Lack of communication. Ongoing issues with selling platforms took weeks to resolve. Really disappointed

Yikes! Please don’t trust this place with your money. We’ve never had issues with other letting agents (maybe because we’re good tenants?) but Whitegates have ruined that streak. We left the house in a state far better than when we moved in (literally dirty socks stuffed down the radiator), and cleaned the carpets with a professional carpet cleaner due to having a cat in the house. We were not expecting to have £225 knocked off of our deposit but here we are. We’ve been dealing with Ellie who is now refusing to provide any evidence or documents regarding special instructions on carpet cleaning, or what kind of carpet cleaner to use etc prior to us moving in. They’re still taking off all of this money because apparently the clean carpets are not clean enough (our stuff was the good cleaning stuff - and we provided proof of that). Now I’d hold my hands up or wave a white flag if Ellie had provided this evidence to us, however - as I say - she has refused. Not very helpful! On top of that, we had someone let themselves into the house to conduct a viewing that we were never even told about, which was the cherry on top. Terrifying having 3 strangers walk in on you in the morning. I know this is a minor story compared to the other ones you’ll be reading down below, but just thought we’d add a little something. Don’t do it, guys! Don’t make our mistake!

Just a quick shout out to Meghan who has been fantastic in helping me reference tenants over the last few years, should have really written this review sooner TBH. Its hard monotonous graft and your perseverance and attention to detail have been brilliant !
Also Olivia many thanks for the help in resolving difficulties in 2025, again your dogged perseverance was greatly appreciated - you have the patience of a saint !!

I had a suitcase returned to my previous property managed by Whitegates at Victoria Court, Newark — it had a return to sender label on it. I had been a tenant of the property for around 15 months. The tenant left the suitcase unattended outside the flat without informing the agency (I had collection pending and the agency were aware of this) it was taken by someone unknown, and it is now gone.
I am based abroad and have no ability to investigate in person. All I asked was for Whitegates to send one email to tenants at the block asking if anyone had seen it. One email. That is the entire request.
Diane — who I understand is a director of this branch — refused. Instead she offered a notice on a board that most residents will never see, told me Whitegates would be “stepping away” from the matter, and made clear she had no intention of helping further. I have then been ignored since the 23rd April.
I have worked with property management and have dealt with letting agents across multiple Whitegates offices, primarily the Mansfield branch. The difference in professionalism is stark. In all that time I have never encountered an agent — let alone a director — so unwilling to assist with something so simple. The response was lazy, condescending, and completely unbefitting someone in a leadership position.
What makes this particularly telling is that Diane and the team clearly have no problem finding time to respond to Google reviews to polish their image — yet a director couldn’t spare two minutes to send one email to help a customer who lost hundreds of pounds of his own belongings due to a failure on their watch. That says everything about where their priorities really lie.
For a director to behave this way is not just poor customer service — it sets the tone for the entire office. Based on the reviews here, it appears this is not an isolated incident but a pattern of behaviour from the top down.
Avoid this branch entirely.

Buying a house is a very long and stressful experience but thanks to the professionalism of Georgia Corrigan and Caitlin Wiley the whole process was managed well and progressed satisfactorily. Catlin was on hand to provide assurance during a time when there was a sudden change of the seller's solicitors. You can imagine how stressful that time would have been. I can not thank Caitlin enough and would definitely recommend Whitegates to anyone looking to purchase a property.

The house we are selling was bought through Whitegates Cleckheaton and had found them very helpful , so when we put it up for sale we went back to the them. After 10 months and a variety of "problems" [being asked to conduct viewing ourselves, not getting constructive feedback etc] we reluctantly cancelled with them .

Overall I was ok with the service and communication. But certain things I was unhappy as did not follow up certain things. I ended up taking off market but other people have had brilliant experiences so I don't think it's all bad. Everyone as off days and deserves a chance. I think they need to up there game in certain areas but it would not put me off going back. I just feel I want to give another estate agent the chance.
