I emailed this useless company 3 times…

I emailed this useless company 3 times over a period of three weeks to inform them that one of their properties had a wildly overgrown hedge and garden that was making the locality look a mess, and also impeding foot and mobility scooter traffic on the pavement. They didn't bother to reply ,so I reported the mess to the city council and wished them good luck in ignoring their emails ! Hopefully the council will do the work and bill these clowns !

A pleasure to deal with, always willing to pick up the phone and answer any question big or small. Lisa has been a god send throughout our sale, in difficult times and with no fault of Hunters she has been there and pushed us through to completion. If we contemplate another move Hunters will definitely be the agent we use.

I'm a landlord and Hunters of Castleford have dealt with my rentals for the last few years. If you want an agent that goes the extra mile then look no further. Nothing is a problem and they deal with the whole process perfectly. Big thanks to Beth Allan who is very helpful everytime and does a fantastic job.

I want to give a big shoutout to Andy for his fantastic service! Our thermostat had been out of order for the past three days, and he managed to fix it in just two minutes. Quick, efficient, and hassle-free! Excellent service from Hunters Estate & Letting Agents, Castleford. Highly recommend!

Great Service, Lisa and Sally kept me informed throughout quite an exasperating chain of solicitors. Definitely recommend.

My experience with hunters as a first time buyer was very positive. They were timely in communicating, proactive in sorting things, and very supportive & transparent about the process which was really appreciated as a buyer. I had tried to complete in another proper with a different estate agent, unfortunately that purchase fell through but it did give me an appreciation for the way Hunters do things - it was night and day compared to the other firm.

Do not use for rentals

Do not use for rentals. There is a cost of living crisis of which this company is taking advantage of it with overvalued properties and fees. I paid a holding fee which equates to one weeks rent whilst going through necessary checks. I was truthful that I had a little adverse credit from over 5 years ago but I had an amazing reference from my current landlord of 10 years (of which they knew him as he uses them for some of his properties) plus a steady job. It was taking this agent over a week to get back to me about anything, never returned calls and I was growing concerned. Unbeknown to me, if you also don’t earn three times the rent of the property, you will also fail their checks as they will deem you unable to afford payments. I tried arguing that I could afford it because even after rent, I still had over £1k left and it’s a little unfair to set such judgments on people. They even agreed that they knew I could afford it but it wasn’t up to them but down to their policies etc. I couldn’t get a guarantor which prompted them to say didn’t I have a partner who could move in to bump up the financial figures or guarantor me. Therefore I ended up losing my ‘holding fee’ which is a considerate sum and if this company does this to 10 people a week, they are making a packet for nothing. What gives them The right to put people over a barrel like this?!!! It’s extortion!!! Especially with the current climate and people needing homes and struggling with increasing prices of food, gas and electric. A house is a necessity, people need to live and be safe but this agent seems to be very discriminatory and setting unrealistic benchmarks.

As a first time buyer I cannot recommend Hunters Castleford enough. From the first call I made regarding the property I felt looked after and appreciated their knowledge. In particular I would like to thank Hollie Saunders and Lisa Horsley, both have been outstanding. They made my home buying journey feel personable and the phone calls were greatly appreciated. I would definitely use them in the future!

I would never ever used this Company…

I would never ever used this Company again. They failed to tell my tennent I was selling up, because of mortgage increases, I even even emailed them. Heard nothing so I assumed they had told the tennent. Two months later when I thought I'd have my property back, they told me they hadn't told the tennent. Also the tennent flooded my bathroom and cost me £2000 to fix!

Hunters have been fantastic from the very start, helping me find the perfect property to rent and being on hand to help with any queries I have had. They are efficient, helpful and ensure a swift, hassle-free move. A special mention to Georgia and James who go above and beyond and are always so friendly and happy to help. Cannot rate them highly enough. Thank you Hunters

I cannot thank Lisa enough, we have had such tough ride (not fault of hunters) with problems throughout our chain. Lisa is not even our agent and has done above and beyond to help us throughout. We totally rely on her and her weekly updates ☺️

Amazing service provided by the Hunter's Team at Castleford! From the initial valuation by the very professional Keira, through to final completion of our sale, the whole team were exceptional. Danielle, Mehak and Lisa helped to make the whole process smooth and efficient; they kept the solicitors on their toes and liaised between all parties where needed, to help keep everything on track. Their expert advice made the house moving process headache free and Mehak even went the extra mile, to help us with the handing over of keys (what a life saver)! We highly recommend this team of lovely ladies to anyone who is thinking of moving home - you won't be disappointed!

Hunters Estate - Demi May

Demi May was my first point of contact who communicated effectively and efficiently between me, the buyer, and the seller. Demi was amiable, astute listener and professional in the way she facilitated the next steps of the purchasing process. Her effective communication skills enabled me to secure multiple viewings with ease. I would strongly recommend Demi May to any company who is looking to appoint someone reliable, kind and proactive.

Went for a viewing with James recently and couldn't have had a more professional person show us around. There was not one single question he could not answer and for more detailed information we asked for he had this within the hour of the showing being conducted. A true credit to the company, this person will go far.
