We are overseas landlords and have the peace of mind our property is well looked after by Davis Tate. They diligently and transparently manage repairs. No hidden costs or bad surprise about the billing, they always ask for our approval before calling a contractor (except in case of emergency of course!). They are proactive to let us know us about new legislations and small improvements that can help to keep the flat in an attractive and safe condition. When our property is back on the market, ...

In 2014, I had benchmarked Reading 5 biggest estate agents to compare their services and fees. Davis Tate is neither the cheapest nor the most expensive

We went through 6 other estate agents trying to find a house to rent over the course of 2 months but were left unhappy with service with all of them. However, when we turned to Davis Tate they provided us with 5* service. Sam, in particular, throughout the whole process was extremely helpful. As this is our first time renting he gave us the confidence and advice we needed and has made everything as painless as possible. Would definitely recommend them to anyone including first-time renters....

Charlie and his Team namely Kevin Gadd are consistent and patient in their approach. They employ a systematic approach right from putting the property onto the market to completion day. Without a doubt I would recommend this Agent as being the best in Reading. Well done and thank you for your hard work on what became a complex transaction in the end....

A very big thank you to Charlie Hill, Sam Huish and Kevin Gadd!! We purchased a property in Reading through Davis Tate and received 5 star service from the team. From viewing to completion of our house purchase process, we were kept well informed and received regular updates. Charlie and his team dealt with our purchase efficiently, with great patience, knowledge and professionalism!! This was evident whenever any queries arose as the process of purchasing a property can be rather stressful ...

I was impressed with the thoroughness of Charlie's original valuation visit,and his flexibility, in discussing agent fees. This was the main reason we chose Davis Tate to be our agents over some other local Caversham firms. Charlie was also very attentive once a buyer was identified to ensure completion was as smoot as it possibly could be....

Comment on agent fees
Was more expensive than other local firms we got quotes for, but at the same time it felt Davis Tate were prepared to go th extra mile and it was clear what they were prepared to do for the fee (which was less clear in other quotes). Davis Tate were also flexible in reducing the fee from the original quote.

We chose Davis Tate after 4 other local agents visits due to our meeting with Charlie. From there Charlie and the whole team supported us and gave regular updates whether after viewings or during the lead up to exchange. The whole team visited the house so as to know it well and James seemed to be the main person most regularly involved in the viewings and did an excellent job. The exchange was a tricky experience and Charlie was in constant contact during the twists and turns of the journey. H...

The fees were average compared to other local agents given the package they offered However given the input from the team and Charlie I would say the agent's fees were extremely good value.

We have recently let our house through Davis Tate. We received an excellent service. We were trying to let the property with another Caversham based agent who failed to market and let the property in over 2 months. We met Megan on the Wednesday and by the following Monday we had 2 prospective tenants to choose from. Megan is very knowledgeable about the rental market. She is professional and gives guidance in a helpful, straightforward, honest manner. Sam dealt with taking our chosen prospecti...

Megan is very professional and a good communicator. From our initial meeting I felt very positive about the whole process of letting the flat through Davis Tate. It took less than a week from that first conversation with Megan to 'Let Agreed' at the first viewing. I'm a very happy customer and wont hesitate to use Davis Tate for future lettings....

Davis Tate have managed 2 rental properties for us for several years now and we have always received an excellent and professional service. We always had great peace of mind knowing they were looking after our properties whilst we were overseas. Having recently chosen to sell one of the properties, Davis Tate managed the entire process for us very efficiently and led to a very quick and hassle free sale where we felt fully informed at every stage of the process....

We felt the fees for our sale were fair in relation to the sale price and based on the volume of business we had given them over a period of 10 years.

I have been living in the property managed by Davis Tate since last 2 years now. It is extremely comforting that someone like Bethany is managing the property. She is very responsive, and empathic towards the issues faced. She follows up till the issue is resolved completely. Here's wishing her all the best in times to come. Cheers!!...

Ok having decided to move I came back to Charlie as I had the confidence in him and his team as before. Knowing that to move these days are extremely stressful but not with Davis Tate, they assure you 100% with the upmost professionalism, confidence with the sale, where we are and what is going to happen next. Davis Tate take away a lot of the stress as you would expect them to do, but again in the past experience we know this isn't always the case with other estate agents. I have to say an...

Having had 3 others agents in Reading before Davis Tate I cannot rate them highly enough for the professional manner they marketed my property and quickly found new buyers when the sale fell through. James couldn't have been more helpful, diligent and caring, making the whole experience using Davis Tate a positive and memorable experience that I would recommend to anyone selling their property in areas Davis Tate cover. Their philosophy to this personal service is highly commended...
