I have never understood why people are so derogatory about estate agents having had reasonable experiences before but I have to say how appalled and very disappointed I am in the service from Tony & Ryan at Redhill. Initially they were very keen and kept me informed, giving me feedback etc but after 3 weeks or so Tony stopped returning my calls or communicating with me. I had to chase feedback constantly and the few viewings I did have after that time smacked of desperation in that most people didn't seem that interested. At no point did anyone say it was priced wrongly in fact I was encouraged to keep things as they were. They took some terrible photos and had to use some from the online agency I was with before (through which in hindsight delivered a much better service). They promised numerous times over several weeks that their photographer would come round again but each time they said he was coming he never turned up. Tony it transpires was over at another branch most of the time selling their houses and not mine. Ryan didn't seem interested in selling my house himself but in fairness he did give me feedback on the viewings I had after that. However I by this stage had become very frustrated and decided to take the property off the market with a view to remarketing in the autumn. Unfortunately things got worse then when I requested the keys back where they said several times over a 10 day period that they would drop them on on such as such day at such and such a time and each time this did not happen. After the fourth phone call to Ryan I got annoyed (the first and only time I was ever impatient) and he then decided I couldn't have the keys back unless I came to pick them up and then hung up on me (although I did suggest he might be an idiot for being so inept as to not return my keys after several appointments to do so, in all honesty - well come on enough is enough). When I rang him back he was still saying that I had to come and pick them up until I asked him if he was refusing to return my keys to me as per our agreement. He actually become quite aggressive at that point and told me I didn't deserve for him to spend his time coming to drop them off and it was only when I asked him if he was refusing to return my keys and that I would be officially complaining that he relented and said he would return them this evening. I am totally at a loss as to why people are both so inept and then cannot hold their hands up when they are in the wrong time and time again. They had already previously apologised to me for the shoddy service they gave in relation to selling my house and then they compound it in this way. I am a reasonable person always treat everyone with the same respect I would expect and then as a customer I am treated with a complete lack of regard, any semblance of efficiency and to top it all off withholding my keys because I had the nerve to take my property off the market with them.
I am very disappointed because I actually liked these people and trusted them to provide a good service, they let me down badly and I will view all other agents tainted with this experience sadly.
