    History

    In 1925, Leslie Boyce (L.J.) opened an Independent Estate Agent's office in Fore Street, trading as L.J. Boyce & Co. In 1952 Leslie moved the Brixham office to its present position. Leslie was a long serving member of the Brixham Urban District Council and "lived, slept and ate" Brixham. Grandson, Mark Boyce, joined the firm in 1986 and soon discovered the same attraction to Estate Agency and working in Brixham.

    Having now retired, the reins have been passed onto husband and wife team, Will and Alice Litherland. Between them they have nearly 30 years experience in estate agency, with 20 of those years working for Boyce Brixham.

    Our mission statement is simply "give best advice and communicate clearly". We are proud to be approaching our 100th Year but we are more interested in you and the future!

    Boyce Brixham is part of the fabric of this town and our proud to be one of the town's most established, respected, yet forward thinking businesses.

      Buying


      Many of our buyers are from outside Devon and we particularly welcome them to the Brixham experience. We are very proud of our town and likewise wish to make that purchase experience as smooth as possible.

      We will guide buyers through the process and fully understand that many clients are not fully aware of all the requirements as the sale progresses. We are here to help and no question is too small or too stupid!

      Once a property has been selected we are able to supply buyers with details of three or four professional surveyors should a survey be required. We are happy to meet any trades at properties should anything need quantifying or checking over.

      We also work with independent mortgage brokers that we are able to introduce purchasers to. Again, we have also developed first class links with local solicitors and are very pleased to make introductions. Naturally we also have a list of removal companies based in Torbay.

      Our aim is to work with you and offer support when needed.

From start to finish they managed the whole transition from valuation, to instruction, from compiling the property details to accompanying viewing, to the final offer and completion, everything was managed expertly. I am only hoping they can open a

        Samuel was excellent and well worthy of recommendation. He clearly knew about all the properties and had good building and local knowledge. He was so polite and engaging and thoroughly conscientious. He even helped the old lady whose house we saw across the road! We both thought his employer should know what an asset he is to the company
