Very professional

Very professional, I have dealt with Alison Goodison from the Chapeltown branch and Josh Walker from the Hillsborough branch, they have listened to what I need and advised me accordingly, and have let my property within days! I am very impressed, they also followed up with other services they offer, and rang back to ensure I was satisfied and have kept me informed every step of the way, great service, I have read some of the negative reviews on trust pilot but have not experienced this myself, I wouldn't hesitate in recommending them to others

Disappointing and Frustrating Experience with Reed Rain Plaistow

I recently had a very unsatisfactory experience with Reed Rain Plaistow while attempting to purchase a property. The process was fraught with miscommunications and a lack of professionalism that ultimately led to a great deal of frustration.Initially, when I contacted the agency, I was asked to provide all my personal information and proof of funds. I informed them that my husband would be viewing the property on our behalf, and was advised to have him call directly. However, when he did call, he was told he couldn’t view the property without my details, despite me having already provided them. This initial mix-up should have been a warning sign of the confusion that was to follow.On the day of the viewing, my husband's appointment was nearly disrupted by a last-minute call to change the time, which was impossible for us due to his work commitments. During the viewing, the agent Greg was uncommunicative and only responded when I directly questioned via video call, despite my husband being present with him. My real disappointment began during the offer process over the Christmas period. After placing an offer, I received an out-of-office reply from Dea and was instructed to email the main branch. Despite doing so, I received no acknowledgment or update, leading to uncertainty and the need for further follow-ups. I telephoned and spoke to Greg, who sounded like I was a bother for calling to ask if my offer had been received. Once Dea returned, there was some back-and-forth over the offer, and I submitted the figure she suggested, which was eventually declined. I even increased my offer significantly above the asking price, only to be informed later that day that another offer had been accepted. Surely an estate agent would give an option to increase to give the seller the best price. I have since read other reviews on another platform that they have done this to other buyers through this office. The entire process felt underhanded, leading me to believe that there was a preferred buyer from the start. The lack of transparency and poor communication have left me feeling that Reed Rain Plaistow is not only unprofessional but also dishonest. This experience has been a complete waste of my time and has significantly impacted my view of their business practices.

Very very painful renting experience so…

Very very painful renting experience so far and still not moved. There's always something else that needs to be done. They never call back when they promise to. They withhold important information. I just don't trust them anymore. Not even sure I can ever move my family into their new home. Now looking elsewhere. My stress levels are sky high due to Reeds Rains.After the reply from Stuart: thank you, thank you. This is the first time in 4 weeks of pain and frustration that someone has actually said SORRY! Such a simple word with so much meaning. You guys are experts with your processes, but to the detriment of the human element. Your customers are all human. Don't ever forget that !I haven't received a sorry from the agent yet for not returning calls and lying, and withholding information though but this is a good start. Thank you Stuart.

Paul · 21 September 2018

Agent replied · 23 October 2024

Hi Paul,Sorry you're unhappy with the time it's taken, but we do need to make sure everything is properly processed at the beginning of the tenancy to try and prevent difficulties further down the line.In this case, we received two tenant applications on the same day and the landlord took a few days to decide which to proceed with. You had a change of employment during the reference checks and, unfortunately, this meant we needed a little more time to conduct our tenant checks.We have now fixed the move-in day, and contacted you to confirm this.Stuart

The worst customer service ever

The worst customer service ever. I rented my home out through them, they allowed pets in my home after I had specifically told them no pets. They let one tenant sub let a room, and did nothing about it. They let a tenant move her boyfriend in, 3 years down the line I'm still getting letters from bailiffs and debt collection agencies. They have been no help whats so ever getting it rectified. Calls were never returned. The photos they took when tenant moved out, where inadequate for the company dealing with my claim against the bond. Even though I paid for them to fully manage the property when ever there was a problem they could never find a contractor I had to find my own. Stay well clear

