Unnecessary charges for buyers

Beware. If you happen to buy a property from them. Each person will have to fork £48 ID checks. That usually done by solicitor as part of their package. While they need to verify.i don't see the point of extra payment. I would say go get that money from their customer ( seller of property)

AWFUL experience, choose another agent.

AWFUL experience. I was moved into a house that had not been thoroughly checked by the estate agent, so there was no ventilation in the bathroom (legal requirement), a missing fire alarm, broken glass, the property hadn't been thoroughly cleaned, no working freezer, no security alarm... the list goes on. I had to go into branch a number of times, emailing for months on end, was told by a maintenance team member to 'forget it'. I managed to end my tenancy early which cost me a lot of time and was very stressful. They now are making no effort to attempt to get my deposit returned, so I'm having to formally raise a dispute. This is months of unnecessary stress. Save yourself the pain, don't rent from them.

Very disappointed in Reed Rains…

Very disappointed in Reed Rains Evesham, sale of my house took far longer than it should have due to their lack of due diligence (which they claimed was there strong point) sale fell through twice, I had to push them for communication every week and all they kept saying was “we have put a call in? We have sent an email” Best bit was with in 30 minutes of Me telling them I had exchanged I received their bill!!!Would not recommend unless you are prepared to wait and chase them every step of the way

Everyone at Reeds Rains in Grimsby were brilliant especially Sophie and Jess. I put the house on the market and it sold straight away. It was my divorce that made the process far slower but they were amazing and kept in touch. They were so nice. Thank you for everything 😊

Ineptitude, arrogance and dodgy practices.

I used Reeds Rains for two years or so whilst renting out my house in Sheffield. I chose them as I believed (wrongly) that they were a professional company with a good reputation. The work they carried out was to a mediocre standard - they’re essentially a middle person between you and the tenant and take your money for the pleasure. They paid rent when they felt like it. You couldn’t get hold of anyone when you needed to. That sort of thing. Ultimately, you’re fielding phone calls and sorting various bits and pieces out yourself. I’d advise anyone to think carefully about using an estate agent these days to manage their property - especially Reeds Rains. The real issues for me came when my tenants moved out at the end of April 2020. The tenancy was due to terminate on 12th May 2020 and they were technically liable for the property until then. I did not receive my keys back from Reeds Rains until 12th May even though it had been vacated two weeks earlier for this exact reason. Reeds Rains also provided me with documentation and emails confirming the tenancy would terminate on 12th May 2020. I asked them to chase the 2 weeks outstanding rent from the tenants and a further £52 for damages. Now, bearing in mind this money could have all been deducted from their initial bond, Reeds Rains instead decided to alter paperwork and return the full bond to the tenants. I received an email, that had clearly been sent to me accidentally by an employee, which had the exact same wording as previous paperwork confirming the tenancy date ended on 12th May 2020. However, the date had been changed to the end of April. They tried to explain this was an ‘administrative error’ but quite clearly couldn’t be bothered to chase the tenants for the money I was legally owed. Reeds Rains back peddled, passed me from person to person (I must have spoken to 4 or 5 members of staff who passed my case between them). Smoke and mirrors but fortunately, I’m not easily confused. Unlike the people at Reeds Rains lettings. They’re either inept or wilfully lying. Anyway, they waived the money for the final inspection they expected me to pay for… the one where the inspector left lights on overnight. They wouldn’t make up the difference in rent arrears despite it being their error and paperwork clearly being altered after the fact. Imagine this, a company changing paperwork posthumously to meet their agenda. I emailed regularly to chase up discrepancies and money I was still owed - eventually, they just stopped replying. A reputable company failing to pay a customer and then just ignoring them. Great customer service. You can imagine my surprise when in 2021, Reeds Rains were still sending me invoices - despite the fact I’d not been using them for a whole year. I have the emails and letters to confirm my account of their services. Pure ineptitude, arrogance and dodgy practices from this well known company. Avoid.

Highly recommended.

We had to sell my mums house after she passed away suddenly. Jack and Jeremy made an awful experience so much easier. We live 350 miles away and they took care of everything: the viewings, valuation etc and kept me constantly informed. I can't recommended them highly enough. Professional, courteous and very approachable. I found their charges more than fair.

Great service with patience and a welcome sense of humour!

I sold my parents' property in Sheffield with Reeds Rains Dinnington. I dealt with Carly, Andrea, but primary Elizabeth March as my personal contact. The sale was not straightforward, but at all times Liz was courteous, fair to both parties and had an all-important sense of humour. She and they are a credit to the company and deserve tremendous praise and thanks.

