The worst company I've rented from so far. The apartment I rented from them wasn't painted, and during all the period I lived in that apartment I had problems that never were fixed. In the end, when I decided to leave the flat, I cleaned the apartment in the beat way possible and returned the key with everything perfectly clean, but still, they kept my deposit, which was completly disonest from them. I defnitly disrecomend!.... Read more

We are first time buyers and this process has been so daunting for us. Karen Marijewko has been an absolute godsend for us and we are so grateful to have had her support throughout. Karen has been so patient with our millions of questions and has been so quick to respond to us. Everyone I have spoken to about the house buying process have had poor experiences with their estate agents and had warned us about having to chase for information constantly. We feel so lucky to have had Karen as ours as she did all the chasing without us having to ask. She has emailed on the same day every single week without fail which has given us peace of mind that we aren’t alone in this. It’s been a long journey to get to completion next week, and I cannot thank Karen enough for her support.... Read more

Had better odds at the horse races.
Their organisation is terrible and as buyers we’ve had the following issues:
- Long waiting times on calls.
- Wrong properties booked (which we’ve driven to then find out the current occupant has no idea).
- Being told that an agent is showing us around the property yet it’s the vendor.
I didn’t know there was much that could go wrong with booking viewings, but these lot set the bar high for mistakes.... Read more

Richard Kendalls have recently sold my property & I have been incredibly impressed with the level of service I have received.
The first point of contact was with Grace who valued the property in a friendly and professional way giving clear information on costs etc. Andrew the photographer did a fabulous job & I was thrilled with the results.
Karen was my main point of contact during the sale process and I can honestly say the service she gives is outstanding. I was kept informed at every stage & she contacted me every week with an update. She also contacted my solicitors to get information when I was having problems contacting them.
Richard Kendalls is the premier estate agents within the Wakefield District by far.... Read more

I cannot recommend agent Karen Marijewko at Richard Kendall Wakefield, highly enough for her outstanding professionalism and attention to detail throughout our property buying experience. From the initial viewing to the final signing, Karen demonstrated a deep understanding of the market and superb negotiation skills. Her dedication and commitment to finding us the perfect property did not go unnoticed. Thanks to Karen, we were able to secure the beautiful property at Western Road, Tingley, which we now call home.

We honestly do not think we would have completed on the sale and purchase of our new property when we did if it wasn’t for Shireen and Catherine helping to get it all through. Initially when looking for an estate agent we had considered using an online one however we know now that would have been a massive mistake, it’s a guarantee they wouldn’t put in the effort and commitment we got from Richard Kendall. We managed to get into our new house 5 weeks before our baby is due. We will forever be grateful to Shireen and Catherine for getting us here just in time!... Read more

To say we hated the process of selling our lovely (but now too small) home was an understatement! However, if like us you don’t relish the process we highly recommend Richard Kendall’s. Roger came out to value our home and talk us through the process, he was so friendly and professional, a real pleasure to talk to. Once we agreed to list the property a photographer came out to take the pictures and we wish we could remember his name because he was absolutely amazing! So friendly and really talked us through the process, we must have had a hundred questions. At this point things were handed over to Joanne and Donna to deal with the sale. We would highly recommend that everyone requests them to handle their sale!! They were fantastic from start to finish and handled our sale perfectly!! We couldn’t have done it without their advice, guidance and on hand support! Thank you so much Donna and Joanne thanks to you we are all sat happily in our beautiful new family home a lot less stressed than we could have been!... Read more

Viewed a house and after was asked to fill out pre-application form so all the adults can get a link to application form. Sent it back straight away, but haven’t received any links. In the evening called to the office and was told to wait a bit longer. Next day called them back again and also on top of that wanted to book more viewing. They said if I do so my application will be withdrawn so I was left waiting. 2 days later the property was gone. Thank you for wasting the whole week for us... Read more

Excellent service from Richard Kendall Estate agents.
They attended promptly and valued the house sensibly at a level that we were happy with but applied no pressure at this stage.
We instructed them to sell the house and photos,EPC and For Sale board were quickly done.
Richard Kendall carried out the viewings on our behalf of which there were plenty and secured numerous offers within weeks.
We were then kept fully informed of progress right through to completion.
Very happy and would recommend.... Read more

