It's Official! Holden Estate Agents Are One of The Best Estate Agents in The Country!

We have been awarded the top gold award and have been graded as exceptional in The Best Estate Agent Guide 2022.

The Best Estate Agent Guide is a website that provides an independent reference for sellers, who can search for the best sales and lettings agency offices in their area.

The website is compiled by The Property Academy (an organisation that works with agents to improve service standards in the property industry), with the support of Rightmove, the UK's leading property portal.

There are c. 15,000 estate agents in the country and Holden Estate Agents was among this year's award winners, confirming them to be one of the very best estate agents in the country.

Over 3 billion data points were analysed in the search for this year's top performers - the biggest assessment of any industry. The awards are made for property marketing, customer service and results - which consumers consider to be among the most important criteria when selecting which agent to sell or let their property.

Peter King, founder of the Property Academy commented: "We set out to provide the home mover with a reliable resource to help identify the best estate agent in each area, whether someone is looking to sell or let a property. Only the very best branches make it into the Best Estate Agent Guide and only the very best agencies have been recognised with an award."

Phil Cumbers, director of Holden Estate Agents said "These awards follow a rigorous and independent assessment and we are thrilled to have been recognised as one of the best in the country".

The rental market is still growing, but the way properties are managed has changed. August is a useful time for landlords to review tenancies, rent processes and record-keeping.

Scrolling property portals is useful, but registering with an estate agency can give buyers a more personal, proactive search experience, especially when the right home is about to come to market.

August does not have to be a quiet month for your property search. With the right financial preparation and viewing strategy, summer buyers can uncover opportunities others may miss.
