Avoid avoid avoid

From start to finish with Romans it has been horrendous. We wanted to move in on the date they had advertised on their website due to both starting new jobs however we got a call to say that is needed to be delayed by 5 days due to electricity and gas inspection and cleaning the property. This was incredibly annoying but not as much as when we were finally handed the keys to move in the flat was filthy and had not been cleaned at all. I went through the complaints procedure and managed to get compensation money and a written email that we were able to leave the flat in the same condition how we found it. Now our tenancy is over and Romans have still not given us our deposit back. They tried to charge £250 in professional cleaning costs even after I uploaded evidence. Romans hugely lack communication within their company and I honestly cannot say a positive thing about our experience with them. I honestly advice anyone to avoid them.

We sold our first property with Romans…

We sold our first property with Romans Bracknell last year in October. In a time when selling was very difficult, our agents did not falter and kept our confidence up through months of uncertainty. We never struggled to make contact with our agent and we were consistently kept up-to-date with the situation.They even dealt with a psycho who played around with making an offer and pulling out at the last minute because of the stamp duty increase with tact and professionalism. We then went on to secure an even higher offer the next time!

AVOID AT ALL COST

AVOID AT ALL COST. If you can avoid using Romans Sunningdale as your lettings agent and property manager, please do. Despite paying them over GBP 700 per month, we have had to do most of the work ourselves and in order to get Romans to do anything at all we have needed to chase violently a number of times. Any proactivity on their side is completely absent and their complacency has put our property at risk several times - e g not tending to leaking pipes with urgency or leaving keys / fobs at the property during viewings. We asked Romans for a partial refund of the management fees due to the extremely poor service. We were promised three months' compensation which they then wiggled out of on the basis a technicality. We are deeply embarrassed on their behalf and will never use Romans Sunningdale again. AVOID AT ALL COST AS YOU'LL GET NOTHING BUT EXCUSES.

First time buyers

My partner and myself are first time buyers so the whole process was really daunting but Mia made us feel so at ease and really helped with everything. Our move manager Hannah was great and always gave us updates when we weren’t always finding out the answers we wanted to !

I phoned the Swindon site because my toilet wasn't working. Excellent customer service at the start because it was an urgent issue. Told me to log it on the website under maintenance which I did. I had someone out just over an hour later to fix the issue and its all sorted. Amazing service and thank you so much to the swindon site for sorting it out so quick. Definatly 5 out of 5. I would recommend this letting agency to anyone. Andy Libby

House sale Done and Dusted. I dealt with Matthew from the start , then Natalie through to the end of this easy quick process. Romans have sold houses for me in the past so I had no worries about using them again. Professional from the start they had to cope with a few problems along the way but they came up trumps,, as I knew they would. House was sold to 1st people to view it, but only after taking on board advice given from Matthew. Happy , helpful cheerful easy to deal with company, available on Sundays too unlike some estate agents, I will always use Romans. A big big thank you to all involved in the process.

A Very Grateful Tenant

Like many, I've had a very tough year and to make things worse I have had a lot of problems with the flat that I am renting. However, I have been very lucky to have a wonderful property manager in Lisa Fazal who has been exceptional. She has been superb in correspondence with myself and my landlord - polite, friendly, fast-acting and understanding. Romans have been excellent throughout my tenancy and I have always felt at ease asking them for help, guidance and support.

Romans - Camberley... Excellent!

Matthew Pointing and his team provided a first class service. The marketing of my property combined with Romans ability to engage with serious buyers led to a swift completion. Romans property portal is excellent. Highly recommend.

5 star estate agent

Tom and Max were brilliant from start to finish, nothing was too much trouble and when the sellers solicitors were not being pro-active Tom and Max did all the chasing up for me!

Professionalism 0/10 Sarah Hood who has been dealing with bringing my tenancy to an end early, forgot to remove me from an email chain quite literally MOCKING me to her colleague, when all I asked was why I had to get the property professionally cleaned upon exit, considering when I moved in during the height of the pandemic; the property was so dirty I couldn't stay for the first day of my tenancy. By dirty I mean - food in the dishwasher, toothpaste SPIT in the sink, in a property MANAGED by this agent?! Appalling service - avoid as a Landlord and a tenant.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Terrible service. Our boiler broke leading to an astronomical electric bill. It took over a month for them to send out a plumber to repair the fault in the middle of winter. Romans take zero accountability and the level of customer service is shocking. It takes weeks for anyone to get back to you. Stay well away from these guys. Shocked at how poor the service is since they are such a big company. Will not be using Romans again and will recommend to my friends all do the same. Terrible.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

No Deposit Option..???

It seems unless you take the NDO you're unlikely to get a successful application. Can someone explain why a timely application after speaking to an agent, a extremely good credit history, full-time employment and a very good salary was not suitable to rent the property?After over a week of waiting and no communication, the application was rejected and the property remained available/advertised. As there is still no explanation for this, one can only presume that this is because if you don't take up the expensive NDO option and want to pay the deposit in full.....you're application will be rejected.

Excellent service

Having rented my apartment through Romans for several years, I have been very happy with their professional service and wrote a review which reflects that. Since then, I put the apartment on the market and am just about to complete on the sale. I recently realised that I had not downloaded my Statement Summary for the previous 2 tax years and so I requested copies from Donna-Marie Brant, my former rental agent. She replied immediately and not only sent me the information I required, but added in details for the current year. Excellent service as I have come to expect from Romans.

Teamwork

During the course of a quite involved sale, the team at Romans - Fleet managed to steer us safely through a series of complications and setbacks, resulting in the desired happy ending. In what would otherwise have been a stressful process, Eleanor (with her kind encouragement and sympathetic attention) Dan and Joe - along with Natalie, in sales progression - kept us in the loop at all times, working hard to negotiate with all parties in order to resolve all obstacles as they arose.E for effort and A-plus grades..
