TrustpilotApartment Purchase in Eccles
We recently purchased an apartment in Eccles, via Reeds Rains, Salford Quays. For various reasons (nothing to do with Reeds Rains), the purchase took over 9 months to complete. Throughout this time Laura was extremely helpful, both in enabling us to visit the property on several occasions, and also in chasing up the seller, when it seemed that both sets of solicitors were just letting things slip. Without her help, I can't help thinking the process would have taken more than 9 months.

TrustpilotFirst home
When having a look for a first time home, me & my partner were a bit lost, trying to think of what all our outgoings, new build or old build & were I would stand with gaining a new job, We were put through to Peter & he made us so comfortable straight away and went through everything step by step and spent time making sure we would know everything before buying a house. What should we do and what shouldn’t we do. Eg what’s negative to a bank on a bank statement/ credit cards ect, He made sure we understood and how to improve this to get more lenders to accept, Peter made sure we understood that not many banks would lend as I had a career change and once my probation period is over I would have a lot more chance. We have decided to wait abit longer and get back in touch with Peter when we are ready to buy, hopefully end of summer. We didn’t feel pushed or rushed, & he advised us if we saved a bit more the price of our house can increase so we would have more choice, overall Peter was super helpful, and we can’t wait to work with him, and for him to help us buy our first home come this autumn 😊Thanks Larisse

Just a quick note to say thank you to Lauren Riding at the Bamber Bridge Branch for her help with our 2 rental properties we have with Reeds Rains. She has brought back that personal professional touch. Lauren gives 110% to help us out and fix any issues or queries we have. Great to have a "Hi Leon" at the beginning of an email and not just a blank generic email.Once again Lauren, thanks for your personal professional manner.Leon & Wendy

GoogleWe were so impressed with Reeds Rains Estate Agents. We were really pleased with the service Adam and Laura provided they were allways on hand to answer any phone calls and query's any time. They were great in getting my sale over the line.
Adam and the Reeds team, could not have been more helpful or hard working than they were. We had 3 estate agents to come round and view our property and I instantly knew the good estate agent were going to be the team to get us the most money for our property & his knowledge of the Folkestone area was incredibly reassuring.
On the day of our open house, Adam managed to get over 15 viewings and the next day we had 3 offers on the table for £20,000 more than the other 2 agents had told us we would get for it.
I honestly cannot fault the team and I’ll make sure all of my friends and family use Adam and the Reeds estate agent to sell their houses.
He and his colleagues made the whole process very straightforward and were available to help the entire time.

GoogleAdam and Stephen at Reeds Rains operate a very professional and customer focussed Estate Agency. Their knowledge of the housing market combined with their personalities, skills and experience, proved invaluable to successfully sell a number of my properties. In the recent unsettled housing market impacted by Covid, Reeds Rains remained committed and supportive throughout. Their video and marketing materials were excellent in presenting my lovely home and I have no hesitation in recommending them to other owners looking for a reliable agent. They listen to their client’s needs and go the extra mile to help achieve your sale sell promptly. Thank you Reeds Rains Folkestone, for your outstanding work and support, I wish everyone im the team all the best best for the future!

GoogleIf I could rate 0 stars I would... sending emails that took weeks to get a reply or no reply at all, fast to take money for properties but couldn't be any slower to deal with issues. Reported multiple issues multiple times including blocked pipework that flooded the property that took 3 months to get a reply on after visiting the branch! Would not recommend this company, made my living experience horrendous! I could sit here all day and post about the quite frankly useless lettings agents but I've got better things to do.
As I can't respond to the previous, I'm shocked they have no record of me existing... 223 cheriton road, the flat that needed a new roof for about 3 years that leaked masses of water every time it rained and when it was fixed the works made a mess of my internal structure cracked most the walls and this was all just left for over a year until I had enough and moved out with it still looking the same. Water damage caused all the paint to come off the walls constantly covering my entire bedroom anytime i had the window open meaning I had to strip strip the lose bits off and cover it in lining paper just to stop my bedroom becoming a mess!

From first to last, we found the welcome, customer service, professionalism and ease of communication to be first class. Just want to say a big thank you to Tallulah-Mae, Oliver, Rose and the whole team for turning a potentially stressful move into a very pleasurable one. We will be recommending your agency to family and friends. Thanks again, Karl, Irina and Misha

TrustpilotLack of concern for Tenants and poor service
I rent a property through Reeds Rains in Blackpool. We have suffered over 8 years from poor responses for jobs to be completed and the landlord informed. Most recently my bedroom window which will not close properly was reported in July during a house check.After a number of emails someone came to get a quote for the landlord 23/08/23. Since then we have continued to regularly ask when the work is being done. Yesterday I went into the office has it is now getting colder and it is becoming a bigger issue. I was told that a different company will give a quote but not when this will happen. I feel that tenants are not treated with respect or importance by this company.

