Would highly recommend

Would highly recommend. Staff in at the West Park office (thanks Jen and Amie) were very professional, helpful and did exactly what was promised. Throughout the viewing process they kept us up to date, always had a named contact who was prompt to respond to questions. When it came to completing the sale - we had many issues agents in the chain and solicitors, however Jen and Amie chased up, kept us informed and I felt were always working in our best interests.

Pateley Bridge - Top service

Alison from Dacre at Pateley Bridge was fantastic with our move. She was proactive in finding us our home by reaching out to us whenever a new property that we could be interested in came on the market, she kept us updated throughout and was always on the ball to make sure the sale went through as quickly as possible always one step ahead with the solicitors and seller. 12 weeks in total for the sale to go through …would definitely recommend Dacre and Alison for your house sale or purchase

A disappointing service

Such a disappointing service from Dacres. Getting to the point of having your home valued is a big thing, especially in the current climate. And having worked hard on making significant improvements to the house, the descriptions received by the valuer were unfair, mostly negative and insulting. There was a lot of talking and very little listening. Realistic and constructively critical comments are one thing, insults are another and there are ways in which you can support and guide a potential vendor without making them feel so uncomfortable and upset in the process. Sadly, this isn't an estate agent I would either recommend or use based on this.

Sold house via Dacres

Sold house via Dacres, not a fast process from them, took ages to upload our home on different websites. Sara was the best, more helpful then anyone else there. We been advised the house will be available on different websites inc: Right move etc, on some websites the house not appeared. also been told we will get shoe cover (never got it). been told we potentially can get 200-215 for the house and once we received the first offer of 195 benn told to accept this as we won't get anything better. Not a great service. Not using Morley service again

Bradleys Estate Agents in Brixham are the best agent in the country, I would recommend this agent to all buyers, first time, many time, all time. The primary reason is because the team of Natalie, Emma and David is a thoroughbred team, rather like a fine race horse 🏇 they work quickly and dilligently to deliver what a client needs and are always friendly and welcoming.I have dealt with many estate agents over the years, had good experiences and also terrible experiences. This is the second time I have bought property from Natalie, the branch manager, and she has always helped me find the property I want, she is the best in the business. Thank you Bradleys you are all shining stars 🌟

Great service from Ian Bradbury at Darce Son & Hartley

Ian B at Darce Son and Hartley was friendly and professional. His reassuring manner, mixed with his knowledge and understanding, gave us complete confidence every step of the way. It’s rare to find someone who truly listens and cares, and Ian went above and beyond to ensure everything was handled for us. I would highly recommend Darce Son and Hartley, especially because of Ian’s outstanding service. Thank you for making a positive buying experience.

First class service from the Ilkley office

First class service from the Ilkley office from start to finish! Thank you Vicki Bradley - could not have asked for a better agent. Professional, thorough, discreet and everything done without any fuss. I can highly recommend Dacres (Ilkley) - I could not have made a better choice!!

"I cannot speak highly enough of the professional and personal service I’ve received from Bradley’s Brixham. Natalie has been amazing! I was nervous about putting our family home up for rent as it can be challenging, but from day one, Natalie guided me through the process and ensured that only the most suitable tenants would be accepted. Nothing was too much trouble for her and she personally annd kindly oversaw and advised at every step along the way. Yvonne came to the house to conduct a detailed inventory of the property which took over 2 hours. She was very friendly and helpful and I feel confident that the house will be well taken care of as Yvonne will do the regular inspections. Bradley’s have a thorough referencing system for rental applicants and a comprehensive tenancy agreement. Now the tenants have moved in and the team at Head office will take care of managing the property. As a landlady, I would highly recommend Bradley’s."

Terrible service

Terrible service, unethical and will screw you over as a buyer as soon as look at you. Had an issue with our sale, but they stated they'd keep the chain together. They didn't, they have said they were contacted by someone who found out, but there was no need to do this. We were back procedable by the Wednesday. On the Thursday EVENING they showed the property again, having never informed us this was happening.

I’m actually not moving forward with the sale or purchase of a new home just yet; but David has been exemplary in professionalism and in just being kind and helpful, trying to deal with some complex house buying issues. When I’m ready, I’ll definitely call on his services again…

Sharp Practice

As per the 15+ negative reviews already written about this so called Agency NOTHING has changed. Thank God that due to their sharp practice I a cash buyer was not even disclosed to the seller nor afforded a viewing of the property I wished to purchase. I was told," Don't bother going to the house it's just been sold". I was 2miles from the house on the Date and Time agreed for my "Viewing" !!!! It transpired it was sold the day before and they didn't have the courtesy to tell me nor the owner who wanted a "Cash Buyer" NOT TO BE TRUSTED!!!!!

