Property information from this agent

Places of interest

    When you combine solicitor’s fees, survey costs, stamp duty and then throw in a hefty estate agent’s bill, moving home can become a very costly business. Holters use effective modern marketing tools but cast aside the unnecessary and expensive practices, meaning our clients never have to break the bank to get the highest quality marketing. Having worked for traditional estate agents, founders William and Karl had long thought a number of the methods currently in practice are both outdated and extremely expensive. Their vision was to create a modern agency that offers excellent value for money, while delivering a first-class marketing package and so Holters was born.
