No-one turned up to the viewing

Went to view a property on Wednesday 9th July. I waited 15 before ringing to see if anyone was turning up to show me round, no one did. I then rang the office and they said they had no recollection of my booking. I said I had a confirmation email. They said “well it must have been moved, did you not get told?”. IF I WAS TOLD I WOULD’NT HAVE TURNED UP WOULD I? I won’t be using Richard Kendall again. This is the second time this has happened now.

Mandy Bennett Ossett branch.

Mandy Bennett at the Ossett branch of Richard Kendall was, without doubt, the best Estate Agent if have ever dealt with! She went the extra mile on everything she did & whatever I asked it was dealt with without a problem. I've never had an Estate Agent like it, had some absolute nightmares in the past. I made a massive mistake in appointing W H Brown in Wakefield originally to sell my late Mum's property. They overpriced it, gave us poor information on how to set it up to sell, due to this we had very few viewings & very poor liason. The worst bit was recommending the incompetent solicitors, Gilson Gray in Lincoln, who were a nightmare. I got rid of W H Brown at the first opportunity & listed with Richard Kendall. The difference was night & day! Mandy dealt with absolutely everything brilliantly. She dealt with both sets of solicitors which was a thankless task. We completed yesterday & it would have still been on going if it wasn't for Mandy. To summarise, if you're listing a property in that area just use Richard Kendall, avoid W H Brown & never ever use Gilson Gray solicitors. Thank you Mandy, you've restored my faith in Estate Agents, well one anyway! Absolute star!!

Professional, Personal, Efficient Team

As we have an existing relationship with Richard Kendall they were an obvious choice for the sale of our family home. With branches across the 5 towns they are a perfect choice for the region, with wonderful staff offering a personal, passionate service whilst remaining highly professional and efficient. Karen was our negotiator in Wakefield and worked so hard over a 12 month period! She kept the chain connected through a complex process with various issues, keeping related parties updated along the way. So happy in our new home and the pain was worth it - honestly Karen 😃. You're welcome to visit anytime to see what it was all about and that's not something you'll hear said to an estate agent very often - speaks volumes 🥰. Thank you.

Outstanding support- Karen Marijewko

I had an exceptional experience working with Richard Kendall . From start to finish, they were incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to providing outstanding customer service. They guided me through every step of the process with clear communication, expert advice, and genuine care. Their deep understanding of the market and attention to detail made everything smooth and stress-free. I truly felt supported and well-informed throughout. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with a personal touch, but Karen Marijewko exceeded all expectations. She provided me with more feedback and support than our solicitors did which helped settle the nerves when selling our property. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent — they are simply excellent at what they do.

Great support

We didn't sell through Richard Kendall as our local branch had just closed down but our vendor used them and from the beginning they have been fantastic in keeping us up to date and keeping in touch and supporting us in getting updates at the time of exchange

Liz and Joanne

Liz and Joanne - Wakefield branch Both Liz and Joanne kept me informed with my purchase every step of the way, they were polite and nurturing throughout which made the experience feel somewhat safe (after a previous sale falling through this was exactly the kind of treatment I needed!) Both Joanne and Liz were considerate, knowledgeable and helpful, they made what could have been a stressful time, pretty stress free, doing a lot of chasing on my behalf to ensure things ran smoothly. Thank you so much, if you were considering the Wakefield branch I would highly recommend!

Excellent, Professional & Friendly Service

We appointed Richard Kendall due to an unacceptable & unprofessional service from another Estate Agent. From the initial phone call through to the date of completion Richard Kendall remained professional throughout the whole process. Mandy was our key contact throughout & although there were issues with other Estate Agents & Solicitors, she kept us informed at all times in a professional, friendly & timely manner. I would definitely recommend Richard Kendall Estate Agents & wouldn't hesitate to use them again should we decide to move again in the future.

Confidence, courtesy and professional service.

I had every confidence in dealing with Mandy at Kendall’s estate agents having previously dealt with her in the past. Although it was not a straightforward transaction Mandy was there to mediate between myself and the vendors. There was trust and consideration on both sides and credit a lot of this to Mandy’s expertise. All the staff I have dealt with at Kendall’s have been very efficient and courteous. A family run firm with a personal touch. Highly recommend their professional and personal service.
