We specialise in residential property, whether it’s buying or selling, letting or renting, together with block management, surveying and valuing, conveyancing services, mortgage services and land and new homes. Our two Directors are both Chartered Surveyors and the company is regulated by the RICS. Many of our staff also have professional qualifications, such as MNAEA and MARLA. Since its inception the company has chosen to make quality of service the foundation on which it is built. Strongly coupled to this are the interests of our customers which must always come before the interests of the company. This is what sets us apart from many of the other Estate Agents in this region. Estate Agency is a people business; people sell and let homes and we always keep this at the forefront of our mind during our daily routines. We have, as our policy, retained all the values of a traditional estate agency whilst at the same time embracing the latest technologies so the customer experience is the best it can be.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on December 22, 2021

    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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on December 22, 2021

    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
