We won’t stop until you get the home, tenant or buyer you’re looking for. If you’re thinking of buying, selling or letting your home in Beckenham, Park Langley or West Wickham, or you’re moving in Bromley, Shirley, Anerley, Crystal Palace, or Petts Wood, Proctors estate agents can help you. As an independent network of estate agents we provide: Sales Lettings New Homes Land and Development Not just local branches, local people too Proctors is much more than a full service estate agency; we’re passionate about property and the community in which we live. Between the London Borough of Bromley, Anerley and Shirley we’ve got the best shops, schools, parks and cafés, and a whole bunch of charm and vibrancy. South East London is a brilliant place to be - even if we do say so ourselves - and we’re keen to keep it that way. That’s why at Proctors we invest in the local community - sponsoring sports clubs, charities, school fêtes and local initiatives. We live, work and breathe London life. We eat at local restaurants, we use the public transport, our kids go to the local schools - and our knowledge is here for you.

Every Proctors office is run by a knowledgeable Partner, committed to making sure you get the best customer service. In fact, over 70 years after George Proctor founded the company, some branches are still run by members of the Proctor family.  A personal approach Proctors branches span a wide area of South East London, including Beckenham, Bromley, West Wickham, Park Langley, Petts Wood and Chislehurst, through to Shirley in Croydon and Anerley. Proctors is big enough to offer the resources of a large estate agency but small enough to care. You can be sure of a personal touch, plus the support of our network of agents. And because our agents aren't incentivised on individual commission, you can be sure they are dedicated to getting the job done with your best interests at heart. It’s no surprise our customers return to us again and again.
