Farrell Heyworth Preston reviews

★★★★★ 5/5

Google

I was in search of my very first rental property but I was living abroad which meant I had to send a third party to view flats for me. After a few failed attempts at finding my 'perfect' home through private landlords I found a lovely little flat advertised by Farrell Hayworth. A couple of days later my parents had arranged a viewing which I attended through Skype. We all instantly fell in love with the flat, it was perfect for my needs and Russell was very accommodating to my large and unusual viewing party, patiently answering questions being fired at him from 3 generations of Doyles. From that moment I knew that I wanted to make my home in the property but as I was abroad at the time it was going to be difficult. Russell worked long and hard to find the way to make it happen for me and that hard work paid off. After 1 week of being back in the U.K. I got the keys to my beautiful new home, I am now settled in and I am happier than I ever thought I could be. My landlords are as wonderful as Russell said they were and my flat is perfect. Russell and his colleagues at Farrell Hayworth went above and beyond to help me, they could have taken an easier tenant for the flat but they decided to work extra hard to get me my dream. I would recommend Farrell Hayworth to anybody who wishes to receive A highly professional service by wonderfully down to earth people. A massive thank you to all who were involved!

My experience with Farrell and Heyworth Fulwood has been brilliant, i dealt with Tom and he has been helpful through the whole process of purchasing a property, from the start where he gave me ideas and picked several houses for me to view after sitting down and listening to my budget, requirements and wishes from a house. He was very friendly and i could contact him anytime even if it was out of working hours. Tom wasn’t pushy towards a sale or pressuring at all, he let me decide for myself and due to this i would recommend him to anyone purchasing a house and go to him again in the future. Overall i was very pleased with the experience and advise anyone who is interested in purchasing a house to use Tom or in fact anyone from Farrel and Heyworth Fulwood as they all made you feel welcome and made the whole experience of buying a house an absolute delight.

We asked Farrell Hayworth to list and sell our house, in January, Simon the Manger from Garstang Rd office came and valued our property for sale, the advice he gave us was to prove invaluable along the way. We had found a property and had an offer accepted, Simon handed the responsibility over to Tom to market and sell our house, which he achieved in less than 3 weeks. Due to unforeseen circumstances we had to pull out of the sale and start the process again. Within 1 hour Tom had us another buyer who had sold their property and looking to by in our area, the house was viewed and sold immediately. We had found another property to buy and the wheels were put in motion. Simon, Tom, Alison and the team at Farrell Hayworth Fulwood Branch, went above and beyond what we would expect from an estate agency, they became the hinge pin and driving force between the solicitors, our buyers and ourselves, absolutely nothing was to much trouble. Our sale and purchase completed, but not without a couple of hitches, again Simon, Tom and Alison stepped up to bring everything back on track. They are not only Estate Agents, they are professional, committed, friendly but above all a credit to the company. After the service we received throughout the process, our gratitude is immeasurable, we would not hesitate to recommend Simon and his team to anyone.

Taylor has been outstanding from the word go. Her professionalism, communication and expertise in handling a collapsed sale to completing the next has been nothing short of outstanding. @taylortownsend we cannot thank you enough.

I tried to book a viewing for a property but they first told me i need to do an online viewing and see if we like the property. The online viewing comprised of a shoddy video made by amateurs and i would not really call it a viewing. Anyway, we were still interested in the property so i called the agent and asked if we could book a traditional viewing. I am a cash buyer and i was told that i cant view the property without showing proof that i have the cash ready. What a ridiculous notion!!! i have viewed several properties recently with other agents and not one has asked me for proof of funds, so why is Farrell Heyworth being so awkward. Moreover, why would i view a property if i know i cant afford it. Its simple maths, i either have the cash or i do not, its not like a mortgage where there is a chance it may be rejected. Absolute shocking service from these people and i would advise everyone to stay well away. In this difficult climate, they are making things tougher for buyers and i cannot believe they are turning potential buyers down. STAY WELL AWAY!!! NEW REVIEW: I had my second contact with this estate agent 2 weeks ago. i left an enquiry to purchase a flat and was told they will contact me to arrange a viewing. 2 weeks later i still didnt receive a call or email to arrange the viewing so i called them today. They told me that there was a block viewing last week and the property has now been sold. What a joke!. Nobody bothered to call me to view the property and now the seller was forced to accept an offer which was way lower than ours because he didnt even know we wanted to make an offer. Customer service at this company is non existent. Worst experience ive had with a estate agent and second time this has happened with them. So frustrating!NegativeQuality, Professionalism, Value

