TrustpilotSkipton branch
Skipton branch in North Yorkshire were very helpful and very good with staying in touch regarding a couple of gruelling issues we faced, purchasing our first home.
I would definitely choose these if selling/renting in the future!

GoogleWould highly recommend Bradleys Estate Agency in Brixham. They always kept me informed with prompt feedback on all viewings. My sale was handled in a professional and friendly way. Special mention to Karen, thank you.

TrustpilotWhere do I begin with this sly estate…
Where do I begin with this sly estate agent?
Buying a house is stressful, even more stressful during a time of inflated prices. Fortunately, we were willing to pay 65k over the asking price to secure a house in best and finals on Alwoodley Lane. The first issue was Dacres didn’t send staff around when we sent the first bank to value the property (like other agents do) which is incompetent from their side. HSBC said the property was overvalued and not worth more than £550k (we were trying to pay £615k) Virgin bank said the same. While in the process of trying the third bank, totalling to over £1000 in valuations, Dacres lied about supporting us with the sale, relisted the house and sold to another buyer today behind our back and against written agreement.
We have a 7 month old baby, we’re over £1000 out of pocket and due to leave our place in less than 1 month time.
What a disgusting way to handle a sale.
*EDIT IN RESPONSE TO AGENT*
The statement about my complaint being incorrect is untrue and they are still lying.
If we were told viewings were happening and that the vendors were taking new offers we would not of paid for a third valuation. As stated in my original complaint - We have this in writing that the house was taken off the market. We also have in writing that the vendors from the vendors themselves that no further offers were to be considered until we had done the third valuation. Your secret agenda that was not communicated with us is disgusting.
We have spoken to numerous agents who have said during this particular market they have been sending staff around as banks are resisting inflated prices. Perhaps you should think about this.

Danielle, we are very disappointed to read this negative review and that you feel we have acted anything other than professional and in our client’s best interests. The points which you raise are factually incorrect, and we would be more than happy to discuss these with you in more detail. In response to your concerns a) It is not common practice to accompany a valuer to a property. Surveyors are instructed to work on behalf of the bank’s interests, and any influence from an agent would be highly unprofessional. b) After two down valuations and waiting nearly three weeks for a third valuation still to be arranged, our clients took the decision to re market the property. It was neither our client’s, nor our intention, to see you in a difficult position. Our clients needed to do what was best for their own situation. You were kept fully informed of the remarketing and the reasons behind it.

TrustpilotI'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!

TrustpilotBingley 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.

TrustpilotIlkley 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.
Carol · 12 April 2021
Agent replied · 23 October 2024
We are disappointed to hear your frustrations but please note that it is the sellers’ decision to take offers through to best and final offers and like most estate agents it is not our practice to disclose third party bids to other interested buyers, hence the privacy involved in sealed bids. If you would like to discuss this further please do not hesitate to contact us.

GooglePROPERTY PURCHASE.... This has been my first dealings with Bradley's Estate Agents, and I would definitely recommend them to all.
The staff at Brixham, have been pleasant and courteous and most helpful in every aspect.
From corresponding with not only the seller but both solicitor's, to forwarding documentation off to my solicitor for me, to keeping me regularly informed.
All in all.....I found them very professional in everyway.
On a final note, a special THANKYOU TO KAREN. Thanks for your support Karen, I couldn't have done it without you !!

TrustpilotPoor Customer Service
Telephoned 4 times before I managed to get through. Left a voicemail - no call back. When I finally managed to speak to someone they stated that they were not doing anymore viewings despite the property only coming on the market yesterday. I was a cash buyer with no chain but they were not bothered stating everyone is a cash buyer. Rude!!
Kash · 2 February 2022
Agent replied · 23 October 2024
We are very sorry to hear you are disappointed. In this instance we were told by the property owner that they did not want any more viewings irrespective of the buyer’s position. Please contact us at marketing@dacres.co.uk and we will ensure your requirements are fully registered so you benefit from being on our mailing system. The current market is very busy and we understand that can be an immense source of frustration for buyers but that does not take away from the high standards of service we aspire to and which are reflected in our overall service rating.

GoogleI know Estate Agents get a bashing ... and to be fair there are a few that deserve it. I have to say though our dealings have been brilliant with Sam and Nicky at Bradley's in Brixham.
We moved just as we were coming out of lockdown and there were a few issues with the property but everything was manage professionally, they always called and arranged everything we needed and gave use a really good service.
Extremely happy and would recommend the Brixham branch for anyone moving to the area!
