GoogleAstoundingly awful.
While the people I have spoken to on the phone sound genuinely friendly, the operation processes at this branch are horrendously disorganised.
I was scheduled to see a flat, arrived on time, only to discover that the tenant hadn't been reminded about the visit (arranged a week earlier). With a 5+ hour round trip with a small toddler, I travelled from the outer reaches of London to be there, only to be told "sorry for the inconvenience, I'll try to do something for you" and then never heard back from them. No response to email, no phonecall to reschedule, no apology.
That said. The estate agent I did meet, was a decent guy, with lovely manners, but had been enlisted from the rentals department as there was nobody else available. This wasn't even the person I was supposed to be meeting, which suggests that the telephone confirmation I initiated, must have reminded them of the meeting.
Many of the estate agents were on holiday, including the one to whom I'd originally spoken. I slipped through the cracks of their flimsy operational procedures. However, and this is the worst part of it, nobody has taken ownership, or tried to rectify the situation. Absolutely everyone I have been in contact with, conveniently is passing the buck. Lazy.
As a property owner trying to sell through Red Door, I wouldn't be happy to entrust my assets to such a disorganised operation. No matter how much of a seller's market this is, this sort of estate agency seems to rely on fluke, alienating their own customer base (reading the other reviews too).
As a buyer, I think customer service is great. However a nice smile and a polite word can only take you so far at the surface. When things go slightly awry and everyone runs off "scatter!" you stop and wonder how they would react if something more serious were to happen.
Those who cannot be trusted in small matters, cannot be trusted in large ones either.

GoogleThis company have managed my property for a few years, and I have no complaints at all. I've always had responses to queries/concerns quickly, be it by email and/or phone contact, with specific mentions for Stephanie, Caroline and Sophie. The company have been very attentive to my tenant, and likewise to me as the landlord, something that is much appreciated being an "accidental landlord".
Furthermore, Red Door Homes kindly took instruction to sell my property with the existing tenant in situ, and have handled the transaction professionally, marketing the property well, arranging viewings, and overall have made it incredibly stress free for me. So on both fronts, (managing a rental property on my behalf for a few years and then selling the same property) I have been very impressed and highly recommend.

Googlethis is one of the worst companies in the medway area. my sister rented a place from them and it has been one big problem or the other. they don't return phone calls, they don't do any repairs, they make appointments and don't keep them. she was without hot water and heating for over 3 months and they didn't want to fix it. She lost half of the electricity in her house and they told her they were under no obligation to fix it. The bathroom has a leak in it and they have refused to fix it. I don't know how anybody in their right minds would use them. Tenants beware!!

Hi Lawrence, thank you for your review. The reason that you had to fight to get your deposit back was due to the fact that you left the property in a poor state and we had to get it professionally cleaned. As a tenant it is your responsibility to return it in the condition it was let to you. Please also remember that these reviews are available for future landlords to see that you as a tenant do not leave the property you rent in a good condition and that RedDoor Homes ensure that bad tenants are held responsible for their actions. Thank you for the opportunity for us to show that to other clients.

GoogleI had a very comprehensive and informative valuation visit last week from Luke of Red Door Homes who provided me with examples of similar properties in my area and even in my road that have sold recently and what they sold for - no pushy sales talk or pressure to sign up straight way either. This has made me feel more confident about taking the next scary step of putting my house on the market.

When we then sold our property they were so helpful, following up with our buyers and solicitors and keeping us informed every step of the way.
