Eastley Estates and Property Investment Ltd Avis 

Ryan sold us a property where he knew the other party and didnt inform us. Probably took a fee from them too without informing us.

The property had a hole and huge leak in the roof and he told us he checked the entire property and it was a sound investment and only needed a lick of paint and new carpets. When we later found evidence of mould and the leak, he refused to come and meet us at the property to explain what happened. The roofers that we got to do the work told us this hole was visible if whoever checked had opened the attic and was there for years.

He concealed the fact that the roof needed work to ensure the "numbers" worked. Extremely disappointed in our experience with Ryan. If you choose to work with him, due your due diligence on the property, ask questions about the sellers, view the property and get a survey done. DO NOT take him at his word. I wouldn't pay him a penny till you get a tenant in because I saw his work ethic or the lack of it, when the problem surfaced.

Apart from this we got a valuation which was approx 15% less than what he told us to expect and we spent more than double on the renovations (11k became 24.5k). Rent was 15% less than he said would be standard. Property went untenanted for 6 months because of the damp and leak and he told us that we just had to bring the rent down. So this property was nothing but a loss for us.

He charged us a project management fee for the refurb and left a mess in the kitchen and living room that took 6 months to fix.

Don't fall for his made up "numbers". If he pressures you to sign his contract while you are doing your due diligence, recognise it for the pressure tactic it is. Only person who made money in our deal was Ryan Eastley.

Ryan sourced and Project Managed a BRR on a 2 bed terraced property in Aberdare for me

Communication was great throughout, very easy to get hold of with any questions and guided me through the process of my first BRR

Really happy with the quality of the refurb aswell which has been done within the initial budget and is now ready to go on the market

Worked with Ryan on numerous projects. Great guy with excellent communication skills & having previous experience as a tradesman he also has valuable “on site”knowledge.

I, as a solicitor, have had the opportunity of handling the legal aspects of property transaction for clients that have utilised Ryan's services. Ryan will always periodically check in with me on progress and will assist to progress matters with agents and brokers. I have found him to be courteous and professional in his approach to the legal conveyancing process.

Ryan has an eye for the details and finds some great deals here is South Wales. A trusted and transparent property professional!

Ryan has always been pro active with us and has followed through on what he says. He's consistently delivered and is a well networked to help find solutions to problems.

So I did spend a long time taking a number of screenshots as “proof” however it looks like the option to post pictures has been removed by the business.

Deal 1: Ryan failed to add up the costs of the renovation, rounded it down by 3,000 which then meant the money left in was over 16k and the return figures were over inflated advised as over 18% but in reality they were 7.1%.

Also he gave a figure of 130k for GDV showing sold comparables in different areas with gardens, even though there were sold comparables on the same street renovated for under 100k

Deal 2: Was a great deal and I wanted to go ahead with however Ryan had got the information wrong and the house couldnt be converted to a 3bedroom house as he suggested, so this fell through.

Deal 3: This was the killer, Ryan advertised the property as being worth 130k which was good as the sold comparables were 120k - 125k so not massively out. However upon speaking to my own broker I was advised that because it was a terraced house on a high street next to two commercial units it would be downvalued by 10-15%. Ryan admitted that he knew this but never put that into the GDV. Ryan has actually gone in the dropbox and reduced all the numbers on this deal today, probably in the hopes that I wouldnt screenshot and post on socials (I have the screenshots before and after now). We nearly ended up with a cash buy here and would have been left with a lot of cash left in the house making very poor returns.

Overall all of the deals did not hit the 18% ROI he promises in the contract.

After all these deals fell through due to either overinflated numbers, or just falsely advertised returns. I assume he thinks people won’t calculate and do due diligence? I asked for a refund which is promised in the initial call. Then he started ignoring messages and it took 3 days. At first he tried to keep £800 of the fee, but finally agreed to refund 90% after being threatened with legal action.

Do not trust this cowboy. Ensure you do your due diligence and do not hand over money before seeing anything (lesson learnt for us). Also people from local areas comment on his post saying the values are very overinflated, trust these locals and don’t be left holding the bag.

Bad experience just at the beginning of the journey I’d dread to think how bad this could have gone if anything happened further into a project.

Ill try to figure out a way to post screenshots of everything above as proof.

Worked wi the Ryan on my first BRRR, went really well. Found Ryan far more professional than other sourcers which is why I felt comfortable working with him over others.

Solid deal, good investment and always happy to help.

On our first project with Ryan and his team we are really happy so far, we live in Cornwall so having his team that can build our portfolio for us in South Wales is really helpful. Great communication and here’s to many more projects together.

Five stars well and truly deserved for Ryan. Great at communication and excellent property handover.

I have known Ryan for a little while now and have worked with him on several property deals. His communication is excellent and I’m looking forward to collaborating with him in more deals soon!

Ryan has a huge knowledge within the property industry , Ryan sources a plethora of deals for us and we can’t thank him enough , if your looking at investments look no further !

I’ve recently started working with Ryan and he’s by far the most diligent and proactive property sourcer I’ve worked with. Very communicative and transparent, he puts you at ease that you’re dealing with a professional who wants to provide a great service to his clients. I look forward to continuing our work together and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to grow a property portfolio.

If there’s one thing that winds me up, it’s bad communication. You ask a question or need an answer and have to wait and wait for a response. Ryan is the opposite. He’s on the ball. Communication is often instant after asking something. I’ve invested in R2R with Ryan and enjoying a much better return than I can get elsewhere. He comes highly recommended 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Whilst I am only on my first property investment with Ryan, so far the process has been has smooth. Ryan is professional and efficient, always available to discuss and advise if needed.
He understands the local area and has a good networks of contacts in order to assist in sourcing, purchase, refurbishment and letting.
Hopefully this is the start of a mutually benefitting partnership as I am enjoying it all so far.

When it comes to hands off property investing Ryan and Eastley Estates is the company to choose.
Ryan was able to find me a property within my budget for the purpose and rebuild stage.
I was able to refinance at a great rate.

The customer service was amazing, from phone calls to text.

Thank you Ryan, Top man.

Ryan has been very professional through out the process, we are so impressed we are now looking at our third property with him , his always quick to reply and does not mind answering any questions that may pop up.
We are looking forward to growing our portfolio with him .

We have worked with Ryan on multiple projects, and continue to do so.
Highly professional and great comminication

Ryan is calm and assuring to work with. He is contactable whenever suits me and always responds positively. Always can get hold of an investment opportunity whenever needed.

Enjoying the journey so far with ryan, I get updated at each stage of the process. Professional and clear with what needs to be executed
