Geraldine kept us up to date throughout the process of our sale. We have recently used Ryder & Dutton twice to sell properties, where other agents have failed.

TrustpilotThe worst agency you could put in…
The worst agency you could put in charge of your house. If you want a hassle free service DO NOT use them. My experience has been consistently disappointing. Communication has been poor from the outset, with repeated mistakes, delays, and a lack of attention to detail.
The viewing process was handled unprofessionally, with the agent appearing unfamiliar with the property and unable to answer basic questions. Throughout the tenancy management, there were administrative errors, unexplained charges, and a general lack of transparency. Routine inspections were significantly delayed despite repeated chasing and, when eventually carried out, were incomplete.
I also found the agency unwilling to apply the terms of the tenancy agreement consistently, often appearing to overlook clear breaches while placing the burden on the landlord to resolve issues. Rather than acting as an impartial managing agent, they frequently seemed to favour one side instead of managing the tenancy fairly and professionally.
Overall, the service has been disorganised and below the standard I would expect from a professional letting agency. Based on my experience, I would not recommend them.

Extremely friendly and professional from start to finish. My wife and i were due to have a baby end of July so started the whole moving process end of Jan with the hope we'd have sufficient time to move and settle, but a difficult seller was making this impossible. Our Move Manager, Catherine Salisbury co-ordinated between us all to keep the ball rolling and made sure everyone was moving forward and we cant thank her enough for this. We eventually moved on 20th July just in time for our baby to arrive on 31st!

I recently sold my property through Ryder & Dutton, and I have to say, the experience was made so much easier thanks to Catherine Salisbury, who was my point of contact once the sale went through.

Geraldine has been amazing for us with our move. Constantly updating in times when it felt no one else was communicating our place in the whole moving process and helped up to understand more about the steps both estate agents and solicitors take. I really can’t thank her enough, she is a credit to your company.

TrustpilotMatt Walsh…is a star ⭐️
Matt Walsh came to value my late father’s house. From the minute he arrived he showed care and compassion to my circumstances. He was personable yet professional and engaged fully throughout the evaluation. He showed an empathy and understanding not witnessed by the other 3 estate agents who visited. I just wanted Matt to be recognised for this and although my circumstances have changed somewhat and we have taken the decision not to sell just yet, you can be sure, that when the time comes, I will have no hesitation on instructing Ryder and Dutton to sell my property. Thank you again Matt and I wish you all the best….Lorna Holden (36 Hopcroft close)

TrustpilotRecently viewed an R&D property
Recently viewed an R&D property - Amy was lovely and professional. By far, she was the friendliest member of staff we have encountered. She made a conscious effort to get to know myself and my husband, what we were looking for in a property and made general conversation about family life. Would highly recommend asking for Amy when viewing a property or would like more information on any R&D properties. Thanks again Amy!

TrustpilotExceptional service from Ada and Michelle
We cannot recommend Ryder & Dutton enough. Everyone we have dealt with have been very diligent and professional throughout the entire process. In particular, we would like to extend thanks to Ada and Michelle for their support in our purchase that ended up being extremely challenging. They both were fantastic support and helped see things through.

TrustpilotPoor all round experience
Offered on a property that was rejected only for the ‘sales negotiator’ to contact us weeks later to say the seller would accept our offer. The agent then dropped the price on the property and when we offered above the asking price we were told we ‘messed them about’ and our offer would not be considered. To describe them as incompetent would be being polite.

TrustpilotTelephone problems
Geraldine Marsden handled my queries very well though communication via email was in my opinion not always the quickest way. Getting through on the phone to the office was always a nightmare. And often I was told that the person I wanted worked in a different office. If I was struggling to get through on the phone I am sure buyers were having the same trouble. A surveyor who was surveying for the buyers said his company had the same trouble.

Hi Elizabeth, thank you for the feedback and I am very sorry to hear you had difficulty reaching Geraldine by phone.

Thank you for highlighting this issue and we will ensure this is made clearer in future.

TrustpilotHighly recommend Ryder&Dutton
We highly recommend Ryder&Dutton in Huddersfield. They were incredibly responsive and patient. As first-time buyers and just moved to this town, we needed to see many properties to find the right one for us. Some estate company ignored our request to view the properties when we requested to see their 3rd properties, but not Ryder&Dutton, we can view as many as we wanted as they knew buying house is not small money so we needed to make sure if the house is right one for us. They were always available for questions and made a stressful process easy. Big thanks to Kizzie and all her team.
