TrustpilotHighly recommend Reed Rains Kennington
We can highly recommend Reed Rains Kennington to sell your property. It was a difficult decision to sell my mother’s house, and they supported us throughout. They kept us informed at every stage of the process and gave good advice when needed.

TrustpilotAvoid these idiots
The phone went off in the pub . Free review. Up came a piss poor figure 400k less than houses in the same road . Avoid avoid avoid these idiots. I would have given zero stars if I could . Amateurs
We’re sorry you’ve chosen to rate our instant valuation tool with 1 star. The online valuation is intended as an initial estimate only and is generated using available market data and property information. We appreciate that, in some cases, the estimate may not reflect current values in a specific area or account for the unique features of an individual property. For a personalised valuation, we would recommend arranging a free, no-obligation, in-person property valuation. Craig, who has been working in the Clevedon property market for over 20 years, would be more than happy to visit your home and provide a detailed valuation. Many thanks, Reeds Rains

GoogleWe recently completed a purchase with Reeds Rains and were looked after really well by Alison in the Castleford branch. She always got back in contact if I phoned with queries,and held my hand through the process. She made timely interventions with other parties, such as solicitors and the vendors, to keep things moving along . She acted as both a bridge and a 'piggy in the middle' with patience and calm, and I was very glad to have her along on the journey. Many thanks to all in that branch, but especially to Alison. We are moving in very shortly and can't wait to start a new life in the area.
Hi Heather thank you for the review. Glad to hear that you will be moving in soon and wish you both years of creating many happy memories there.

TrustpilotOverall an awful experience
It started off great, we rented a house in huddersfield through them and they were responsive and helpful until the person originally dealing with our move went on holiday. Then our move was transferred to emma, which again started off great however, she started to make us feel like an inconvenience whenever we called and asked for updates as it was getting close to our move date and things were not ready. Admittedly it was a quick move but we were told it was no problem. However, by the day of our move we still had no paperwork or keys despite the fact we were told we would have them by the day before at the latest, which was then changed to midday on moving today however we did not get the keys until 5pm which caused us a lot of stress and inconvenienced us a lot as we had people waiting to help us move so we just had to wait all day. When we went to the office on moving day to speak to Emma as she was just brushing us off on the phone, her attitude was awful and she was clearly irritated by us being there. She also went back on herself saying she never said the keys would be ready by this point, which was a blatant lie. She did not care about us or our move at all and I think that is what bothered me the most.Some of this may have been down to them having a new system, which I was sympathetic and understanding about at first. However, Emma's poor attitude and the fact she just didn't care made me become annoyed more quickly than I usually would have. Also, due to the new system they sent me someone else's tenancy agreement which included the tenants and landlords personal details, which must be major violation of privacy laws and made me feel insecure about the privacy of my information. When I brought it up to them they brushed it off like it was nothing. However, despite all of this, there was one positive experience which was all the handlings we had with Ben. Ben took over after Emma went home and he was kind, reassuring and caring, made us feel a lot less stressed and annoyed, as he actually explained why it was taking so long and what he was doing to speed it along a bit. He was a breath of fresh air after such an awful day.Overall I would not use this estate agent again. The staff need to work on keeping information private and attitudes towards tenants however, Ben was amazing and a saving grace that day.

To gain a better understanding of the situation I have sent you a request for more information so that we can look into this further for you.

TrustpilotSlumlord! No valid GSR for over 2 months!
Poor property management and lack of experience and/or under qualified staff across the agency. Slum landlord or ‘slumlord’ of current property who neglects and breaks every clause he’s bound by in the tenancy agreement. Left me and my family with young children without valid gas safety certificate for over 2 months, considerably a major breach of his and the agents legal duties. Reported to the HSE, to which the agent finally got in touch to arrange this to be carried out. To little too late in my opinion as this could have disastrous consequences. Gas safety certificate flagged a repair that needs to be carried out on the boiler, does not stop the boiler from working but the landlord immediately stated ‘if the tenant wants this repaired he needs to get this done at his own expense’ to which I stated that I was not paying for any part of the boiler to be repaired if this is required as it is simply not my fault or responsibility it is down to poor maintenance on the landlords behalf, landlord then stated that any repair to the boiler would be taken from my deposit. A void and ridiculous statement to make as anything to do with the boiler is his responsibility as per the tenancy agreement. Landlord is a tyrant and the agent supports his ludicrous comments and dictator behaviour.
Hi Josh,We sincerely apologize for the distressing situation you've encountered during your tenancy. We take your concerns seriously and are committed to addressing them.To thoroughly investigate this matter, we will be sending you a Trustpilot request for more information.Regards,Reeds Rains

TrustpilotCompletely useless!
Completely useless!! Extremely frustrated with the Chapel House, Newcastle branch ..Reed Rains have let our property allegedly to 2 adults & 1 child but there are (many) more people in the house than stated. I consider this a breach of contract. Reed Rains have thrown it back to ourselves claiming they’ve completed their side of the agreement, REALLY!! What they mean is we’ve got our money so we aren’t interested in the slightest about your property. I wouldn’t neither use nor recommend Reed Rains to anyone. The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Run don’t walk to another estate agents A little advice and assistance would of been greatly appreciated!
Hi Tracy,Thank you for providing feedback. I am sorry you feel the service we have provided has not been to the standard you would expect. I can assure you that all relevant checks where done on the prospective tenants, and we can only act on the information we are provided regarding who will be living at the property.

We use Reeds Rains to manage our properties and they are dreadful. Had a major issue with one of the properties as it was allegedly inspected and was in a filthy state with flooring ripped up & no bath panels but was deemed in a good condition. There were at least 60 bin liners thrown in the garden and has cost us a fortune removing it all. We have been paying a management fee for non management . They are very good at over charging for small jobs doing and pass the buck if they’re is a problem. The problem is with head office in Southampton and no reflection on the local office & staff

TrustpilotMost useless company award 2020/2023
One of the most useless companies I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. Almost every single member of staff we have spoken to about various issues have been so dismissive and dim witted that their answer to us not having a functioning washing machine for 3 weeks, was “well can’t you use a dry cleaners?” In an area where the closest one is over 15 miles away and closes before we can finish work meaning we could only do washing between their slim to nine weekend hours.We got that little “hiccup” out the way and thought thank god we don’t have to deal with them again… until a mass leak in the building has ruined most of the bathrooms, ours included and wouldn’t you know it. Ours is the only one AFTER 2+ YEARS. To still not be done. There is damp. Mould. The floor is literally soft and rotting. There are silverfish now taking up residence in the soaked flooring and the bathroom smells like damp. (Oh and we know now thanks to the builders showing us the upstairs bathroom they done, that there is no water proofing what so ever in the bathroom so it will keep getting worse until we fall through the sodding floor. We have told red rains about this on what must be over 12 times so far and they have done 0 about it :) once again I could imagine their response would be along the lines of “well there’s a seaside 30 miles away, why don’t you just use that”. Again. Words cannot describe how useless they have been and at this point in time we are considering just taking legal action thanks to the 4 visits we have had all saying “oh that’s bad, I’ll inform my manager” 😂 like that will do anything. Useless.
Hi Scott,I'm sorry to read your review, if you could please provide us with more information so that we can look into this matter for you. The request will come from Trustpilot.Regards,Reeds Rains
