Laura and the team at RJ are fantastic. They sold our bungalow and we received the full asking price - Laura, Charlie and Paul were all fantastic. Highly recommend RJ if you're looking to sell your home.

Charlie was brilliant, 5 stars, but unfortunately handover to back office wasn’t to the same standard. Communication in final throes of sale wasn’t quite so good, as contacting the office and speaking to somebody, rather than emails, was often difficult.

I have just completed with RJ. I have to say, although they were the vendors agent they were with me every step of the way. From viewing with Charlotte O, and email updates with Laura, they were with us constantly. Felt very reassured with quick timely responses. Well done and thank you!

One of the standout aspects of my experience was the exceptional communication throughout the entire process. Pasquale Mazzotta was consistently prompt in responding to my inquiries, addressing any concerns, and keeping me informed at every stage. His transparency and willingness to go the extra mile to ensure I was comfortable and well-informed truly set them apart. Moreover, Pasquale showcased an extensive knowledge of the local rental market. The expertise in navigating the intricacies of the rental market made the entire process smooth and stress-free :-).

All the team at Richard James have been so helpful and just absolutely fantastic. My particular agent has been amazing, she was kind, understanding and great with communication during a confusing time in my tenancy, always checking in as well as providing me with any additional information I requested. Have been with them over a year now and can happily say they work hard go the extra mile, would happily refer them to friends and family. Thanks again for all your hard work.

Buying or indeed selling a property in my case can be very daunting. With a large selection of people offering to help it can be a minefield that some just choose to avoid. We first met Mark back in March 23 when we decided to sell our flat, it was refreshing to get some honest feedback on pricing and market conditions, we decided to proceed and had dealings with both Mark and Hugo during the viewings process, once sold everything was passed to Laura to progress, although everybody was always happy to help. Laura was a real pleasure to deal with, always kept us up to date on the steps, was often ahead of the game when it came to chasing solicitors etc to. The whole process was as easy as I suppose it could have been, some delays at the end but nothing to do with Richard James and everybody there helped push things over the line. many thanks everyone.

I would just like to say how happy I am to move into my new property found for me by Richards James . It has exceeded my greatest expectations , and I will not be moving again , because I have found my forever home . Although the process of buying it went on for quite a while , the optimism and reassurance provided by Laura Woolley kept me confident that it would all work out well in the end . Many thanks , and I will certainly highly recommend you in the future .

Richard James Highworth provided an outstanding service to us when purchasing our home. From a very informative viewing to a smooth sales progression, they always kept us in the loop, returned every call and kept in touch almost daily until we had the keys. Special shout out to Hugo who was very helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Would highly recommend.

Recently sold my bungalow within 2 days of instructing this estate agent. Sold before it went on Rightmove. Also they recommended Superb Moves of Swindon and I could fault them. Both companies are true professionals.

Terrible terrible agency please avoid them . The stress they have caused us these days is unbelievable. The land lord want to pay for his property issues from our money . Fed up with This agency, we keep chasing our deposit , no response and no clear communication; false and irrelevant checkout report , they do not deserve any star

Karima · 24 February 2026

Agent replied · 24 March 2026

We’re genuinely disappointed to hear that you feel this way about your experience. Throughout your tenancy, we acted promptly to address all reported issues in a timely and professional manner, in line with our obligations. On occasions where matters involved leaks from external sources, these can understandably be more complex and outside of our direct control, however we continued to liaise and take appropriate steps to progress matters as efficiently as possible. We understand that a resolution has now been reached between you and the landlord, and we are pleased that this has brought matters to a close. Should you wish to discuss anything further, please feel free to contact Nicky Bint, Head of Property Management who has already reached out to you

Absolutely delighted with the service I received from Neilsons when purchasing my first home! Diane, Gill, and Sheila in particular went above and beyond to ensure that I was informed and supported every step of the way, from the initial consultation right through to post-settlement. Their expert advice, speedy updates, and thorough explanations made me feel completely at ease throughout the process, making a potentially daunting experience completely stress free. I cannot recommend this fabulous team enough. Thank you!!

Terrible service

Terrible service, they failed to list the property for two weeks then listed it incorrectly and all the search parameters were wrong. They didn't carry out the marketing campaign as advertised until we rang to complain. When we got a sale they miss handled it and caused our buyers to look elsewhere then said it was not their fault after they had contacted the buyers to say the chain wasn't complete , after they had told them, a week before that it was complete. They then said the property we were buying was likely to take a few months to find somewhere to go and the buyers started looking elsewhere. Totally miss handled. Avoid at all costs

Myself and my wife are so glad that we have managed to finalise two bedroom property to rent in Swindon . Team at Richard and James were very professional and very supporting and helpful . They made us feel very welcoming both over telephonic conversations and also when we met them face to face . Sadie was our Letting Negotiator and she was brilliant . Once again thank you very much Sadie and entire team of Richard and James for providing us with such a delightful customer experience . Delphy & Shivona