Absolutely shocking service from this so called estate agency, we made an offer on a property (asking price) and was told the offer was accepted and the vendor was taking it off the market, once the estate agent knew we were not using them to sell our property we were told another offer had been made, obviously it was not taken off the market, and we could make a higher offer, they then denied their claims of taking it off the market, would not use these people again for buying or selling, avoid them at all costs

Utterly terrible! I would agree with the other one-star reviews on here. One review states that they would not recommend this agency to my worst enemy! Wholeheartedly agree!! The all-white agency is full of awkward, problem-identifiers who aren't very knowledgeable of the local market and seem deliberately unhelpful. Chris Plumpton, the branch head, is laughable as the head of the office. He's also unresponsive and difficult, as are his very unhelpful team, including Blake. Not surprised if this branch doesn't close down soon.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

We was pleased with James as he was the first person we met and he went out of his way to help us, we know there were a few snags over the moving in date but after talking with Nathan it was very promptly resolved. Overall we were happy with the service, we are so happy in our new home, thank you all as a team God bless.

Katie Ward recently rented my newly purchased house out for me within days of it going on the market. She was extremely professional, efficient in organising the deal, and always available for any queries I had throughout the process, top job! I would highly recommend her for any property related services you require.

Excellent service so far and I have no doubt this will continue to the conclusion of our sale and purchase. We were both very impressed by the speed, marketing, the quality of the video tour and photos on the two properties as well as the way in which all of the documentation is held within the My FH portal. Looking forward to seeing more timeline stages go green on our journey to completion and our new home.

Katy Heslop and Jessica Jones have been absolutely amazing. They were both 'on it' right from the start, excellent communication and left us in no doubt they would sell our property which they did. We would recommend these guys to anyone who is looking to sell a Property in Preston.

Cannot recommend Simon highly enough. He was excellent and I am not exaggerating when I say that my property was sold in record time for the full asking price. 3 days upon it going live and I had an offer for the full asking. I'm the first to admit that I wasn't the easiest to work with, but Simon and the rest of the team were brilliant. Head and shoulders above the competition.

A big thank you to the Fulwood Office team for their professional service in selling our parent's property. From my initial visit to the office, Carrie's expert valuation and advice, the accompanied viewings and Natalie and Lucy negotiating the sale, through to completion, they were always friendly, knowledgeable and responded promptly. We would highly recommend FH Fulwood and for making a sometimes difficult process easier!

It was an absolute delight to have KATY HELSOP value my property. KATY was extremely pro-active, professional, knowledgeable and clearly very skilled in her role when she visited. In addition to these skills, KATY was very personable. I was confident from the outset that Katy would do everything within her power to market my property to a very high standard and in a speedy manner. Within less than 24 hours of my property being placed on the open market, my For Sale sign was errected. I received and accepted an offer within 10 days of going live. The morning after the offer was made and accepted, the Sold sign had gone up . I am truly grateful to KATY for her expertise. Without it, I would not have received an offer in such a speedy manner. KATY has encouraged me to contact her if I have any concerns or problems at any point throughout the moving process. All Workplaces would be privileged to have KATY HELSOP on their Team with the energy, passion, dedication and strong work ethic she enthuses. Very, very impressive service.

I can't understand why they are demanding details of our finances before we even view a property - any property!! They claim it's a Covid precaution - yet it gives them an unfair amount of information to enable them to push you to higher levels of offer - very very unethical..... Jeremy Collins, I can't reply to your response so I've edited my review to address your points. You say: 'Unfortunately we still receive many requests to view properties from individuals who have no intentioned of buying....' So, you have just admitted that you are using a medical situation to screen finances? And it is false to say that agents require proof of funds at the point of offer - this is usually required once an offer is accepted. You also do not offer any reassurance (unequivocal committment) that you do not pass on details of a viewer's finances to your customer so they can misuse that information. This is all highly unethical and I think the ICO would be interested in your inappropriate gathering of financial information (in pretence that this relates to health in some way) and your potential misuse of this, and lack of guarantees around the use to which it will be put.NegativeProfessionalism

If you're in need of a mortgage, I highly recommend using Farrell Heyworth Preston's mortgage advisor Anil Parmar. He helped me massively as a first time buyer with everything I could possibly need. A fully comprehensive and personable service and a very down to earth and honest guy, who couldn't do enough for me. I'll definitely be using him again for all of my future mortgage needs. I highly doubt you'll find anyone better. Thanks again for all your help Anil. Top man!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
