Richard Kendall Estate Agent Take on the Yorkshire Three Peaks for a Cause Close to Home.

Team Richard Kendall Estate Agent are officially taking on the Yorkshire Three Peaks Challenge on Saturday 14th June — and we are doing it for a cause that means the world to us. 20 of us will be lacing up our walking boots very early to tackle the 24.5 mile trek across Ingleborough, Pen-Y-Ghent and Whernside – all to raise vital funds for MY Hospital Charity, with a special focus on the Respiratory Ward, a cause close to all our hearts.

If you are looking to buy a home with a smaller deposit, there is good news: low-deposit mortgages are making a comeback and 2025 is shaping up to be one of the best years in nearly two decades to explore your options.

Whether you are a first-time buyer or moving home, here’s what the rise in low deposit loan-to-value (LTV) mortgages means for you and how Dan or Luke at SMH Finance can help you make the most of it.

Richard Kendall Wakefield have just won the British Property Award for Wakefield, and are also holders of the 2023 Gold Winner Estate Agent in Wakefield award.

Their team performed outstandingly throughout the extensive judging period, which focused on customer service levels.

Richard Kendall Wakefield have now been shortlisted for a number of national awards which will be announced later in the year.

The UK housing market is constantly evolving, and 2025 is shaping up to be another year of change. With house prices shifting, mortgage rates adjusting, and upcoming tax changes, many buyers and homeowners are wondering what their next move should be. 

Here’s a look at the key trends shaping the market and what they could mean for anyone looking to buy, sell, or re-mortgage this year.

A well-prepared tenancy agreement is essential for ensuring a smooth and stress-free rental experience for both landlords and tenants. A clear and legally compliant contract helps prevent disputes and misunderstandings while protecting the rights of both parties. Whether you are renting out a property or moving into one, here are some key pitfalls to avoid when entering a tenancy agreement. 

Not reviewing the agreement carefully 

One of the most common mistakes tenants make is signing a tenancy agreement without fully reading and understanding it. Landlords should also ensure the contract is clear, up to date, and compliant with current legislation. Both parties should carefully review terms related to rent, deposit, maintenance responsibilities, and notice periods before signing. Seeking clarification on any unclear clauses can prevent problems later on.

Just completed upon my mum’s bungalow in Horbury Wakefield. This was a complex sale (Shared Ownership Scheme) involving Landlord, their Solicitors & Managing Agents working in conjunction with my Solicitors and the Purchasers Solicitors. It was extremely challenging and demanding but was successfully orchestrated and managed by their Senior Property Consultant Mandy Bennett based in their Ossett Agency. We fully recognise and appreciate this was only achieved through the hard work and persistence of Mandy supported by her fellow colleagues in the local area. We were always kept up to date at all stages and would highly recommend Richard Kendall’s Estate Agents. Steve 15/04/2025
From the outset it was a privilege to converse with Karen Marijewko. She made the whole process very straightforward. The Richard Kendall software system updating me regularly with viewings was extremely good. Overall a simple, clear and efficient process. Highly recommend this company and Karen. Mr Snow 15/04/2025
We would like to thank Catherine and Shireen for working so hard in our selling/buying. They were so knowledgeable, polite and extremely helpful. They gave us lots of support. All the other staff were helpful too, especially Margaret. Thank you so much. Kind regards, Sue and Keith. Sue 15/04/2025
Excellent service. Can't rate Leah enough at Ossett branch. She went above and beyond to get our completion through before the end March. Alan 15/04/2025
Richard Kendall Estate Agents guided us through a tough buyer’s market when other agents pushed us to drastically lower our property’s price. Despite our urgency to sell, they advised against a steep reduction, suggesting a modest drop instead. Their insight—that finding the right buyer takes time—proved spot-on. Within a week of the adjustment, a couple fell in love with our home and bought it, leaving us wondering if we’d undersold. Alison and the team were professional, communicative, and strategic—focused on value, not just a quick sale. Highly recommend! David 15/04/2025
