DB Roberts in short

DB Roberts Telford is the agency's town-centre branch in Southwater Arcade, suited to sellers and landlords who want to walk in off the shopping centre. Our verdict is that DB Roberts Telford offers the same operator company and protections as Oakengates with a more convenient front door. The branch address matches the register entry and the company record is checkable. Free valuation routes are published, and the compliance page sets out the complaints route and protection in full.

Customer reviews are excellent on the only public source we hold, with a 4.9 rating from 401 Google reviews and nothing else on file. Redress is registered and client money protection with RICS is stated. No fee scale or VAT position is published, so costs only emerge at valuation.
