The lovely Jenna at Ryder & Dutton Heywood. I cannot praise her enough. Her communication was excellent, she made the whole process so easy for me. I am neurodiverse and struggle with paperwork and long processes. Jenna helped me through each stage, clarifying info from solicitors, passing messages through the chain and remaining positive. I had a change of circumstance 2 weeks before completion meaning we had to start again but everyone pulled together to get me to complete on time. The team are kind and dedicated, definitely experts in their field. Thanks so much R&D Heywood, especially Jenna&Megan, for your hard work and support. Would definitely buy and sell with you again ☺️

I bought a house through Ryder and Dutton & the lady that looked after us was called Jenny Boyle. I have to say they made it soo easy and made sure I was always made aware of any updates. Jenny was quick to reply to any emails and always returned my calls. The sale was quick and efficient as Jenny kept on top of the buying process and made sure things were always moving with both mine and the vendor’s solicitors. She was very humble and I felt I could call her for the smallest things and nothing was ever too much. I am soo glad Jenny was my agent and couldn’t ask for anyone better. I spoken to a few different agents during the time and always preferred Jenny as she made everything soo simple and easy. Thankyou soo much for your support

Happy with the service

I recently bought a property through Ryder & Dutton and was very happy with the service provided!The sale didn't go too smoothly and was a lengthy process (through no fault of Ryden & Dutton). Matt was there to help throughout. I was also away for a full month towards of the sale where there were a few complications. Matt was great in these circumstances and helped by communicating going back and forth with all parties to find out exactly what was needed to get the sale complete for me not long after I got back. Thanks Matt. Very friendly and professional throughout

Fantastic

I recently sold my property with Ryder & Dutton, Heywood branch. With it being my first ever sale, I was nervous and had a lot of questions throughout the process. From start to finish it was a great experience. Fran Whittle, Jenna Henley and the rest of the team were very helpful, always available to answer any questions and worked hard to make sure everything went smoothly and as quickly as possible, always with a smile and helpful advice. Jenna kept me informed every step of the way and I felt very comfortable asking questions and asking for advice when needed. Ryder & Dutton made a complicated process a walk in the park which I am very grateful for. I can recommend their services without hesitation. Thank you for all your help, it's much appreciated.

Its been a great pleasure doing business with Ryder & Dutton. I just want to say a massive thank you to Lauren in the rochdale branch. She has supported me from start to finish which I am truly grateful for. She answered all my queries in a timely and professional manner. She is a true asset to Ryder & Dutton who went above and beyond my expectations. I honestly thought buying a house would be quite complex but Lauren made the whole process look easy. Thanks again and I would certainly recommend Ryder & Dutton to any potential buyers and sellers solely due to their excellent customer services.

Choose your recommended conveyancers wisely

I am giving 4 stars not because the service provided by Ryder & Dutton wasn’t very good, because it was. Our contact Laura Chadderton was always available to answer any questions. The issue was the buyers solicitors (ConveyancingHome) who were on the Ryder & Dutton recommended list. They were awful unprofessional and had to be chased constantly and it got that bad that I had to raise a complaint with them directly. The whole process has been very stressful. Moving is stressful enough without conveyancers/solicitors making it worse. A huge thank you to Laura who I give 5 stars to.

Amazing Estate Agent

Throughout my home buying process, Ryder and Duttons Team has been absolutely impeccable. My main point of contact throughout the process was Geraldine who not only kept me updated regularly via email but also called me to check in and was amazing at responding to any queries I had. She chased on my behalf, brought forward any concerns I had to the seller and resolved any problems extremely quickly and efficiently. I’d also like to mention Dylan who facilitated the multiple viewings I had. He was polite, friendly and knowledgeable. Huge thanks to everyone that has supported this process, would highly recommend.

Excellent staff

We sold our house and bought our flat both through Ryder Dutton Rawtenstall in June.Graham was very easy and pleasant to deal with, and always happy to help. Leon took us through the process and was also easy to speak to and very helpful - and in particular very patient when there were slight glitches along the way. Matt was very helpful too, and Megan guided us through the final stages and was always cheerful and quick to respond.All in all, we would highly recommend using the Rawtenstall branch.