Certainly NOT worthy of an 'Estate…

Certainly NOT worthy of an 'Estate Agent service'! With all the New and upcoming, Far CHEAPER estate agents on-line like 'Purple Bricks', 'YOPA', 'Tepilo', 'Doorsteps', etc, etc one would of thought Reeds Rains would provide a Far better, indeed Far CHEAPER service than what happened to us!? Reeds Rains 'Customer Relations Manager' Ignored the whole complaint Below :- 1. They totally ignored their then employee “J” first visit with us, his appalling discriminatory behaviour towards our beliefs etc, etc. They readily dismissed this as entirely irrelevant!2. We did NOT say ‘There was not a Vat element to this fee’ We said “J” and others said the Total at the end would be Only £1,700 and No more! This was the Agreement.3. This is the First Time We had seen this Document Reeds Rains say had a part to play in my sale!4. We also phoned Reeds Rains as suggested by your employee “J” to Clarify this with management etc at Reeds Rains. They clarified the Total amount would be asked to pay would be £1,700. and No More!5. They chose to ignore the fact that Reeds Rains Asked us to conduct the viewings ourselves stating because “No one is in the office twas available for the viewing!” We felt Literally pressurized into it! We had to sell our Property to prospective buyers and indeed We alone showed the Property to all who came around even the buyer. No one at Reeds Rains conducted the viewings and even with the buyer Reeds Rains Never told us the viewing was to take place with the buyer. We were kept entirely in the dark even when they turned up on our door step unannounced!This is Not the service anyone should expect is it not?6. Reeds Rains ignored the fact that the Floor plan made by Reeds Rains was entirely Wrong and we had to take considerable time redrawing it to how it should of been.7. We were forced to take the pictures because your staff put the old pictures up the pictures when I purchased this property years go when we purchased the property before we renovated it. Reeds Rains used some of the old pictures! In Their response to our complaints they conveniently chose to ignore these facts.Our Case is with the Property Ombudsman because Reeds Rains chooses to ignore our complaints but still demand money for their far from professional service!******In Reeds Rains response they say, we say honestly *****:1. While Reeds Rains use the convenient excuse that the offending ‘Employee no longer works at Reeds Rains’ his behavior was appalling and one that simply should not be brushed under the carpet and ignored with regards to our complaint! The Impact was felt and it proved extremely upsetting!So there you have it a company who readily dismisses the abuse just because ‘This employee no longer works at Reeds Rains’ !2. There was No ‘Confusion’ between us! In Good faith a “Total of £1,700!” was clarified which Means “£1.700!” in the real would clearly not Reeds Rains world.When I purchased a Car the Price I was told all in, the total amount was what I paid not £340 More like with Reeds Rains!As for the middle document they say appears ‘proving at etc £340’ ? We had never seen this alleged document or signed our name on it! 3.. ' when one of the viewings was booked by our central call centre.' That was the integral Viewing where the eventual buyer turned up without any notice, and unaware of them coming I almost did not open the door! As We stated at almost all times any viewings We were told would we do the viewing from the office at Reeds Rains, because of some excuse Reeds Rains couldn't! In Actual Fact WE sold our property with Reeds Rains They at Reeds Rains were to busy to conduct the viewings! 4. Floor plan was ready to be posted on -line already as were the Old out of hate pictures BOTH wrong!We thankfully spotted them and had to painstakingly redraw them and retake the pictures! Again We did the work of Reeds Rains and We sold our Home Not Reeds Rains!

We apologise that you have been left unhappy with your experience. We are investigating your complaint through our formal complaints procedure and you will soon receive our final viewpoint. However we’re happy to briefly respond here.We train all our staff to behave with professionalism and good customer service. That said, as the member of staff you refer to above is no longer employed by Reeds Rains it is difficult for us to get absolute clarity on the conduct during the first appointment, or regarding the photographs used.We apologise if there was any confusion around the fee, but we have on record our Estate Agency Agreement, signed by you, stating that the fee would be £1,700 + VAT.We understood that you were happy to conduct your own viewings. We apologise that there was miscommunication when one of the viewings was booked by our central call centre. However we’re glad that this viewing went ahead as it would prove to be the eventual buyer who completed the property purchase. As is our normal process, we shared the floorplan with you before we commenced the marketing of the property. We gratefully accepted your amends and were happy to implement these before marketing the property.Brad Ogden, Regional Operations Director, Reeds Rains

Unprofessional Amateur Standards

My family, booked time off and flew from London to view a rental property in Shotley Bridge with an appointment booked with these agents for this morning. Having arrived yesterday they phoned the agent to confirm the appointment only to be told that the agents had already accepted another client for rental and taken a deposit. Reed’s Rains didn’t communicate this to my family prior to them leaving London - indeed no effort was made to contact them - no answerphone message - nothing. As a result the family have incurred the cost of flights and accommodation in addition to the disappointment. These agents have made no offer to compensate my family and fobbed them off with a “sorry” I therefore suggest that if you are either a buyer or a seller, that you spread this experience to others as an example of Reed’s Raine’s standards in dealing with clients whether they are buyers or sellers. You may also wish to further consider whether to use them or not! Addendum Having had a response as seen here from Reed Rains, I responded giving my telephone number a week ago, and I am still waiting! It’s the same issue as the original complaint - lack of communication, no call, no answer phone message. Their consistent poor performance should be a worry to any potential customer! Be advised.

Stolen money from me

Stolen money from me. Use this firm for letting of a property and they use the tenants deposit to protect there own cost. Not mine. Deductions made from my deposit without my authority. Also done exactly the same to a friend who they also let out there property. The property was turned in to drugs factory and scumbags withheld money which they had no rights to. I will never use them again.

DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY!!!

DO NOT GO WITH THIS COMPANY!!!I was a tenant in one of their properties and the landlord wouldn't complete any maintenance within the property leaving me with several different issues. I called multiple times and nothing was ever done since I moved in till i moved out. TENANTS RIGHTS! You don't have any with this company may aswell live on the streets. Horrible customer service, Horrible people, Take advantage of your being young. Can't even complain as its so difficult to find a complaints procedure.

Terrible property managers

I hir d reeds and rains to manage a dental property and oversee the letting. It has been a nightmare!The tenant severe the notice period whicj they missed for two months and only noticed when the rent stopped coming in. Now we are late at listing the property for rent by two months and loosing rental income..Moreover, R&R's compliance department has been chasing the tenant for defaulting even when he vacated the property after providing appropriate notice.It has been a terrible experience both for me the owner and the tenants

Inhabitable

As soon as you’ve paid your deposit and started paying rent, you won’t get much communication from them. It is basically Impossible to get any maintenance work done - we were left with leaks, mould, lights not working, carpet ripping up, drafts and more. It takes almost a year to get someone to come and look at the problems, then nothing is done despite chasing every day. You ring and email daily but get no response.Glad to be out of there. We were once without a working boiler for over 2 weeks in December. It took me threatening legal action for them to follow some sort of protocol. Even then we were passed around different people who didn’t seem to know how to handle the problem. It gets to the point where it is just unsafe. And after all that, the landlord took the whole deposit to buy a new front door which was not like for like. The property had a lot of potential but it’s not well managed at all.
