I recently had the pleasure of working with Ella Woods, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the experience. Her attention to detail and friendly demeanor made the entire process of finding and securing a rental property incredibly smooth and stress-free. Ella was always prompt in her responses and went above and beyond to ensure that all my questions were answered. Her professional and efficient approach made me feel confident and well-supported throughout the entire process. I am truly grateful for her dedication and excellent service. If you are looking for a reliable and personable realtor, I highly recommend Ella. Thank you, Ella and Savills, for your outstanding work! Best regards, Kateryna

We had the delight of working with Ella to secure our first property. After having some awful experiences with other letting agency, working with Ella at Savills changed this around for us. She was helpful from day one, clear communicator, and worked efficiently. We were always kept in the loop, she was always available for any questions and our minds were at ease as we are first time renters. Thanks so much Ella!

Renting in the U.K. is beyond challenging, can be exceptionally overwhelming and is an excruciatingly frustrating experience, which can leave a person extremely disheartened. Many Agents don't bother contacting you back and by the time you have called them (again), the property you are calling about has already been let. Thankfully there are Agents like Ella Woods from Savills. Ella is the ONLY Agent that has gone out of her way to keep in contact with me, and I can honestly say, is the ONLY Agent that actually cares about her clients. Ella has consistently called me, on her own accord, to enquire as to whether I am still searching for rental accommodation. She has provided some valuable insight to increase my chances of securing a property - information that no other Agent has ever volunteered. If there were more agents like Ella, I'm convinced that many renters would no longer perceive renting in the U.K. as a nightmarish experience. Thank you, Ella, for your exceptional dedication and commitment to helping me find the ideal rental home. For anyone else looking to rent, please do not hesitate to call Savills and ask to speak to Ella.

As renters, we had a great experience using Savills. Ella looked after us from the start. She knew everything about the house we viewed, was so good with phone calls and emails keeping us updated through the rental process. What a refreshing change compared to some of the other estate agents we had met. Thank you Ella, what a credit to Savills.

Outstanding Service from Ella at Saville, Reading We recently had the pleasure of working with Ella from Saville in Reading for our apartment rental needs, and I must say, she exceeded all our expectations. Ella was not just efficient but also incredibly quick in responding to our queries. Her proficiency in handling our concerns made the entire process smooth and stress-free. What stood out the most was Ella’s respectful communication, especially important to us as elderly clients. She navigated us through the increasingly complex rental procedures with patience and clarity, ensuring we understood each step. The meticulous checks conducted by estate agents today to verify the legitimacy of funds can be overwhelming, but Ella managed everything with exceptional professionalism. Ella’s dedication and expertise are truly commendable. We felt very fortunate to have her guidance and support during this time. Her approachable demeanor and unwavering commitment to her clients make her a remarkable agent. For anyone in need of an estate agent, we cannot recommend Ella highly enough. She is not just an agent; she is a reliable and trustworthy partner in your property journey.

We rented with Savills for about a year, the five star review is for their front house. Me and my partner ended up having quite a lot of problems with the management side and were not able to get hold of them for quite a while but their front house manager Ella Woods has been an absolute godsend, she has escalated our issues multiple times, went out of her way to ensure we would get a response when nobody was getting back to us and has gone above and beyond, I couldn’t be more grateful for her. She also arranged a cleaner for us when ours messed us about and has been our point of contact throughout. She even contacted me during her annual leave and even during out of office hours!!! She’s an amazingly caring person who has changed our experience completely even when it wasn’t necessarily her job. Thank you Ella you’re an absolute star, they’re lucky to have you x

I recently had the pleasure of working with Ella Wood from Savills Reading Estate Agency, and I cannot speak highly enough of the exceptional service she provided in helping us find and rent a flat in Huntley Wharf. From start to finish, Ella's professionalism, expertise, and dedication made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Once we decided on Huntley Wharf, Ella's professionalism truly shone. She expertly negotiated with the landlord on our behalf, ensuring that all our requirements were met and that the terms of the lease were fair and reasonable. Her exemplary communication skills meant that we were always kept informed of any developments and that any queries or concerns we had were promptly addressed. In summary, Ella Wood from Savills Reading Estate Agency is an exceptional real estate professional who exceeded our expectations in every aspect.

I would highly recommend Ella to anyone in need of a reliable, knowledgeable, and trustworthy agent to assist them in finding their ideal rental property.

I’ve rented with some agencies in the past but nothing compares to Savills. Ella Woods took care of the renting situation, from beginning to the end. She has been outstanding. Starting from the level of care provided by her and her team, with their professionalism, empathy and efficiency when conducting a tenancy process. Renting can be a stressful journey, but she put me at ease at all times by communicating efficiently and getting the tenancy smoothly sorted. She is such a great asset to Savills and I am so grateful for her support throughout this whole process! Also big thanks to Luke Richardson who conducted the viewing and my past tenancy with Savills 2021-2022. Yours sincerely, Laila Bahhar

I want to express my gratitude for the exceptional service provided by Ella and team throughout our home letting journey. As new comers to UK, moving from Dubai (where everything is a cakewalk), I and my family faced numerous challenges, but your invaluable assistance made the process smoother. The team efficiently managed the entire process of reference and background checks, coordinating with all relevant parties, and get the deal signed on time. Without you, can’t imagine how difficult to let a house for new comers. Thanks again.

We worked with Ella at the Reading office to view properties. She was excellent - punctual, was very knowledgeable of the area and the amenities. She showed us a variety of different properties that had been released to make sure that we picked the right one for us. Her communication was second to none and we were able to get everything approved in a short space of time. Thank you so much Ella for all your help. Would 100% recommend Ella to help you in your property search.
