Kelly Saunders oversaw the change of tenancy at the above named property while we were on holiday. All the
procedures were carried out thoroughly and efficiently thanks to Kelly.
She is always very helpful and accessible, she is a credit to Romans.

So disappointing. Massively over valued our property to attract us, signed us up for an excessively long contract without being clear, we were unable to get out of it. Showed people round our house who wanted a project (it's a new build in immaculate condition). ...

Avoid this agent at all costs they are aggressive and rude. Demanding deposits with threatening e mails but never answering questions you have over the property. Inappropriately addressing you in written communications. When you raise a complaint they defend themselves rather than deal with the ...

Our experience of Romans was fantastic. Initially I found that Romans (Michael Page) were the only estate agents to accurately value our property, and their rates were very reasonable. They arranged an open house which ran smoothly. When our first buyers unfortunately pulled out Romans ...
