August 2018 Very Disappointing! On their website it is claimed: “Phil’s enthusiasm and passion for exemplary customer service has built him a solid reputation and repeat clients.” I am afraid to say our experience was very different. Let me hasten to say at the outset that I am well aware that the housing market is very sluggish right now and my complaint is not about Davis Tate’s failure to sell our property. After our first meeting I was very hopeful, as Phil seemed to be living up to his reputation for providing enthusiastic customer service and we agreed to give him sole agency for four weeks. After we had approved the photographs, it was nearly a week before anything appeared online. (With our new agents it took just a couple of hours.) It took another three weeks before our house featured on the advertisement board at the Davis Tate offices in Abingdon. At our initial meeting, we asked, and Phil agreed, to leave a business card each time he brought clients to the house. Not once did this happen. He did bring clients around on a number of occasions but, unless we phoned him and asked, we were never offered any feedback. We had no idea what potential buyers did or did not like. Just as the 4 week sole agency was about to expire, Phil telephoned to ask if he could bring clients around the following Saturday. Naturally we agreed. The same thing happened the following week, so again we agreed. At this point we were about to go on holiday for 3 weeks so it was not feasible to bring other estate agents on board at that stage. After deciding to reduce the asking price to expedite the sale, my husband went in to see Phil. At this meeting he enquired why no ‘For Sale’ signs had been erected at our property. Phil claimed he hadn’t realised this was the case which, in my view, is unacceptable, it is part of the service one expects and he did have one made within a couple of days. After returning from holiday, my husband emailed Phil to inform him that we were revoking his sole agency which by this time had lasted for 10 rather than 4 weeks. He did not have the courtesy to respond. Within 48 hours of that email however, our online adverts had been removed and our ‘For Sale’ notice had been removed from the Davis Tate window; in that regard he was very quick and efficient. So, for all these reasons my advice would be to go elsewhere if you are serious about getting good service and selling your house.

Excellent! Emily’s exceptionally friendly helpful and professional service made the re-letting of my house a very positive experience. She was always available to help and advise and is a real credit to her agency. I would not hesitate to recommend her to other landlords.

The initial valuation visit in our house was from manager Phil and he was also accompanied by a colleague. Together they gave a professional, positive and realistic assessment that led us to decide for Davis Tate to market our family home. Throughout the process of the subsequent successful sale the staff in the Abingdon office kept us informed at every stage in a personal and professional manner. Warmly recommended.

What a professional, helpful, knowledgeable, and friendly service we have received from Phil over the last few months. My husband and I couldn't be happier with the help, advice and speed in which Phil has dealt with our complicated house sale. From the initial consultation and valuation; his professional photographer worthy photos of our property; to his cheerful, positive manner; all the way through to exchange. (Our house in fact selling within 24 hours) He did what he said, when he said he would; kept us informed; going above and beyond on several occasions. He has been exceptional on all levels. Taking the time to explain things in detail and make sure we were happy every step of the way. He has made what could have been a very stressful situation (myself also being 6 months pregnant) easy, straightforward and handled it in such a way that I have had the utmost confidence in him and his capabilities as our agent from start to finish. I have found his support these last few months unwavering. It's nice to know there's still some genuine, honest, helpful people around. Phil is definitely one of the good guys!

AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Having been on the market for sale with another local agent for over 5 months without any offers, I decided to instruct Christina and her team to sell my property. Within 2 weeks we had agreed an offer negotiated incredibly well by Christina. I thoroughly recommend these guys to anyone who is looking for a personal, yet pro-active and professional estate agent to sell their home! Well done Davis Tate Abingdon!

I was recommended the Davis Tate Financial advisor Chris Pledge to deal with my sons complicated mortgage arrangements and not disappointed... He not only did a house visit Friday night but dealt with the paperwork in the office Sunday morning. He certainly shows how proficient he is in a relaxed confident manner. The 5 year offer was eventually finalised and a wonderful deal after all his hard work. Well recommended Emily Thompson. Thanks again.

Wonderful team! We have been tenants with Davis Tate for 5 years. From finding the property initially and throughout the whole time we have been in our flat, everyone has been professional and helpful. Warren Stein and Charlotte Nicol have been our main contacts and are always so friendly and helpful. I'd definitely recommend Davis Tate in the future.

Davis Tate acted swiftly to send an engineer over within hours of reporting a faulty pump and shower over the bank holiday weekend. I had received both an email and phone call to advise me the engineer would be over shortly. All services were fully restored on the same day. The speed of execution to rectify issues when reporting a problem with Davis Tate is first class.

Davis Tate have been amazing, from letting us a property 2 years ago, through the tenancy, and then buying our own property with them . From check in to check out, and buying through to completion. They are friendly, helpful, informative and so very easy to talk to and ask those questions you need to ask. The entire staff are amazing , and I would really recommend them , but in particular my thanks go out to Matt, Sallie and Tanya for going above and beyond with their care, due diligence and support. Plus their conveyancing team with Karen were effortless and efficient too.

The entire staff at Davis Tate were excellent throughout the purchasing process. We felt so welcomed and supported by Kelly and the rest of the team that we went through their suggested mortgage and solicitor firms and we were not disappointed. This is our first home and Davis Tate truly made it as stress free and special as we could have hoped. We enjoyed the bubbles too!

We had excellent service from the Sonning Common and the Goring Office. The marketing and selling of the house was efficient and effective. The real value of the service came later when the staff, and in particular Julie Norman at the Sonning Common office, spent a lot of time and effort monitoring the progress of the houses in the chain towards exchange, "encouraging" them to keep moving forward, and keeping us informed.

Lee has provided an excellent personal service and I'm sure without his dilligence in chasing through the chain there would not have been the successful conclusion there was.
