Had a very disappointing experience using Romans as a tenant. At the end of your tenancy you are given the option of getting a professional clean or cleaning the property yourself (note that tenancy agreement states that the property only needs to be returned in the same state of cleanliness that it was in when your tenancy began).
Myself and my partner decided to clean the property ourselves and spent an entire weekend deep cleaning the house in order to save on cleaning fees, leaving the property in a superior condition to when we moved in (when the washing machine was full of mould, other parts dirty, prior tenant's possessions left in cupboards, etc.).
Despite this we were shocked when Romans asked for £400 in cleaning fees for a professional clean (from a cleaning company based in Portsmouth per the invoice hence why I believe this figure was so substantial), which they completely refused to budge on (I would later find out this was because they'd already contracted the cleaners before we'd had a chance to counter their initial offer of £400). We replied in depth, responding to each and every supposed issue with picture evidence from the start/end of the tenancy which was completely ignored, with Romans simply stating that the property hadn't been professionally cleaned and if we wanted to dispute the charge we'd need to go to an arbitrator of their choice at a cost to ourselves of £120 per our contract.
My advice to any tenants is to sort your own professional clean and then the liability is with the cleaners if the property is not up to Romans unrealistic conditions. They will also not ask you for an invoice proving a clean has taken place as we were repeatedly rebuffed when we asked for proof of invoice for a professional clean having taken place prior to the start of our tenancy.

My property was only on the market for just over 2 weeks. However, I only had 3 viewings, all during the first week organised for the same time. We found our potential buyers ourselves via a Facebook group - they were not even aware our house was up for sale.

A wonderful agent! Thank you so much, Sang & Cameron & The Romans Team.
Sang provided professional opinions, guided me through the process, and answered my questions patiently. Huge thanks to Sang!
Cameron insisted on helping me to do some checking proactively. Very polite, energetic, and of course professional. Thanks, Cameron!

We sold our house with Romans earlier this year. We felt they gave us the most realistic idea of the current market and the best option for marketing our house. Matthew Leigh handled our sale and kept us updated throughout. He was helpful when it came to keeping communications open with our buyer, and offering his advice through the process. We were very happy with the service we received - thank you very much!

Romans have been fantastic throughout the sale of our property. Michael Page has been exceptional from start to finish. Was very knowledgeable about the properties in the area and the realistic selling value that would be achieved. He kept us inform at every stage and has answered any questions we have had about anything. He has liaised between our solicitors and the buyers solicitors when things seemed to have stalled and has got everything moving swiftly in the right direction. Couldn't have asked for a better experience from Micheal and the whole team at Romans. I am happy to recommend them to anyone after my experience of selling our property. Thank you Romans!!!

Me and one of my cousins (clears throat) went to view a million pound property on New Lane Hill in Tilehurst. It sits in the heart of RG30 so it made sense to get in there with an offer. I think our bid was 1 million and 20 thousand. The estate agent said you guys need to get a mortgage sorted if you wish to purchase. My cousin politely told him we can organise the money without a mortgage, as for religious reasons as Muslims we don't deal in interest.
The estate agent wasn't understanding our needs at all just talking his own nonsense. I'm a very patient person and stay calm in every situation but I could tell my 'cousin' was starting to get mad. I had to cut the meeting short and we left without being able to purchase. It remains a fact that I don't deal with Romans anymore. I go to Adams or Cintra Estates.

My partner and I rented with Romans for a year and would strongly advise anyone renting in Reading to use an alternative agency. The agent which showed us our flat did not know anything about the property, they created as many barriers as possible to report issues in order to pin it on their tenants, and they are overall just quite unpleasant.
Our property manager,Jessica Phillips, was particularly rude and unhelpful. The first time I called her after moving in, I was greeted by a massive sigh on the other end of the phone, as if I had been bothering her all day when this was the first time I had ever communicated with her. Every phone call, she seemed uninterested, annoyed I would call her to signal an issue, and has only been responsive now that the time has come to argue for the deposit.
The flat had cracks on the wall as well as mold spots which had been half painted over when we moved in, and yet they tried to blame this on us. When we argued this, they stated we were to blame as the cracks had worsened due to the damp (which we notified them about in person and which they deny).
I have rented with many agencies- none have been worse than Romans, and no property manager has been worst than Jessica. The people there do not like or care about their job and it really shows. Save yourself the trouble go anywhere else.

