Great estate agents

Great estate agents. Customer Service was fab. Leah and Tom were both very helpful and kept me up to date and chased solicitors etc. On the day of completion there was an issue with the funds being released and it was late in the day when we got the keys but Tom arranged for them to be dropped off as soon as funds had cleared. I wouldn't hesitate to use them if I move again.

Still waiting for my deposit back after 5 month ! Now saying landlord disputing it.. also waiting on calls back from phill in the office is a joke! Told constantly he’s not there or will call back to never hear from him!

Fantastic service

Extremely helpful and knowledgeable staff. I took their advice on a couple of issues and, as a result, sold my property quickly. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Great service.

We can’t thank Jake and his team enough for their honesty and professionalism on our house sale. Yes there are cheaper out there but in my opinion you get what you pay for and we would highly recommend them for all of the work that they do. After meeting Jake I realised that his heart is in what he does and he hasn’t failed on any measure. Well done and thank you.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Worst agency I have come across

I've rented with some bad agencies in the past, but these guys are on another level. Several cases of mistaken identity - had repair jobs turn up at my door stating my name and house number when I hadn't called anyone.Communicated with us over a move date and then a week before tried to claim we hadn't given notice. Nearly last two months rent as a result, which we had to fight for.On moving out they picked on every spec of dust and blamed us for damages that were already there. They lost email communications from us, which led to issues on the moving out period as above.They promised to fix spelling errors in our names on contract, but then refused and stated it's because our official documentation arriving in the country was wrong - still can't believe that one.All in all a terrible experience... Avoid!

the team at reeds Rains Widnes have provided me with a continuous professional and responsive service over the past few years, moving home and in particular having to rent every year of so is extremely stressful, however Luke in particular reduces these stress levels by keeping me updated, being proactive and always considering my needs as a customer. I would highly recommend Luke and the team for making house hunting easier and more personal.PositiveProfessionalism

We had an outstanding experience with Reed Rains. From our initial consultation, Simon took the time to understand our needs and priorities, making us feel heard and valued. The flow of information was exceptional; we received prompt emails, helpful phone calls, and the online portal provided up-to-date information on viewings and offers. We especially appreciated the regular updates and feedback after each viewing. Kurtis's expert negotiation skills and market knowledge resulted in us achieving our asking price, exceeding our expectations. He is an absolute delight to deal with and a credit to your company, professional, courteous, and friendly throughout the entire process.

If I could give 0 stars I would.

If I could give 0 stars I would.Absolutely appalling company. I will never recommend them to anyone, in fact I advised my friends against renting or purchasing a property with them to the point that their “dream house” is now in the process of been purchased through a much better company. The communication in Reeds Rains is laughable, their lack of communication is really what annoys me. I was renting a property, due to circumstances out of my control I had to leave the property. The terminations team for Reeds Rains. SHOCKINGLY BAD. It’s over 2 months later and I’m still waiting for my deposit back. I was told it would take 10 days. I’m constantly chasing them for the return of my deposit, email after email. Call after call. Nothing. I hear nothing from them majority of the time. The repairs I asked for were still not done by the time I left the property. They are horrific company. I’ve never had a worse service. I might be young but I know my rights as a tenant, a humans and the way they treat me was not right. I’m disgusted. They’ve caused damaged to my mental health, the stress this whole situation has caused me is endless. At one point it cause me to have fear that I could lose my job due to it causing me so many issues. Reeds Rains, if I could I’d stop you trading. No one deserves to be put through what I have nor should someone have to deal with a business like you.

Extremely Disappointing and Stressful…

Extremely Disappointing and Stressful ExperienceI had the worst experience with Reeds and Rains. The property was listed on the market for £850 per month, but we agreed on a rent amount of £800. I paid the advance rent of £800 to Reeds and Rains, and I was instructed to pay the security deposit directly to the landlord. All parties signed the tenancy agreement at the agreed amount of £800.We moved into the property with all our belongings, but just two days later, Reeds and Rains contacted us, demanding that we re-sign the contract for £850. They have repeatedly threatened me and my wife, saying that if we do not sign the contract at the higher amount, we would have to leave the property. This has caused tremendous stress for myself and my family.With over 150 years of experience in the UK market, I never expected such unprofessional behavior from Reeds and Rains. I am extremely disappointed and would not recommend this estate agent to anyone.

Not had a great experience with this…

Not had a great experience with this estate agents, i understand that they are not allowed to tell you that the house is a repossession but the house i purchased had a garage that the estate agent didnt tell me about even though there were garage keys on the bunch of keys they had, that then cost double the amount of solicitors fees. After i put an offer in on the house and i had got a mortgage for it i got a sales memorandum through with all the information on stating that it had 28 days to complete which i was never previously told, buying a house is a huge process and not being told certain things and left in the dark about things is really not professional or great for the buyer so i wouldn't recommend Reeds Rains to anyone or use them again myself. I have also later found out that although the ad for the house sale said Council Tax Band B it is actually a C so, these should not happen as its all extra cash for the purchaser

Disappointing and Frustrating Experience with Reed Rain Plaistow

I recently had a very unsatisfactory experience with Reed Rain Plaistow while attempting to purchase a property. The process was fraught with miscommunications and a lack of professionalism that ultimately led to a great deal of frustration.Initially, when I contacted the agency, I was asked to provide all my personal information and proof of funds. I informed them that my husband would be viewing the property on our behalf, and was advised to have him call directly. However, when he did call, he was told he couldn’t view the property without my details, despite me having already provided them. This initial mix-up should have been a warning sign of the confusion that was to follow.On the day of the viewing, my husband's appointment was nearly disrupted by a last-minute call to change the time, which was impossible for us due to his work commitments. During the viewing, the agent Greg was uncommunicative and only responded when I directly questioned via video call, despite my husband being present with him. My real disappointment began during the offer process over the Christmas period. After placing an offer, I received an out-of-office reply from Dea and was instructed to email the main branch. Despite doing so, I received no acknowledgment or update, leading to uncertainty and the need for further follow-ups. I telephoned and spoke to Greg, who sounded like I was a bother for calling to ask if my offer had been received. Once Dea returned, there was some back-and-forth over the offer, and I submitted the figure she suggested, which was eventually declined. I even increased my offer significantly above the asking price, only to be informed later that day that another offer had been accepted. Surely an estate agent would give an option to increase to give the seller the best price. I have since read other reviews on another platform that they have done this to other buyers through this office. The entire process felt underhanded, leading me to believe that there was a preferred buyer from the start. The lack of transparency and poor communication have left me feeling that Reed Rain Plaistow is not only unprofessional but also dishonest. This experience has been a complete waste of my time and has significantly impacted my view of their business practices.
