DO NOT USE THIS ESTATE AGENT

DO NOT USE THIS ESTATE AGENT. On the 18.10.2018 I was appointed to see an apartment at 41 Mill West, Sowerby Bridge, HX6 3JH. (I hope the landlord is reading this)We agreed a time of 16:45 but due to traffic my sat nav advised I would be eleven minutes late. I called the office at 16:25 and after a few minutes of waiting for somebody to answer the telephone I was greeted. I advised the lady I was running late by eleven minutes and was told the agent showing me around cannot wait for me because she finishes at 5pm. I asked why would it be booked with only 15 minutes to spare for viewing and the reply I received from a manager at hunters was “you only get five minutes to view the property. The manager I had the displeasure of conversing with was named Nicola Thompson. She is rude, cocky and full of self importance with no regard for customer service or a potential tennents interest or the landlord of the property who contributes to her salary. I feel I had a lucky escape. I hope her superiors read this as well as the landlord who owns the property I was going to view. She needs to enroll in a customer service role and soon, personally I’d fire her but unfortunately this is what happens when you allow the inexperienced and possibly inadequate into a junior management role. I will post on every review site I can because of this women’s attitude with the hope her bosses react and teach her how to behave towards potential and existing customers.

I can't complain about these letting agents as I signed an agreement not too so that we could get some of our deposit back...

I can't tell you about my experience with a recent let as the only way I could get our deposit back was to agree not to complain about any aspect of the tenancy or the process of charges negotiation. I can tell you to be very careful about using this letting agent. They issue a notice to quit towards the end of each assured short hold tenancy rather than let the tenancy run-on so that they can raise the rent, knowing you are in situ and charge new fees for the tenancy agreement. Scrutinise your inventory and the check-out report in detail. Do not suggest you have any cause for complaint.

Hunters Barkingside

Hunters Barkingside Mark Sherer and his team of staff at Barkingside branch went above and beyond to help sell our house in Clayhall Ilford. I cannot recommend them enough A*

We had so many issues

We had so many issues in our rented property and they never came and sorted them due to this we moved out. We had left our house in a very clean state and only the problems we had when we moved in had been left they tried to take our full bond off us and more. They are horrific and I wouldn’t recommend using them and I certainly won’t be ever again.

We chose Hunters to manage our letting flat because of their reputation for fast, efficient and courteous service. We were not disappointed. The flat was let quickly to a high calibre tenant and the rent arrived in our account every month on time. I would highly recommend Hunters.

KIRSTIE KAY

This review is for Kirstie Kay for being very helpful and performing her role to a high degree of excellence.I most note John Adlam (partner) made a simple request extremely difficult to facilitate and an unpleasant experience.

Great service

Once again guys 1st class service. Always use these guys. Great price. Always polite. Always on time. And the plus is your car engine is started for you so no cold car to get into. If it’s icy the windscreen is defrosted for you. Thanks again 👍👍

Excellent fully managed service. Always kept informed and up to date about matters requiring attention at our property. All staff are very helpful and easy to work with. As a result of this we are at present looking to add to our portfolio with Hunters.

People be alert avoid at all cost like covid. Do not deal with the bradford shipley branch previously Bentleys. Dishonest timewasters that just do not care. They lie and cheat to impress for their own gain. Mis advice vendors to sell to buyers who are friends/associates. Dont waste your time and emotions I did. Wish I and vendors had checked the previous reviews would not have wasted time and money.

Worst agency. They never reply to emails and calls. We had serious issues with damp that they ignored for months. And now they aren't replying about refunding deposits.

Data Breach !

I enquired about a house and have been added illegally to a mailing list. I complained and asked to be removed twice, was told they never added me (though the emails added me 1 day after my 1 ever enquiry to this company) and they have yet to remove me. Companies like this should not be trusted, they are taking your data and will spam you !

Laura from hunters buntingford has been brilliant in helping us find our new home. Great service, very quick to reply to any questions and very friendly and caring attitude. She took alot of stress out of finding a place to live. I could not recommend her enough!

Extremely disappointing sales experience

It is a real shame when ideal opportunity to acquire a family home is missed due to errors made by an estate agent. It later transpires that vendor accepted a lower offer for the sale of his property. The real questions are; what was the cause of those errors? were they really errors? why was the lower offer accepted and higher offer rejected?

Terrible

Terrible. Was booked to view a flat near Holloway Road, viewing cancelled because they suddenly rented to someone over the phone who they sent a video to. Terrible agents, don't waste your time.

We've sold two houses now with Hunters and can thoroughly recommend them...They are a really friendly team to deal with, but more importantly know the local market, negotiate well and make the whole process really smooth & easy!

Worst experience. Full of lies ... They speak so good to get holding deposit and then don't care. They just using the people to get some money. Think twice before paying money

Thank You but No...

Dagenham Branch quoting £420 for a property evaluation. Shocking !! Most of other estate agents are providing appraisals free of charge.

Rude manager (Sarah)

Rude manager (Sarah) - in fact she was slightly violent and very difficult to deal with. No interest in trying to listen, talks over you and doesn’t give any info about property - sadly with current housing market the estate agencies can afford to be disgusting and behave unprofessional and get away with it. Avoid using them to sell

Poor service and follow-up on enquiries

I registered to view a property as soon as it came up and they never answered. When I rang them they fobbed me off as some second class person. They did not bother taking my details for any other properties. To me they are unprofessional.

Don't use them!

We had an unpleasant experience with our local Hunters and now these pests from head office are repeatedly sending us letters urging us to let them take care of our unsold property. We wouldn't use them if they were the last estate agent in the country.
