GoogleMy partner and I purchased our new home through Ryder and Dutton and were helped through the process by Fiona. To say Fiona went above and beyond is an understatement frankly. We had a very complicated chain, and Fiona coordinated between all parties, solicitors and estate agents. She was amazing, communicated with us at all times and although sometimes the news wasn't great, she was still up front with us and informative. I can't recommend Ryder and Dutton enough. If the time comes for us to sell, it's the first place we will contact.
Update July 2026 - We have recently sold our property with Ryder and Dutton. We have now bought and sold through Ryder and Dutton with the same experience. They are fantastic and once again Fiona was brilliant. I cant recommend highly enough.

GoogleCath and her team at Ryder Dutton are the most proactive and pragmatic estate agents around. Offer great advice and critically are communicative and very fast to respond. They are much more flexible than most agents with viewings, consistently delivering Saturday viewings and even out of ours viewings going avice and beyond to secure a sale. Cath is also just a very nice person to deal with as are her team in Fiona and Kia.

GoogleI've bought and sold a few houses and never really truly appreciated what an estate agent does. Why? because they all went smoothly. This time, it did not go smoothly and my eyes have been opened.
Fiona Joyce has been absolutely superb in managing a continually evolving and complex situation for me and my wife. I feel like I've not only been kept well informed, but have been well advised on what to do, when, and more importantly, when to do nothing.
Thank you to Fiona and the rest of the Ryder & Dutton Team for all your help and managing my anxiety!

GoogleRyder and Dutton Holmfirth were honestly fantastic through every aspect of my house sale! Communication was clear and regular, they kept me up to date with everything via emails and phone calls which was really appreciated, every single person I spoke with in the office was always so friendly and informative, especially Fiona, Emmy, Kia, Phoebe and Jo and everyone else there are so many to mention! Thank you so much to everyone there! Highly recommend to anyone wanting to sell !!!

★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleWe sold our house through Ryder and Dutton; Kia was the person we worked with. She was exceptional; unfailingly professional, very friendly and an excellent communicator. The sale process was not straightforward (some conveyancing difficulties), Kia was supportive throughout, we could not have asked for more from her, or Ryder & Dutton. When we sell a house in future, we would choose Ryder & Dutton (& particularly Kia) again - they set the standard for the rest of the industry to follow.

GoogleWe recently used Ryder & Dutton to sell our first home and couldn’t recommend them highly enough. Every member of the team was excellent and extremely helpful, especially Kia. She was absolutely fantastic from start to finish always on the ball and doing everything she could to make the whole process far less stressful.

GoogleRyder and Dutton did a wonderful job in selling our Holmfirth house at a time of a considerable challenges for us. Catherine, Fiona and Kia were all very responsive, professional and personable; I cannot praise their support, advice and the quality of their communication highly enough. Catherine provided excellent strategic advice around the marketing of the property - including price and timeframes for sale. Fiona largely managed the day to day aspects of the sale and was outstanding in all respects, keeping us and all relevant parties updated on progress at each stage of the process. She provided a calm, empathetic and listening ear combined with a positive front-foot and problem-solving approach. Kia kept abreast of developments throughout and her communication was excellent too.
Thank you all: your support, advice and endeavour has been very much appreciated by Karen and I. As a consequence we wouldn't hesitate to enlist Ryder and Dutton again should we require an Estate Agent (hopefully not for some years!). Equally we would wholeheartedly and unreservedly recommend Ryder and Dutton.

★★★★★ 5/5
GoogleFrom start to finish the service from the staff at Ryder & Dutton, Holmfirth has been exemplary.
A friendly and professional valuation from Catherine immediately made me decide on who I wanted to handle the sale
Despite offers on the house straight away there were disappointments along the way, all part of the stress of selling a house, but the support, help and reassurance from Fiona, Phoebe and Kia in the office was outstanding. Whether it was for an update, to chase up progress or just to moan to they were always there to talk and sort any issues, nothing was too much trouble for them.
I have no hesitation in recommending the Holmfirth Ryder and Dutton team.

GoogleAfter a disappointing experience with another estate agent, who offered very little help or advice and were poor at communicating and responding to calls and emails, moving to Ryder & Dutton Holmfirth was a breath of fresh air.
From my very first telephone call through to my first face-to-face appointment, I have been incredibly impressed. During what has been a stressful time, their support and professionalism have been exactly what I needed.
It's clear that the team genuinely care about their clients and want to achieve the best possible outcome for them. Nothing is ever too much trouble, and they are always willing to help and answer any questions.
A special mention must go to Catherine, who has been amazing throughout. She has been understanding of my situation, approachable, and has always provided honest, straightforward advice. Her support and reassurance have made a real difference.
I would highly recommend Ryder & Dutton Holmfirth to anyone looking for an estate agent that truly puts its clients first.

GoogleR&D already looked after a property for me, which they have done amazingly but this was the first time I used them to sell a property.
Where do I start! I have so much amazing things to say!
Let's start with Catherine. Catherine was absolutely amazing! From the moment I met her I knew Catherine would be the agent for me. You just know when you meet people. Her knowledge and kindness and infectious personality was more than enough to win me over!
Then the star of the whole process Fiona! I can not praise Fiona enough! The kindness and dedication that Fiona has for her clients is inspiring. Fiona always kept me informed was always just a phone call away for any advice or help I needed. Fiona delas with everything with such ease and kindness and really understands how vulnerable clients can feel when selling or buying properties, after all it huge decision and commitment.
I honestly can never thank Catherine and Fiona enough for everything they have done.
Why anyone picks another estate agent to sell their property in Huddersfield I will never understand!

GoogleRyder and Dutton have been excellent with our house sale. Informative, patient and diligent with their work. A special shout out to Micheal their mortgage advisor who works in house a few days a week. He worked specifically hard to get us a good deal and was very thorough.

GoogleTom was extremely helpful from start to finish. He was full of advice and made a very stressful experience much more easy to deal with. He has the patience of a saint as I'm sure I was the worse customer he has ever had.

GoogleI’ve not sold or moved home for a long time. Ryder and Dutton Estate agents were available every step of the way and helped push things along through a stressful and complicated process. Kia particularly was supportive and ensured I was communicated with on a regular basis. All people I interacted with at the Holmfirth branch were very friendly and responsive to any query. I fully recommend Ryder and Dutton to anyone thinking of selling and/ or buying a property.

GoogleTLC were our letting agents for many years.They were excellent at selecting tenants and always consulted with us before putting them into the property.We had no hesitation therefore in appointing them as our agents when we decided to sell.Tom Lawrence acquired a potential buyer very quickly but the buyer strung us along dor many months and then cancelled when we were ready to complete.It was a very stressful experience but through it all Tom remained calm,helpful and professional.Fortunately we acquired anew buyer very quickly.I would have no hesitation in recommending TLC as a letting agent or to handle a sale.

GoogleIf it hadn't been for Fiona and the team at Holmfirth Office we would not have managed to move, simple as that. With lots of issues along the way, delays and weeks with nothing from legals, only Fiona and colleagues kept us believing we'd one day be in our new home. I can honestly say I have never known a company go further to help their clients and all with such compassion and understanding. We're only sorry early setbacks from various others in the process loaded more work onto Fiona. We are truly grateful.
