In addition to our core services, of residential and commercial property sales and lettings, we operate an in house maintenance, building and refurbishment facility, as well as linked professional services from Surveying through to Independent Financial and Mortgage advice, plus Legal Services via our preferred partner companies. Barbara Rees was originally set up and founded in 1984 by Barbara & Jacqueline Rees, whilst J. Paul Rees initially held a consultancy role, to provide financial services to our clients. The head office was opened on Crwys Road in Cathays Cardiff, where we still remain to this day. J. Paul Rees later joined the business in a full time capacity as managing director, hence, we really are a true family business, that goes that extra mile, to offer our clients a personal, professional and caring service. By 1991, selectively targeted growth, diversification and expansion of our activities gave rise to a strategic review and re-structure of our business model, thus leading to the incorporation and segmentation of the business, to more accurately reflect our overall and individual group activities. We now cover property sales and lettings in all areas of Cardiff, Pontypridd, Llantrisant, the Rhondda and near by Valleys to the North West of Cardiff, M4 and A470 corridors. Indeed, we are proud of our roots, heritage and tradition, as we recognize and appreciate the fact that "most our business is derived from recommendation and referral" with clients retuning year after year for us to let and manage their property, as well as undertaking repeat sales, for both business and personal clients, as their needs change, and assets grow. So what of the future, well, Barbara Rees has established a name for quality and personal service and we see no need to change that, but we do recognize the need to change with the times and whilst many independent agents, may be pondering their future, Barbara Rees is geared up for the long term, as change always offers opportunity, not adversity.
