Jade handled my move and throughout she was patient, responsive and always helpful. The chain was quite complex and Jade was on top of things all the time, resolving problems and communicating in a timely manner, ensuring we completed on the date expected. Thank you Jade.

So far, so good. We started our collaboration with RJ in May; the agency rep, Gemma Cowley, has been responsive to our messages and has solved the issues. All procedures regarding new tenancy, contract, etc., have been handled smoothly. Our experience with the team, starting with step one, scheduling the first visit until today, has been positive.

I found my move out of rented accommodation with Richard James nothing but stressful, upsetting and difficult. There were no COVID precautions put in place for viewings that I was aware of, so I felt pressured into allowing people into the house I was living in whilst also trying to keep my 5 month old daughter safe. Then once we had moved out we were still recieveing phone calls regarding viewings showing a lack of communication between staff. A week after moving out I was then appalled with the phone call I recieved from the move out inspector who had the cheek to tell me the house β€œneeded a good clean” and it would cost Β£170 of our depsit to get a cleaner in!!! However when asked to see pictures of the areas that needed cleaning I received nothing. Days of constantly having to contact them to ask for pictures and to get an update on what was happening and whilst being constantly lied to we finally had the full deposit back. If renting with Richard James I would highly recommend taking your own photos when you move in and when you move out to prevent them trying to steal your money like they did mine!

The agents we dealt with during our house buying search were extremely helpful and very professional. We felt like valued customers and would consider them in the future if we ever needed to sell. Hayley was very helpful and kept us stress free! Thank you to all the staff.

Antony and Hayley were both excellent in their approach to the sale and purchase of this property. Hayley especially, went above and beyond her expected service in chasing up my rather less than useful conveyancer. Very happy with the result, and can't wait to move into my new home!
