Here at Richard Kendall Estate Agent we know home is where the heart is – celebrating good news and community partnerships.

As a family-run business, Richard Kendall Estate Agent is all about community and celebrating success.

That doesn’t just mean matching home owners with their dream properties every day, it’s about the team playing a vital role the communities they serve around Yorkshire. And in a monthly round-up of good news, Richard Kendall is shouting out success and championing the team members who pick up the phone or help you view houses in the area.

Sponsorship and financial support

We like to put "money where its mouth is". Once again, we sponsored the Horbury Show and the Ossett Gala this year. We also sponsored one of the young players for Normanton Knight ARLFC.

Brother and sister owners Claire and Simon Kendall also love to throw their all into causes they support. Claire is heavily involved at Wakefield Hospice, where she is a trustee. She has also helped out in the hospice’s donations warehouse, with a hands-on approach to making a difference.

Simon is an athlete and loves to run – he was team leader earlier this year when 19 runners in Team RK took part in the Great North Run, raising over £7,000 from that event alone. We also continue to support MY Hospital Charity in an ongoing capacity. Personally, Simon celebrated his 6^th star medal for the Abbott World Marathon Majors in Tokyo earlier in the year.

Celebrating milestones and success

We were thrilled to win the British Property Awards for Horbury Sales, and every single member of staff played their part in delivering that success.

But there have been other milestones in the Richard Kendall offices to toast, including wedding bells in the offing for a number of staff.

David Savage, Karen Dawson, Carol Rogers and Allison Harbottle were all made Associate Directors – congratulations on the promotions! Kate Thickett was promoted to Lettings Compliance Manager as well as Kirsty Savage to Marketing Manager.

Celebrating their long service awards were Andrew Leeson, Lucy Harrison and Elizabeth Cooke, who each clocked up 10 years, David Savage marked 20 years and it was a jubilee 25 years for Carol Rogers.

Looking to the future

Claire Kendall said: “Every moment of every working day we celebrate with families when they get the keys to their new home – we are so lucky to be part of these joyful moments, so we thought we would share our own in-house successes too.”

I’ve been using Richard Kendall in Horbury to manage my buy-to-let properties and have been extremely impressed with the service, particularly from Alice. As a landlord, what I value most is having someone I can trust to simply get things dealt with properly, without me having to constantly chase or get involved. Alice is excellent in this respect. She’s professional, responsive, proactive and always keeps me informed when something needs my attention. She clearly understands lettings from a landlord’s perspective and makes the whole process straightforward. Any issues are handled quickly and efficiently, communication is excellent, and I have complete confidence that my properties and tenants are being looked after properly. Having dealt with various people and businesses in the property sector over the years, genuinely good service stands out. Alice is a real credit to Richard Kendall and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the Horbury team to other landlords looking for a reliable managing agent. Five stars and thoroughly deserved.

Amanda Holt was absolutely amazing at handling the sale of our house. Every step of the way she kept us informed and updated us the minute she heard any news and was super lovely. Everything was swift, easy and stress free and I would highly recommend them. Thank you so much again. Eleanor 14/09/2026

We had a lovely experience with Miranda at Richard Kendall. She was so helpful throughout the whole process and always kept us updated. Everything felt well organised, which made buying our home so much easier. We’re very happy with the service we received and absolutely love our new home! Thank you Miranda for all your help, we would happily recommend you. Karolina 12/09/2026

Karen at Richard Kendall Pontefract has been nothing short of exceptional. Due to a number of reasons my house was on and off the market a number of times. Most people could have given up hope but Karen was amazing. She was a great source of support, she understood my situation and thankfully we did get my house sold. I’ve no doubt that’s down to Karen. She provided a truly personal and amazing service and made sure I was at ease throughout. I can’t thank Karen and the team enough. I’d highly recommend Richard Kendall to anyone. They will look after you and make your home selling journey stress free. Thanks Karen. SH 12/09/2026

Jessica has been absolutely fantastic throughout the whole process. She has always been very receptive to our queries, responding promptly and efficiently, and has been proactive in progressing the tenancy agreement with our new tenants. She is a genuinely lovely person to deal with, and her professionalism, responsiveness and helpful approach have made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Amazing service—thank you, Jessica!
