Places of interest

    Bardens Estates is a Tunbridge Wells based estate agent offering Sales, Lettings and Property Management. Customers benefit from our extensive property experience, whether they’re selling, letting, buying or renting. We are proud of our customer service and competitive fees. We believe that the fees charged by traditional high street estate agents are much too high, so we offer our customers a great service at competitive internet prices.  We offer two ways to sell your home: -Pay Now Option: Just £780  Sell your home for a low fixed fee. The fixed fee includes VAT and is the same whatever the price of your home. We charge just £780 including VAT for a home selling for £200,000 and we charge the same £780 fee including VAT for a home selling for £900,000 -Pay Later Option: Just 0.6% sales fee (no sale, no fee)  With this option there is nothing to pay until completion. The fee is calculated as a percentage of the sales price. A home selling for £200,000 will incur a sales fee of £1200 including VAT, and a home selling for £300,000 will incur a sales fee of £1800 including VAT Whatever option you choose we include photos, floor plans, Energy Performance Certificate, optional For Sale Board, a full marketing package using Rightmove and Zoopla, and a dedicated local sales agent to guide you through the selling process.   Do you have a property to let? -Bardens Tenant Find is just £246  Let your property for a low fixed fee. The fee is fixed no matter what monthly rent is achieved. A property letting for £800 and a property letting for £1000 rent per calendar month will both incur the same fixed £246 fee, inclusive of VAT -Bardens Full Property Management is only 9% This fee is calculated as a percentage of the monthly rent. A property that achieves a monthly rent of £800 will incur a monthly management charge of £72 inclusive of VAT. A property that is let for £1100 per calendar month will incur a monthly management charge of £99 inclusive of VAT If you are a landlord or tenant you will experience a very different approach from the team at Bardens. We DO NOT CHARGE TENANT FEES! This is obviously great news for our tenants, often saving them many hundreds of pounds at the start of a new tenancy. It also gives our landlords a huge competitive advantage when we market their properties. Bardens is a licensed member of the National Association of Estate Agents (NAEA) and the Association of Residential Letting Agents (ARLA), which means that you can be assured that we are a professional agent and that we can give you up-to-date advice and guidance.
