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.

The team were very friendly and efficient Simon Wilson was brilliant from start to finish he made everything so easy for me and kept me informed throughout the sale as this was a family home of 57years and he was very respectful of this and he was so mannerly and friendly I will definitely use Reeds Rains again.

Criminal organisation

Criminal organisation. Also operate at "Your Move". As a landlord I received fraudulent invoices, months of failure to respond to calls and emails. They turns out they lost the keys and the tenancy agreement. End of contract 29th Sept. Still they haven't shared any paperwork and are still withholding funds in November. Lots of promises from David Tomlinson, not one fulfilled. Avoid.Update: now December, despite the response on here, no reach out or resolution.

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

I have been letting my property through RR for 10 years. Jacqui in the lettings team has provided a friendly and professional service. If an issues arise with the property, she is quick to enable these to be resolved. When a tenancy ends, she ensures a thorough inspection is completed of the property. During lockdown, Jacqui and the team went above and beyond in their roles. Thank you

If I could review this estate agents lower I would. I initially signed for a property in 2021 with a partner - they messed us around for weeks at a time and made the moving in process as stressful as possible which lead to them finally releasing the keys after office hours despite having a moving van waiting all day. Immediately after moving in we had to make a formal complaint due to having to wait over 8 weeks for acknowledgement on maintenance issues. Not something you want straight after moving into a property? Not to mention later going 3 days without heating or hot water in the height of winter.They shut us up by offering to pay compensation of £150 for the inconvenience.However, later in the tenancy the other tenant moved out leaving me, a single young woman, living alone. The landlord, an older gentleman, turned up to the property without notice several times. On one occasion, I granted access to the property for him to review some damp problems, whereby he made multiple inappropriate comments about how my tattoos would look better without my clothes on, and that I was safe going upstairs alone with him. A few days after this, he knocked on the door at circa 7pm at night asking me to go for drinks with him.Being a woman living alone, knowing that this man is aware of this and is in a position of power, I didn't speak out until the end of the tenancy.This landlord then decided to claim over £700 of damages from myself. Luckily, we used the Zero Deposit Guarantee scheme and so they disputed this on my behalf and over £500 of this claim was rejected. Leaving me to pay just under £185 which was settled at the end of 2023.However, over a year after the end of the tenancy, Reeds Rains has just contacted me stating that I owe them £22. A reminder this was paid in 2023, the year that the tenancy ended.I would never ever recommend anybody to use this estate agents, it's a law suit waiting to happen and they clearly don't care about the safety of their tenants from landlords taking advantage of their position nor do they communicate with each other at all and prefer to harass previous tenants.

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. Worst agent in the North East

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. We recently bought a house and these people were unfortunately the acting agent. The vendor wasn't happy with them and neither were we. What a rip -off. Talk about giving the industry a bad name. Charged us £60 to carry out an I.D. check when we were stood in their office with our official documents. No, we can't take a copy, you have to pay a fee and use our app!! So we paid under duress as we wanted the property. The app simply asked us to upload the documents. As if that made any difference as opposed to them photocopying or scanning them themselves. During the next six to eight weeks of the process, we never had one single phone call from them giving us any update. When we rang them close to completing on the purchase we were told they would ring us. They didn't!! I have dealt with other agents as an investor and for private purchases. These people are pathetic and a disgrace to the industry. Don't touch them with a bargepole. Useless!!

I strongly advise against using this…

I strongly advise against using this property management company. My experience with them has been nothing short of dreadful. I was constantly having to chase them for updates on the tenant eviction process. As of June 20th, I was told the matter was "under investigation." However, it wasn't until July 1st that I was finally informed the tenant had vacated the property, with rent paid through May 31st. In retrospect, this means my property sat vacant for an entire month with no notification from the agent. This is an absolute disaster and a complete dereliction of their duties as the property manager.The level of incompetence, lack of communication, and failure to keep me informed in a timely manner is unacceptable. This agent has provided the worst service I have ever encountered. I would caution any landlord against entrusting this company with the management of their rental property.

Wonderful! Really very helpful

You were really very helpful, listened & understood. Some agents just wanted to give a valuation without viewing our home and seriously undervalued what it was worth.The viewings were on time, you obviously know what you are doing as it sold in a week, quicker than we expected.All in all a very pleasant experience.Thanks, will recommend your professionalism to others.

We just moved to Portsmouth recently and rented a beautiful house with assistance of Alice. She is an amazing agent. She did everything she could and she was with us through whole process. She was always there for us everytime we faced a problem. She is so professional and takes her job serious. I just want to thank her again. If you are renting/buying or selling, make sure you visit her first. Fully reccomend.

Selling experience

Everything! I have used a few estate agents over the years and I would say, these are by far the best I have dealt with. The staff are very professional, approachable and very quick to reply to queries. David is an asset to the company, nothing is to much trouble, he is a very hard worker and yet still remains pleasant and approachable. I am a bit of a forgetful fruitcake, but they have managed to keep me on track and everything is going great. The girls I have spoken to have all been lovely. If I were to sell my house again ( which I am never going to) I would use Reeds Rains with no hesitations.

Andrea was fantastic from start to finish during our experience with Reedrains. We have let quite a few properties over the years and I have never received service like this. Andrea was efficient, professional and friendly throughout and really made the entire process painless and smooth. Absolutely excellent, I would recommend without hesitation and hope we can use Reedrains again in the future. Such a refreshing change!

Really awful company to deal with

Really awful company to deal with. They lie many times and avoid responsibility for their incompetence, Integrity is missing in bucketloads but greed is a paramount behaviour. Why this company is allowed to operate as a tenancy management company with utter contempt toward the customer is beyond me. Hard faced liars. Not a thread of sincerity. Absolutely stressful to deal with and will never go back.