GoogleReedsRains are the best estate agents in Folkestone High Street, having tried virtually all the others. Adam, on the sales side is the best sales agent I have found. He has found buyers really quickly, and he's efficient, effective in every aspect of sales, and responds straight away to emails. Above all, the whole team are all really polite and friendly. I can't praise highly enough.

TrustpilotSalford Quays branch - A pillar of support
Thanks to the wonderful sales team at the Salford Quays branch, we completed our first-time home purchase.Because of my own mistake, the purchase took longer than normal. However, our sales agent Laura had been caring and professional throughout the process. She did a good job resolving conflicts between the buyer and the seller. No matter how petty the issue is, she listens, reassures me and follows up properly. Especially as a first-time buyer, I could’t thank her enough for her effort and insights. Special mention to Jozeph and Todd, the teamwork at Salford Quays is as apparant as their service quality.In short, great communication and impressive response time to calls and emails. We are so happy with our new first home. I would definitely consider using this branch's service again in the future!

Renting a property can be daunting but Reeds Rains helped us every step of the way, nothing too much trouble. The Burnley team were excellent and so efficient. Particular thanks to Leanne and Andrea. We signed up one day and had four viewings in four days with one signing up as a tenant. Amazing! With their help we are now legal and have a happy tenant, with no worries, because Reed Rains take care of problems under their fully managed package. Many thanks guys!!

I have recently completed a power of attorney sale of my mother’s house with the Pontefract Team of Reads Rains. The whole process with the Agent was easy and straightforward, I was updated with all viewing appointments and provided with feedback after every viewing. The property sold very quickly and when I was unhappy with the lack of updates and information from my solicitor; the Team, in particular Ash, chased up my solicitor, the buyer’s solicitor and the buyer, providing me with regular updates alleviating my concerns.

TrustpilotReeds Raines Rye - Lettings Manager
What a great team - over the last few years ( 3 at least ) I’ve used Reeds Raine for my rental properties and the sale of my home. The team works really well together, giving a seamless joint between “Lettings” and “Sales”. Lydia has been a constant, contactable touch point - her assured and local knowledge is a real benefit, providing insights and contacts that have made the “landlord” role easy and hassle free. Lydia has personally formed an invaluable bridge to the Sales team. It was Lydia’s high levels of customer service that formed my decision to use the Rye Reeds Raines Team to sell my house. Stuart pulled out “all of the stops” to get the sale of my property across the line to my set deadlines - leaving me free to focus on the purchase of my new home. I recently visited my old “home town” and was given a warm welcome by Lydia in the Rye office. I would highly recommend the Lettings (Lydia) and Sales team ( Stuart). Jim Creavin

Reeds Rain York branch avoid at all costs whether a landlord or tenant. Terrible customer service, lied to on multiple occasions, they will attempt to milk fees from commissions on maintenance work the tenant hasn't requested. They are now refusing to return the tenants deposit where there is a dispute between Reeds Rain and the landlord (I.e nothing to do with the tenant). Tenants beware....!

TrustpilotStress free move
What can be one of the most stressful events in life, selling a house and moving home was made much easier with the help of the staff at Reeds Rains (Bamber Bridge)Their expertise and advice was invaluable, from getting the house valued and on the market, to organising viewings and working with the solicitors and buyers as the sale progressed. We had a sale agreed within 3 days of our house hitting the market.All the staff are so professional and friendly and were there to answer any queries and support us throughout the process. I can't thank Rebecca enough for keeping everything under control, which really made this move stress free for myself and my family.I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Reeds Rains to family and friends.

Reeds rains is the worst estate agency I have come across. I had a viewing on one of their property to rent in Eccles new road and I have send our interest on that property and they said they will let me know about landlord’s decision. I made 2 phone calls in one week period after seeing no response from the agency. They were very rude over the phone and were not approachable at all. They asked me to wait for their email to get the update. Even after more than a week, my husband rang them today on 26th September 2023 to get an update, they said the property has been given to other people. They made us to wait for their update more than a week , very rude over the phone and not given any update. I won’t recommend this agency to any of my friends.
