I have rented my house from these guys for four and a half years now and I can't really fault them…read more If there is ever a problem they sort it out quickly and efficiently, they have a great back up team for maintenance and repairs, and on top of all that they are a friendly little team as well. They did a really thorough inventory when I moved in and they do inspections every three months, they give me copies of everything so I have no fears of any hidden problems when I eventually move out. I am kept updated of everything by phone and e-mail, and always call me back if I leave a message. They make an effort to remember exactly who you are and have all of your info in front of them when they speak to you. They have even made an allowance with me by letting me have my little dog, although they do get rather upset with me if I go into their office and I haven't got the dog with me for a cuddle. :)

For those who might not know, "estate agent" is similar to what Americans might call "realtor",…read morethough I don't know if these people are similarly licensed and I have no idea if there is anything like an MLS in the UK. Regardless, I needed a flat ("apartment") for a few months and Haslam's was one of the few that replied to my email. After taking my specifications (price, neighborhood, number of bedrooms, etc.), Haslam's set up an appointment for me to view two of their listed flats. The first one was nice, but it overlooked a rather busy street and I thought it would be too noisy. The second one looks out over a quiet and pretty back garden with a double door though no balcony. It has all the appliances I needed (Brits seem to like drying their clothes on a drying rack rather than an electric clothes dryer!) and a modern look and feel. Recently refurbished, it looks great and the furniture was good. I took it on the spot. Unfortunately, there's an approval process where they have to get a credit and background check, which meant another week in the hotel for me. Eventually, the paperwork came back and I met them in their office to go over the remaining details. Everything was explained well and my questions were answered, so I took possession and paid my remainder. If you're in the market for a flat, or if you have a flat and you're looking for a renter, check out Haslam's.

I looked at renting a property with Jon Rosi on London Street in Reading when I first moved to…read moreReading a few years ago. They had a variety of sensibly priced one bedroom flats on offer. I viewed a number of places and the agent drove to them with us to view. The communication was great especially as I was living 100 miles away at the time. I eventually plumped for a small one bed flat and battered the price down from £450 to £425 per calendar month this was 4 years ago. They were very helpful and friendly towards us and was happy with their management of the property. They worked with the landlord to replace a window that kept misting up and was done without any arguments.

The bathroom in the en-suite is almost like a wet room with a shower, sink and toilet all in a little room next to the entrance to your room. The kitchens are quite big with plenty of storage for everyone's food. It is right next to St Patrick's and it about a 5 minute walk to the main campus. It is also about 4 minutes away from a bus stop that will take you directly into town or towards asda. A one way ticket is £1.70 and an all day pass is £3.20. Overall the student village rocks!

I can recommend their services and confirm that they offer a very professional service.

Lier's and crooks, an absolute disgrace.