Dont use in house solicitors. Be warned ⚠️

Decided to put our mothers house on the market. Back in june . When someone wanted to buy it . we was advised to use there solicitors oniell patient solicitors from MANCHESTER not local which was strange. . Well the buyer was a cash buyer so should be straight forward i thought. Well here we are week 7 and no further forward. Tryed calling them to query time put on hold for eternity asked for several call backs nothing . So went through estate agent and guess what no help. Just told to sit and wait . Well its all good well but when you have no where to live after house is sold and you cant put your name on a lease until you get a date . Well how long does a no chain sale take . Me i thought weeks not this shet show by both parties on this . I would never use a in house solicitors again . Never . Stick to local firms not call centres .especially after reading the reviews about the solicitors.

Reed rains gosforth Newcastle upon tyne, terrible service, I offered for 1 house on grange road recently didn't forward my bid, or not even get back to me. After a week house just been sold which made me really annoyed rang them but couldn't get any satisfactory answer so looked like they had preferences which makes that branch very very unprofessional.

Customer should come first

Asked to view a property they said it will take five days then they said if interested it will take four months for the tenant to leave and purchase the property and would only accept a very inflated price I don’t think they are interested in selling the property or that’s how they made me think whoever is in charge of this company needs to get a grip because there staff don’t seem to have the company’s interests first,very disappointed at the service

Used Reeds Rains Congleton branch as lettings agent

Used Reeds Rains Congleton branch as lettings agent (first time landlord). They have been absolutely abysmal. Impossible to get someone to call you back or answer emails. Don't explain anything and just send random forms or documents with no cover email or explanation and then a really rude follow up email asking why you haven't signed and returned yet. Also caught the person showing prospective tenants around my property being incredibly rude about me and telling them private details about my work and travel - this could enable anyone scoping out the property to return and actually burgle the place. Plus it is just incredibly unprofessional. The branch also placed tenants without telling us anything about which tenants they were considering even though the only referenced one of the tenants (it was a couple) and when I complained told me I had signed a form allowing them to act for me and they could put anyone in and didn't have to let me know anything beforehand. Second month in the tenants have already missed a rent payment. Avoid at all costs!

Liverpool office is a disgrace

Liverpool office is a disgrace. Don’t return calls, ignore emails. Tell you lie after lie When you chase them up the person you originally spoke to is convenient off sick, ask to speak to the manager and they are convenient not in the office either. Staff are just rude every member of staff. Actually told me someone had left yet I seen them in the office the following week. They are a joke and you feel like they just sit there thinking of ways to upset people just horrible.

Will update complaint progress.

Did not see me or try to contact me for a viewing appointment when I was parked outside for an hour. Proven by the tenant and car tracker to have been there twenty minutes prior to appointment and forty after. Initially told (not a direct quote) 'It's one of those things, nothing we can do about it'.In advance, produced an extensive document and proposal for the owner to decide whether or not my circumstances made me eligible to even apply for the tenancy. Not read or passed on by Alistair in the Chesterfield office, who over the phone was clearly reading my script for the first time. Potential wasted time, travel, other opportunities and costs.Complaint lodged, (they are members of the The Property Ombudsman service)At this point I cannot recommend a landlord or tenant to trust the level of their competence in applying customer services.Will update complaint progress.UPDATEReeds Rains asking me for personal information and more details of the case via TrustPilot. Do they have so many formal complaints in one day at Chesterfield that they cannot keep track of them?

Abysmal company

Given 1 star but would give zero. Awful company. Our letting agents for 6 years. Passed all house inspections and never missed a rent payment. We were evicted in May when the landlord decided to sell the property which was fine. Reeds Rains offered us no properties to help us relocate. 3 months after moving out we are still waiting for our deposit back but are being told the landlord is making a "claim". They have given us no details of the claim, will not let us contact the landlord directly and despite the landlord not returning their correspondence, will not help us with the deposit holding company to return our deposit. Pemberton branch. Little more than daylight thieves.

Was super getting me a flat and helping me out and was super when living in the flat. Give notice like I was meant to moved out handed keys back cleaned full flat before moved out, left the flat in the same way the flat was left for myself. Get a email 2 month later telling me that I owe them £1450 because of damages and also because of wallpaper falling off walls.. even tho I didn’t once decorate in that flat and the carpets was already dirty when moved in. They was things already left in the house when I moved into the property and then I get told I left them. I asked them if they had a invoice for when they moved me into the house for the person to ignore my email. My washing machine blew up when living in the flat phoned them up told them about it I got told to get rid didn’t get any help getting a new one like they said they would! Got my own so taken my own with me when I moved out and got told I apparently stole there washing machine when the washing machine was left in the flat blew up and they was told about it. I then try ring someone about the situation and no one phones I have taken photos of the flat when I moved out the property of what state it was in and they don’t want to know. Bridlington branch!!
