Very pleased with the service provided by Romans. Mark also was very helpful. Lots of viewing and feedback. We felt confident that they would sell our property very quickly and they did. Professional service at all times. Many thanks to all of the Camberley Team!

What agent could do to change your mind?
Be more approachable to tenants who require landlord contact details if the landlord cant be contacted on the details supplied to the tenant by the agent. Also ludicrous fees.
