Do not sign up with this agency!!!! Response for any issues you have inside house will be in years . I have been in a house through them for almost 3 years . In my first year my boiler broke it took them to come and fix it 6 months . Later same year , my electric shower broke , it took them weeks to come and fix it . If you email the agency and ask for help they will not do anything they will ask you to fill in a form on their maintenance website and go from there and wait weeks . NOW my meter broke I have no heat inside house , landlord doesn’t fo anything to fix it , it has been days since I am staying in cold I have emailed the agency telling them everything and I have been ignored and I am still ! I have complained about my issues with neighbours fighting all the time not being able to sleep , police is always on that street because of how bad they are !! It ‘rains’ inside house because of landlord not doing anything !! I have called the agency and raised this issue and they have said they will send a plumber to sort this out and nobody turned up ! By leaving this here I hope to get the attention of this agency and I will take this matter further !!

I dealt with Stevie Hook on a commercial sale which was bought through my company. Stevie was professional, polite, a great negotiator and most important for me she kept me informed throughout the purchase. No complaints from me and would definitely recommend. Thanks Stevie

Absolutely amazing service from start to finish. Vicki who came to my house to give me the valuation of my property was very professional and explained everything clearly then Natalie from the office could not be any more helpful. I had spoken to a few other members of staff when I came into branch who went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this estate agents and its worth paying that little bit more to get the job done!

I was in search of my very first rental property but I was living abroad which meant I had to send a third party to view flats for me. After a few failed attempts at finding my 'perfect' home through private landlords I found a lovely little flat advertised by Farrell Hayworth. A couple of days later my parents had arranged a viewing which I attended through Skype. We all instantly fell in love with the flat, it was perfect for my needs and Russell was very accommodating to my large and unusual viewing party, patiently answering questions being fired at him from 3 generations of Doyles. From that moment I knew that I wanted to make my home in the property but as I was abroad at the time it was going to be difficult. Russell worked long and hard to find the way to make it happen for me and that hard work paid off. After 1 week of being back in the U.K. I got the keys to my beautiful new home, I am now settled in and I am happier than I ever thought I could be. My landlords are as wonderful as Russell said they were and my flat is perfect. Russell and his colleagues at Farrell Hayworth went above and beyond to help me, they could have taken an easier tenant for the flat but they decided to work extra hard to get me my dream. I would recommend Farrell Hayworth to anybody who wishes to receive A highly professional service by wonderfully down to earth people. A massive thank you to all who were involved!

Chose these estate agents because they're local and established, but extremely disappointed with the lack of customer service. We don't get updates on our house sale, feedback is minimal when we ask for it and we are fobbed off with 'I'll chase it next week' all the time. We are basically left in limbo with no information with regards to what is going on. When we ask for info we are told they will look into things in another week, so the cycle continues. Delay. Delay. Delay. We'll be glad when it's all done with so our stress levels can return to normal. We will never use them again. We regret choosing them as our estate agent. We would never recommend them. Update 1: I was contacted by the branch manager about my one star review and was asked if I'd change it. I said if he could get things moving and get me some info I might do. He didn't respond to me so I didn't amend my rating. Update 2. After finally completing and moving house we....heard absolutely nothing from Farrell Heyworth. No phone call or email. Nothing. The estate agent of the house we were buying kept us informed all morning and even gave us a card and a bottle of fizz, but our own estate agent Farrell Heyworth didn't even speak to us. It's like we didn't exist. Update 3. After completion this estate agent have been trying to say we haven't paid them the right amount of money. We paid them via our solicitor exactly what it says on the cost breakdown they provided. What an absolute joke. If you need a recommendation for a good estate agent try...ANY OTHER ONE JUST NOT THESE. Just check they will acknowledge your sale and that they know how much to charge you first!

