Every year, hundreds of people in our local area entrust us to find the right solution to their needs when buying, selling, letting or managing a property. Our expert knowledge of the local area and our honest attitude to business are often mentioned as the reasons so many people choose us to handle such an important aspect of their lives.

You have a great deal of choice when deciding which estate agent to use but we believe our approach at PhilipAlexander is different. One size does not fit all when it comes to property and our customers tell us they prefer using a local independent company, run and managed by local people that understand the local market – as opposed to a corporate chains that don’t have the same connection with the local community