Unfortunately, nothing but negative service throughout my 18 month rental property.
When I moved in I reported a broken window and provided photos, which was further reported at my 6 months and 1 year inspection. Not once was there any attempt to fix it or rectify the situation, i moved out with it still broken. I also did not have a carbon monoxide detector for the first 8 or so months in the property.
The condition of the property was far beyond clean when I moved in, e.g. stains on the carpet which I had to remove, dust on skirting boards and stairs etc. This was not a huge issue until I moved out and was expected to leave the place entirely spotless, which I did, bleached skirting boards and all.
Upon return of my keys I visited the Wakefield office to hand them back. I walked in to be briefly acknowledged by nearly 15 members of staff looking up from their desk and promptly returning to their work. I had to actually ask someone to help me as I was blatantly ignored. Quite frankly the worst estate agents I have ever dealt with and I am glad to see the back of them.... Read more

Been dealing with Richard Kendall's at the Wakefield office since mid 2021 including a short hiatus in our transaction at our request. Can't fault them at all. Both Lucy H and Alison have been really helpful, keeping us informed all the way and providing lots of support and advice. Towards the end of our transaction things weren't quite plain sailing due to complications elsewhere in the chain but Kendall's did all they could to keep things moving and help us through the "sticky" bits. Would definitely recommend this company.... Read more

My wife and I recently sold our property through Richard Kendall's Wakefield branch. (Northgate, Wakefield)
We had bought a house at auction so we needed a quick sale to the right buyer.
Daniel came out and valued our house at a price we were both happy with and within the first week we had about 12 viewings and 5 offers.
One of these offers was £11k above our asking price which we were obviously delighted with.
The next hurdle was the 56 day time frame we had to complete the sale of our home and the purchase from the auction.
My wife and I both feel that this would not have been achieved without the hard work of the Kendall's team but we would both like to thank Amanda and Joanne especially! Without the hard work these two stars put in we would not be in our new home now. They kept us constantly updated and were fantastic with chasing up our buyer, our buyers solicitors and everyone else they needed to to get this over the line. Hopefully we will not be selling again anytime soon but if anyone is looking for an estate agent I cannot recommend Kendall's highly enough - I have only given them 5 stars as it wont let me give them 6!
Thank you to all at Richard Kendall's again.

Richard Kendall provided an excellent service from start to finish. David Savage provided a very professional and informative market appraisal, answered all our questions and give good advice on how best to market our bungalow. We were then passed over to Karen Marijewko, Senior Property Consultant, she was very professional from the start making sure that all viewings were followed up, all feedback was immediately shared and offers presented. Once the offer had been accepted she was amazing at keeping us updated and always chased any queries that cropped up. Without her half the time we wouldn’t have known what was happening with the buyers and solicitors. I would highly recommend Kendall's, David and Karen and also the other girls who answered the phone and promptly dealt with our queries. Thank you all for a first class service.... Read more

I decided to rent a property through Richard Kendalls, due to the great reviews, unfortunatly that's the only good news i can report, i was promised the property would be inspected at the start of a new tenancy and at the end of the tenancy, after 18 months and a change of tenancy still no inspection, i had reason to believe there was a cannabis farm at the property and had to demand the property was inspected, they finally turned up took a few photos didn't notice cannabis farm in the loft, extraction holes, locked doors should have rang alarm bells however just advised the door was locked even though the door at the side had holes and extraction equipment installed, i had the sense to take out buildings and contents insurance along with rental guarantee, the tenant advised Kendalls he had split up with his partner so a new tenancy was required, i agreed to a new tennency however i found out to my horror that because Kendall's had not done the necessary referance paperwork for the new tenancy when i came to claim it was found i wasn't insured, i asked Kendall''s to explain why this was not completed upon the new tenancy agreement, i was advised i should have advised them, by cutting corners this agent cost me over £24,000 in damages and rent arrears, its clear that they just want the commission, %£%£, do the absolute minimum and do NOT care about protecting you or your property....