Excellent service provided by Ryder & Dutton. Jade and Michaela were fantastic and kept me informed about viewings and feedback from them. Once I accepted an offer Jenny the Sales Manager took over. It wasn’t a straight forward sale as quite complex. Jenny was superb, so professional and kept me informed every step of the way. She really did go above and beyond and I can’t thank her and the team at R&D enough.

Estate agents who were seriously helpful

Throughout the whole process of moving our elderly parents, Ryder and Dutton in Rawtenstall were fantastic to deal with. I would like to recognise Alex McMahon and Graham, in dealing so sensitively with their situation, they were very generous with their time in making everything run as smoothly as possible. Alex took on the communications. She was extremely efficient, she updated us regularly and our calls were dealt with promptly and intelligently. And with a kindness which we really appreciated . We feel we absolutely chose the best agents and would recommend them wholeheartedly.

I would like to thank Branch Coordinator Laura Chadderton.

I would like to thank Branch Coordinator Laura Chadderton at Ryder And Dutton Oldham for making our experience great.We moved to Ryder And Dutton after marketing our property for over a year with another agency and were placed with Laura and immediately we knew we were in safe hands. Laura committed to selling our property and her professionalism and expertise was immediately apparent. She organised a the diary for viewings and kept all parties informed at all times. Laura maintained a dedication to selling the house even when we lost thr first buyer which was very reassuring and we completed with the second buyer today. She has gone above and beyond to make the sale as seamless as possible and has kept us updated on the progress of the sale even if she was on leave . She has been in constant contact with all parties throughout with emails or phone calls always with a friendly and helpful attitude.I would absoloutely recommend Ryder And Dutton because of the exceptional staff they employ.

The absolute best experience

I recently sold my property with Ryder & Dutton, Heywood branch. It was a very positive experience from start to finish. Starting with Fran Whittle who came out to do do the initial valuation with her obvious experience and knowledge of the local market, which is the most important aspect of selling. She also did the photographs and write up and it was listed online within just a few days. From that point on I dealt with Megan D’Angelillo at the local branch who was just excellent in every aspect of her position. She moved to another branch shortly after and Jenna Henley took over, who was also excellent, extremely efficient, professional and with great communication. They have perfected their process and they execute so well, both individually and as a Team. I received multiple, daily emails about viewings which happened immediately the house was listed, which they also handled for me. I had multiple offers within the first week and Jenna was on the ball at all times until we accepted an offer that we were very happy with. Once we agreed with the buyer, the transaction went as quickly as their bank would allow. Jenna kept me informed every step of the way, I never had to call once to ask for updates, she preempted any question before I even asked. It’s rare to get such service, I cannot recommend them highly enough. It becomes very apparent that using your local estate agent who has known the local area for so many years is a must for viewings and communication. I also used a solicitor they are not connected to but are familiar with due to their long, established network of local vendors, which made communication flow much better than if I’d introduced a random, unknown solicitor. This just added to the efficiency of their process to completion. I had no issues at all. Had there been any I would rather have a highly experienced local company on my side than a random online company who have no connection or attachment to the area. I can recommend Ryder & Dutton without hesitation, it was a pleasure to deal with them. Big thanks to Fran, Megan and Jenna, and Catherine who communicated with me also, you were all totally awesome!

Still the Best

We had a number of challenges in selling my late parents house, not least that we all live in Australia. However initially Tony in getting the property on the market and then Amy as our negotiator were both extremely helpful and Amy was excellent at following up with all parties and communicating updates. Having used Ryder and Dutton numerous times when we lived in the UK it is good to see they are still in my opinion the best agents in the region

Geraldine Marsden and Lacey Williams

Geraldine Marsden was absolutely fantastic throughout our home-buying journey with Ryder & Dutton. From the very beginning, she was professional, approachable, and incredibly supportive, making what can often be a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Her communication was excellent, always keeping us informed and responding quickly to any questions we had.

Friendly service that goes above and beyond

I sold my house recently through Ryder Dutton after the excellent service I'd previously had from them as a purchaser, I was not disappointed. From the first approach until the day of completion they were great, friendly, efficient & knowledgable. Fiona amd Freya were brilliant at helping me consider offers & in negotiating and I sold at a price I was happy with.The chain to complete was long and therefore complicated, Fiona went above and beyond to keep things moving and to ensure the completion date happened (despite some lack lustre solicitors for various parties). Highly recommend!
