Dealt with Jane Matthews regarding the letting of our house in Reading. Can't praise Jane enough for her prompt and efficient service, and her friendly and positive approach. Has been a pleasure to deal with.

We just bought a house through Davis Tate. James dealt with the sale and was brilliant. Communication was great throughout the whole process, he always got back to us very quickly and was proactive in driving the process forward. We're very grateful for his great service and have been recommending him to friends and family who are considering moving.

My son purchased an apartment through Davis Tate recently and the service we received from Sam and Kevin in Reading was very good indeed. As was the mortgage advice and legal services.

Cannot recommend Davis Tate enough. Many agents distance themselves once an offer has been accepted but the team at Davis Tate were absolutely instrumental throughout the entire sale process.

Dear Donavan, thank you for the lovely review - is there any specific member of staff you'd like to give praise to?

Did not stay in one of their properties myself, but my girlfriend did. She is not so much into online reviews, so I thought I would just share her experience. During the check-in inventory, many ridiculous mistakes were made...twice! She asked for the inventory to be re-done after a disastrous first attempt and the second go was hardly better. Bear in mind, the flat did not have many items to note down. After the first breakdown of costs, suddenly more expenses appeared. You may be shielded against these issues with the new rules on rental agencies' fees, but it shows their bad faith. And now the juicy part: just a few weeks after moving in, my girlfriend noticed some mold stains on a few walls. The agency's reply was to paint over them (standard response). The concierge mentioned that the flat above had had a massive leakage a year before. We thought it would be a small leftover of humidity that had small patches of mold grow, so I recommend my girlfriend to crank up the heat and have the last bits of water removed. Ha! The mold expanded and started growing on several walls. The agency carried on ignoring the problem and telling my girlfriend to paint over the stains. We had a hygiene officer from the city council assess the situation and he measured humidity above reasonable threshold on half the surface of the affected walls. This means that for a whole year before my gf moved in nothing, absolutely nothing at all, had been done to dry up the walls and to prevent a plague-like mold expansion. The agency refused several times to let her move out on account of the 6months break clause not been effective yet. Just when actual items, i.e. clothes and guitars were covered in mold and we were threatening with legal actions, then they let her go. 5 months with Davies Tate, have been absolute hell for her and for myself. She even developed a chronic coughing, which surely was caused by the stress of moving and starting a new job, but was just as surely aggravated by third world-like hygiene conditions. You could say this experience properly davies-tated her.. I will get even started on the baffling lack of politeness and professionalism overall. It's a whole new dedicated review

We were very impressed and happy with the customer service we received from Daniel Ashton during our recent house sale, and would not hesitate to recommend him. His approach was professional yet friendly, and all queries were dealt with promptly and efficiently.

For those who have lived in a Victorian terrace, or any property built in the 19th century, you'll know the amount of upkeep they often demand. To live comfortably in such a property as a tenant, you require an efficient, friendly, punctual and reliable property manager. Luckily for us, Jane Matthews at the Reading office has been exactly that for my partner and I. Not only did this make maintenance and repairs far less stressful, but it allowed us to genuinely enjoy our time in the house and appreciate it's character. My sincerest thanks! N

Nearly one month after moving into my new apartment, I have been thoroughly impressed with Davis Tate. From the move-in and the continued support I have been met with friendly professional help, and everyone is willing to go the extra-mile. In particular, Suzanne Day and Sarah Sanders during our initial move-in and Jane Matthews for our ongoing support.

During our check out process, we dealt with Jane Matthews. This was an anxious time for us as we felt we had taken good care of the house we had rented for 4 years and had not gone through such a formal check-out process anywhere else. I'm glad we were dealing with Jane as she communicated with us clearly and regularly, put our minds at ease about the whole process, kept us informed of timescales and outcomes and just generally made the whole process stress-free. Thank you Jane!

An Estate Agent I would recommend to anyone in the area looking to buy, sell or rent. I had the pleasure of dealing with a few people there, Charlotte, Sam, Charlie and Kevin and I have to say that they were all very professional and pro active. I was always given feedback from the point of making an offer, right through to the exchange, being today! Having been an estate agent in the past, I know how important it is to keep all parties in the loop at all times and the guys at Davis Tate did that perfectly. If I need to use an estate agent again, I know where I'll be going. Thank you to everyone there.

Reading branch is excellent. They were supportive throughout the entire process. Sam, Kevin and Charlie were able to get the answers to my questions really promptly. Communication was really effective and they went extra mile to assist me. I also recommend Ali's services. He assisted me in choosing the right mortgage scheme. I am really thankful to the team for making my first purchase so smooth, stress-free and exciting.
