Neutral. We thought the fees were roughly on par for the area. WE preferred to use a local agent rather than any on-line estate agent due to our not being in the area.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Complaints Procedure

We are committed to providing you with the highest level of service possible, but sometimes, things can go wrong. By letting us know when you have a problem, we can work with you to understand what’s happened and put it right. This easy-to-use guide tells you how to make us aware of your views so that we can address any concerns you may have, quickly and professionally.

The first thing you need to do is contact us and let us know what part of our service you are unhappy with. You can report your concerns to us by phone, in writing by post, or you can send us an email.
We will aim to resolve any issues immediately, however if this is not possible, your concerns will then be escalated to a manager, who will investigate the matter.

Richard Kendall Estate Agent
66 Northgate
Wakefield
WF1 3AP

When we receive your complaint, we will:
• Send you a written acknowledgement within three working days which will outline who is responsible for investigating the issues raised.
• Collate as much information as possible and liaise with the various departments involved to establish all the facts.
• Send a detailed response within fifteen working days, informing you of the outcome and ask if the suggested resolution is satisfactory. If we need more time to resolve your concerns however, you will receive a written explanation for the delay.
All complaints are kept confidential and will be dealt with in a fair and unbiased way. If we do not hear from you within eight weeks of our response, we will assume the matter has been resolved and the complaint will
be closed.

Should you have concerns in the meantime however, please contact the member of staff whose name appears on the letter of acknowledgement.

After receiving our response, if you feel your complaint has not been fully addressed, please let us know and we will aim to resolve the matter for you. Your concerns will be acknowledged within three
working days of receipt and your complaint will be passed to an alternative, more senior member of staff for consideration. Where possible, a final response will then be issued
within fifteen working days. If we are unable to respond to you within this timescale, we will contact you to let you know when we anticipate a resolution, and inform
you of your right to appeal to a third party.
If you are still not satisfied with the outcome, we would advise that you contact our independent redress scheme.

As a Propertymark Protected agent, if you feel your complaint has not been satisfactorily dealt with by ourselves and the redress scheme, you can send your
complaint to Propertymark. Go to the Propertymark website to download a complaint form. Propertymark investigates complaints against members where there is evidence the agent has breached Conduct and Membership Rules. Examples
of this include, but are not limited to, misuse of client money, failure to uphold high standards of ethical and professional practice, and failure to answer
correspondence.