Great response to my concern.

I recently put a review on here regarding a staff member Anita.I wish to now add that this lady has has acted beyond and above expectations. She came to our new address and apologised for the day I spoke with her.She was so kind and brought us a moving in bottle of Prosecco.Everyone has off days and I think that's what happened as she was so polite and pleasant today.If this is the service you receive I would definitely recommend this company.Thanks again,Dave

Knaresborough office poor service and a bit slap dash

Booked a viewing to see a house and they told the seller I had cancelled the appointment which I obviously hadn't . I turn up to view after driving from Leeds and the seller looks confused and tells me what she has been told but kindly shows me around the property anyway, not sure I would trust this outfit again.

poor customer service, very disappointed

Recently saw a house I wanted to purchase and the estate agent dealing with me was also the vendor associated with 3 other vendors. I was told that my offer was accepted and received confirmation of this. I was advised by the estate agent (vendor) that she and her husband who showed us around the house really wanted us to purchase the house although they had received a higher cash offer. In such a short time I built a good relationship with the estate agent and a couple of days ago she advised me to send all my paperwork over including ID and mortgage offer along with proof of the deposit to secure the house, which was done. Only now have I called back to discuss if there was anything else they needed and the estate agent I had been speaking to ( the vendor) advised her colleague was dealing with my case now, only to find out from her colleague ( the branch manager) that they had decided to accept someone else's offer, (although mine was guaranteed to be accepted) who had offered more and in cash? But they didn’t have the decency to tell me, what’s more, disappointing is the fact the state agent I was dealing with ( the vendor) advised me when I just called someone else was dealing with my case , I think honesty goes a long way and as I said to the branch manager had she of told me this information her self they had accepted another offer I would have not taken as bad, especially when she guaranteed that It was me they wanted to buy the house. When trying to explain this to the branch manager I found him very patronising in explaining the process with his shouting tone of voice and that the estate agent didn’t have time to call me as “ she was too busy trying to clean her desk before 5 pm for her holiday” My gosh that is some level of customer service. Very disappointed.

Many thanks to Natalie, Karen and Lauryn for my recent house sale. When things got stressful near the end, they were always so reasuring, helpful and patient when I called. Special thanks to Karen who went above and beyond to solve issues that came up, looking after me and helping me keep sane!

House purchase in Settle

We've just exchanged contracts on a house purchase in Settle, arranged through Dacres local branch. They've been extremely helpful throughout our whole house-hunting and purchasing process, managing to fit in viewings when we were up in Settle, sometimes at quite short notice. We'd particularly like to mention Andrew, who showed us round several houses, Tom , who responded to email messages when the office wasn't open, Mel, who we spoke to at the beginning, and who let us peer over her shoulder to see the details of a property, and Julia who passed on her local knowledge during our second viewing of the house we're buying. A thoroughly professional approach from all.

I'm both buying a property and selling…

I'm both buying a property and selling a property through Dacres and from the start the experience has been outstanding with excellent communication from Gavin, Sue, Adam and Em! I can't thank them all enough for keeping me regularly up to date, being very honest, fair and balanced in the feedback and getting my property advertised so quickly! Within a day they had 10 viewings and I've had 2 offers already. They have worked the most unsociable hours to help me sell quickly knowing that it is a requirement for the seller of the house I'm looking to buy and have been so flexible in their approach. Customer service at it's best! In all honesty I'd never heard of them before thinking of putting my house on the market, I was given their information through a local Facebook page recommendation - I definitely see why they were recommended! THANK YOU!

Bingley office let down

Arranged for valuer to attend our home, received call that morning saying that valuer had family emergency and could not attend? Having made arrangements to be present not impressed that Dacres Bingley have no contingency plan in cases like this.

Ilkley Office mess purchasers about

Ilkley Office mess purchasers about. Despite us being told our offer was the highest, which was way above the asking price - they wanted us to go to final and best offers using our offer (which we said was best and final when given) as a leverage to up the price. Utter charlatans; no doubt they told other prospective purchasers how far they were off the mark too! We withdrew-purchasers need to stop falling into this trap as no doubt the others left didn’t know the revised situation.
