GoogleIt's clear from looking at reviews here that Farrell Heyworth put all their efforts into those buying and selling, and next to no effort to lettings and managing lettings.
I spent two weeks trying to view a rental property that had just been advertised on their website. I tried booking viewings online, which were just ignored. The dates and times came and went with no acknowledgement from them. I also tried contacting them via WhatsApp (which they advertise on their website), and they never replied. When calling them, it mostly just rings and rings until the call automatically aborts after about three minutes. The only way to get through is to navigate the options to pretend you're a landlord trying to let a property, suddenly they pick up very promptly.
By the time I had finally managed to book a viewing, they had reduced the rent on the property I wanted to view. Apparently five people all viewed it on the same day, and all made offers, myself included. I was told I would get a courtesy call the following day to let me know the outcome. Of course, I didn't. I chased it several days later and was told it had gone to someone else. I was told this is just what the market's like and that demand is outstripping supply. Surely that would mean rents go up, not down? I would have been happy to pay the original rent, which makes me wonder what they were telling the landlord. Presumably the landlord reduced the rent because they thought no-one was interested?
Anyway, obviously appalling service and I'm not going to bother trying to rent any other properties through them.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with the service you received when attempting to view one of our properties. As my colleagues have explained we are experiencing higher levels of demand than usual at present and this has meant that in some cases we haven't been able to offer our usual service levels. We understand this must be frustrating.
My colleagues are keen to speak with you to rearrange an appointment and help you to find the right home. We are always looking for ways to improve our service so thank you again for bringing this matter to our attention.

GoogleRate these the poorest estate agents I've been with. They talk about you behind your back plus miss out on sales . Just messed Me about. Also very rude . Was selling my house with them but had to give backwards on it as my health had Deteriorated and we had an offer we accepted at the time and could not go ahead so the young lady on the phone turned nasty and said how dare you give backwards we've got a sale. Not thinking of my health but thinking of there selves. Very careless and rude and disrespectful. Can't remember every word she said now but it was so nasty and Professional and not acceptable . Sorry to have to say this but not a good Experience so gone else where. They should be putting there buyers first not there selves.

I have had the opportunity to review your comments and understand that the matter you refer to was concluded in 2018. I can see from our notes that you were frustrated that we were unable to take instruction from yourself as you were not the registered owner of the property to which this refers. That being the case we cannot discuss this matter any further.
I am satisfied that our staff acted with professionalism at all times in this matter on our clients behalf and in accordance with our legal obligations.

GoogleConsistently disappointing and disinterested. I've enquired after several properties and get the most basic, curt answers as though they can't wait to get me off the phone. Some of their staff don't even know their own properties - I once enquired after a house in a particular area and he (hurriedly of course) replied that they don't deal with this area - despite said area clearly being mentioned in the listing.
Oh and they almost never pick up and voicemails are rushed, again, as though they can't wait to be done with it all.
I wonder if they're just severely underpaid to the point of giving no craps but definitely the most disappointing 'agency' out there.

GoogleHave been chasing our deposit back for nearly a month and a half. My Partner has sent nearly 10 emails over the last week or so and have been ignored. Every time we ring we get fobbed off and told we will be called back tomorrow. Have been tried to be made to feel bad because someone in the office was off due to family circumstances, which has nothing to do with how an estate agent/property manager operates. Never get a call the next day. Still no deposit and Farrell Heyworth have now gone quiet and started ignoring myself and my partner. Will be getting legal advice on this as it is just awful how they can get away with ignoring us just because we no longer live at one of their properties, yet still hold 750 of our money that we are legally entitled to less any deductions.

★★★★★ 2/5
GoogleThere are a few reasons for this 2 star rating.
After signing up for 2 property viewings for renting, we received a call to tell us that one of the house had already been letted. Why would a house that has already been let be available on the website to book viewings?
Regardless, we were not told anything to the contrary of viewing the other house. Myself and my partner waited in the pouring rain for half an hour and no one turned up. We tried to ring the office and had to ring several times for an answer, and even then we couldn't get through to the right department and ended up being told to wait for a call back which we never received. This disorganisation and poor customer service is incredibly disappointing when you are desperately searching for somewhere to live.
In these dealings, Farrell Hayworth informed us that their website is not reliable and property enquiries should be made directly through emailing or ringing them. So, when we found more properties we were interested in, we emailed them because of our failed attempt at phoning in the past, but did not get a response.
Therefore, not only is the Farrell Hayworth website non functional and acknowledged as such by employees, but all forms of communication are continuously lacking. The property viewing system requires genuine reconsideration if they want to do right by customers.

GoogleI was so apprehensive to put our house up for sale in general, and my original thought process was just to get F & H out to give a valuation, and see what happens.
From the very first meeting with the valuing team, I was impressed. Within 2 days, the house was up on the market and on rightmove.
By the time the third day came, the house was booked in for 4/5 viewings. By day 7, the house had sold.
Every member of the team I dealt with were so friendly and helpful, making the stressful process that little bit easier. They were all so understanding and made me feel less like a mad woman each time I spoke with them.
We also ended up purchasing our property with F & H, as we found they were so helpful and our dream house was also up for sale with them. Everything that Farrell and Heyworth could do to help, they did.
5/5 recommendation and although I hope to stay in this new property forever, if we did ever consider moving again, I would only use these guys.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
