Our Service

Lower cost than other agents, otherwise we will beat their fee (provided they are offering the same service we offer)
Viewing and valuing hours are not restricted to your usual 9-5pm – we offer evening and weekend viewings, including Sundays (provided you are happy with this)
You will deal with the same agent throughout the whole process, giving you a professional, personal experience
Whilst we cover a large area, we always put in the time and effort to research your area and more than likely, we will have already sold properties in your area.
Times are moving forward – if someone has decided they are going to look to purchase a property, they do not tend to walk into the estate agent office down the road to ask if they are selling any properties they might like, they go on Rightmove and phone estate agents to register their interest. This is why we advertise all of our properties for sale on Rightmove, the UK's number one property website.
We focus solely on sales meaning our full attention is on selling your property

So if you are thinking of selling or would like some experienced property advice, call us on 01454 529026 or email [email protected].
