A property

One address, written down plainly.

Before a price or a rent is agreed, we walk the building and keep a short note. The note is the same whether the next step is a sale or a let.

What goes in the note

Address

The full address, and whether it is a house or a flat.

Rooms

The rooms we actually entered, not a guessed plan.

Use

Whether the next step is a sale, a purchase, or a let.

Grey sofa, leather chairs, and a high window looking onto trees
A living room written into the note as it was on the day.

Only what was seen

We do not invent a loft or a garden we have not stood in. If a room needs work, the note says so. A buyer or a tenant should know what they will walk into.

A wide bed with a pale headboard, two lamps, and grey curtains
A bedroom counted only if we walked into it.

Sale or let, not both at once

A building we are selling is not also offered to let in the same week. A building we are letting stays in our name for the term.

If you ask for one and we are doing the other, we say so.

A viewing

One property, one agreed time, at that address. Do not come to the Shrewsbury office expecting a row of homes.

Buying from us

You see the building we own, at the price we set.

Renting from us

You see the same building, and we state the rent and the term.

Selling to us

We visit your address only if the first note is one we want to follow.

After the term or the sale

When a sale completes, the building leaves the company. When a let ends, the building is still ours unless we have agreed a sale. The note is updated either way.

Start with the address

Write whether you want to sell to us, buy from us, or take a let. Name the property or the area in the first line.
