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.

After consultation with Kieran, we listed the property on a Friday. Viewing on Saturday and tenant agreed on Tuesday (Monday was a bank holiday!) The process has been painless and professional. All our queries have been promptly responded to.

Don't pay any holding deposit until when they say, think and make sure the property is correct. they will not return you deposit and talk to you with no respect.Alex from Stoke on Trent is the worst person to deal with and he is manager of branches in stoke.

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!

My Initial Call with Lucy was warm and welcoming, she was able to accommodate myself for a viewing soon as due to my work schedule, ever since Lucy has followed up and has been nothing but above and beyond for myself and my wife, she has kept us in the loop from start to finish I would definitely highly recommend anyone to approach Lucy as I am confident that you will receive the highest level of service that we have received I am grateful for the fast and efficient process to renting my home. Once again perfect service from Lucy and the team.

Poor service, Beautiful properties

I rented a lovely property though Reid Raines for nearly two years with no issues with payment from myside. Me and my partner purchased our first mortgage and vacated the property in December 16th 2022 in line with our contract with all payments made to the penny. We are now on the 24th Jan 2023 and I am still chasing my deposit down which my landlord paid back the full amount to Reid Raines. The issue is no fault of my own but an admin issue between the deposit company and the estate agents not responding to each other. Sue is a manager at the Liverpool branch who often sighs down the phone and talks with an aggressive tone when asked for updates. I work in the customer service industry in a senior management position so I know how to communicate professionally which Reid Raines maybe need some top up training on. I have since paid the £25 same day bank transfer as I felt it money well spent not having to communicate with this estate agents again.Although I understand sometimes people may not be having the best day - my experience with Reid Raines is unprofessional and I seemed like I was bothering them by calling and speaking politely. They offer beautiful properties with a unprofessional service which his a shame but hopefully they can improve. 2/10

Hillsborough branch

Had an appointment with the mortgage advisor, Joe at hillsborough branch. Absolutely brilliant experience. Joe was lovely and so helpful. The entire team were lovely and could tell it was a nice work environment. The team was so good at communicating with me and my boyfriend so we was always up to date with everything. Would highly recommend.

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.

When the going got tough, the manager went AWOL

This is in reference to the Rye Branch.All started well with my intended property purchase, but I was to learn I made a big mistake in using their recommended company of conveyancing solicitors.When the latter proved to be simply appalling, the branch manager decided to go AWOL. No attempt was made to retrieve the situation or to contact me.That was the end of the potential sale. So very disappointing.

We have recently completed on a property sale with Reeds Rains in Portishead. They offered welcome support at all times and we found them a pleasure to work with, nothing was too much trouble. If l was selling property in the area again in future l wouldn’t hesitate to use them or recommend them to anyone else.

Such a great experience with Phoebe from Reeds Rains. I had been searching for a property to rent for 2 months with no luck then a few came up with Reeds Rains and I can honestly say Phoebe with her professionalism and politeness she was on a mission to help me. She talked me through the whole process from start to finish. Would definitely recommend Reeds Rains.

Rude

Rude, degrading staff. Not helpful at all very judgmental and cocky. Would never ever like to sell my house or buy a house from them. Andrew was fabulous everyone else just total discussing rude behaviour, no empathy and just rude.

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 .

Absolute rubbish. Do not use Reeds Reins Ossett

Absolute rubbish. I don’t recommend. I’m in the process of selling. It’s been a total frustration & I feel very badly let down by the staff at Reeds Reins Ossett. I have no idea what they are doing for their commission as it’s always me that’s chasing & trying to get things moving, I’m always getting the answer machine & I very rarely get calls back. It would be a very big review if I went into the nitty gritty of the problems due to their lack of effort. Communication is RUBBISH, the worst of any company I have ever dealt with. They didn’t keep on top of our first sale & we lost alot of time because of them. The second sale is on with & again they haven’t done anything. We’re 3 months into a sale that was supposed to take a month & it’s because they don’t chase things up or communicate with you. I complained by email to the manager laying out their negligence with the first sale. One of the members of staff agreed with my comments on the phone but the manager never responded. I rang twice for a response to my email…nothing. I’ve screenshot all the calls & you can see from my call log that they don’t get back to you. I emailed asking for a response to my complaint & it wasn’t barely a response just a couple of lines of nothing. I’m so so frustrated & fed up of doing all the leg work myself. Very disappointed. I was about to pull out of the sale & move somewhere else as I’d had enough & then they finally did something, however since then I’ve had nothing & yet again I’ve had to chase.

Terrible service

the service at Reed rain Durham, Darlington and Leeds is an absolute sxxtshow. there's no communication and the landlord isn't kept in the loop with anything. all the staff dealing with our property are totally incompetent and useless. they pass you on to other staff as they aren't capable of sorting out the job. Happy to take your money but provide no service. go to another estate agent 🙂

Advised terribly

Advised terribly, advise was made for the benefit of Reeds Rains and not myself.Communication lacking.Pulled out at a cost to me.I can only tell you my experience and that is they don't care about the customer.The person advising me thought because i had to pay a fee to pull out, i would be reluctant to do it. There is no chance I would let them sell my house after all this. And on that, i have spoken to someone else who said they were trying to sell a house for nearly a year without success using Reed Rains, they went elsewhere and it sold after a week.You live and learn...
