I highly recommend Reeds Rains for selling a property

Reeds Rains were friendly yet professional throughout the process of selling my house. They stepped in and helped, when the solicitors were making a stressful situation even more stressful, and sorted things out so that I did manage to exchange and complete on the sale. I'm pretty sure that without Madeline and the rest of the team in the Gosforth office, I would still be trying to exchange contracts and could have easily lost the sale. Thank you all so much

If I could review this estate agents lower I would. I initially signed for a property in 2021 with a partner - they messed us around for weeks at a time and made the moving in process as stressful as possible which lead to them finally releasing the keys after office hours despite having a moving van waiting all day. Immediately after moving in we had to make a formal complaint due to having to wait over 8 weeks for acknowledgement on maintenance issues. Not something you want straight after moving into a property? Not to mention later going 3 days without heating or hot water in the height of winter.They shut us up by offering to pay compensation of £150 for the inconvenience.However, later in the tenancy the other tenant moved out leaving me, a single young woman, living alone. The landlord, an older gentleman, turned up to the property without notice several times. On one occasion, I granted access to the property for him to review some damp problems, whereby he made multiple inappropriate comments about how my tattoos would look better without my clothes on, and that I was safe going upstairs alone with him. A few days after this, he knocked on the door at circa 7pm at night asking me to go for drinks with him.Being a woman living alone, knowing that this man is aware of this and is in a position of power, I didn't speak out until the end of the tenancy.This landlord then decided to claim over £700 of damages from myself. Luckily, we used the Zero Deposit Guarantee scheme and so they disputed this on my behalf and over £500 of this claim was rejected. Leaving me to pay just under £185 which was settled at the end of 2023.However, over a year after the end of the tenancy, Reeds Rains has just contacted me stating that I owe them £22. A reminder this was paid in 2023, the year that the tenancy ended.I would never ever recommend anybody to use this estate agents, it's a law suit waiting to happen and they clearly don't care about the safety of their tenants from landlords taking advantage of their position nor do they communicate with each other at all and prefer to harass previous tenants.

Tremendous service from the start! Currently selling my property with them, & I’m extremely glad I have chose them. Wayne has been more than great through out, he always keeps me updated on what’s going on with the sale even outside of work hours! Extremely professional & trustworthy, I most definitely recommend REEDS RAINS 😊.

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. Worst agent in the North East

Reeds Rains at Chapel House. We recently bought a house and these people were unfortunately the acting agent. The vendor wasn't happy with them and neither were we. What a rip -off. Talk about giving the industry a bad name. Charged us £60 to carry out an I.D. check when we were stood in their office with our official documents. No, we can't take a copy, you have to pay a fee and use our app!! So we paid under duress as we wanted the property. The app simply asked us to upload the documents. As if that made any difference as opposed to them photocopying or scanning them themselves. During the next six to eight weeks of the process, we never had one single phone call from them giving us any update. When we rang them close to completing on the purchase we were told they would ring us. They didn't!! I have dealt with other agents as an investor and for private purchases. These people are pathetic and a disgrace to the industry. Don't touch them with a bargepole. Useless!!

Carol is rude

Carol at the Ashton under lyne branch is lazy and rude. Couldn't really be bothered when viewing a house and was looking at me like I'm poor when I actually purchased outright with no mortgage. When I called the branch to put an offer on a house she took my offer then never called me back. I chased and she rudely laughed at me down the phone saying I wasn't in a position to purchase said house (how would she know this?) so I withdrew and bought another with home estate agents.

Recently went through Reeds Rains to rent a property and couldn't be happier with the service. They kept me informed and updated regularly, and were particularly helpful with any requests I made. A special thank you to Rhian for going above and beyond to ensure the process was as seamless as possible. Would certainly recommend and will definitely be using them again.

Look no more, Nicola, Craig and Dea are your people…

Sold our flat with Reeds Rains Estate Agents Plaistow. We had exceptional service from start to finish, thanks to Nicola, Craig and Dea. Their professional photos were taken immediately after we signed up with them, all of the viewings were handled professional.Nicola from Reeds Rains Estate Agent Plaistow has been excellent. She was professional throughout. She listened and acted to suggestions as well as providing advice and support. The real unique difference to other agents is she was always available working well beyond office hours as she really puts her heart and soul into her business. Definitely recommend to anyone looking to sell their home.

