Amy was absolutely wonderful and made the the whole process so easy. She was so professional but at the same time very genuine, and we got a sense that she really cared about our family. Couldn’t have asked for a better person to guide us through the rental process.

I recently had the opportunity to work with Anais Payne as my house agent during the process of renting a property. Overall, my experience with Anais was positive.Anais demonstrated good communication skills throughout the transaction. She was responsive to my inquiries and kept me informed about the progress of the rent. She promptly addressed my concerns and provided clear explanations when needed. Her knowledge of the real estate market and local regulations was evident, and she provided valuable insights and guidance during the process.I would recommend working with Anais.

Repeat Customer!

Tom was a pleasure to deal with.He took the time to explain the process in detail, provided me with relevant information on the local housing market and there was no pressure to instruct Romans.We are very happy with the service previously provided when we sold before and are confident we will receive the same again!

Hat tip to Kim and her efforts of late

My partner and I have been tenants at the same property for four years that is and has always been managed by Romans. Kim, our property manager, is due a shout out for the hours she puts in to looking after our flat, tenancy and rights since she took over our tenancy. It feels as though Kim ensures our landlord and ourselves are well informed, looked after, heard and reasonable. Whilst there have been a few maintenance issues over the years with one particular issue persisting, Kim has made us feel like resolving it is a priority (as I expect she does for everyone when it is a legal requirement to have said issue rectified, which it is in our case) and although it must be arduous and repetitive she’s professional, persistent and stays in contact. I have no doubt that she has a fair and decisive approach to her work (but she’s also a good crack on the phone).

Romans is absolutely the worst ever

Romans is absolutely the worst lettings agent I’ve ever ever had the displeasure to deal with.They've left my tenancy property unmaintained, denied liability for fixing them including heating during winter, charged extortionate fees for cleaning, and followed up with communications months later and charged for poor communications during arbitration. Utterly clueless communications and without a care for tenants in the world.I've also sold several properties - both with Romans and without high street real-estate agent in the UK myself - don't bother with high street real-estate agents if this lot are anything to go by (their agents will all get paid a flat fee anyway if your house sells for 100k more or less - hence they will all value high, then high pressure to take the 1st offer!).Instead of thousands of fees for poor service, one can easily save money by using one of many on-line sales agents that charge you literally pennies (Strike is one, there are many similar).I would strongly recommend anyone considering Romans as their lettings agent to pick another agency due to the shambolic customer service and dreadful after care. I have little doubt it will be a similar experience once you've signed for them as seller, and you will be locked in for month/s.Avoid at all costs.Happy to provide Trustpilot full documentation if required for this shambolic company.

Renters beware!

They're objectively the worst estate agents we ever had while we rented. If you consider renting a property from them (and I can't blame you, since it is important to find a property you like), read below to make sure you're not caught off guard.1) Beware of the contract. Ours assigned a compulsory +5% increase Year on Year on the rent, with no room to negotiate. So take the time to calculate how much that represents in terms of rent in 3-4 years. For us, it added about £200/month over the course of 3 years.2) Beware of the tenancy notice clause! Our contract requested 2 months notice TO END ON THE DAY RENT IS DUE! That means, if rent is due on the 5th of January and you give notice on the 6th of January, then your notice will end on the 5th of April, which would basically be 3 months notice, not 2! I let you imagine the headache in terms of aligning dates if you are moving elsewhere...3) Checking In: Make sure you take lots of date-stamped pictures (we did) and also videos. It will come in handy at the end of the tenancy. Read on. 4) In the first year, they'd warn us of an upcoming property check almost every 2 months. I checked in the contract: there is no mention of what is a reasonable amount of property checks. To add insult to injury, they'd say they'd come at some time between 9AM and 4PM (nice and vague, not helpful). 3 times, they didn't turn up. 3 times! When I got in touch to ask them to stop booking property checks, or to actually turn up, and to at least apologise for not turning up, they simply replied "yes we will be there next time". They eased off the property checks, but never apologised for wasting our time, waiting at home for them to turn up. Again, this happened 3 times.5) Checking out. We checked the contract. Nowhere did it mention that it should be professionally cleaned, so we spent several days cleaning the house to a point where it was cleaner than when we moved in. Yet, because we did the cleaning ourselves they didn't bother checking the state of the house and tried to charge us nearly £500 for deep cleaning. £500!! A good cleaner charges £12/hour. Did someone really spend 40 hours cleaning a house that had already been cleaned? The irony of it is that the cleaning company they used states: "As a minimum, you need toreturn the property as you found it (with some allowance for fair wear and tear). If the propertywas not cleaned to a professional standard when you moved in, you will generally not beobligated to professionally clean the property when you move out. Landlords cannot insist thatyou return the property in a better state compared to when you moved in." Needless to say we disputed this charge and won our case. I bet the landlords weren't pleased to be £500 out of pocket thanks to Romans!I hope this review will help you avoid these nasty pitfalls, if you rent with them. In the 3 years we rented with them, we must have had nearly 10 property managers. Make of that what you will...

Absolutely Fantastic…

My experience of Romans has been nothing but professional. The respect and courtesy afforded me was second to none. Mike and Luke went above and beyond. Their communication was succinct and they did not play games. They really have the balance right of acting for the vendor but also working with the purchaser to find acceptable middle ground.I have nothing but praise for Romans, its a pity that other estate agents are not as supportive and transparent.

Exemplary Service from Romans in Swindon

We have used Romans, formerly Dewhurst, since buying our rental property 8 years ago. In that time Christine Lancaster has excelled in looking after ourselves and our tenants with efficiency, courtesy and empathy.Dealing with and resolving any issues that arise. We are not residents in Swindon so having this reassurance that our property is well managed is vital.Thank you Christine Lancaster and keep up the good work. You are an asset to Romans Lettings in Swindon.
