Steve E.
We have worked with Walmsley Estate Agents for nearly 20 years, initially as letting agents for our property and most recently to handle the sale. Throughout two decades, their service has been exceptional, built on a foundation of open, clear, and honest communication. Where Walmsley truly shines is when things don’t go exactly to plan, this we have seen from both the lettings and sales teams. Their active management, perseverance, and problem-solving skills during the sales process were outstanding. I genuinely believe that without their dedication and proactive approach, we wouldn't have reached completion when we did. They are thoroughly professional, completely trustworthy, and I cannot recommend them highly enough.
Matthew S.
Walmsley estate agents recently assisted me with the sale of a property. The team were very friendly, helpful and kept on top of communication between all stakeholders. They were committed to pushing the sale forward, especially when we had numerous delays and issues with the buyer’s solicitors. Overall the team provided an excellent service and I would certainly use Walmsley estate agents again.
Robert R.
I rented a room managed by Walmsley for 4 years, and I’ve had a really positive experience with them. As a tenant, it can be hard to find an agency that genuinely looks after you, but Walmsley has been great. Whenever there was a maintenance issue, they dealt with it quickly and professionally. Communication was always clear, and the move-out process at the end of my 4 years was straightforward and fair. Highly recommend them if you're looking to rent in the Caversham/Reading area!
Renata L.
Excellent communication, and take the time up give information and follow up, efficient and friendly viewing and good suggestions
Winnie Lyn P.
Walmsley Estate were very efficient and helpful in getting us our ideal new home. A great team I would highly recommend them as a first choice.
Mary C.
Consistent excellent service from each and every one of the staff. Welcoming, proactive and always helpful.
Francesca N.
We cannot recommend Walmsley Estate Agents highly enough. They have genuinely been the best estate agents we have ever dealt with, and we have rented many properties over the years. From the very beginning, the whole team has been professional, friendly and incredibly helpful. Any maintenance issues were always dealt with quickly and efficiently, which made such a difference and gave us real peace of mind. Communication was consistently excellent, and they were always approachable and pleasant to deal with. A special thank you to Leona, Beth and Emily, who have all been fantastic throughout. Their kindness, responsiveness and professionalism really stood out and made our experience so positive. It is rare to find an estate agent that is this reliable and genuinely caring. We would happily recommend Walmsley Estate Agents to anyone looking to rent or let a property.
Yoana S.
We had a great experience with Walmsley. From the very first enquiry, Katie was responsive, helpful, and genuinely friendly and made the whole process of moving into our rented property smooth and easy. If you're looking for a letting agency that's professional, communicative, and actually a pleasure to deal with, look no further.
Anna C.
Very happy with the service provided by Walmsley when purchasing my first property - Oliver and Paula went above and beyond to help facilitate the process. Would recommend!
Amanda T.
I was selling a retirement lease hold property on behalf of a family member. Walmsley are very knowledgeable about these types of properties having sold them before and guided me with in-depth knowledge and professional practical advice. Kept me up to date with viewings, with regular feedback. Although the whole process was arduously longer than it needed to be, (the buyers slow Solicitor). Paula was amazing at keeping me informed, either calling me or emailing. She was patient and kind, with added humour which helped keep my spirts up when I was feeling at my most defeated. She is a super star! I would highly recommend Walmsley in Caversham to anyone thinking of selling or buying. The whole team are all nice and polite and responsive.
Lewis H.
The team at Walmsley did a fantastic job in selling my flat in what has been a challenging market. The team were always on hand for any questions I had. A big thank you again to the Walmsley team!
Ni
We bought and sold our house through Walmsley and had a great experience both times. During the recent sale of our property Craig, Paula and team were very professional, friendly and accommodating.
Rajesh K.
Paula was really helpful throughout the process. She gives proactive updates and addressed all our queries. To add we recently sold our house through them. Craig, Paula, Oliver and every one else made the whole process less stressful. Thanks a lot for your cooperation
Barbara H.
Walmsley were professional from start to finish with our sale. We took a while to find the right purchase as we were moving counties but we had regular contact with Paula & the team and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely recommend to penitential clients.
Shaily C.
