Readings arranged the application process and tenancy documents for my new rental agreement and were incredibly helpful. The staff members were always responsive in reasonable time frames and always flexible when arranging viewings. I would highly recommend this agency for anyone who is looking for a new property!

I used the services of Readings Property Group back in 2016, I was so impressed by their professionalism, their organisation and their efficient management of the tenancy. I was unlucky to move out from the property and used the services of another lettings agency which made my life like hell! Today I finally signed my tenancy agreement once more with Readings Property Group; already I feel happier; all the procedure moved swimmingly, in a very pleasant, professional and high level of customer service. Jadine Walbrook and her colleagues in Leicester showed understanding, patience, listening skills

Abby and James at Readings were very professional and helpful when we were buying a property. They kept us informed and helped speed up the process so that completion could take place within the timeframes set. They responded to emails and telephone calls quickly and efficiently.

Report
Having been treated shoddily and messed about by one Estate Agency, we turned to Sean and Abby at Readings who were fantastic in every department. They excelled at communicating and kept us informed every step of the way through the process of selling a 'difficult' property. Not being resident in the area of the sale we really did require help and advise and Readings certainly delivered all of that and more besides. I have no hesitations in recommending Readings.....they achieved the sale for us ! :-)
