It was/is stressful and it took a long time to sell just over 20 weeks but it appears lots of properties took a very long time due to the way the market was/is. But the staff at Reeds Rains were so helpful always. I feel I can call them anytime and ask as many questions as needed . Thank you To stuart the manager . Hanna Lydia and Kerry Thank you all so very much

GoogleThe service we received from Adam and the others in the team was very professional throughout. They sold the house very quickly and kept us in the loop throughtout the process. All communication was quick, and professional, but friendly. I would recommend them to others and will go back if I ever sell/buy another house.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

TrustpilotExcellent Service with one Criticism
Still at the early stages of the process but I cannot fault the attention and courtesy shown by all staff that I have seen and spoken to. If there is any criticism I can make it would be the fixed price fee of the agent. If I could explain further, I wanted to handle all viewings but there was no reduction of the fee offered knowing that the cost to them for handling the viewing would incur agent’s time and fuel which would be a saving to them.

TrustpilotNot quite a good experience
We rented through this agency, and even though some of the employees are nice, there are some that are very bad-mannered also.The keys were kept even though the landlord gave the okay 5 hours ahead. The keys were not handed at the property but at the agency.The landlord requested for the agency to submit meeters and a contract, but neither was handed in.In the end, the landlord cut the collaboration for the property off too.

I recently dealt with the Morley Branch for my rental and they were brilliant. Niamh was especially helpful, she was there for me throughout the whole process. She’s an asset to the team and an absolute pleasure to deal with. Thank you so much!!

TrustpilotCancelled utilities
Our landlord decided to change from Reeds Rains to a local agent. Reeds managed to mistakenly inform the utility companies that we had moved out so they tried to cancel our accounts. We were nearly left with no electricity or water. Utterly unapologetic when asked about it. They have been useless in the 10 years we’ve been renting through them, thank goodness our landlord is great.

TrustpilotAvoid this bunch at all costs
Avoid this bunch at all costs. They will cheat you out of your hard earned money. They miserably fail to live up to any responsibility even when provided with evidence that proves without doubt their incompetence. Lacking a moral and ethical compass. A very rotten apple. I only apologise for misleading you with 1 star but that was the "entry fee" for posting an honest review.

I rented a property for 3 years with Reeds Rains. Amber was the member of staff that I dealt with from the beginning. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. So polite, friendly and helped us with any issue that arose. I would happily rent using this agency again thanks to Amber.

TrustpilotVery professional and allowed me to view a property at my convenience!
I arranged a viewing at quite short notice but they were very happy to let me view a property at a time to suit me.After my first offer being rejected, my second offer was accepted and any further viewing on the property were stopped. The whole process so far has been very professional.

TrustpilotUnprofessional
Offered full asking, cash offer for a house in Blackpool (south shore) on the first day of listing, July2021.They sold it to someone else, without further communication. They had my email and home address, neither of which used to make contact.They completely ignored my request for a viewing via Rightmove.Give careful consideration before utilising the services of reeds rains.Buyer and seller beware!
Hello John,I'm sorry you have not been pleased with the service you've received from Reeds Rains. We attempted to contact you on multiple occasions to discuss your offer and organise a viewing and we did not hear back from you. We are very sorry we were not able to help on this occasion and wish you the best of luck with your property hunt.Kind regards,Reeds Rains

GoogleReeds Rains were agents for the people we were buying from and they worked really hard to keep everything on track and get the deal over the line. Always available on the phone, quick replies to emails, friendly and professional, great communications all round.

TrustpilotExceptionally good
Very good indeed. A close focus on what the customer wants. All office staff kind and helpful. All RR agents who saw our house loved it and that genuine positivity made a difference. The pricing discussions were sensible and the brochure/Rightmove entry looked really good. Skilled & experienced guidance in the final sale negotiations was sharp.

They are liars and time wasters I put my offer in asked if the property was freehold they assured me it was and it was leasehold and lead me along for 3 month dont believe them they wasted my money and time so make things easy look find trustworthy estate agents the branch I delt with was birmingham yadley branch crap service and misleading agents
Hello, I'm sorry that you feel the service you received was not up to our usual high standard as we do pride ourselves on good customer service. With regards to the detail on the property being bought, the property is Freehold as stated at the beginning of the sale, however part way through the sale the solicitors found that there was also a leasehold title running concurrently on the property (dual title), which even the owner was unaware of. At your solicitors request the owners agreed to get the two titles merged but unfortunately the delays in being able to get this done obviously did not tie in with the time frames you required. I am sorry that you were unable to hang on until the merging of the titles was complete and that you feel dissatisfied with the service you received.Kind regards,Reeds Rains Yardley

TrustpilotProper job!
Everyone I dealt with at Reeds Rains just knew their job really well and got on with it. Communication with me and between the RR team was clear and prompt and I always felt like I knew what was happening. Thanks!
Hi Mike,We understand your frustration with the deposit process and the deductions made. We strive to ensure fair and transparent practices for all our tenants. We would like to look into this further for you, you will receive a request for more information from Trustpilot.Regards,Reeds Rains

Reeds Rains in St Helens was brilliant. They were a delight to work with, and very professional. Sold our house within a week for 10k over the asking price. The other agent we saw suggested listing it at £30k less than we got for it!