From Andy’s superb photos and video, through to Donna and Suzanne’s incredible organisation, care, network and knowledge, we couldn’t have been happier with the service from the Ossett branch.
When deciding to appoint Richard Kendall’s we looked at lower cost alternatives but we definitely made the right decision to pay a fraction more for the quality.
It’s easy to get an offer on a house but to get all the chain in line and the transaction over the line, Richard Kendall’s were superb. They managed up and down the chain, worked hand in glove with our’s and our buyer’s solicitors and were genuinely fantastic!

They say that moving home is one of the most stressful things you can do. Common comment after the move ' is never again'. However there has been a couple of highlights from the estate agent that was handling our purchase. They were always available to answer questions and were proactive in keeping tabs on our intended purchase. This helped to compensate for one of the solicitors in the chain who started and continued to cause problems by lack of access. I would recommend Richard Kendall. Get to know your agent it makes a big difference.... Read more

We recently exchanged contracts with the lady buying our property and to say it’s been tough would be an understatement. We have had some real curveballs thrown at us along the way but I have to give it up for Richard Kendall and our solicitors at GM Wilson for doing such a great job.
Professional throughout the whole the experience and kept us well informed at every stage. They are not the cheapest option on the market to sell your home but…… you get what you pay for. When playing with money and contracts that are potentially life changing don’t skimp on the detail.
Special mentions to Lizzy, Cath and Shireen who have all been nothing but great. Thanks again for the hard work in getting this over the line and thank the lord I won’t be selling again for a long, long time to come ??

Well done everyone.... Read more

Catherine Kirkby she is the best in her class, a very nice and responsible person.
always happy to help immediately in any matter.
Best of the best I wouldn't choose another real estate agency, thanks Catherine for help.
Never again would I be left with a Lee Green LTD plumber in a very inappropriate approach to the customer.
after determining the price and date, he forgot about the vacation, postponed by 7 days, then when, due to my fault, the chakal 2 hours for the key to the property demanded 70 pounds, which was not a problem, after the next week he added another 140 pounds.
as part of the cooperation, he raised the price and extended the home sale process by 4-6 weeks. He should never work with Richard Kendal estate agents spoils the great image of this real estate agency.... Read more

We recently had to sell my mothers property and from valuation to completion the whole process was handled really efficiently. Throughout the sale we were regularly updated as to progress by Catherine and her team and everything went really smoothly. We used one of Richard Kendall's panel of solicitors who were equally as good and very helpful. I would have no hesitation in recommending Richard Kendall in Wakefield if you are considering the sale of a property. Seamless service and they really took the stress out of dealing with the sale.... Read more

Recently purchased a property through Richard Kendall estate agents, Wakefield and dealt with Karen Preece exclusively throughout the purchase. I found her to be very thorough and professional in my contacts with her and very prompt in addressing issues I raised. When at one point the seller appeared frustrated and apparenrly considered offering the property to prospective new buyers, Karen's sound and timely advice was instrumental in getting things back on track and from that point our purchase progressed swiftly and entirely to our satisfaction. Many thanks to Karen of the Richard Kendall estate agency.... Read more

We used Richard Kendall to buy our first home, at first we was sceptical as we have been dealing with the letting office in Horbury and have found them to be quite unprofessional.
However after speaking to Karen our faith was restored she did everything that she Said she would do and kept us up to date with any development no matter how big or small. Even after completion of sale she called to advise us of updates that we needed to be made aware of.
Fantastic service thank you very much Karen you are a credit to your company.

My partner had an appointment today to view a property for rent in Princes Gate, Horbury. Wakefield today at 12.15. He travelled all the way from Derbyshire to view the property and arrived at exactly 12.17 but there was no agent there. We waited 10 minutes then rang the office to see what was happening. The lady on the phone said she would ring straight back once she found out where the agent was. Waited another 10 minutes but no call so my partner rang back. He was told the agent had waited at the property till 12.30 then left. This was a complete lie as we arrived at the property at 12.17. Just 2 minutes late for our 12.15 appointment after travelling nearly 50 miles. We had another property to view with this agency tomorrow but cancelled. I hate shoddy service but hate liars even more. Terrible service. !!!!!!!!... Read more

I have to say that the experience and service we had from RK selling our house was first class from start to finish. We had a few people come and value our house but the gent who came from RK was efficient, friendly and told us what we needed to know without giving us the hard sell.
From then on we were looked after by Karen and like every house move there was ups and downs but the weekly catch up call from Karen was invaluable. Her advices was spot and and often throughout the process her weekly chat seemed like my counselling session, she was a great help.

