“Liars.”
Written on: 08/05/2013 by madathaart
Told me my holding fee I paid on the house would be returned. Well.. I never saw any of that money. Talked to a branch manager and they told me it was for processing fees. Tried calling several times to the agent who helped me and to no avail. I would not recommend this agency to anyone. Very misleading and not helpful at all. (read more)

“Liars, Liars. Mislead you over commission charged on sale”
Written on: 25/04/2013
Sold my property through Haarts. Agent came to view the property and we agreed the commission to be 1.5% of the sale value. However on the contract he entered a figure in pounds based on the valuation saying this was just an example as they have to put a figure on the contract and not a percentage. However he told me it will be adjusted if it sold for a lower price which indeed it did sell at a much lower price than the valuation. Got a terrible shock when I received the invoice for the...

“Terrible, lying, waste of time and money”
Written on: 24/04/2013
Avoid, avoid, avoid. I used Haart Hucknall, Notts to sell my shared ownership property and they were awful. More concerned about getting paid than the customer. They came and took pictures and put them online which is fine however it would of been better if they had the correct information like the 1 vital piece of info that it was a shared ownership property. How could you forget the main piece of info? They placed the for sale board at the back of the property away from the main road so... (read more)

“Liars!”
Written on: 24/04/2013
In July 2012 I had several valuations from different agents in my area, and decided to go with a competitor to Haarts. The next 9 months I was called weekly from someone from there call centre to state they had "customers" ready and waiting to buy my property. So in the end I gave in and decided to multi agent. I advised I didn't want to have a set fee and would prefer a % of the sale, only to be advised "this is against the rules and regulations of selling a property" - Yet the obusmans... (read more)

“Haart Ipswich”
Written on: 20/04/2013 by shadoof1016 (1 review written)
I visited Haart Ipswich in a lovely large new office after seeing impressive spele on Saturday 20th April AM with no other customers there. I may be old in the tooth but quite simply I wanted to know without fuss what the commission would be on selling a £400k house just outside Ipswich I wanted a rough idea not having sold for over two decades but they were less than candid and when I became slightly more vocal they wanted me to sit down and come and see the property. Whilst I appreciate... (read more)

Currently still in process of sale from overseas so reliant on some form of communication ie email. HAART do not bother to make contact unless threatened with withdrawal of sale. They have a young and inexperienced team whom all sound positive and eager but once the phone is put down they could not care less. They told us our buyer could move very quickly and we accepted a lower offer on those grounds, however it seems the buyer did not even have a mortgage offer in place thus we have been... (read more)

“Haart Estate Agent Review”
Written on: 25/03/2013
After an initially promising meeting at their local office, the follow up was disappointing. Few details of the proposed sale were discussed and I had to wait at least a week for any further contact. The subsequent telephone call promised some follow up but no further contact has been received. I was invited to complete a Haart feedback survey today (25/03/13) but on the question fields they asked if I was "dissapointed". If you can't spell disappointed, how can you be taken seriously in...

“REFUSED TO PASS HIGHER OFFER TO VENDOR”
Written on: 20/03/2013 by Londonguy (1 review written)
Two terrible experiences 1 - Slough offices. They refused to pass on my higher offer to the vendor. In the end the property was sold substantially under value. It all seemed very odd, it was as if Haart were preventing my higher offer to go through. 2 - Enfield offices. Would not respond to my request to view a property. The for sale price looked good, perhaps too good. The property was later withdrawn form the listing on Rightmove. Again very odd, it seems as though Haart are (atn... (read more)

“Awful experience - Haart Grays”
Written on: 12/03/2013 by linnor86
As a first time buyer all the excitement of finding and buying a property was very quickly ruined by the terrible service from Haart. We had found a property, put in the offer, offer was accepted. Haart had said that they would not take the property off the market until the solicitor and surveyor had been instructed (fair enough). Within a day the solicitor was instructed and we had arranged for the surveyor to contact Haart. To add, at this point it was becoming increasingly difficult to... (read more)

