Combining over two decades of unrivalled expertise, the latest technology (online, in our offices, and in our agents hands), coupled with a great bunch of loyal staff, it’s no surprise that we've been awarded Gold, Silver and Bronze ESTAS awards over the past 3 years (not that we’re bragging, we do that in the last paragraph below). We know how stressful moving is, so we've set up our offices to provide you with a personalised service. Since first opening its doors in 1991, Alexander's has steadily grown and is now firmly established as one of Wales’ premier estate agents, offering a comprehensive service, unrivalled in the Aberystwyth area. The company remains independently owned, with the partners and senior staff playing an active role in the everyday running of the business, ensuring continuity and helping to create an atmosphere of professionalism and peace of mind in what can be a time of anxiety and stress for many people. We are the choice agent for tenants in Aberystwyth, due partly to our reputation with tenants and landlords alike. Additionally, our various accreditations and accolades provide reassurance. Alexander's is the only lettings agency in Aberystwyth to be registered with the Landlords Accreditation of Wales. We are also members of the National Approved Letting Scheme, The Property Ombudsman and are Safe Agent registered. Our persistent efforts continue to gain recognition, most notably with multiple ESTAS awards, winning a gold award for Best Letting Agent in Wales in 2013,2014 and now 2015, a Silver award in 2012 and a bronze award for best sales agent in Wales. In 2014 and 2015 we were honoured to be named within the top 10 letting agents within the United Kingdom, and we achieved a silver award as the second best letting agent within the whole of the UK. We also achieved a bronze award in the 2015 Sunday Times Lettings Awards. Finally, we have received The Negotiator Gold Award 2015 for Best Agency in Wales and a Silver 20

During my tenancy, they attempted to impose massive greedy rent raises every year ( and it wasn't in response to market prices). Exploitative and greedy, I certainly won't be using them again. They have been the worst agency I have ever had dealings with....
