Davis Tate Estate Agents - Woodley

I definitely condone the other 5* reviews for Davis Tate Woodley (Dir: Lee Russell). Lee took on the sale of our home for us. We got 3 valuations & quotes from Agents and from the outset he was the best informed and most professional of the agents we met. I liked the fact that he personally handled the whole sale process from start to completion and the point of contact was always Lee, not someone in a larger team who "isn't in the office at the moment". Lee was always on hand and always sorted out any queries asap. I had previously used 2 other Reading based agents to sell my mum's house a couple of years ago, and the attention to detail that Lee applied to the task of selling our home easily outstripped our pervious experience with Estate Agents. Yes there are fees, and when the final bill comes in the fees can look significant, but the sale of our house could have ended up in confusion if Lee hadn't been on top of the whole chain. Having a professional agent chasing solicitors, smoothing out details, talking to our buyers, and their buyers, made a big difference that justified the fee. So Purple Bricks and other budget services will save you money, but if you want your sale to go ahead on time, which we did, and like the idea of dealing with one experienced agent who can troubleshoot any issues for you then I'd suggest contact Lee for an estimate and quote. Sorry if this review sounds a bit 'fake', I can assure that it isn't, we are just very pleased with how smoothly the whole process went from May 2019 (first listing) to August 2019 (completion) and I think Lee was essential to that.

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 Russell has provided an excellent service from beginning to end. The extra options he provides as standard helped us sell our house for the asking price by generating viewers as soon as it went on the market. We sold in one day. Thank you Lee - can’t understand why anyone would go with another Woodley agent knowing how hard you work to make the process so straight forward for your clients.

We would highly recommend Lee, realistic and honest from the start meant our house sold fairly quickly around the mark it was up for. Lee went out of his way trying to help find forms/solve queries etc that we needed, which meant it all went more smoothly than it could have done. We don’t plan to move again for a long time, but if we did I wouldn’t hesitate to use Lee again.

Lee has provided an excellent personal service and I'm sure without his dilligence in chasing through the chain there would not have been the successful conclusion there was.

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.

Very efficient and committed estate agent. Fast and honest communication from start to finish. Listens to client's individual concerns and situation. Gives estate agent a good name! Would definitely recommend!

Lee at Davis Tate Woodley is fantastic and We would highly recommend to anyone wanting to see their house. Not only is he a genuinely nice chap, he is sincere in all his dealings and really listens and gives sound advice. We have sold two houses with Lee and will returning to use again in the future.

We were extremely happy with Lee Russell'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.

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.
