Always super happy with our dealings with DB Roberts Wolverhampton. David has been our reliable & friendly advisor throughout, showing us what’s needed as a landlord, providing valuable guidance and consistently being easy to reach when needed.
Josh and his colleagues have provided excellent, personalised service to us since we first approached D B Roberts. We would highly recommend Josh and the team to anyone looking to sell or buy a property in the area.
I would strongly urge anyone considering using DB Roberts in Wolverhampton to be extremely cautious, particularly when dealing with **Jay Reade, the manager who handled our property purchase**. Our experience was extremely stressful and, in our opinion, completely unacceptable. We were in the process of buying a property and simply needed reasonable time to arrange and consider the survey. Instead of being given the space to carry out proper due diligence on what was a major financial decision, we felt subjected to constant and unnecessary pressure to proceed. Jay repeatedly called us every few days, demanding a simple “yes or no” answer and seemingly unwilling to listen to or discuss the legitimate reasons why we needed more time. The manner in which we were treated felt intimidating, dismissive and, from our perspective, amounted to persistent harassment rather than professional communication. We were repeatedly told that the property could be put back on the market if we did not immediately give the answer she wanted. This constant pressure caused us an enormous amount of stress and seriously affected our wellbeing. Buying a home is already one of the most stressful experiences a person can go through; an estate agent should be there to facilitate the process professionally, not add to the pressure through repeated threats and aggressive communication. The situation became so unpleasant that, by the end of the purchase, **we refused to collect or accept the keys from Jay because we simply did not want any further interaction with her**. That is how badly our experience with her had affected us. No customer should feel so uncomfortable with an estate agent that they actively avoid seeing or speaking to the person at the completion of what should have been an exciting milestone. What makes this experience even more disappointing is that this behaviour came from someone in a management position. In our opinion, the level of professionalism, communication and customer care was far below what we would expect from an estate agent, let alone a manager. **DB Roberts' senior management should seriously take note of the way customers are treated and investigate whether this behaviour reflects the standards they want their company to represent.** This was one of the most stressful and unpleasant property-buying experiences we have had. Based entirely on our personal experience, we would not recommend dealing with Jay Reade.
Josh was brilliant throughout the whole process—professional, knowledgeable, and always quick to respond. He made everything straightforward and kept us informed at every stage. I’d highly recommend Josh or anyone else at DB Roberts to anyone looking for a friendly, reliable estate agent who genuinely cares about getting the best result for their clients.
What a great team Roberts are. So helpful every step of the way, and very professional. Have now used them to both buy and sell, and David was amazing from start to finish. Would highly recommend these guys.
DB Roberts have been absolutely incredible throughout our whole buying process. They’re easy to get in contact with, they’re reliable and they will do anything at all to help. We have spoken to and dealt with every member of the team and every single person there is so friendly and helpful. If we ever wanted to sell or buy again in the future we would definitely be going back to DB Roberts. Thank you all for your help!
DB Roberts Wolverhampton did a great job in selling our property in Pendeford. They know the both the City-wide and local property market very well I was kept fully informed at all stages of the sale and provided with messages confirming and reminding each viewing together with a follow-up call to discuss progress. I am very happy to be able to recommend using them..
