Reputations are not built overnight
In Referenceline's view, this track record is more important than the ratings. Don't be impressed by a few old reviews which may not be representative.  Look for firms with a commitment to asking for feedback - good or bad - from their customers.  We recommend that you look for a track record of ratings and reviews in at least 9 of the last 12 months and that you should not be too concerned about an isolated negative review.  Ask the firm for their side of the story.
 


 
Code of Practice
Businesses have a legal responsibility to treat you fairly, but it's often hard to know what questions to ask or what standards to expect.  They are the experts and you should be able to rely on them to help you make decisions.  These questions explain the commitments that this business has made to follow a code of practice and they will help you understand what you have a right to expect.

Sellers: Offers: 100%
SELLERS Did the firm confirm all offers in writing (including email)?
 
Sellers: Marketing: 100%

Buyers: Offer: 100%
BUYERS Did the firm accept your offer without attaching any conditions (such as that you should arrange your mortgage through them)?
You can see how many customers have said "Yes" in answer to each question, but please don't expect 100% in every case.  Nobody's perfect and some customers may not be completely sure about the answer.  It's more important that you understand these questions and discuss them with the business so that you both agree what good service means for you.  A responsible business will be happy to explain the details to you and it's always better to clarify these points upfront to avoid misunderstandings later on.

3 bed semi, heath hill, telford.

"I bought and sold through this company and have used them a number of times as I like to move about, I find the knowledge of the staff great, I have recommended them to friends for selling a house close to half a million pounds and they sold it after a year of being on with another agent!.

I have in the past tried to use another large agency locally to myself as they were offing a really cheap rate, they didn't sell the property and this led to me using Harwoods and im glad I have found them.
I prefer to use an agency who only has a small number of properties as I find they need to sell them, I found with the large agency that I was just another property and they would just sell the easy ones, I suppose using a smaller company it makes it more personal and I felt they new me and my situation better.

I also let out a little house and they have let it out over the last few years and I have always had great tenants so its a plus on that side for me too, I suppose im rambling now but I cant praise the people I dealt with enough and love my new home, until the next one!

3 bed semi, 190''s, wellington telford

"Lack of communication to vendor of this property even though we kept them up to date.
Upon moving in house was in a mess, lots of rubbish left, egents showed no interest and told nothing to do with them. Very much a "we've got our commission and sale gone through, nothing to do with us" attitude."

"The company were extremely unprofessional and didn't return any of our phone calls. Due to a significant lack of information provided I ended up paying over £2000 on repairs for subjects which were allegedly covered in a HIP pack. The agent and sales advisers were your stereotypical Del boy cowboy like salesmen and I will never use this company again or recommend them for use by someone else"