I tried to book a viewing for a property but they first told me i need to do an online viewing and see if we like the property. The online viewing comprised of a shoddy video made by amateurs and i would not really call it a viewing. Anyway, we were still interested in the property so i called the agent and asked if we could book a traditional viewing. I am a cash buyer and i was told that i cant view the property without showing proof that i have the cash ready. What a ridiculous notion!!! i have viewed several properties recently with other agents and not one has asked me for proof of funds, so why is Farrell Heyworth being so awkward. Moreover, why would i view a property if i know i cant afford it. Its simple maths, i either have the cash or i do not, its not like a mortgage where there is a chance it may be rejected. Absolute shocking service from these people and i would advise everyone to stay well away. In this difficult climate, they are making things tougher for buyers and i cannot believe they are turning potential buyers down. STAY WELL AWAY!!! NEW REVIEW: I had my second contact with this estate agent 2 weeks ago. i left an enquiry to purchase a flat and was told they will contact me to arrange a viewing. 2 weeks later i still didnt receive a call or email to arrange the viewing so i called them today. They told me that there was a block viewing last week and the property has now been sold. What a joke!. Nobody bothered to call me to view the property and now the seller was forced to accept an offer which was way lower than ours because he didnt even know we wanted to make an offer. Customer service at this company is non existent. Worst experience ive had with a estate agent and second time this has happened with them. So frustrating!NegativeQuality, Professionalism, Value

Utterly terrible! I would agree with the other one-star reviews on here. One review states that they would not recommend this agency to my worst enemy! Wholeheartedly agree!! The all-white agency is full of awkward, problem-identifiers who aren't very knowledgeable of the local market and seem deliberately unhelpful. Chris Plumpton, the branch head, is laughable as the head of the office. He's also unresponsive and difficult, as are his very unhelpful team, including Blake. Not surprised if this branch doesn't close down soon.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We used the services of Farrell Heyworth mortgage advisor Anil Parmar who was absolutely brilliant for us as first time buyers, holding our hand as we negotiated the process. He was extremely responsive and made sure he noted all our important dates so he could check in regularly to ensure things stayed on track. We always felt his advice about mortgages and insurances was honest and tailored to our needs, while giving us plenty of time to think things through and come back with questions. He responds rapidly and is genuinely friendly in his communication. We would highly recommend him and will be back in the future.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Absolutely shocking company, I would not advise anyone to use them. What the person that come out to value says is not how they work at all. We had to do all the chasing up and they are just bad at communicating with client. They had property 4 weeks and one inappropriate viewing later we terminated our association with them. Been with new company 10 days and had 2 viewings and a few more booked In this weekend.

I can't understand why they are demanding details of our finances before we even view a property - any property!! They claim it's a Covid precaution - yet it gives them an unfair amount of information to enable them to push you to higher levels of offer - very very unethical..... Jeremy Collins, I can't reply to your response so I've edited my review to address your points. You say: 'Unfortunately we still receive many requests to view properties from individuals who have no intentioned of buying....' So, you have just admitted that you are using a medical situation to screen finances? And it is false to say that agents require proof of funds at the point of offer - this is usually required once an offer is accepted. You also do not offer any reassurance (unequivocal committment) that you do not pass on details of a viewer's finances to your customer so they can misuse that information. This is all highly unethical and I think the ICO would be interested in your inappropriate gathering of financial information (in pretence that this relates to health in some way) and your potential misuse of this, and lack of guarantees around the use to which it will be put.

Absolutely shocking service from this so called estate agency, we made an offer on a property (asking price) and was told the offer was accepted and the vendor was taking it off the market, once the estate agent knew we were not using them to sell our property we were told another offer had been made, obviously it was not taken off the market, and we could make a higher offer, they then denied their claims of taking it off the market, would not use these people again for buying or selling, avoid them at all costs

Very unpleasant experience with anticipated move in being cancelled at last minute without us being kept informed. However subsequent to this Jonathon has been very helpful in finding us a replacement flat.

I really commend Jonathan Grundy for the amazing job he did. He helped my family to secure a lease within three days of initial contact, the same property we were unable to secure with a different agency. He interceded for us with the landlord and followed it up personally and kept updating us on progress. Jonathan Grundy and Farrell Hayworth were really amazing. Thanks.
