GoogleThe service provided by Davis Tate through the whole process of buying a house was fantastic. They are very well organised, professional, friendly but most of all their proactive communication and responsiveness. Kelly in particular ensured that all parties were communicating and she worked hard to solve any issues that came up immediately. Thanks so much for the incredible service! Christian.

GoogleWe moved from Hertfordshire to Hampshire and Davis Tate was the estate agent managing the purchase of our property. Throughout the whole process Brian was outstanding - knowledgeable, experienced, straight-talking and very helpful and supportive. Kelly was super responsive, friendly and a joy to deal with. It was a move with the additional pressure of the stamp duty deadline and Davis Tate were superb in helping us navigate the whole process. Would recommend them highly.
Hi Ludo, Thank you very much for your kind words, hope you and the family are settling well and if you are ever passing, please pop in and say hi. Regards Brian

GoogleI would like to thank David Wrigley the Branch Manager at Didcot for working through and supporting me with a very long winded and complex sale. He was always responsive to my phone calls and messages and extremely pro-active in chasing solicitors when things needed that extra push. People often think once your property is sold the agents work is done, but it really is just the beginning and I am pleased to have someone like David driving forward right through to the very end.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Value

GoogleMy partner and I are first time buyers and as such we have spoken to a number of different local estate agents. Davis Tate have been head and shoulders above the rest with regards to customer service and general ease of transaction. We have been dealing predominately with David who has been excellent, nothing is too much hassle and he is very quick to respond to questions and action offers. Having said this, we have dealt with Giselle for some viewings who has been very easy to deal with and both are able to simplify the whole house buying situation without making you feel stupid! The virtual viewing option is superb, allows you to understand the layout of the property without needing to actually view. We found having the estate agent on hand to talk us around the property really useful. Not only this, a link to the viewing is sent to you to view at your own leisure and share with family/friends to get some opinions before going for a viewing in person. Having this has really helped us figure out what we want from a property and intern, make a decision on a property offer. Physical viewing of the properties again has been second to none. In current climate they are obviously very Covid-19 aware with hand sanitizing required on entering and exiting the property. Both David and Giselle were great during the viewings. There was not any 'hard sale pitch' from either agent. Instead they allowed us to look around the property at our own pace and were on hand to answer any questions that we had. After viewing it was refreshing that they were not straight on the phone asking what we thought of the properties but allowed us the time to discuss between ourselves. Whilst writing this review I actually received a call from David stating that our offer had been accepted on the property that we wanted. From this point David told us what would be required in terms of various forms of ID. We knocked on the office door with our paperwork and Matt assisted in scanning it all across, again great interaction and service from all at Davis Tate. We would have no hesitation at all on recommending Davis Tate for first time buyers. The process has been clear, simple and painless as possible. This is predominately due to the refreshing honesty, integrity and expert level of service we have received at Davis Tate.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism
Thanks for the lovely review Steve glad we have been able to help. Thank you for also being incredibly organised is certainly helps! David, Matt & Giselle.

5/5
GoogleSadly, after many years of having this excellent Henley firm as part of my life, it looks as if the association will be drawing to a close. First they sold me a flat, then they helped me to rent it out and manage the rental, then finally they have helped me to sell it. This latter was carried out while weathering the trials and tribulations of SARS-CoV-2. Having interacted with Davis Tate in all those different roles, I think I have met, or had telephone and email contact with everyone on the team, and they are, without exception, a wonderfully friendly, efficient, thoroughly professional group of people. Somehow, they manage to make one feel like a friend, while at the same time acting with complete professionalism. That they all do so cannot be a coincidence. This universal sense of happy proficiency must come from the top. It is, I fear, invidious to single out someone for special mention, especially when all were so good. However, that is what I am going to do, because my most recent, and by far the greatest level of interaction has been with one person: Emma Durcan. The combination of the pandemic restrictions, together with the mayhem caused by the Stamp Duty Holiday, has made this a very difficult period in which to get a property sold, overseeing all the machinations of the two sets of solicitors. Throughout all this, Emma has been in regular contact, reassuring and commiserating as appropriate, and stepping in with practical help, when appropriately directed ‘encouragement’ was required for certain solicitors. Her support was exemplary. After paying my fees, there is little more that I can do for this firm, other than to wish them well in the future, and to say that they and their employees are welcome to use any parts of this endorsement in whatever way they find useful. My thanks and very best wishes to you all.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
Thank you so much for the taking the time to write, Emma and the team, such a glowing review. It is wonderful to hear what a positive experience you have had throughout your dealings with us, firstly as a buyer, then a landlord and finally a seller. It has always been a pleasure to work with you and we wish you the very best. Thank you again, Davis Tate - Henley.
5/5
GoogleEmma did an amazing job of keeping all parties up to date, and following up on enquiries and responses. Without Emma we would have seriously struggled to exchange and complete on time, due to unresponsive conveyancers. Emma is a credit to Davis Tate, and I would highly recommend her professionalism, enthusiasm and helpfulness. Thanks Emma!PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

GoogleWe have just rented our house out through Davis Tate and found the whole process was super well organised. We received excellent support, especially from Jenny King, who gave us great advice along the way, she clearly has excellent knowledge and experience of lettings and the rental market, which I believe was key to us achieving full asking rental income and that our house was also let so quickly.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism
Thank you very much for the 5 star review, it was a pleasure working with you and we are really pleased to hear you find our process well organised and that we were able to achieve a let quickly and at asking price for you. Thanks again, Davis Tate, Henley.

GoogleWe purchased a property through Davis Tate. I found James to be friendly and informative. They were honest about our prospects of moving with the stamp duty holiday deadline in mind given their knowledge of the location and how quickly things were likely to move. Throughout the purchase James was responsive to any queries and did what he could to progress the sale to ensure we all met the stamp duty deadline.PositiveProfessionalism

GoogleWe have recently purchased a house through Davis Tate Shinfield. Right from our very first viewings; both Ben and Thomas were really helpful and knowledgeable about the property.
