About Davis Tate, Woodley
About Woodley
Woodley has been named in the top 20 UK towns to bring up a family by Family Friendly Hotspots Report from Family Investments* due to low crime rates and schools with excellent Key Stage 2 and GCSE results. Historically it was second home to Henry Addington, Speaker of the House of Commons and then Prime Minister. It was not until the 1930’s when it came to prominence due to the establishing of an airfield and flying school. Woodley was home to the production of the Miles Hawk aeroplane until the 1960’s.

Lee Russell provided a consistent, professional service in helping us to sell our property under difficult market conditions. He was always responsive and available to talk, including evenings/weekends, giving us prompt updates when requested. Once we found a buyer, Lee was very much 'on the case' expediting all parties for a timely exchange and completion. He was always courteous and whilst giving advice, he wasn't pushy and left decisions to us.
We highly recommend him.

Lee was very helpful in the buying and selling of our properties. His communication was first class and he was always available to help with any queries (of which we had many!). He was very straight to the point and was extremely transparent in all dealings with all involved in our chain. He was very good at project managing the process and helped us in meeting our deadline. We will 100% be recommending Lee at Davis Tate and would not hesitate to use him again.

straight forward and straight talking. Lee does exactly what he says he is going to do. Gave an accurate price and sold for the asking price. No building up price and the reducing to sell. Just what we wanted. Fast efficient service at a good price rate, thoroughly recommended.

I have dealt with Lee twice in just over a year, to buy and to sell, and on both occasions he has provided a first class personal service. I would not hesitate to recommend his services.

Lee Russell is the personal touch to selling your property - he went above and beyond the 'Estate Agent' ethos and offered an excellent service to sell my house, advising me along the way and supporting me through the daunting processing of selling in the UK - thank you

We cannot recommend this agent highly enough. We were originally (regrettably) persuaded to list with another local agent whose game was to give a high, unrealistic, valuation to 'hook' you into signing with them, leaving the house to sit without hardly any viewings for some weeks before admitting that the original valuation was perhaps too high, with the only option then to slash the price.
With Lee it was a completely different approach right from the start. He was 100% honest and transparent about everything and from the very first days, he'd lined up a number of viewings and called us straightaway afterwards to give us an honest appraisal of how he felt the viewings went. Not only this, but any emails we sent were responded to promptly and professionally-worlds away from the lack of communication we experienced with the other agents. Throughout the entire process from receiving an offer on our property right through to completion we felt up-to-date with any developments. Once we had received an offer, Lee didn't leave it to the solicitors, he was again there every step of the way, keeping us informed of everything.
It was an absolute pleasure to have Lee as our agent and we would thoroughly recommend him without a moment's hesitation. We could not imagine a more professional, communicative and honest agent to work with.

Initially we put our house on the market with a well known estate agent with many branches in the area. Despite too many viewers through the front door, the agents was not able to close any deals and there were one or two differences of opinion regarding their style of selling. After waiting an interminable time for the contract with them to end we were able to instruct Lee to act for us. What a difference. Lee was upfront about our property, knew the current market and what we needed to do and accept if we wanted to sell. His second viewers bought the property. Lee managed the buyer's expectations well so that there were no difficult conversations regarding price or timings. All through the sale Lee kept in contact and helped us through the various hiccups that invariably happen even with the best orchestrated move. During previous property sales we have had to chase everyone ourselves: agents, solicitors, mortgage companies, but this time Lee was ahead of us all the way, keeping an eye on our sale and chasing when necessary. We would recommend Lee to others without hesitation - in fact we have instructed him to act for us again regarding another property.

We were extremely happy with Lee's service as he bent over backwards on several occasions for us. He gave a very personal service and was great with communication, quickly responding to emails at any time of any day. He played a big part in securing our dream home and selling our old house very quickly, and we can not thank him enough for all his hard work.

What a welcome change! Lee was upfront with us from the beginning and we trusted his advice. We enjoyed the interaction with Lee and even though we lost a buyer over New Year never felt particularly
stressed as We knew that Lee would be straight on the case... and he was, finding another buyer within 10 days. The whole process was managed by Lee with plenty of updates, premium listing and the final negotiations were spot on. We would have no hesitation in recommending Davis Tate and Lee Russell.

We sold our home through Davis Tate Woodley and I can't speak highly enough of Lee. From start to finish he was fantastic. Not only did he sell our house within a matter of days, he supported us every step of the way in what was a long process due to the chain. He was never too busy to answer any and all questions (even on his holiday, sorry Lee!) and when the chain was held up he was right there sorting it all out and smoothing the kinks even though they had nothing to do with him. With Davis Tate Woodley you get amazing personal attention and service that you don't find with other Estate Agencies. If you're looking for an estate agent that goes the extra mile this is where you'll find it. We highly recommend!

We sold our flat through Davis Tate and subsequently found ourselves in a chain of 4 properties. Lee took it upon himself to take ownership for the whole chain (despite only being responsible for the sale of our property) and was like a dog with a bone when it came to chasing solicitors to ensure a smooth exchange and completion. As with all of these things, we came across some complications on the way which Lee helped us navigate through and kept us informed every step of the way. I regularly emailed Lee at all sorts of times day and night and became surprised if I didn't receive a response within 60 minutes such was his eagerness to provide excellent customer service.
Importantly, Davis Tate sold our property within a matter of weeks and managed to take care of all viewings during a one week window which we provided (when both my wife and I were out of the country).
All this to say, what could have been a really stressful time was made much more tolerable by the professionalism, diligence and determination of Lee. When we do move house again, I don't think I would even both speaking to any other agents apart from Davis Tate. I've not come across service like this from this industry up until now.
