receipt immediately, so I did so and have yet to receive any receipt after over 3 weeks from the payment date. I have made daily phone calls sometimes 2 or 3 a day have waited over 3 weeks for a call back, whenever I call the advisor is either 'in a meeting' or 'busy' and told they will call back when they are available. Full of time wasters and money grabbers who are not bothered about their customers at all once they have your money!

this estate agency is a joke. Less than 24 hours before a viewing, which was arranged a previous week, I visited the office personally and confirmed my attendance. they still emailed me an hour before the viewing and wanted me confirm, and I did confirmed it via email too. they again called a friend of mine just before the viewing, who was helping me to get into contact with the agency while I was abroad, he confirmed the viewing as well. but 3 confirmations were not enough so they did not show up. when I managed to call them and let them know that I had been waiting for about half an hour in front of the property on a stormy weather, they decided to come to the property. yet the property was under a heavy construction, so much so that we could not even enter the rooms and there was no bathroom. this is the property whose advertisement still says “This tidy little house comes exactly as seen in the photographs”. no one bothered to tell me about this little detail (!) of renovation thing for about a week. as I said, this estate agency is a total joke, but Sarah. She was so nice and helpful.

I was left sitting outside a property not once but twice in the same day waiting for a viewing. I was told I would meet staff at the agreed time and when no one turned up I called to be told they tried to call me 3 times and sent me a text to confirm the viewing. They had not. They then agreed to reschedule the viewing a second time later that day. Once again, no one turned up. I’ve sent my complaint to head office. I could only get the details to do this by calling a different branch in Washington and having them email the details to me. A day wasted after arranging time off work. Based on the other reviews of this company it’s safe to say I will never be using them again. I feel sorry for the landlord wishing to rent their property and wish I could contact them to tell them my experience. Sadly they will probably never find anyone to rent out to through this company as they can’t even arrange viewings for prospective tenants.

Lola · 18 June 2019

Hi Sara, thank you for your review. I’m sorry to hear you’ve had difficulties viewing a property with us. As discussed with you yesterday, we followed our branch policy and attempted to contact you on three occasions to confirm your appointment. We weren’t able to leave a voicemail and so also sent you a text message. We did not hear from you, and so cancelled the viewing accordingly. You later called us to advise no one had arrived at your viewing, and advised you had no contact from us despite us confirming we had the correct telephone number for you. We agreed to meet at a later time during the day. Our colleague attended the house at the newly agreed time, but unfortunately no one arrived to meet us. Our colleague waited for over 15 minutes but had to leave. Should you wish to rearrange your viewing, please contact the office directly. Kind regards

I have been a tentant with a landlord who uses Bridgfords to manage their property for 4 years now. I have an assigned property manager, Sarah Foster who works for the Property Management Team, and she always makes sure that any repairs are completed by contractors promptly and professionally, she is always on hand to contact with regards to any issues and will go out of her way to help me with any questions or requests I may have. Would highly recommend 😀

Used them as I was re-locating to Durham I spoke with Lauren who arranged the viewings for me and then when I found she helped with all the paperwork and ensured i was kept up to date at key moments in the process. At check in Leeanne was extremely thorough and I feel happy that they are there if I need them in the future.

BEWARE!!!! This company will string you along tel you what you want to here and never follow threw with a thing. Very unprofessional communication is terrible. Also getting any issues with your property is a nightmare and finally once you’ve come to the end of your tenancy you don’t get your bond back under any circumstances. 0 star rating an absolute don’t not go with this letting agents!!!!!