Reply to "Response from the owner".
My surname is not that common, it should searchable in your records.
I don't know what you mean by "recent", certainly within the last 2-3 years.
The reason I reviewed you now is that Google asked me to, and I thought that was a good idea given my experience.
I see no need to call you directly, we conversed by email directly at the time, and obviously nothing was cleared up as I still have the same negative view that I had then.
You cannot expect the review system to work solely in your favour, the practice of discrediting the reviewer and then taking the conversation "offline" stinks, I would prefer people who are seeking honest reviews to see the full story.... Read more

Very unhappy with their service. I had to call multiple times to chase updates regarding my contract and move in date. I was told I can only sign the contract after the current tenant moves out (I have not encountered this before with other agencies). I was also told I can move in by the first week of august, but that was postponed as the previous tenant moved out late, which was still fine. But then the agency told me last minute that they now don’t intend on renting the property to us as the owner had decided to sell the property. They weren’t even nice / apologetic on the call. I can hear her impatience while telling me the news. Upon checking their website now, I can see that the flat had just been sold by the agency, I find it suspicious that I was told on Tuesday afternoon that they were just informed about the owners intention to sell, and within 48 hours, it was sold. It’s hard to believe the agency didn’t know about the owners intention beforehand. I also just came across an ad posted by the company on rightmove back in June advertising this property for sale. So they were already intending on selling the property and just used me as a backup... Read more

Let me share my experience in dealing with Richard kendal and Catherine.
We cancelled over agreement with Richard kendall and received a phone call from Catherine and i was told we can't advertise over property with any other company and if we decide to sell over property we be liable to pay Richard kendal selling fee.
After reading contract it was clear enough to see she Lined and trying to bully us.
After sending few emails we had no reply and been told she is not available to take my phone calls.
Very very disappointed in Richard kendal and advice i was given.
Do not trust this company and never again we will deal with Catherine and Richard kendall.

Case handler was Catherine Kilbride, started off ok but when things started to drag on, so did communication from Estate agents with not really having any answers to why the vendors solicitors was slow. Finally purchased and completed the sale, we have had the house for over a month now, but no one had called to congratulate us or see how we have settled in. Its as if they've got their commission after sale isn't important. Seeing as the purchase was for over £400,000 you would think with the amount of commission they have earned by doing next to nothing that a courtesy call to thank us will have Been the least they could have done. No manners and I've noticed they only reply to good feedback. if I was to sell my house I wouldn't go to these and if I was to buy another I would think twice if it was being sold by Richard Kendall Estate Agents....

Where to start... My family and I viewed a house that we wished to buy through this estate agent, we viewed it twice and liked it. We immediately got ourselves a mortgage approval and had an offer (almost the asking price) accepted straight away. We instructed this estate agent to then sell our house.
We were responsible for all but one of the many viewings we had, simply because Richard Kendall estate agents "didn't have time or availability" to show people around. This meant time off work and cancelling evening and weekend plans to accommodate.
After a few weeks, we received a call to tell us that we have had an offer (which was a reasonable one) but they had since sold the house that we were intended to buy.
When I asked Amanda Dyson how this had happened without our knowledge she immediately claimed that they had not withheld this information from us and it was merely a coincidence - a strange response given that I had never suggested this in the first place.
It seems that we were expected to "just move somewhere else" by these people.
I'll leave the reader to decide whether this was a coincidence or, as Amanda herself suggested - something else a little more sneaky.
I was then told that we could put in a higher offer to win back the house - DURING THE SAME CALL I was then (in an obnoxious and arrogant tone of voice) told that we "wouldn't be in a position to proceed" anyway because they didn't know what position the new buyer would be in.
Once this call ended we then received an email informing us that nobody was actually buying our house?!
We have been very keen in both buying and selling through Amanda & Nikki at Richard Kendall but the way we have been treated through this journey has been shocking.
In my experience they are unprofessional, rude and arrogant. Very disappointing.... Read more
