Have just moved into a rented property through David James with thanks to Grace. She made this a smooth and easy exchange. Keeping my partner and I fully up to date with what's happening, all within about four weeks. Super happy. Thank you to Grace and the team.

This is my first time leaving a review for any estate agent, but, is just because i have not had very much to say about the others. Anything worth a praise anyways. Claire showed me around one of the properties i have viewed in my quest to buying a house. She is been absolutely fantastic with the viewing. She was very professional, well informed, and answered any question i had in great detail. Also, she did not make me feel rushed as I have had on some other viewings, she's been patient and taken the time to make me feel satisfied in my queries. Rarely, in my experience viewing houses, I have had an estate agent knowledgeable in the property's details to a tea and patient.

After struggling to find a property to rent for 6 months, I decided to pop into David James estate agents. I spoke to Grace and from that moment she assured me that she will do her best to find me something suitable. One week later I get a call with a property meeting my needs. From that point, Grace then kept me fully informed of every stage until I received the keys. The whole process getting my house was as easy as clockwork thanks to Grace and I'm sure that all other staff at David James would be as efficient from the quality of service that I received. 5 stars for sure.

Nigel was a pleasure to deal with during my inspection, he's well mannered and even took the time to explain exactly what he's doing which put me at ease. He respectfully adhered to covid measures by wearing a mask, gloves and shoe protectors as he carried out his work. Even before he took photos of my home office he asked to make sure I didn't have any sensitive work information up on my screen, nice little touch!

Have recently purchased my first home with David James and I have been really impressed with the professionalism and diligence provided throughout. Vicky has been my main point of contact and I have been really impressed with the timely communication and customer service provided. An excellent experience as a buyer and I would definitely consider using them as a seller in the future too. Would highly recommend.

Excellent all round. I first interacted with David James when I bought my house in 2019. I was impressed with how they dealt with me as a buyer and went on to work with them when I decided to let my property. I worked them again this year when I sold my house. I found them very easy to work with, responsive and really helpful with their advice throughout the process. Many thanks to Vicky and James in particular for their great communication, responsiveness and excellent service.