I am not happy with Roman’s since day 1 . Because the person who showed us the property while we were renting promised us many things but didn’t do anyone them . The first property manager Tessa was the only helping property manager we got in last 5 years . Property managers are keep changing almost every few months . We are facing some problems inside our property and Roman’s is aware of it for last two years and none of the problems has been solved yet

I rented a property from Romans about a month ago. So far I have been able to sort out all the difficulties I have had in renting a property with the help of Sang (the letting agent), Kimberley (the property manager) and Kim. In fact, they have always been helpful. They took care of everything (even the simplest process of registering for council tax, choosing an energy supplier, etc.) in a very friendly and helpful manner. Although I have no further experience with other agencies, I would say that these guys have really made a positive impact on my opinion of Romans.

James Fleming was appointed as my move manager at Romans Estate Agents. He was wonderful during the whole process of buying the house. He is very responsive whenever I have any queries and replies in quick time. He handled so many queries related to the sellers and helped in the smooth process. He is kind and consistently goes above and beyond to ensure things remain good. We had a minor hiccup at the last stage of our purchase just before the exchange, but James definitely pushed our case to the sellers to complete quickly. The whole process with the Romans was also very nice, and I would recommend them for any future house tenancy and buying/selling process.

We extended twice our tenancy, and I can confidently say that we feel like it's our own home now.
The staff members are friendly, and although they are professional, we have felt a strong sense of friendship and openness from the team. I want to extend a big thank you to Kimberley Garcia Jones, as she has been very helpful and supportive throughout our stay in the same flat for so many years now.
Although it was our very first time experiencing with a letting agency, I wholeheartedly recommend Romans to help you out.
We are looking forward to continuing with them in the future and possibly even buying our own home. This remains a long-lasting plan for us.

Big shout out to Tim Allen, Sangharsha Gurung and Khim Gurung from the Letting team in Romans.
Best Estate agent in U.K., Sale - Lettings teams in Reading!
Honest review from the property investor : Bought two rental properties from the Romans(Reading) and used their serivce to find tenants and fully manage it. It just took 5 days to fully let both properties to professional tenants from the date of purchase.
I want to give a big shout out to Tim Allen, Sangharsha Gurung and Khim Gurung from the Letting team in Romans. They have good understanding of rental market, proactive(sprung into action, properties were advertised in Zoopla, RightMove, etc on day 1 and arranged viewing from the second day), gave right advise to me to carry out light rennovation.
Apart form their excellent service and customer support, they understood the vision of property investor, they gave a good rate to fully manage both properties.
Our company's future investments will now be invested in "Reading" with the help of Romans.

Throughout the onboarding process Richard Chambers, assigned asset manager, proved to be an invaluable resource, providing unwavering support and promt guidance that significantly contributed to a seamless onboarding experience.

This is my second year with Romans and I must say they have tenant friendly approach.
Kimberly our property manager is really helpful and she is approachable, always available. She really acted as a very proactive mediator between us and Landlord. Many times she helped us communicate our point of view to the landlord and avoided possible confusion about the issues in the house.
Thank you Kimberly for your constant support ????

I am writing to extend my deepest thanks to Michael Page and the rest of the Romans team for their exceptional assistance in selling my house. This was my first experience with selling property, and I could not have asked for a better outcome. The property was exchanged and completed within five months of my initial contact with Michael. I was assigned a dedicated viewing manager who kept me informed about all viewings and responses. Additionally, I was assigned a dedicated move manager who assisted me with all solicitor-related queries from the buyers' side. This manager made sure there were no delays from either side. Michael's guidance in listing the property at the right price and helping me navigate my circumstances and market conditions was invaluable. In short, I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of service I received from Romans. I would not hesitate to recommend Romans to all my friends. Once again, thank you to Michael and the entire Romans team for their hard work and dedication.

