Twiz made my relocating to Tunbridge Wells that bit easier by clear communication and a friendly approach to me renting my new home. The process when leaving the property was also very straight forward. Use with confidence.

I would highly highly recommend these estate agents! I've rented many properties over the years, and Randalls are far and away the best estate agents I've ever dealt with. They are incredibly friendly, helpful and efficient, and are great at communicating and very prompt at dealing with any issues that crop up. They make renting a joy!

By far the most professional estate agency we have encountered in the area - manager paid special attention to our search and made sure we had a very personal experience. No unnecessary spam nor were we made to feel like another number in a crowd. Twiz was amazing in arranging our new home and made sure we were happy to the very last detail. Absolutely recommend!

From the very beginning of searching for a property until getting the flat of our choice, I have nothing negative to say about this company. Charlotte was our estate agent, and I have never come across a nicer one. My girlfriend and I fully trusted her, felt she was friendly and very efficient. I would recommend this company to anyone.

Charlotte was friendly, helpful and professional. The flats I saw with Randall’s were of a much higher quality than those with other agents. Charlotte guided us through each step of the process clearly and honestly and was always on hand to answer any queries. I would 100% recommend them to other tenants.
