GoogleWorst Agent Experience - Salford Branch Only
I’m a satisfied Reeds Rains customer and have had great experiences with other branches, but Nick Bleasdale at the Salford branch is one of the worst agents I’ve ever dealt with in this company.
Given only 3 hours’ notice for a viewing on 31st Jan. Arrived at 12pm as instructed but:
- Never told it was an open viewing (10-12 people there)
- No access code provided for secure building entrance
- No contact number given
- Waited outside 10 minutes until someone let me in
Emailed Saturday afternoon expressing interest and asking about deposit-free option. No response until Monday - 42 hours later - just “property has been taken.”
Travelled over an hour each way for nothing. If it was first-come-first-served, why wasn’t I told at the viewing? Complete waste of time and money.
Zero transparency, zero professionalism, zero respect for tenants’ time. Nick Bleasdale’s service is appalling compared to other Reeds Rains branches I’ve dealt with.
Extremely disappointed with Salford branch specifically.

Hi Asher - I am glad to hear that Nick has booked you a viewing at short notice, this is the customer service I expect from my team as can be seen by the 5 star reviews we regularly receive. Our contact details are on the emails that we sent to you which other viewers used to contact the branch and I arranged different pick up times for viewers that attended late over the phone whilst calling Nicks mobile. Apologies if this contact number was not visible enough for you. Customer service is very important to me so I will be looking into your comments further to see if there is anything else we can do to ensure everyone received great customer service.

GoogleWaste your time letting you view properties they will not rent to you if you receive housing benefit. Instead of pretending to not discriminate , just be upfront and deny a viewing . Also was told properties went to other viewers and they are both still advertised 2 months later .
Since you have replied I'd like to add you stated in emails that either id pay 1 year upfront or require a gurentour. I have no debts and a 914 credit report . You only accept benefits with either one of those conditions as you stated via email .

Hi. I am sorry to hear of your experience. However we do accept housing benefits on all our properties. I think there has been a misunderstanding as your application could have failed for many different reasons and I can assure you it will not have been due to being on benefits. Please can you contact the branch so we can discuss further and explain the situation. Ben Eastham, Branch Manager, 0161 737 4828

GoogleExtremely disappointing experience.
Communication was inconsistent throughout, with different information being provided at different stages of the process and important details only becoming clear much later down the line. As a buyer, this created a huge amount of unnecessary stress, uncertainty and wasted time.
I found the service lacking in transparency and professionalism, particularly around expectations and timelines, and ultimately lost confidence in the advice and information being provided.
Would strongly recommend getting absolutely everything clarified in writing before proceeding with anything through this branch or not buying through them at all.

GoogleVery slow and poor communication. I constantly have to chase up to get information regarding the keys to the property and there's constantly excuses.
Property was supposed to be ready to move in November, it's currently 6th of December and we still don't have keys or tenancy agreement.
Excuses with property needs work, property needs certificates, tenancy team is sending agreement over shortly, we're chasing the tenancy team...
Meanwhile I'm loosing money because I have to pay to my current landlord extra rent, new property landlord is not getting paid because agency is not capable to send tenancy agreement.
Whole process is slow, communication is poor, if you do not chase daily, you'd not get any information at all.

GoogleCourtney Senior has been an absolute pleasure to work with as a Lettings Negotiator. As a tenant, I’ve experienced excellent service from him throughout the entire process. He was professional, approachable, and always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. His attention to detail and genuine care for both tenants and landlords really stood out. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a seamless and stress-free rental process.

GoogleThe lettings team at Reedsrains Salford office have exceeded my expectations with their excellent, knowledgeable , and helpful prompt delivery of service.
It’s not my first time to let out a property through an estate agent. When I approached Reedsrains at the Salford office, I expected a good professional service. I was pleasantly surprised by the top class professional approach, excellent and thorough administrative efficiency, and excellent results in getting both properties let out. And at the asking price!
So impressed was I that instead of just an introductory service, I’ve changed it to a full management contract. And they have not disappointed.
Special thanks to Adrar and manager Steve.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

She took care of every detail with professionalism and efficiency, making everything much easier than I expected. Sophie was always available to answer my questions and guided me step by step, ensuring the process was as smooth as possible. Not only did she work to find me a good tenant, but she also made sure all the paperwork and legal aspects were in order. Her dedication and excellent service make me highly recommend this agency, especially because of Sophie’s professionalism and personal touch. I am looking forward to our continued relationship together. Thank you for making everything so easy!

GoogleThis is a real shout out to Sophie and Courtney who managed the transfer of my property from a different company to Reed Rains. The transition was seemless and the property was rented out in no time. They kept an open communication with me through the process and were easily contactable when i had questions or doubts. Really important to have this sort of communication when the LandLord is additionally overseas. Credit to them indeed! I look forward to working with them and their organisation. Very impressed I am !

GoogleHad the house on the market for 2 months with Reeds Rains and got nothing, switched to Hills and they had the house sold within 2 days without them even posting the house up anywhere! One of the agents also admitted to stealing and opening post from another property but justifying it saying the house is empty. There is so much emotion when selling houses so please be careful who you trust, these people will have the key to your house!NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

Hi Elen, I am sorry to hear of your disappointment regarding the junk mail you found in your property. As a service to our vendors with empty properties we remove junk mail for them and forward on any mail as requested. This can save our vendors hours of their free time when they have moved far away from the property.