I have purchased a property in Reading four years ago and hired the services of Romans Reading to manage the property for four years and recently to sell it. I should state that Romans team were very professional and always paid attention to details and they did their best to protect my interest. I would like to thank James Fleming in particular for his cooperation and patience during the process of completion of sales all the way through. Excellent by all means . I will definitely hire their services to manage the forthcoming property .

I have just completed the sale of my property with Matthew Leigh and James Flemming (move manager). The whole team were diligent and communicative during the whole process and achieved a price I was very satisfied with. Matthew was very patient and understanding in his demeanour which is refreshing to see from an estate agent.
More importantly, a special thanks goes to James who, from a customer experience lens, was nothing short of exemplary during a shockingly convoluted and problematic deed of variation process.
Thankyou again folks.

From start to finish, it was a remarkable experience, and I am genuinely impressed by the exceptional service I received. San and Lucky demonstrated a remarkable level of professionalism and expertise throughout the entire process. From the initial consultation to the final lease signing, they consistently went above and beyond to ensure that my needs and preferences were met. Communication was also a strong point. They were incredibly responsive, promptly returning calls and emails, providing updates and answering all of my questions with patience and clarity. This made the entire process smooth and stress-free.

Been treated very rudely over phone as we were on holiday for 10 days after a viewing and putting our offer .. we kept explaining our situation that we are on holidays and will be back but this person named Adam Colvim kept calling and pestering inspite of us explaining him so many times and finally asked us to never call again ???? Is this the kind of customer service you offer, do you not understand someone’s personal space .. we would take this bigger as we have call recording on the phone and make a formal complaint .. sad to see such behaviour

Initially very enthusiastic but as soon as the deal is done a new person pops in with absolutely nothing to do but to daily send a bunch of advertising emails, to make almost a dozen of accounts on hubs and portals, so many marketing hoaxes from partner companies luring you in membership schemes and you start wondering why you even choose it at the first place.
No options but to go with a no-deposit scheme as it gives them leverage and better protection from a legal point of view.

I am a landlord who is not living in UK currently. Therefore I need a professional and reliable letting agent for my property. I trust service of Romans especially with the help of my property manager Kian Lewington.
Kian is very professional, proactive, and always fast response with positive result. Just one example happened recently. I have not received the rent payment for a few months due to the tenant seems accidentally paid to the account with wrong reference number. Upon getting to know this issue, Kian immediately take some actions looking into it. With Kian's effort, this issue has been successfully resloved within just 2 days.
Taking the advantage of writing this review, I would express my deepest appreciation to Kian Lewington. Thank you for your help. You are a talent and proud of Romans.

I have been a long-term tenant renting from Romans for the past 20years. In all my years dealing with Romans, I have seen and dealt with numerous staff of Romans - some good some bad.
I wish to particularly mention Kimberly Garcia, she has been helpful, understanding and totally professional with a human touch. Any body dealing with her, I am sure that they will find the same. if only all estate agents staff would be like her. Romans would do well to reward for her professionalism and helpfulness.

Pros:
1. Overall good communication
2. Generally nice staff
3. Decent maintenance team who responds quickly
Cons:
1. Threatened that I'd lose the flat if I opted out of no deposit option
2. Their no deposit option (The Residency) is essentially a scam - expensive with no real benefit (even a payday loan would've been cheaper), and takes away your legal protection from the government's deposit protection schemes
3. For disputes, they charge £120 for their third party adjudicator - which would've been illegal under any deposit protection scheme, but they get away with it due to point 2 above
4. The "third party adjudicator" is actually a private company that acts in the interest of the letting agent (just look at reviews for "Property Redress" - formerly HF Resolution Ltd)
5. They charge incredibly inflated rates - I was charged £300 for a light clean of a 1 bed flat, they refused to negotiate and there's no means to dispute it fairly as mentioned above
I've dealt with a number of letting agencies, both as landlord and as tenant, and Romans are truly one of the worst I've come across. The sort of agency that consistently operates in the grey area of the Trading Standards. Avoid if you can.

