They were looking for a home to rent but the minefield of letting agents pushing a multitude of properties that didn’t meet their brief resulted in a time-consuming and frustrating experience.

There was a clear need for a bespoke lettings agency in Bristol that would specialise in matching quality apartments and houses with individuals, couples and families who preferred to work with an agency who immediately understood their requirement, accurately filtered suitable properties and provided a personal, intuitive service that made the potentially stressful business of moving, pleasurable and calm.

In 1990, Sarah Kenny Residential Lettings was launched, with the first office being located in Sarah’s spare bedroom! Eight months later and with eight managed properties, Sarah teamed up with fellow director Peter Allen and they moved into a Clifton-based office.

Fast forward thirty years and the business is still thriving. With a professional background in HR, Sarah has always prioritised the happiness and well-being of her team members who she firmly believes are the heart of the business. Having a healthy work-life balance where every member of the team feels valued and appreciated is reflected in the calibre of service provided to our clients.