We had a fantastic experience with Walmsley for purchasing the property. Oliver is highly professional from start to finish and truly took time to understand the kind of house we were looking for. He didn’t just recommend generic options—rather booked us to view the house we really liked in our first visit. His advice throughout the process was excellent, and the entire team is clearly very organised, structured, and committed to offering great support. Oliver supported our case extremely well and made the whole journey much smoother. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and proactive estate agent.
Amy W.
I've not been in our new property long, but so far I cannot fault Walmsley. Katie and Beth have been amazing. Quick replies, very informative, kind and welcoming! Thank you girls for making this so much easier! x
emmaculate M.
I started feeling welcomed from the beginning meeting Walmsley Estate team well done guys continue doing great job
Alphoncina B.
I had a great experience with Walmsley. Very impressed by the team responsiveness and proactiveness throughout the entire process. Even though the apartment I was initially interested in wasn't available for my preferred dates, they immediately offered me several other great options. I had an excellent viewing with Katie, who was professional and helpful. The whole process move was very quick. Katie and Bethany kept me updated regularly via email, and the overall communication with the entire team was excellent. I truly recommend them.
Emine Z.
I have view a flat with Tom that he did a great job I believe. He was so patient and very professional. I believe competent as well, his attitude towards the work, the way he explained details about the property was very satisfactory. Very professional and kind. We are fully satisfied with the service he provided. Thank you very much for the care and patience.
Ogunnubi M.
Walmsley Estate & Lettings Agency is who they claim to be. Their commitment to ensure you settle in well is so lovely. On the move-in date, I didn't have to worry about the agent's whereabouts because she was right on time. (Trust me I have rented an apartment, where I had to wait for the agent for more than 1 hour). I am still amazed at their level of documentation (even the door wedges were documented 😁😁). Their level of communication when we moved in was top-notch. Whenever there is an issue, they are ready to step in and resolve the issue as soon as possible. To Emily & her team - Leona, Beth, Sam, Katie (Wondering how I remember all their names - who forgets the names of people who have been lovely to you 😊) we want to say THANK YOU. You guys are top-notch professionals and you should be proud of yourselves. One of the issues people have when moving out of a property is the deposit return. With Walmsley Estate & Lettings Agency, there was none of such. Our refund was smooth. I recommend Walmsley Estate & Lettings Agency to anyone and everyone who wants to rent, buy or have their property managed. They are tested, trusted and reliable. It's a five-star 🌟 for me.
Bamidele O.
The best team ever. Excellent service in terms of team work, communication, attentiveness and response to needs. Highly recommended guys. Kudos Walmsley Team.
Dan M.
Very friendly, warm, responsive and accommodating. I've had nothing but pleasant interactions with the various members of staff. They were well-informed about the rental, and were able to get everything lined up in time for us to be able to get the keys and start the moving in before our previous tenancy ran out, despite the rather tight time window. Thank you all very much!
Tabea-Maria H.
Walmsley has provided fantastic service and a smooth experience from initial viewings to moving in. Bethany, Emily, Katie and Samantha have been very responsive, helpful, knowledgeable and kind. We are very pleased with their support and recommend them highly.
Anita N.
The team at Walmsley have been great throughout, very responsive and helpful. Thank you to Sam, Katie and Bethany for all your help!
Tom H.
Could not recommend Walmsley more highly. Throughout the whole process, everyone was fantastic. From original viewing to picking up the keys, it was all made easy and very pleasant. Very impressed!
Constance N.
I highly recommend Walmsley Estate & Letting. From commencement to check in, was professionally handled. Kudos to Bethany, Katie and Sam!
Lauren S.
I have been a tenant with Walmsley for nearly 3 years and I have always been impressed with the level of service and their attention to care and consideration. With the help of Beth, Katie and Sam with my move in and the help of the maintenance team (Cara, Leona and Emily) helping me with my questions or queries, I would recommend them to anyone who wants a smooth and easy tenancy. Keep up the good work team Walmsley👍
George B.
I’ve been really impressed with the proactive, helpful team at Walmsley during my move. They made the whole process smooth and stress-free. A special thanks to Katie, Bethany, and Emily for their help so far.
halil S.
