Emily provided excellent service

Emily provided excellent service in very challenging situations firstly having to reject one buyer seeking substantial price reductions after offering asking price.
She then found the eventual purchaser, but they had to obtain Builders Guarantee transferral causing much more work for everyone. One online Solicitor was extremely poor at communication / progressing enquiries and caused Emily much extra work to proceed the sale. She remained active and helpful at all times.

Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback. We are really pleased to hear how well Emily supported you through what was clearly a very challenging sale. Situations like renegotiations, complex guarantees and slow communication from third parties can be frustrating, so it’s great to know that Emily remained proactive, helpful and committed throughout. Emily will be delighted to know her persistence and professionalism made a difference in keeping the sale moving forward. Thank you again for choosing Richard Kendall and for sharing your experience, it’s very much appreciated.

Great service while letting house out.

We are really happy with the service and communication from Alice at Richard Kendall. We have been renting our house out for 2 years and have been through the process of finding tenants twice. Alice is always very friendly and approachable for any issues that arise.

Feeling looked after

Fran from the Horbury office has looked after us fabulously.
We moved house and she has dealt with letting our old house out. From certificates to silly queries and making sure I was on track with everything needed.
I would definitely recommend.

JUST WHAT WAS NEEDED FROM DAY ONE TO CLOSURE

I take this opportunity to show my gratitude to Karen Marijewko who from the A/M Estate Agent helped myself and my Wife during this sale. At all times Karen was friendly, courteous and extremely efficient. In my opinion she is exactly the type of person you need in this position, always on top of the situation and more than willing to go that extra mile. We are very,very grateful to her and compliment her on having a marvellous manner,thank you.

Fantastic service.

I can’t thank Karen Marijewko enough for her recent support in my recent sale and purchase. It wasn’t all smooth sailing (through no fault of Karen or Richard Kendall) but Karen went out of her way on numerous occasions to ensure the sale/purchase was progressing as quickly as possible. The communication I received was brilliant and greatly appreciated.
I wouldn’t go to anybody else in the future.

First Class Service

Richard Kendall's Estate Agents were first class.
Karen Marijewko and the team kept us fully informed throughout the sale. She liaised with all others involved: solicitors, surveyors etc and referred back to us in a timely way, offering suggestions and options as appropriate.
Karen is always professional and supportive, and understands the stress of the housing market!
I don't think anyone else could have enabled a smoother process from start to finish.
Thank you, Karen.

We recently purchased a property through Richard Kendall Estate Agents and received outstanding service throughout. In particular, Karen Marijewko was exceptionally professional, prompt, and consistently proactive in keeping us updated at every stage of the process. Her communication was clear, timely, and genuinely reassuring, making what can often be a stressful experience run smoothly.

I would highly recommend Richard Kendall Estate Agents, and even more so Karen, whose dedication and attention to detail were exemplary. A first-class service from start to finish.

Swift Dream Home Purchase in West Yorkshire

We purchased our dream home and we’re extremely impressed with the senior partner Sara Whalley at the first point of contact when she promptly processed our initial offer and in a very short time without any delay. Subsequently Karen Marijewko looked after us and she was thorough, professional and kept us up to date throughout and ensured a very smooth purchase process. We are now moving into the beautiful dream house in good time before Christmas and will always be grateful to you both and rest of the team at Richard Kendall

We are especially pleased that everything came together in time for you to move into your dream home before Christmas what a perfect way to start the next chapter. Your kind words will mean a great deal to Sarah, Karen, and the whole team. Thank you again for choosing Richard Kendall, and we wish you every happiness in your new home.

Karen Marijewko has been amazing

I've personally never sold a property before this one so I had no idea what to expect but Karen Marijewko provided such informative information and help throughout the process she made this so much easier. I haven't had to pester for constant updates as Karen had provided them. I want to thank Karen personally as she has been an absolute pleasure to speak with on the house sale and made my life so much easier with the sale and keeping me up to date with everything. I would definitely recommend Richard Kendall just for Karen.
