Unfortunately, i read these reviews quite late and I am in agreement with all the negative opinions about Bridgfords Withington. We tried to buy a flat, but when we told them that we have our own mortgage advisor, the communication stopped. When we tried to get updates, they would try to discourage us to continue. They went on making an offer for our maximum budget, despite only having 1 additional buyer who offered 25k less than us. Dishonesty/ lack of transparency and totally unprofessionalism, especially Richard/ Hammad. I am happy I did not use their services, and I now select properties which are not in their portfolio. Quite sure the seller has received a lower offer as well, which is a shame as the flat was superb. Avoid!

GoogleIf you are a tenant avoid at all costs. Some examples from my time in a Brigfords-managed property:
- Entering and photographing my home when I wasn't in without my consent
- Agreeing to let me review the images before they were posted online, then just posting them online without telling me
- Asking me to take time off work for repairs, only to tell me on the day the contractor is now coming the following day and I'll need to take a second day's leave, and then a third because the work wasn't finished

TrustpilotStalybridge branch over promised under achieved
Put my property up for sale with them all they do is over promise, the staff have no idea, couldn’t accept any feed back and very patronising, everything was a struggle after 3 viewings in 7 months took house of the market with them. Absolutely useless as a manager of 40 years if they worked for me they would all be unemployed.Stalybridge branch over promised and under achieved.

GoogleI am extremely disappointed with the level of service I received from the Stockton Heath branch. I recently contacted the branch to arrange a viewing of a property which I was very keen on. My initial viewing was arranged for the 8th March which was then cancelled because the house was being redecorated. Another viewing was arranged for the 15th March which was cancelled again for the same reason. Rather than booking another viewing, I was informed that they would be in touch to arrange it. I had received no phone call by the following Friday, the 23rd of March and so I thought I would call them. The property was ready and a viewing was arranged for Monday the 25th. The next day, Saturday the 24th of March I received a call telling me that an offer had been accepted and there would be no more viewings! I was also advised that my details had not been stored on the system and that there was no record of any viewings prior to the last one being arranged! I feel cheated and lied to. I believe that the property was earmarked and that the staff there have acted with prejudice. Do not trust this branch!
Response to Mark:
Hi Mark
I recently posted a complain online to which you responded.
The details are above:
I believe that the staff in this branch have acted with prejudice as I cannot think of any reason why my details were not stored on the system the first time around.
It leads me to believe that the property was earmarked for another client and that my viewings were postponed until the preferred client had been to see the property. Why else would my details not be on the system?
When I originally called to arrange the first viewing I was told that there wasn’t much interest at this stage and yet before I even get to see the property an offer has been accepted.
When I called to complain to the Manager, Alison I was told she would investigate which member of staff it was that had originally arranged the viewing as I couldn’t remember the name although I believe it to be Antonia.
Here is the email I received from the Manager.
Good morning Bruno
I have spoken to my staff at length today, I have checked through the notes on the system and we have no evidence of your initial enquiry for the property which you mentioned. You then called the branch on Friday and spoke to Antonia to arrange a viewing for 10 am on the 25/03/2019 you then called back and spoken to Lynsey to rearrange this time to 2 pm which was then booked into our diary. In the meantime a viewing was booked in for Saturday morning with the applicant wanting to proceed, we then gave the landlord the feedback and he asked us to proceed with the applicant.
This is the standard procedure and as we work for the landlord we act on his/her request, the landlord would have been aware of the viewing booked in for yourself as he would have received a message when the viewing was booked on Friday. However, he still confirmed to proceed with the application received on Saturday.
Kind regards
This email does not confirm anything. In some respect, it’s telling me that I’m a liar!. A member of her staff is obviously withholding information from her or she is choosing to ignore the way I have been treated which gives me no confidence in her ability to manage. Her staff are either poorly trained in how to book an appointment or acting with prejudice. I believe it to be the latter as I’m pretty sure they both know how to book an appointment onto your system as it was done for the last viewing.
The fact I am writing this email means I am not prepared to let this lie without a full investigation regardless of whether I have lost the property or not. Every person should be given an equal chance when it comes to putting in an offer for a property especially if they have waited nearly 3 weeks to do so!
Regards

GoogleMyself and my husband have just finished the process of letting a property from Bridgfords - From start to finish we dealt with Antonia and she was nothing but brilliant, whether it was dealing with our (excessive!) phone calls or answering our emails straight away. Once we viewed the property she was patient whilst we went through the application form with her there and then, and even when a couple of 'difficult' guests arrived to the group viewing she handled everything cool, calm and collected. Antonia knew how eager we were to move into the property and got everything turned around in record time for us! We can't thank her enough for making the process as easy and quick as it possibly could be.

GoogleIn the last year we had 2 barn conversions to sell and knew they could be difficult as such houses are quite niche. However Bridgfords were absolutely fantastic for us, finding the right buyers and negotiating the best prices on our behalf. All of the staff were helpful at Stockton Heath but Lyn stood out as exceptionally helpful, professional and totally on the-ball, we couldn't have asked for a better service.
We are now looking for a new property and once again find that Emily, Anna and Lyn from the team are consistently there for us in helping to find the next place.
Highly recommended.

Very please with the service and result of selling my mother’s house via Bridgfords Swinton. Mike was knowledgeable and efficient. His sale price estimate was 20% higher than another local firm but he managed to achieve it. He also arranged to visit mum in her care home to complete the paperwork. Happy to recommend.

TrustpilotBranch staff good, conveyancing beyond horrendous
Started the journey of selling my flat with Bridgfords well, great listing, quickly found a buyer, then Bridgfords conveyancing service took over and was incompetent at every turn. 6 months on from accepting an offer I’ve had to end the sale as my mental health couldn’t handle anymore of the misleading, lies and gaslighting from their conveyancers. Was so bad even the branch staff said they were embarrassed at how bad it was.

If I could put 0 I would. My cousin gave notice that he was giving up the flat due to family and health issues. Before he was able to remove his things (within a week) they have taken his belonging and given only some clothing back. They have stolen a family air loom watch (Rolex) , cash that was for Christmas, not given back any expensive trainers .. they have drip fed some things back since like the tvs and yet to receive the Xbox, they have photos of his stuff on their report which they haven’t given back. They are not to be trusted . They are proceeding to trade non ethically and illegally. Reports to police have been made. They prey on vulnerable people

GoogleAppalling service.
The lady who came out to give a rental valuation, Sam, was friendly enough but told me that later that day, she would be sending me an email with the fees that I would be charged. She was also unsure if I would be able to leave furniture in the property as there are no fire regulation stickers on the items and she said she would find out and get back to me later that day to let me know if there would be a way to get round this.
Over a week later, I'm still waiting for a reply.
Whilst at the house, she also advised me to potentially sign up to schemes (extra costs) which are totally unnecessary.
She also advised me to remove things from the house which would incur costs when the object is for me to make money.
Other organisations have got back to me and none of the above are an issue with them.
A very lacklustre service and one I won't be using.
