We have had the pleasure of recently dealing with Davis Tate, Didcot for both a purchase and subsequent rental. All communication has been polite, personable and efficient. Our buy-to-let house purchase was negotiated sensitively by David and any queries were addressed quickly and with integrity. The purchase was completed to deadline and we were kept updated throughout. The whole process took less than 10 weeks from the official offer acceptance to completion. David often went above and beyond to accommodate late hours and nothing was too much trouble. Following our experience regarding the purchase, it made sense to then ask Davis Tate to market our new purchase for rent, not only because they knew the property and area, but we were also more than confident in their abilities. This proved to be a great decision and the speed with which the rental went through was staggering. Matt had a first viewing lined up within three days of the internal photos going on-line and the tenant moved in 7 days later. Given the speed of the transaction, all correspondence and communication was dealt with efficiently and without any drama. David and Matt made both transactions incredibly straightforward and we couldn\'t have asked for a better service. My dealings with Julia added to the personable service and everyone has been excellent to deal with, thank you!

Excellent - as a landlord I am thoroughly impressed by their professionalism. I would recommend them. I have moved up North and despite the distance I am reassured that my house is in good hands.

First class service. Megan listened carefully to our situation and proceeded to set our minds at rest, set up the necessary arrangements without any fuss, and oversaw these to a satisfactory conclusion. Faultless.