DO NOT USE ROMANS !!
WORST ESTATE AGENT IVE EVER USED IN MY LIFE MY FAR
Tried to scam us out of the vast majority of our damage deposit. Moved out in Sept and only got an outcome January 23 after the case went to an independent body to resolve. They agreed with us. Romans basically tried to long it out with us and hope we’d give in and accept there ridiculous reductions.
They wouldn’t budge and inch when we tried to negotiate. So unethical slow-rolling us with the current cost of living. We needed that money.
Throughout the 3 years we were tenants any and all dealings with romans were highly unsatisfactory. Just a really poor estate agents I would highly advise everyone to avoid.

Worst agency.
We arrived at our new house ready to move in the day before yesterday to find the whole property had flooded and the ceiling had collapsed.
Since then Romans staff, especially the property managers Josh and Katherine Atkins have made themselves completely unreachable. We are in a situation where we will be homeless in a few days and have had no support or assistance from Romans in securing alternative accommodation. After they initially accused us of causing the leak ourselves, they finally discovered that a mains pipe had burst and that the landlords insurance would pay for alternative accommodation, that was yesterday afternoon. Since then we have left multiple voicemails and emails with no response. Absolutely disgusting behaviour. We have paid 6 months rent upfront and can't even get an acknowledgement of our attempts to contact them.

I have been trying to contact since beginning of last week to arrange a viewing. I did contact the number in Zoopla and I have sent a request through Zoopla on 05/09/2022. Since then I have been chasing up with Yasmin every single day to arrange a viewing. I was told by Yasmin an offer has been accepted on 12/09/2022. Which is very upsetting, if the property has been sold off line then not sure the reason why it was advertised to disappoint and waste our time. Very disappointing and unprofessional estate agent.

The sales team at Romans Reading did an excellent job for us in supporting the sale of our house. Mike and the team gave us great advice and generated lots of interest in our property. When unforeseen complications cropped up, they were able to resolve the issues, getting us through to completion in the time frame we needed. Very grateful for their support and professionalism.

Great support from the whole team, especially Kimberly always response fast to my inquires. I don't live in the uk, and I couldn't have managed my Buy-to-Let property without them,

It's been 2 days since I have tried to get in touch with them but nobody answer to the phone. Plus I left them a message to the voice mail but nobody called me back. It seems like the agency is dead. I cannot understand what is going on with them but I think this is not normal. Awful customer service experience.
Edit: Sorry but your automatic and generic reply doesn't help with the customer experience provided. It would be very much appreciated an attempt to get in contact with me.

Recently I moved in to a new rented apartment and found couples of issues with the electricity switch as well as some appliances. Thanks for Jessica Phillips of Roman. She took immediate action and helped me to contact both landlord and contractor and fix the issue for me right away! Jessica has done a really great job and her level of expertise is impressive!

I made an offer on Thursday, they asked me to fill a form and send it back to me so they can speak with the landlord, I sent them on Thursday, forwarded on Friday followed by Monday ! A lady named Louisa left me a message on Monday said we haven’t received any emails from you so the flat is gone !

Avoid at all costs!! My wife and I cleared our Saturday morning just to find out that Aaron Mackay wouldn't show up to his appointment. I rang the office at least 5 times and no one. I dropped Aaron an email too but again nowhere to be found. You could at least show the courtesy of calling if you are going to waste others' time!

This review is specially about my Property Manager, Kimberley Garcia Jones. Ever since I rented this property, I just feel at home and have everything going well for me, all due to her excellent management skills. Her friendly approach and response to my requests for any service and concerns is just awesome. In fact my prolonged tenancy in this property is all due to her. Kim is a true professional and Romans must be proud to have her in their team.

The agent managing the property went over and beyond to address and resolve issues in the flat. Always friendly and prepared to listen

Over 12 weeks without a single offer tendered; moved to a new agent and sold (stc) within two weeks at near enough the expected amount.
