A terrible estate agent to buy a house via! I had an offer accepted £5k above the asking price and agreed with estate agent to remove the house off the market and agreed not to consider any offers. Deal was agreed and me £600 down after 2 days due to solicitor fees and I got a call today to advise that a further offer had been submitted and accepted. I counter offered again by over another £5k. I thought something fishy was going on as soon as my offer was accepted the sold subject to offer came off the property and in my opinion they were still allowing viewings although they claim and agreed with me that was the case. Very untrustworthy estate agent stay well away from. I can accept they work in the intrest of the seller to get the best price but to allow constant Gaxumping to go on in absolutely unacceptable. Very disgruntled prospective buyer

ATTENTION ALL LANDLORDS
Do not under any circumstances sign a contract with Farrell and Heyworth manage your property, go somewhere else, anywhere else in fact.
The contract locks you into using them and to remove your property from them, which you will probably want to ...

DEBBIE WAS VERY HELPFUL AND PROFESSIONAL. WE HAD TO VIEW THE HOUSE A FEW TIMES AND IT WAS NEVER TOO MUCH TROUBLE. THE CONVEYANCING HIT A FEW BUMPS AND Debbie was always helpful in ironing them out. We completed today and are very grateful...

I have had to make a formal complaint about a reduction in the fee due to their disgraceful service.

I made an appointment with Simon from the Chorley Office for Neil Rogers to value a bungalow.
The time given was 15.00. We waited three hours for a 'no show.'
This is disgraceful and I advise anyone to avoid using Farrell & Heyworth....

I have investigated this matter following your review here and your telephone call to Chorley branch on Monday. It transpires that an error was made when submitting your appointment to our diary system. This meant that I was not aware of the appointment and did not attend which, I can appreciate, has caused you some inconvenience. At Farrell Heyworth we strive to ensure our clients are satisfied with our service. I can assure you that this is an isolated event for which I, and the other members ...

We have rented 3 different properties over the past 3 years and Farrell Heyworth is by far the worst letting agent we have had to deal with.
We had to pay £200 for credit checks, references etc before being shown the contract which would have deterred us from ...