I have been renting with Walmsley Estate & Letting Agents for a long time, and I am very happy with their service. The team is always friendly, professional, and quick to help. Whenever I had a problem in the house, they solved it fast and with great communication. Emily and the team have been especially supportive, and I really appreciate their positive attitude. I feel safe and comfortable as a tenant because they take care of everything properly. I highly recommend this agency to anyone looking for a reliable and helpful letting service. Five stars from me! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Robert R.
Cannot fault the Warmsley team in letting the property, and ensuring the tenants meet their responsibilities. Would recommend using Warmsley as a landlord.
Irina K.
An excellent and professional agency. Everything was organised and understandable. The entire process is transparent at every step, and the agents respond promptly to all questions, always providing clear guidance on the best course of action. When needed, they were happy to make adjustments to the tenancy agreement. During the move-in, Katie helped us check that everything in the property was in order. We spent over three hours on the inventory, and throughout the whole time, we had full support from both Katie and Bethany. Thank you very much for such a smooth experience!
Annabel V.
We had a fantastic experience using Walmsley to rent a place in Reading! Sam, Beth, and the whole of the team were very helpful and accommodating.
Jem F.
The Walmsley team both lettings and sales are all very friendly and helpful and a pleasure to work with.
E W.
Good rental agency. Very helpful, friendly and professional. Always willing to help. They usually respond quickly to any inquiry.
Susie C.
Warmsley’s representative Tom was excellent; informative, understanding and effective. Great service in my book. Thank you.
Met
I have been living in a flat arranged through this agent and was impressed with their support. Despite some visa-related issues that made me unsure if everything would be ready before signing, the team did their best until the last moment, and thanks to them, I was able to move in on the planned date.
Kalila C.
Honestly the smoothest move-in I've ever had. The Caversham team have been wonderful. Not only has the team been incredibly responsive, but they've helped throughout every step, with patience and understanding. I've dealt with a few people since my move in, from general questions to permissions to make changes (like a CityFibre install), but I have to give a particular shout-out to Sam, Emily, Bethany, Cara, and Katie. All of which have helped through out various stages from viewings and questions to move in and logistics. And all of which have been nothing but wonderful to talk to. Thank you team, the happiest and easiest move I've done to date.
Tom H.
The team at walmsley were really helpful through a challenging house sale. They were patient, professional and friendly. Strongly recommend!
Peter
As first time buyers, we have seen a fair few houses and dealt with numerous Estate Agents. I have to say that Tom and Louisa from Walmsley EA have been the best people we’ve encountered so far. Extremely knowledgeable, both of them know exactly what we are looking for, are honest in their approach, very communicative and have gone out of their way to assist us. As we continue to look for the perfect first house, I feel we are in the best hands. Highly recommended
paul S.
Can only say good things about all the staff at Walmsley. I was made to feel that no question was a stupid one. I asked to visit the property a few times after my offer had been accepted, and usually the staff are very busy, but I was always accommodated with my requests. I was always kept up to date with how things were progressing, not once did I have to chase to find things out. So from me, heartfelt thanks go to Emmaura, Louisa, Paula and Oliver who have helped make this sale a stress free one. Would definitely recommend Walmsley to anyone.
alicia M.
Had a viewing of a property with Tom. Good and open communication about the area. Would recommend. Thank you 🙏
G T.
Brilliant experience! We haven't been looking for long but Tom was brilliant showing me around a couple of properties. Gave me all the information about the properties, the area and various connections I had questions about. Would definitely go through Walmsley again and Tom is an asset to the team!
Alicia
The Walmsley team delivers top class service! Everyone patiently answered all our questions and professionally guided us through every step of the process. They are super responsive and go above and beyond to help their clients. Special kudos to Beth and Katie for their attention and exceptional work!
Ruth I.
Best housing/letting agency ever!!! Great, kind and efficient staff, they're ever ready to listen to anything I had to say, quick response and effort to making my rent process and tenancy period worthwhile and comfortable. I'd choose Walmsley Estate Agents over and over again. God bless you all.
Paul C.
Great experience - polite staff, quick responses, accurate details and demonstrates ownership. I was mainly dealing with Emmaura at Caversham branch but also interacted with few others during the purchase. Everyone was very polite and professional and provided the required support to complete the deal. Highly recommended.
