Excellent serice
Farrell Heyworth speedily found a buyer for our property, following a disappointing experience with another estate agent. All the staff in the Barrow office were friendly, approachable and helpful.
Following accepting an offer the experience was made very stressful due to the buyers solicitor, who didn't appear to want to engage with anyone, everything was on her terms. At this time Alison Whiteside from the sales progression team was splendid. Nothing was too much trouble, always a cheery voice, and she did her utmost to keep things moving, and we felt fully supported by her. So a big thank you to Alison for everything she has done.

We’re really pleased to read this, and thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed account of your experience.
It’s great to know that the Barrow team were able to step in, regain momentum and secure a buyer for you after a difficult start elsewhere. We’re especially glad that you found the office approachable and supportive throughout the process.
We also appreciate your openness about the challenges once an offer had been accepted. While elements of the conveyancing process can sit outside our direct control, it’s reassuring to hear that Alison Whiteside provided such consistent, positive support at what was clearly a demanding stage. Her proactive, calm approach and commitment to keeping matters moving are very much in keeping with the service we aim to provide, and your kind words will mean a great deal to her.
Thank you again for your feedback and for trusting Farrell Heyworth with your sale. We wish you all the very best for the future.

Frustrating, awful.
Their original valuation was too high, I was assured this was the correct price (January 2025) this caused the property to sit without interest, I reduced the price twice, I accepted an offer 10th November 2025. the property is unencumbered the buyer has a mortgage agreed NOW 6 months later ....??? nothing. both buyer and myself very frustrated. Current delay, the conveyancer, (Farrell Hayworth recommended for both my purchaser and myself) has gone on her holidays!!!!. My EICR has now expired. Shockingly awful

We’re sorry to hear that you feel dissatisfied with your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback.
Unfortunately, we’re unable to identify the specific transaction referred to from the information provided, which makes it difficult for us to look into the matter in any meaningful way. We would encourage you to contact the relevant branch team directly so that your concerns can be reviewed with the appropriate context.
While we’re always happy to recommend third‑party professionals, such as conveyancers, we’re not able to take responsibility for delays or issues arising within the legal process, as this sits outside of our control.
We recognise how frustrating delays can be and understand the impact this can have on all parties involved. Please contact your local branch so that we can investigate this matter and any third parties we have recommended in further detail.
Thanks,

Insisted i must sell my home before…
Insisted i must sell my home before viewing a property. I live where homes sell in 2-3 weeks. I have to know there is somewhere to buy before selling. Idiocy and incompetence at its highest.
Would nit like to be selling with them. How many potential buyers you are missing?!
I will add. I expected the excuse given. However. When looking for a decent bungalow, which are like hens teeth, you need to find one before Marketing. You cannot risk selling and hope one will drop out of thin air when you do.
Houses yes, ten a penny. I saw one that on paper looks good. Tempting. But I can’t view it to see. Crackers.
And Garstang branch do not follow this rule. I have viewed two potentials there. They operate on a more professional basis. Not sure if this is a franchise. I have also viewed with Holdens and others. So I suggest thinking carefully before using Fulwood Farrell Heyworths

We’re sorry to hear that you feel disappointed with your experience and appreciate you taking the time to share your concerns.
As estate agents, we act on behalf of our vendors and are required to follow their instructions carefully. To protect their position and avoid unnecessary disruption, we ask applicants to demonstrate that they are in a position to proceed before viewing our vendors’ properties. This approach is designed to ensure that viewings are meaningful and that sellers can have confidence in the level of interest being shown in their home.
We understand that this can feel frustrating, particularly where properties sell quickly, and we appreciate that different buyers will have different perspectives on the process. However, our priority is always to act in the best interests of our clients and to support smoother transactions for everyone involved.
We’re unable to comment on individual circumstances publicly, but concerns are always best discussed directly with the branch involved so they can be addressed appropriately.

The sales progression team, namely Alison Whiteside, has provided us with such fantastic support during these past few weeks. Alison has been there for us as a family, whether it has been at the end of a phone call or via email, during what is a naturally stressful time and provided us with constant support when faced with all the challenges that moving house brings.

5* Sales Progression Department
Not only did we have a great experience with the sales staff at Chorley office, we had a 5* experience with the sales progression department, in particular Alison Whiteside. Our sale was not an easy one to say the least! Despite all the obstacles we faced, Alison overcame them all, she went above and beyond, and in all honesty I don’t think the sale would have progressed to completion without her perseverance. Farrell Heyworth are lucky to have her, she is an asset to the Company.

Farrell and Heyworth excellent customer service
I have bought and sold three houses with Farrell and Heyworth in the north west. All from different offices. What makes Farrell and Heyworth stand out is the excellent customer service and efforts of the sale progression team to get things moving to completion. The team understands that regular communication is important to all concerned in the chain. Recently Alison Whiteside helped my elderly mother in a complicated house sale/flat purchase and was active in chasing solicitors for answers and dealing with purchaser enquiries. I can honestly say, if it were not for Alison we would have lost our buyer and onward purchase. She is now settled in and doing well. Thank you to all the team at Cleveleys Branch and Alison.

The service provided by Alison Whiteside
The service provided by Alison Whiteside was excellent. It was a very stressful time upon completion as there were disputes between the solicitors on both sides and the buyer was moving over from Gurnsey and her rental premises in Blackpool were no longer available. Alison was an excellent mediator and we finally completed on the deadline day without much ado. It was an emotional time and Alison shouldered much of the stress. I can't thank her enough.

Thank you
We had a very positive experience with Farrell Heyworth. Our purchase was fairly straightforward, however we still had bumps in the road. Alison Whiteside from the sales progression team was extremely supportive, responding to emails promptly and helping to keep things moving in the last few days. Buying and selling houses is hard work, with situations that are often out of your control (and also out of the control of the agents). Good communication is key, and we had this from both agents that were involved. Thank you Alison, you made a very stressful time more bearable, especially during the last few days!

WOW, Amazing experience.
I have just had amazing experience selling a property through Farrell Heyworth, Cleveleys. But, I would like to take this opportunity to praise the FH Sales Progressor Alison Whiteside. As anyone will know the whole process is a very time consuming ordeal and at times can be quite slow and frustrating. But FH have this amazing person who will take on a sale, grab it by the scruff of the neck and be relentless in pushing the solicitors to completion. Even with my own sale there were a few bumps in the road, but with Alison, she is someone you can communicate with on a personal level which helps immensely. She is extremely attentive to the situation and may I add, she has an amazing sense of humor. For me, that was golden. FH should be very proud to have a person like Alison and the staff of the Cleveleys branch in their ranks. They are a real credit to the estate agency industry. Once again, thank you so much for the hard work put in to get my property sold.
