    Selling a property, buying a property, or both, are the largest financial transactions you are ever likely to make. Trust that responsibility to professional and experienced Estate Agents -Chris Tinsley Estate Agents.

    At Chris Tinsley's we make the most of your property with high-quality photography, excellent sales brochures, and bright airy Town Centre offices.

    How many times have you gone shopping for a jumper, and come home with a coat?!

    In our experience, many buyers eventually buy a property quite different from their original requirements. Whilst we operate a successful computerized mailing system, there is still no substitute for talking face-to-face with a member of our knowledgeable team. We understand the obstacles buyers face, we have the knowledge and first-hand experience of local schools and colleges, the local villages and the surrounding areas.

    We are a local firm made up of local people.

    We look forward to hearing from you soon.

    All the best

    Team Tinsley
