Romans - Tilehurst

Excellent help and support from Steve Chitty, Mark Porter and Nathan Poulter. Felt really secure in the knowledge that we had a team of very professional staff dealing with our issue. Particular Thanks for Nathan, who was always there to talk to and who always provided help support and advise at all times. Nathan showed a lot of patients and understanding of our issue and is a credit to Romans.

I have been working with Donna recently on some maintenance issues at the flat I let out. I have been very impressed with her enthusiasm, professionalism and efficiency. She is always very friendly and cheerful which makes dealing with her a pleasure. Keep up the good work! :-)

This has one of the most warm agents in Reading. I would like to specially highlight Nathan Poulter. As renting a house flat first time, he never frowned or shied away to explain intricacies and bridge the understanding. He is very kind, helpful, empathetic and genuine person.

I am looking for a genuine transaction and the Estate agent Romans (Ms. Lowis or Lois) expects me to send my mortgage details and agreement in principle to her PERSONAL email address and promised to delete the mail after she see's it before entertaining me. Looks like a scam operation under a legitimate business. stay awayNegativeProfessionalism

For those who are looking for a serious and transparent agency with good service, I strongly recommend the Romans Estate Agents. Lucky, the responsible for our renting process was very agile, helpful and gave us all the necessary support so we could rent the house we wanted in the time we needed. I am very satisfied with the services provided.

Was considering transferring properties…

Was considering transferring properties at Romans. Not after dealing with the manager Charlotte. Nasty and clearly has a vendetta. Tried politely serving notice for a contract that runs out in January after dealing with a poor experience from her. Being told I can’t leave even through my contract runs out in January. Wouldn’t even bother.

First experiences with Romans

Lloyd has taken us through the initial stages of getting our house to market with a positive, confident approach which has realistically emphasised the strong features of our house. He has been organised and diligent in arranging the paperwork, photographer and the initial listing.

HELPFUL AND EFFICIENT

The staff arranged a purchase and a let for me and were extremely helpful. My main contact for the let was Anais Payne​ who not only provided a very polite and efficient service, but helped greatly with my lack of understanding of use of todays technology.

Romans are the worst letting agent in history. Please don't complain, because they won't listen, please don't complain, because they will not listen, please don't complain, because they do not care at all. This useless, child run, organisation needs a huge reality check plus, someone with balls to run it.

Romans have let me down as a landlord…

Romans have let me down as a landlord and also my tenants. I needed to sell my rental property due to a change in my financial circumstances. I asked Romans to let my tenants know before they renewed for another year that I would sell after that year was up. This gave them over a year to find a new place which I thought was important as they have a small child. I told Romans if my tenants didn’t want to rent for another year I would just sell.Romans told me tenants were fine with this, wanted to renew but wanted a different contract with a different break structure. I agreed to this and suggested a one month notice for my tenants to give in case they found something, with me giving 3 months for their protection. I served notice on my tenants in Jan. I then spoke to them directly about the logistics for sale and found out Romans had not followed my wishes to let them know my plans. In fact, they had asked and the letting agent had told them I had no plans to sell. In addition Romans called my tenants to arrange end of tenancy checks before they even had notice issued - someone put it through the door a couple of hours later. I spoke to the lettings manager verbally in office and a week later via email with my concerns. To date I have no response so I’ve had to escalate further within Romans. Incredibly poor service which sadly has caused great stress. Funnily enough I am using a different Wokingham agent to sell my property who is restoring my faith and also being incredibly respectful to my tenants during this process.

Hassle free management

I have just sold my flat but throughout the period renting it out Kimberley Garcia Jones has always been a very helpful manager and all in all the management process made things relatively hassle free for me. Thanks.

Shocking Customer Service.

Romans customer service is absolutely shocking. Communication is awful, they have not replied to my friends email regarding her deposit for a number of days despite this being sent to 4 different people and has been chased on numerous occasions. Her whole experience with his company has been disgraceful and they do not care about customers at all. This is not the first time I have heard of Romans providing an awful service and would not recommend them to anyone!
