holding my deposit for more than 2 months without reason. Extra charging for key delivery day!

very very unpleasent interraction, delaying the return of my deposit for no reason. Made me pay extra day of rent for making me return the keys in an office outside the city.... Now just holding my money without reason and kept telling me, we will sort it, we will sort it. Honestly I never heard of, or saw, a worse agent!!!

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were dissatisfied with your experience.

To clarify, the tenancy agreement requires keys to be returned to our branch at the end of the tenancy. When the keys were not returned on the agreed date, a member of our team contacted you to explain that rent would continue to accrue until the keys were received. We appreciate that this may have been frustrating; however, this is standard procedure and was not applied differently in your case.

In relation to your deposit, we were awaiting instructions from the landlord as part of the end-of-tenancy process before releasing the funds. Unfortunately, the landlord was not responding to our requests. To avoid any further delay, we proceeded with the release of your deposit. We received the required details from you late on 17th June, and your deposit was processed this week.

We understand that waiting for the return of a deposit can be stressful, but we have to follow the appropriate processes to ensure that both parties, the landlord and the tenant, are given the opportunity to discuss any proposed deductions.

Kind regards,
The Reeds Rains team.

Really quick sale

Really quick sale. Valuation spot on. We were kept informed throughout the process. Steve well informed of current market conditions in the area. Matt amenable and friendly. Adele did lots of chasing on our behalf. No complaints from us.

Reeds Rains Blackpool Emily McNeill

Reeds Rains Blackpool

I would highly recommend Emily McNeill at Reeds Rains Estate Agents.

Emily has helped me enormously with both the letting and sale of my flat, and throughout the entire process she has been professional, thorough, and exceptionally supportive. She consistently went above and beyond what was expected of her, happily assisting with forms, paperwork, and gathering information, even when it wasn’t strictly part of her role.

Her customer service skills are outstanding, and she combines these with excellent negotiation skills and a wealth of knowledge about the property market. No question was ever too much trouble, and she was always approachable, responsive, and willing to help.

Emily’s expertise, dedication, and genuine commitment to her clients made what could have been a stressful process feel much more manageable. I am incredibly grateful for all her hard work and support.

Thank you so much, Emily. Your help has been invaluable.

Confused

Disappointed I enquired about a property in Huddersfield to be told an offer had been accepted, they took my details anyway, I told them it was a cash purchase.
I passed the property this week it’s still up for sale but bids over an amount,which I’d have bought if they could have been bothered doing there job and contacting me.
On another property I placed a offer on I have now seen it sold for what I offered six weeks previous ,again nobody could be bothered getting back to me on this property( it was for quite a significant )amount, this was the Halifax branch I’m begin to wonder if it’s jobs for the boys
Since bought other properties elsewhere

Recent update I was wrong about the Halifax branch I was misinformed about what it sold for I have found out today it went for a lot more than I offered. I will contact Halifax branch to apologise, hands up to my mistake

I am sharing my terrible experience…

I am sharing my terrible experience renting from ReedsRains Salford. I am hoping this helps intending tenants and give landlords an idea of what tenants are likely to go through when they give ReedsRains Salford their propoerty to manage.

I indicated interest in viewing one of their properties and my request was swiftly acknowledged and I did my viewing, sadly there was more to this propoerty than meets the eyes in just a few minutes of viewing .

I went through with the referencing process and was successful. Nick confirmed a move in date and I informed my previous landlord/agent, giving them 1 month notice as per their request.

Reedsrains had a whole month between when I finished my referencing and my move in date. In my head, what could go wrong. I packed up our lives in bags and boxes, paid for movers to come in on my move in date to move my stuffs. I then reached out to Nick a day before to confirm a time for key pick up as the movers needed to know and boom, Nick responds to me saying electrical certificate has failed and we needed to move our move in date. No apologies, no prior information, if I didnt send that message asking for time for key pick up, no body cared to reach out to inform me. Above all, no apologies (I want to believe that when you go through customer servive training you learn a thing or two about empathy).

Confused and not knowing what to do, I reach out to the movers who insist we pay an additional sum (50% of the moving fee paid to reschedule the move as it was past the 48 hr window). The agent for my old apartment was set to pick up their keys aswell. I went to the office, but Nick was now on leave and Courtney was having to handle the case.

I informed her of the situation and she made me aware that there was nothing that can be done, we had to move our move in date, no compensation for money that will be lost no alternate acommodation. Because I wasn't sure why in all of this no one was giving an apology I had to demand one from courtney who eventually gave them. Next, I asked to speak to their manager but he already left for the day, this was way before closing hours so I insisted they call him on the phone.

After all was said and done, Manager Ben eventually said we could bring in our furniture and bring back the keys to them. This was the only way for us not to lose our moving fee or have any issues with our current agent/landlord. We did this and had to sleep in the most uncomfortable state with two children for two nights while we waited for the electrical certificate and EICR issue to be resolved.

Nick now back from leave, straight to business no apologies for not doing his job. Final day to pick up key, I let Nick know I would be in the office in an hour to pick up the key, there was no word about the office being closed. I get there with my children in an uber, in the rain and the office is closed. With me moving, and dealing with children, I did not see an email saying the office would be closed, I mean I just spoke to Nick who didnt mention anything and wasnt expecting an email within that same hour in the middle of my move.

I had the uber drive us to the house, get out our stufs and leave them in the rain running to safety with my 2 kids under the rain. I asked that the key be brought to the house which was a few blocks away and NO, they made sure we came back to the office to pick them up.

Zero empathy
Zero accountability

Now in this beautiful acommodation, and our ordeal continues, damp wall with sewage smell, fallen blinds, door falling off. No one felt it was necessary to fix these visible issues before we moved in.

Tara at Reeds Rains is awesome at her job

I've recently sold a property through Reeds Rains Estate Agent Catford branch, the estate agent I felt with was a lovely lady named Tara. Our sale had a lot of ups and downs and it took a little while for us to get to complete the sale. If it hadn't been Tara and her attention to detail, excellent communication, professionalism, and support during the sale my wife and I might have just pulled out. Tara and her work ethnic is the only reason we stayed and because of that we have now completed a sale on a second and third property. Should we ever need any help or just to ask a question Tara was always there and for that we are both extremely grateful for everything she did, truly she went above and beyond the call of duty to make sure we understood what was happening, but most of all, that we were happy. I would definitely recommend Reeds Rains and Tara to friends and f family if they ever need to sell or purchase a property. BIG THANK YOU from me and my wife, great job.

Had a valuation from the Rothwell…

Had a valuation from the Rothwell branch a complete joke as there was no similar houses to compare and it was meant to have dropped in value by 25k ! Had to chase up and call in the branch and still no further forward with an accurate valuation would not recommend

Reeds Rains at Guisborough. The best estate agent.

Reeds Rains at Guisborough are super efficient, friendly and kind. If they say they will do something you can totally rely on it being done. All their staff are great and so it is perhaps wrong to pick anyone out, but Cathy is extraordinarily efficient and very kind as well as having a charming manner and a realistic attitude to the complications that inevitably arise particularly with period houses.

If you’re looking to buy a house

If you’re looking to buy a house, do not go with this company, will happily show you around houses that are sold subject to contract without stating that before hand, cancel viewings at the last minute, know nothing about the houses you are viewing and just generally provide poor customer service.

Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you were disappointed with your experience.
We also appreciate that cancelled appointments can be frustrating. Whilst we always try to avoid this, there are sometimes circumstances beyond our control that mean a viewing has to be rearranged or cancelled. If you would like to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to get in touch. Sophie & team.
