    Selling your home

    We genuinely love what we do and we are proud of the friendly, understanding and no-nonsense approach we give. With teams across Wiltshire, we have the local knowledge and modern technology to help you sell quickly... and realise the full value of your home.

    We sell properties across Wiltshire from new homes to listed cottages nestled in the Cotswolds. Having our properties listed on all major property portals such as Rightmove, Zoopla, Prime Location and OnTheMarket as well as our own website, ensures that we don't miss out on a buyer for your home.

    Great photography is something that we feel very passionate about and is why we spend so much effort in getting the right photos to sell your home. Whether that is with our drones for the perfect aerial shot or using one of our professional photographers.

    We understand that every home is different and that is why we offer a bespoke marketing package to suit your needs whether that is a video tour, drone footage, professional photos or more; we will always make sure we represent your property in the best way possible.

      Dear Sir Please allow me this little note to express the thanks of my wife and I for the most professional services received from your firm in connection with our recent purchase. Although it is appreciated that all property transactions are, de factor, the result of a team effort, all members within your office we had occasion to deal with were courteous, polite, informative and always found to be most helpful. You have Sir, an excellent team and although it would be quite unfair to single any individual member out for special mention you have a most valuable young asset called Darren who was our main point of contact among your trusty ranks! Many thanks again for what prove to be an excellent, 5 star, stress free service. Mr & Mrs G Tidworth

      "a thousand thank yous"
      To all of the staff that helped with our purchase, thank you.. a thousand thank yous! Mr & Mrs Eborn
    • Buyer Testimonial

      unfailingly helpful, friendly and professional
      We are writing to say how pleased we are with the service provided by the staff in your office. We have been searching for a property to buy for the last 18 months over an area stretching from Pewsey in the east to Taunton in the west so have dealt with approximately 50 different estate agents. We are of course aware that agents act for the vendor rather than the purchaser but were unprepared for how unhelpful and sometimes downright rude or even mendacious some agents could be in their dealings with us. Strakers Devizes office was an outstanding exception. We had dealings mostly with Nick Catlin but all other staff we encountered were also unfailingly helpful, friendly and professional. We were recognised on coming into the office and never had to repeat our search criteria. You always seemed to know the type of property we were looking for and went to great trouble to give us early notification of any suitable properties coming on the market and then promptly arrange viewings to suit our timetable. Your staff were always a pleasure to deal with and we are only sorry that we ended up buying through another agent and not Strakers. We have recommended you to all our contacts and if and when we come to sell the property we have bought in Edington there is only one agent we will approach. With kind regards Yours Sincerely Mr & Mrs Spicer
