Property information from this agent
About this agent

From property sales to land management and from sheep auctions to single farm payments, we are experts in a range of rural matters. Add in our annual mistletoe and holly auction and we can proudly say countryside business is at our core. Nick Champion established the company in 2005, but has been based in Tenbury Wells since 1977 and is now backed by a strong team at the company’s office. If you are a farmer, if you own rural property or land, or you wish to invest in or move to Worcestershire, Shropshire or Herefordshire, get in touch. We are members of the Guild of Professional Estate Agents and can utilise its Park Lane office in London for marketing, but our driving force is here in the West Midlands of England. The discovery of mineral springs and wells brought prosperity to the area in the 1840s – more than 170 years later we can help you prosper through property, auctioneering and agricultural-related services.
