Reeds Rains London reviews

0/10

If I could review this estate agents lower I would. I initially signed for a property in 2021 with a partner - they messed us around for weeks at a time and made the moving in process as stressful as possible which lead to them finally releasing the keys after office hours despite having a moving van waiting all day. Immediately after moving in we had to make a formal complaint due to having to wait over 8 weeks for acknowledgement on maintenance issues. Not something you want straight after moving into a property? Not to mention later going 3 days without heating or hot water in the height of winter.They shut us up by offering to pay compensation of £150 for the inconvenience.However, later in the tenancy the other tenant moved out leaving me, a single young woman, living alone. The landlord, an older gentleman, turned up to the property without notice several times. On one occasion, I granted access to the property for him to review some damp problems, whereby he made multiple inappropriate comments about how my tattoos would look better without my clothes on, and that I was safe going upstairs alone with him. A few days after this, he knocked on the door at circa 7pm at night asking me to go for drinks with him.Being a woman living alone, knowing that this man is aware of this and is in a position of power, I didn't speak out until the end of the tenancy.This landlord then decided to claim over £700 of damages from myself. Luckily, we used the Zero Deposit Guarantee scheme and so they disputed this on my behalf and over £500 of this claim was rejected. Leaving me to pay just under £185 which was settled at the end of 2023.However, over a year after the end of the tenancy, Reeds Rains has just contacted me stating that I owe them £22. A reminder this was paid in 2023, the year that the tenancy ended.I would never ever recommend anybody to use this estate agents, it's a law suit waiting to happen and they clearly don't care about the safety of their tenants from landlords taking advantage of their position nor do they communicate with each other at all and prefer to harass previous tenants.

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. Worst agent in the North East

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. We recently bought a house and these people were unfortunately the acting agent. The vendor wasn't happy with them and neither were we. What a rip -off. Talk about giving the industry a bad name. Charged us £60 to carry out an I.D. check when we were stood in their office with our official documents. No, we can't take a copy, you have to pay a fee and use our app!! So we paid under duress as we wanted the property. The app simply asked us to upload the documents. As if that made any difference as opposed to them photocopying or scanning them themselves. During the next six to eight weeks of the process, we never had one single phone call from them giving us any update. When we rang them close to completing on the purchase we were told they would ring us. They didn't!! I have dealt with other agents as an investor and for private purchases. These people are pathetic and a disgrace to the industry. Don't touch them with a bargepole. Useless!!

Wonderful! Really very helpful

You were really very helpful, listened & understood. Some agents just wanted to give a valuation without viewing our home and seriously undervalued what it was worth.The viewings were on time, you obviously know what you are doing as it sold in a week, quicker than we expected.All in all a very pleasant experience.Thanks, will recommend your professionalism to others.

Really awful company to deal with

Really awful company to deal with. They lie many times and avoid responsibility for their incompetence, Integrity is missing in bucketloads but greed is a paramount behaviour. Why this company is allowed to operate as a tenancy management company with utter contempt toward the customer is beyond me. Hard faced liars. Not a thread of sincerity. Absolutely stressful to deal with and will never go back.

Reeds Rain Blackpool - poor Customer Service and Liars

Reeds Rains Blackpool provide a shocking service to tenants/potential tenants. I viewed a property on Saturday and emailed after the viewing to say I was interested but needed the remnants of the previous tenant removing (including dirty pillows and shower gel) and some electrical things checking to confirm they all were in satisfactory working order. I expected at least an email to thank me for my interest but nothing so I called and left a message for the negotiator to call me back. No return call so I called again and was told by the other lettings person that the landlord had rejected my interest with no explanation available. The negotiator, Hannah, had left at this point. I left a message for her to call the following day and still no contact. I rang two more times and finally got to speak to her but she though being told no was satisfactory with no explanation. I said she was meant to negotiate with me and the landlord as without a tenant there is no let. I agreed to store the tat in the cellar and asked her to go back to the landlord. We then got cut off and I rang back and her colleague refused to transfer the call! I advised the Hannah was taking my details (again) and was going to speak to the landlord. She then put me on hold without warning and then came back to say that half an hour ago, the landlord had called to say that their friend was taking on the house. I left it here, but my partner called up today to show interest int he property and was told it was still available! So not only is the customer service atrocious, they are liars too! Avoid at all costs.

Gosforth Team

The team at Gosforth Newcastle are knowledgeable about the area and the market. I have used their services for several years. Their strength , in my opinion , is their ability to deal with queries and problems quickly. They are always easy to reach by phone and email and a pleasure to talk to. Thank you Kirsty, Phil and Maddie.

Great service and professionalism.

It was a great experience dealing with Reeds Rains. I just landed in UK and I struggled a lot in finding a place as per my need, but special call out to Gurdit for his attitude and professionalism to make this deal for me. I dealt with Many agents before when I was here last time but Team Reeds Rains is best in every aspect be it responding to calls, emails and top class service. Thank you Gurdit and Team, much appreciated.

Best lettings agents in the area - Gosforth

The staff at reeds rains Gosforth couldn't have made our renting experience any easier. From the viewing all the way up until us moving into the property they have been helpful in anyway they could, even down to recommending companies to help us move with us not being from the area. Big shout out to Phil and Kirsty!

Why do we still need Estate Agents in 2024?

Apparently this estate agent can only sell houses during THIER opening times. How ridiculous. All they need to do is contact the seller to ask if they are happy to undertake a viewing after work, around 5-6pm. If the seller is not happy with that, fine, I'll respect their wishes and find another property. My wife and I are registered with them and we've already viewed another property where the vendor showed us round. Don't the majority of people who want to buy a house work for a living? I thought estate agents had modernised their practices but Reeds Rains still seem stuck in the 80s.

POOR ESTATE AGENT

We used Reeds Rains selby north yorkshire to sell our bungalow , things were ok ( allthough we had to do all the chasing up on viewings and despite telling the manager not happy with the service or the lack of it nothing changed ) upto selling but once we had a buyer the manager lost all interest , no updates with how things were progressing and not even a thank you once they got paid quite a large sum of money . definitely will never use them again .
