GoogleThe team at Davis Tate have been fantastic, the sale of our property has thrown up a fair few challenges for us all. However John, Kirsty and Oliver have been so supportive and positive through out the processes. They have kept us well informed and shown a high level of professionalism throughout. Highly recommend Davis Tate Wantage
Thank you for your kind words it’s been a pleasure working with you

GoogleOur experience with Davis Tate has been fantastic. Since relocating Kirsty has been phenomenal, from initial communication to any query/ issue along the way, she has always been keen to help and truly understand our requirements on a personal level, not just as a tenant on the book. This includes finding our second rental property within the area, ensuring every step in the process is dealt with quickly and efficiently.
Hi Heidi, thank you for your kind words

GooglePreviously, to the conveyancing with David-Tate, I had a fairly low opinion of estate agents. Generally, I’ve had an impression of estate agents being too busy to really care or bother with any actual personal service. However, Oliver and Kirsty have made me reevaluate my views. They listened to our feedback and advised us to see a house that we snapped up straight away. Through the process they were professional and honest and I will have no hesitation using them again or recommending them to others.
Hi Sanjay, thank you for your kind words. We are very pleased that we have been able to help you find your next home, we wish you every happiness there. From Kirsty & Oliver.

I have recently rented a small flat via Davis Tate. The service has been helpful and professional and I would fully recommend them, both to future tenants and landlords. The flat is beautifully clean and when there was a slight electrical problem, it was sorted within 24 hours. Very impressed by both Danial and Caroline.

TrustpilotAppalling experience with Davies Tate Shinfield
Appalling experience with Davies Tate Shinfield. I have been trying to sell my house with them for almost 10 months. The buyer they found first had no mortgage sorted and they haven't checked his financial situation, I had to chase them all the time to find out that people are playing me up. The second buyer they found and told me have a great financial situation haven't got mortgage and despite they knew about it (I found out accidentally that there is a problem with the mortgage) nobody told me the truth and I wasted time and money! The solicitors they recommend would ignore you for days, their mortgage advisor is clearly not capable to assess the potential buyers - stay away from them at all costs unless you want to waste months and months trying to buy or sell your property!

allAgentsGood local selling
I used Davis Tate to sell a property and they followed my instructions superbly achieving a very good price in excess of a recommendation from another local agent. Their communication is good and they successfully sold the house for me.
Thank you for your comments, Peter. I\'m delighted we were able to achieve the best result for you and for everyone concerned.
5/5
GoogleTotally positive from start to finish, Charlie and his team kept us informed at all stages, found the right buyer (we bought the house through them 11 years ago) and were the right fit for the type of house we were selling, especially compare to other local 'highly rated' agents. Totally recommend them.
5/5
GoogleJames Harrison provided quite possibly the most immaculate house viewing i've had - the communication was fantastic, but not pushy, and all information was provided well in advance. At the property itself, James was clearly extremely well prepared, with all information to hand - and details for each and every room - he'd done his homework, that's for sure. Thanks for being a Pro
Thank you so much for your comments, Mike. That's very gratifying to hear

GoogleWhen renting a property, you don't choose the estate agency that is renting it. Well, for sure i would not go for this agency in Didcot. And do not recommend them. We are good tenants, we keep everything clean and would understand if a portion of our deposit was retained for something being broken or not given back in a good state etc. However, we rented a property with Davis Tate and when it came to move out, they tried to steal money from our deposit for no reasons. We spoke to their head office in Reading, to the director of the office branch and set up a former complain. We left the house in excellent state, cleaned it properly and we were told that about 60% of our deposit was to be retained because the cleaning was according to them, not of a professional standard. We left the house in a cleaner state than when we moved it. When we moved in, the washing machine was discusting and we had to spend over 1 hour cleaning it. The wardrobe doors upstairs had yellow stains that took several products to remove etc. There were cowebs, windows were dirty, carpet needed a good hoovering etc. We spent hours cleaning the house when we moved out and made sure the house was in a very good cleaning state. They also said that we had drilled 2 holes in the living room, which was false. We realised that a previous tenant had done these, by looking at old ads of the same property that were still on the web. A mirror had been put there before. This agency in Didcot will try to steal money from you!! We eventually managed to get the full deposit back when we said we would go to small claims. At the condition to not say anything about it all.. . Well, i think it is important to share our experience, whether they like it or not!!
Thank you for sharing your concerns which you previously raised with us at the end of your tenancy. We are pleased that we were able to resolve those concerns to your satisfaction and that your deposit was returned with the agreement of the landlord. If there is anything else you would like to raise please do contact myself, Martin Hembra, Lettings Director, Davis Tate
5/5
GoogleFantastic service from the team. The team were great when we moved in 2019 and everything gone to plan. I recently contacted Matt and his team to assist with leasing the property earlier to allow us moving out. Fantastic service from the entire team considering they didn’t need to do all this. They have gone above and beyond to secure a new tenant and kept us updated regularly. Thank you Matt and to your wider Didcot team. You have made our move a lot smoother over the last couple of weeks.
Thank you Johan, all the best for the future.

We've used the Reading branch to both buy and then sell 10 years later. Charlie's team are professional and always made sure to keep us informed as to what was going on. Couldn;t recommend them highly enough. Fees were also very reasonable.

GoogleIf you are looking to looking for a lettings agency in Oxfordshire, please take the time and read my review. I promise it will be worth it. My family and I have relocated from the North, a considerable distance, during the pandemic, with a baby and a cat. So stressful and overwhelming to say the least. I have dealt with agencies before so my expectations were low, but when I actually started to look for a house in Oxfordshire, almost all agents were even worse than what I expected. From cancelled viewings on the day, to promising they call and never calling, you name it, I had it. I was so stressed and upset. And then came Davis Tate. Our interactions were mainly with Dominic, but I did speak with other agents at time. From the very beginning the interaction was impeccable. We could not travel so far with the baby just for a viewing, so Dominic was very understanding and facilitated a video tour. He was incredibly prompt. He replies to emails in a matter of minutes, not even hours. If he says he will call, he calls. Every step of the way he called me to explain what was happening or what had been accomplished on the day. It was fast and easy. We rented the house without seeing it and we were so nervous about that. Especially with a baby, you want it to be safe, you want it to be warm, you want it to be clean. When we saw the house, we were speechless. It is everything we wanted and more. It was spotless and exactly as described and seen in the video and photos. Dominic found out we were travelling the day before and staying in a hotel so he actually made arrangements for us to skip that and pick up the keys that afternoon. He waited for us until 5:40pm. They even got us a welcome goodie pack. I tried to do this agency justice with this review but I don't think I can describe how incredibly thankful I am. Just incredible and outstanding service from start to finish. Thank you Davis Tate and thank you Dominic!
Thank you so much for your kind review. We will be sure to pass this on to Dominic.
