Rudest staff, no communication within the office, so unhelpful, avoid avoid avoid
Called to book a viewing and was told ‘shes not here so I can’t book it’ I asked ‘when will she be back please’ the women on the phone replied ‘well I don’t know because she’s not here to ask is she’
I let this go and called back a few days later to book the viewing. Got booked in and was sent an application form. Of course I filled out the form. I was then sent a very rude email stating the application would be sent after a viewing, fine, went to the viewing where there were 4 other people viewing at the same time, the estate agent was exceptionally overstretched to the point it came across rude. Having to keep turning her back during conversations, left alone to walk round without any knowledge of the property given and no chance to ask questions and then had to openly discuss finances infront of all the other people viewing. I was told I would be called later that day to state if my application would still be sent off due to it being sent in too early. I was not called, waited until the following day and received an email asking if I wanted to view the property. I replied to the email to find my email had been added to a block list!!!! Absolutely appalling customer service, rude staff, so glad I realised this before committing to a property with them!!!... Read more

Eric Clarke estate agent in Farnworth really should change their name to “NOT ERIC CLARKE ANY MORE”. The original Eric Clarke was a well-known friendly, helpful, customer focused family business.
The new Eric Clarke estate doesn’t work on Saturdays so you can’t arrange a viewing on a Saturday. This discriminates against people that have full time jobs. If you ask for a weekend viewing, you are rudely told to “make time” during the week. This means that everyone has to take a day off from their Monday to Friday job if they wish to view an Eric Clarke property. Surely an Estate agent, like any other retailer, should be there for the benefit of their customers, not the other way round?
They are not at all flexible with their viewings, either. The woman on phone told me that I could view a house on a Monday. But I couldn’t get a day off on Monday so I asked for Tuesday. She said NO, they don’t have viewings for Tuesday!
When I asked why Eric Clarke can’t “make time” for the buyers, she just repeated arrogantly, “No, we don’t work on Saturdays” before she hung up on me. What type of customer service is that?
Eric Clarke is the only estate agent I know who won’t allow me to make an offer without having first viewed the property with them.
Over the years I have bought and sold several properties with the original Eric Clarke, including the one that I am currently living in. Now I am interested in a property that they are selling, which I have previously viewed with another estate agent only a few days ago. Inexplicably, they will not allow me to put an offer in on this house because I have not viewed it with “them”. But they refuse to let me view it on a Saturday, which is the only day I am free to view it. Or a Tuesday when I could get someone to cover my shift.
I lost the chance to view/purchase another property with them not long ago due to their inflexibility in their viewing arrangement.
Is Eric Clarke an estate agent? If so, isn’t it your sole job to sell properties for the vendors who pay for your service? Do your vendors even know that you are making it so difficult for people with full time jobs to view their properties?
So Eric Clarke, how can people buy a property with you when they work Monday to Friday, when you do not work Saturdays or Sundays, and don’t do viewings in a flexible way during weekdays?
In my opinion, the new Eric Clarke is making viewing your property difficult because they are so inflexible with their viewing arrangements.
In my opinion, the new Eric Clarke is making purchasing your property difficult because they force you to view the property with their representative before they will allow you to make an offer.
In my opinion, this estate agent should stop using Eric Clarke’s name, because it is an absolute insult to the reputation of the original Eric Clarke family business.... Read more

Thank you so much to Danny for the help, support and advice throughout the whole process in the sale of my late father's house. Not only was he a true professional with his estate agents head on, he was supportive in what was a very difficult time for my 2 sisters and I. An absolute credit to the company. Thank you so very much... Read more

From the initial phone call to ask for information to the end handing over the keys everything was simple and efficient. Dan was available to answer any queries and if he said he would return a call he did. It was my first experience of selling a property, Dan called to value the property and it was sold less than a week later. Very impressed. I would highly recommend this estate agent. Payment for the sale of the house was the same time as the email saying it had been completed. Exceptional.... Read more

We approached Eric Clarke because of their local knowledge of Farnworth and their expertise in valuing properties in that area. After placing our property on the market we had a confirmed offer which we accepted within two weeks. From start to finish they took ownership of the property supervising visits and only contacting me with serious buyers. All the stress was taken out of the process and would have no hesitation of recommending them.... Read more
