We're now based in Park Gate, with services extending across the beautiful stretch of land we've endearingly named 'the Strawberry Coast' in honour of its rich strawberry-growing history. As a proud independent agency, we're not governed by head office targets, meaning we can advise clients on what's in their best interests and not because we need to hit a corporate sales figure. Here are some reasons people trust us to represent them. Uniqueness: We're not a standard agency found on every high street; we're different and proud of it. Flexibility: We adapt to your needs, offering a personalized service tailored to you. Empathy: We're human, just like you. If it matters to you, it matters to us. Honesty & Transparency: With us, there are no hidden surprises; we believe in an open, honest dialogue. Appreciation: We value and are grateful for your custom, acknowledging that you have a choice of agencies. Market Awareness: We stay informed of broader market trends and developments. Legislative Adaptability: We keep up-to-date with legislative changes to provide you with the best advice. Professionally Vetted: We're supported by the estate agency industry's leading professional body, PropertyMark. The PropertyMark Protected logo that we proudly display signifies that we're independently regulated, adhere to qualification standards, and follow a strict Code of Conduct. This means we're accountable to a disciplinary panel for any lapses in these standards, reaffirming our commitment to excellence in service.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
