GoogleFirst class service from Dacres selling our house and to the purchase of the ‘new’ house. Special mention to Harriet who guided and supported us through the complicated system of moving house-thank you Harriet and all the staff at the Knaresborough branch of Dacres.

GoogleAnita showed us around our new home, she allowed us time and ensured all of our questions were answered
After our offer was accepted she kept in touch and was always on hand to support us. On completion day she kept in touch and provided us with a lovely gift bag with the keys. I would highly recommend Anita and her team
Thank you

GoogleI can highly recommend Dacre Son and Hartley. All the staff are extremely friendly and professional and nothing is too much trouble. Nick is vastly experienced and my home sold on the first day. The marketing of my property was superb with excellent photos and a comprehensive and accurate description of the property. Anita and Harriet are both very knowledgeable and efficient and supported me throughout the process of selling my home and I am hugely grateful to them. You will not regret choosing this company.

TrustpilotWould highly recommend
Would highly recommend. Staff in at the West Park office (thanks Jen and Amie) were very professional, helpful and did exactly what was promised. Throughout the viewing process they kept us up to date, always had a named contact who was prompt to respond to questions. When it came to completing the sale - we had many issues agents in the chain and solicitors, however Jen and Amie chased up, kept us informed and I felt were always working in our best interests.

GoogleWhilst Dacres, Son & Hartley were in essence working for the vendor I found them extremely helpful from my very first phone call. They were kind, friendly and extremely approachable with any questions I had. At one point I thought my sale would not go through if the vendors didn't move out on a certain day as promised. I voiced my concerns to the agents and in less than an hour they called me back after speaking to their client and were happy to allay my fears. Nothing was too much trouble and I have no hesitation in recommending them. Should I ever need the services of an estate agent they would be my first call. Thank you Dacres for everything you helped me with.

GoogleAmazing service from Dacres Knaresborough office from start to finish. Nick's valuation and recommendations were well researched with supportive evidence and it was great to tap into his vast local knowledge. Harriet’s support throughout the selling process was exemplary and very professional, the offers received were well evaluated and recommendations provided to highlight the top contenders. Harriet updated us frequently on the progress of the chain of buyers below us and ensured any problems were highlighted quickly. Overall, it was her approach that contributed to a positive experience and successful conclusion. Thankyou.

TrustpilotPateley Bridge - Top service
Alison from Dacre at Pateley Bridge was fantastic with our move. She was proactive in finding us our home by reaching out to us whenever a new property that we could be interested in came on the market, she kept us updated throughout and was always on the ball to make sure the sale went through as quickly as possible always one step ahead with the solicitors and seller. 12 weeks in total for the sale to go through …would definitely recommend Dacre and Alison for your house sale or purchase

GoogleVery happy. Dacres have been excellent to work with. We have had good communication throughout from friendly staff.

TrustpilotA disappointing service
Such a disappointing service from Dacres. Getting to the point of having your home valued is a big thing, especially in the current climate. And having worked hard on making significant improvements to the house, the descriptions received by the valuer were unfair, mostly negative and insulting. There was a lot of talking and very little listening. Realistic and constructively critical comments are one thing, insults are another and there are ways in which you can support and guide a potential vendor without making them feel so uncomfortable and upset in the process. Sadly, this isn't an estate agent I would either recommend or use based on this.

TrustpilotSold house via Dacres
Sold house via Dacres, not a fast process from them, took ages to upload our home on different websites. Sara was the best, more helpful then anyone else there. We been advised the house will be available on different websites inc: Right move etc, on some websites the house not appeared. also been told we will get shoe cover (never got it). been told we potentially can get 200-215 for the house and once we received the first offer of 195 benn told to accept this as we won't get anything better. Not a great service. Not using Morley service again

Thank you for taking the time to offer this feedback for our Morley office. We work hard to provide a 5-star service for every customer and are sorry to hear that you didn’t feel to have had this experience on this occasion. The property market can be very dynamic, and property values can fluctuate based on various factors especially at a time of increasing base and mortgage rates. All aspects of the offer were carefully considered, including the buyer's financial standing, the current market conditions, and any benefits to a faster sale. If you'd like to discuss anything further, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

TrustpilotGreat service from Ian Bradbury at Darce Son & Hartley
Ian B at Darce Son and Hartley was friendly and professional. His reassuring manner, mixed with his knowledge and understanding, gave us complete confidence every step of the way. It’s rare to find someone who truly listens and cares, and Ian went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled for us. I would highly recommend Darce Son and Hartley, especially because of Ian’s outstanding service. Thank you for making a positive buying experience.

TrustpilotTerrible service
Terrible service, unethical and will screw you over as a buyer as soon as look at you. Had an issue with our sale, but they stated they'd keep the chain together. They didn't, they have said they were contacted by someone who found out, but there was no need to do this. We were back procedable by the Wednesday. On the Thursday EVENING they showed the property again, having never informed us this was happening.

TrustpilotSharp Practice
As per the 15+ negative reviews already written about this so called Agency NOTHING has changed. Thank God that due to their sharp practice I a cash buyer was not even disclosed to the seller nor afforded a viewing of the property I wished to purchase. I was told," Don't bother going to the house it's just been sold". I was 2miles from the house on the Date and Time agreed for my "Viewing" !!!! It transpired it was sold the day before and they didn't have the courtesy to tell me nor the owner who wanted a "Cash Buyer" NOT TO BE TRUSTED!!!!!
