Roots Estate Agency was launched in January 2016 by two local men who dreamt of owning their own estate agency. Their aim is to dispel the negative myths of estate agents and focus on providing their customers with the communication and service they deserve. As such, Roots was formed as a forward thinking, modern estate agency with traditional values centered around the customer. Ashley and Craig are determined to be the local property market leaders through delivery of their promises, while demonstrating discretion and professionalism at all times. Being very hands on people, they will minimise the stress of moving and competently chase the sales progression to ensure you receive a personal and tailored service.
