Move over BAFTAs – the Best Estate Agent Guide Awards 2019 have released their rankings and we’re proud as punch to announce that we’ve been awarded “Gold Exceptional” (the highest score you can get) in both sales & lettings. What’s more, we’ve also been ranked by the BEAG as the 7th Best Estate Agent in the UK out of more than 25,000 branches- go team!

The awards are judged on a set of criteria: including how good we are at customer service, property marketing, time on market, market share, and success on completion.
Out of tens of thousands that were judged, only 89 branches were awarded as “Gold: Exceptional” in both sales and lettings… and we’re one of them! Moreover, our total score meant that the BEAG have awarded us the position of 7th best estate agent in the UK and the position of the No 1 best estate agent in North London.

We’re honoured to have received these awards. Our amazing team work incredibly hard to offer the best possible estate agency experience to each one of our customers and clients. Together, we’ve built a company that we’re proud of, but we couldn’t have done it without all of the amazing people who have bought, rented, let and sold through us over the years.

With great property comes great responsibility and we pledge to continue providing the highest quality of service to all of our customers.

There’s nothing quite like having an offer accepted on a home that ticks all the right boxes. After weeks, or even months, of searching, everything suddenly starts to feel real. Then the waiting begins.
Buying a property rarely happens quickly. Mortgage applications, surveys, solicitors and property chains all play a part, and while you can’t control every stage of the process, you can influence more than you might think. Over the years, we’ve seen organised buyers keep their purchases moving from day one, while small oversights have added unnecessary delays to others. A little preparation can make a significant difference.
One of the best things about summer in North London is seeing our neighbourhoods burst into life. Window boxes overflow with colourful blooms, front gardens are carefully tended, and balconies become mini urban oases filled with herbs, lavender and climbing plants. You don’t need acres of outdoor space to enjoy gardening around here – just a little inspiration and the right local spot to pick up a few plants. While many people immediately think of large out-of-town garden centres, one of the joys of living around inner North London is the collection of independent garden centres, specialist plant nurseries and community gardens right on our doorstep.

For many homeowners, selling a property follows a familiar path. Your estate agent takes photos, creates a listing, installs a board outside, and markets the property on major portals like Rightmove and Zoopla.
But not every sale happens that way. In recent years, off-market sales have become an increasingly talked-about alternative, particularly among sellers looking for a more discreet approach. Rather than being publicly advertised, the property is marketed to a carefully selected group of buyers behind the scenes. For some sellers, this sounds ideal. No constant viewings, no public listing, and no scrutiny from neighbours wondering what your home is worth.
