Pooja has been brilliant!

Pooja is leaving us as one of our property managers, and will be missed.

I have been a customer of Romans for 11 years, over this time I have had many different property managers from my properties. I’ve never felt the need to write a review but she has been so good with us, super helpful and we really appreciate that.

Excellent service applauded

Kimberley Garcia at your Reading branch has given me excellent service. If I could award 12 out of 10, I would!
When she took over her portfolio from her predecessor it was a hard act to follow but she has upped the standard.

Kimberley is our Property Manager for some years now. We truly value her knowledge and advice on our two properties. She is always professional and yet friendly. We depend on her a lot and dread to think of her ever leaving Romans. So good to have her as the go to person and she is easily accessible via email or telephone.

Not Fit to Let

I've been letting a flat at Romans Reading and paying £900 per month. However within 1 week I found several problems with the flat some more serious than others. I reported all the issues with pictures as evidence. I never had any communication within 1 month and found that the head of property maintenence services had left and so was told to resubmit. This very much annoyed me as a further month later im still no further forward.
I constantly keep getting told that the landlord can not be tracked down. This is unacceptable and the service is not fit for purpose with incompetent staff who refuse to ring back or make it as difficult as possible to contact them. I still seem to be going round in circles with no evidence of how they are progressing and dates as to when my jobs will get done. One of my jobs is my mattress is heavily stained forcing me to sleep on the sofa. This is utter disgraceful and for Romans to treat its customers like this... you should hold your heads in shame.
I'm seriously looking at leaving after just 3 months and not paying another penny for rent.
