Be protected when using us to let or sell your property!
As a propertymark agent your money is protected, our accounts are audited and we're member of an independent redress scheme.
Thanks to our network of agents across the UK, we've built strong connections with a number of industry suppliers.
Whether you need a mortgage, insurance, or conveyancing we can provide you with competitive quotes from tried and tested companies.
Unlike an 'online only' agent we have a genuine local presence, with our prominent office on Castle Street.
However, unlike your traditional high street agent we fully embrace the technology available to us and rival online agents too!
Unlike most agents our doors don't close to you at 5:30pm, and we're available on Saturdays and Sundays too.
If a purchaser or tenant wants to view your property after work hours, no problem!
When choosing an agent, you want one that will get your property the biggest exposure. That's why we list on Rightmove, Zoopla, primelocation and many other sites.

As a hybrid agency we save on a number of other items due to our network, and we pass these savings directly onto you without compromising on service!
