The market in Wokingham and the surrounding villages has always been very active, it being such a popular place for families. For every reason my family and I live in the area – schooling, travel convenience, beautiful countryside – buyers want to too. I consider myself extremely fortunate to work in such a lovely part of our country.

How do we help buyers find the right property?Whether you are looking for charming village cottage, a comfortable family house in the centre of town, or a sizeable country retreat, we will provide you the highest levels of service along with straight and honest advice. Our job is to make the buying process as easy as possible for you.

We make the administrative side of buying a property as simple as it can be, and we make as much information as possible available online, via our own website and apps and also through marketing properties through the major portals.

How do we work with buyers in Wokingham?Most importantly, we will listen to you and help you find exactly what you are after. Over generations our service has been about providing one-on-one bespoke advice to our vendor clients, and we have the same approach to our buyers. We will listen to your requirements and make suggestions to you, removing the need for you to trawl the adverts.

We always have a number of homes on the market where clients prefer not to advertise publicly, so do contact us so that we can proactively match you with the right home.