That is completly unacceptable. You should have been made aware that there was another offer. You need to follow the branches complaints proceedure, do not let them fob you off and take it all the way to the ombusman. They have broken the strict code of the TPO and you may even get compensation. Section 7E States ''you must keep all prospective buyers who have recently made offers through you, and which have not already been rejected, informed of the exsistance of any offers submitted to the seller'' Dont let them get away with it, they have totally broken the code. Good luck

“HAART BLABY. WORST EXPERIENCE OF ANY ESTATE AGENT.”
Written on: 27/02/2013
Recently tried to sell a property with Haart Blaby branch near Leicester.I would strongly urge people not to use this estate agent. After some consideration and a load of sales patter from their manager, we removed a property from the estate agent we had it placed with, and put it into the hands of Haart, at their request. We regretfully were fooled by their claims that they could market the property better, get results and eventually sell the property. After a period of four Months, they... (read more)

We were interested in buying a repossessed property in Milton Keynes. The process started before Christmas. We were in a very good position, in that it would have been a cash purchase.We saw a property, and put in a written offer,with evidence of our financial situation. We had been told that there had been another potential purchaser, but they were having some mortgage issues and there had been no exchange of contracts.We offered a not inconsiderable amount more than that offer to push the...

I absolutely agree, we had an offer on a property and asked specifically to be told if another offer was made but after a week of hearing nothing I called to be told the property was sold! If I was the seller I would not be impressed I had potentially lost out on a higher sale just through the sheer laziness of the agent! I would never use them now to sell a property and would certainly advise others against it.

I have been with Haart since 2010. All is sound when every thing is dandy and there are no problems, however, once there is a problem that needs fixing you are talking to a brick wall!

so true, they are trying to siphon money out of us from our deposit. They are blaming the landlord, who I know has no idea about haart's antics. I have started a written chain and will publish their lies as soon as I trap them. What a joke these agents are. A disgrace to their profession - do not use them.

So despite being nearly £900 dearer than the agent we were meant to be signing with, we thought they would be worth a chance first. The agent left our property with the... (read more)

Wish i had read this before going with them, I could not agree further with your comments.
It is a constant battle to get repairs carried out and is damaging my health.
My partner and I have been without hot water or heating for 6 days now,
Communication is not in their dictionary, everything is done by email or text, the phone doesn't exicist as they never talk to their contractors or customers.
My electrics were a death trap and it took them nearly a month to sort out.

Haart build in a secret clause to their contracts so that they can try to take money from you after you are finally rid of them. In our case, we signed a 16 week contract.

In response to the haarts response below: Your company is a joke.

Calls are never returned, emails ignored and nothing but complete lies to us. haarts is the most useless, worthless sorry excuse for a lettings/estate agent on earth. I would rather have a soggy wet pile of dog poo be my estate agent.
Your Nottingham branch is an absolute JOKE!!! NEVER under ANY circumstance USE Haarts for anything.

“DON T USE THIS AGENT!! NEVER”
Written on: 26/04/2012
we rent a property from this agency and the service is just terrible. They have a new system now that if you need anything you have to call this call centre 100 miles away from were we live, and the person in charge is never there and they tell us that she will call back and she never does!!! we have been chasing them for about 2 months now to fix the washing machine that is about to pack up ( which is the landlord responsibility as per contract)and nothing. we were about 3 weeks with no...

This is soOO true ,I received the same experience from the branch in East London. The estate agent totally tried to put me off but I think am going to get in touch with the seller directly and let him know what his agent is up to! This property was also suitable for buy to let.

It is sad as it seems this happens too often. I have reported the slough case to Trading Standards and they are invesitgating. My suggestion is you do the same .... the mroe reports Trading Standards receive the more likely they will take enforcement action.

Haart tend to do the hard sell and get you to have amortgage through them so they can have complete control. They did this to us, claimed that the person doing the mortgages was independant of haart yet they phoned from the haart office. This leads me to believe that if you do not take a mortgage with them then they would be less likely to be enthuisastic about any offers you might have or even in your case send them on to the vendor. We offered 82 for house priced at 85 and was told they want 90, 1 week later it's reduced to 75. What is going off there? Is it because we didn't mortgage through haart? They even ignored some of our negotians. It's still on the market now and like you I think I might get in touch with the vendor directly.