I strongly advise against using this…

I strongly advise against using this property management company. My experience with them has been nothing short of dreadful. I was constantly having to chase them for updates on the tenant eviction process. As of June 20th, I was told the matter was "under investigation." However, it wasn't until July 1st that I was finally informed the tenant had vacated the property, with rent paid through May 31st. In retrospect, this means my property sat vacant for an entire month with no notification from the agent. This is an absolute disaster and a complete dereliction of their duties as the property manager.The level of incompetence, lack of communication, and failure to keep me informed in a timely manner is unacceptable. This agent has provided the worst service I have ever encountered. I would caution any landlord against entrusting this company with the management of their rental property.

Wonderful! Really very helpful

You were really very helpful, listened & understood. Some agents just wanted to give a valuation without viewing our home and seriously undervalued what it was worth.The viewings were on time, you obviously know what you are doing as it sold in a week, quicker than we expected.All in all a very pleasant experience.Thanks, will recommend your professionalism to others.

Reeds Rains (Wilmslow branch) - disorganised and lacking in customer focus

I acted for a family member who had received awful service as a tenant through Reeds Rains (Wilmslow). After signing their agreement and prior to moving in, Reeds Rains allowed the Landlord to remove the sofa and armchair from the Lounge - despite the apartment being let as 'fully furnished'! Therefore the tenants purchased a leather sofa for £749. This was then donated to the landlord upon vacating the apartment. Despite this obvious gain for the landlord, Lavinia Cachon for Reeds Rains Wilmslow then found every excuse to not return the deposit. 17 weeks after the agreed Check Out report, Lavinia sent to the ex-tenants an unsubstantiated quotation from the landlord claiming £1075 in redecorating costs!Due to Lavinia's poor dealing with the landlord, the deposit was held back beyond the miserly 3 months from vacating which is the expiration of any 'protection' through mydeposits. Mydeposits then refused to raise a dispute!Only finally resolved (mostly) by a 'cry of help' to Director level.

It was/is stressful and it took a long time to sell just over 20 weeks but it appears lots of properties took a very long time due to the way the market was/is. But the staff at Reeds Rains were so helpful always. I feel I can call them anytime and ask as many questions as needed . Thank you To stuart the manager . Hanna Lydia and Kerry Thank you all so very much

Diabolical service - Stockton/Middlesbrough

We requested an early tenancy termination with 6 months notice (to leave 2 months earlier than contracted due to buying a new build property). We have lived in the property for 7.5 years and never caused an issue. We are now less than 3 weeks away from moving and NOTHING has been done. Delays on responses from the agents for over 4-5 weeks at a time despite being chased, the house is still not up for relet online yet they are expecting us to be liable for all costs until another tenant occupies the property. The service has been nothing but abysmal. My garden is currently a hazard to both mine and my neighbours children due to a falling down fence in the garden which was reported over 4 MONTHS AGO!!! Again chased numerous times but nothing has been done. An ignition hob that hasn’t worked in the whole 7 years we’ve been here, damp in the bathroom for over a year yet the rent still went up last year given all these outstanding issues. Avoid renting from Reeds at all costs.

Selling experience

Everything! I have used a few estate agents over the years and I would say, these are by far the best I have dealt with. The staff are very professional, approachable and very quick to reply to queries. David is an asset to the company, nothing is to much trouble, he is a very hard worker and yet still remains pleasant and approachable. I am a bit of a forgetful fruitcake, but they have managed to keep me on track and everything is going great. The girls I have spoken to have all been lovely. If I were to sell my house again ( which I am never going to) I would use Reeds Rains with no hesitations.

Wayne Scott is such a professional and genuine person. I live in Australia, but Wayne has excellent communication skills and has kept me abreast of the sale of my property at every stage. I have been delighted with Wayne and Reeds Rains Widnes. An absolute pleasure to have Wayne guide me through the sale. First class in every way. A true gentleman. Thank you Wayne.
