Who we are
  • paragraph

    We are a well-known, bespoke, female operated, reputable agency, specialising in Sales. We have over 35 + year's collective experience within the industry therefore having extensive knowledge of the Sales market.

     Ward Estates trades under SageWard Ltd which opened in 2010. This highly successful Ltd Company has established an excellent reputation for award winning customer service within the lettings sector. We felt that it was time to establish a sister company to meet our existing customers sales needs with the same dedicated, customer focused approach. 

    Our experience and feedback tells us that the majority of our new business comes through word-of-mouth due to the high level of service we offer. Ward Estates will emulate this successful combination of knowledge, passion and attention to detail.

    We believe in building a good reputation and we feel that our professionalism, vast understanding and efficiency makes us a first class agent who will provide the best possible service. We also believe that we stand out from our competitors being female operated and focused on sales. 

    Ward Estates focus on 'Sales only' and give 100% dedication to the property, vendor and purchaser. We treat each property as if it were our own and will give the same service no matter the circumstances, size or value of property. 

    Ward Estates also benefit from offering low realistic competitive rates to all Vendors whilst being located in a prominent position in the centre of Hertford. We are confident that our rates will beat those local competitors but at the same time offer an outstanding and unbeatable service.

This confirms that our ethos and style of business has succeeded, and we will continue to keep up the good and hard work and go that extra mile as we always have done.

What's Included within our service?
  • paragraph

    Ward Estates offer a personable, honest and trustworthy service where we will treat all properties the same regardless of size or value. We will provide an accurate market figure without overpricing in order to obtain business which often results in the properties not selling and becoming stagnant on the market. Overpriced valuations often result in the property price being reduced which we feel gives a negative impression for potential buyers.

     Ward Estates will ensure that all properties are priced in line with the current market value whilst obtaining the highest price for your property.

     Ward Estates are offering a competitive rate of 0.8% plus vat of the agreed sales price. We are confident that our rates will beat those local competitors but at the same time offer an outstanding, unbeatable and award-winning service. 

     The package will include:

     • Professional outsourced photography for all properties to create the right first impression in all online and offline marketing (at an additional cost, we are able to offer drone photography)

     • Professional property particulars/brochures will be professionally designed and printed to the best quality to generate and maximise interest, promoting productive viewings which capture the attention and interest of potential purchasers.

     • Online Marketing- Each property will be marketed on Ward Estates website and property portals including Rightmove, Zoopla, Prime Location and social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram

     • A personable one to one service where the vendor and purchaser are kept updated at all times. We will ensure that customers will be guided through the entire sales process

     • We will make arrangements for EPC's (Energy Performance Certificate) and Professional Detailed Floorplans.

     • We have local, reputable solicitors and mortgage advisors who we are happy to recommend as part of the sale process

    Testimonials from Sellers

    • Seller Testimonial

      honest and open approach
      We recently completed on a sale of our property through Ward Estates. We cannot speak highly enough of Lisa, Nicola and the team who kept us informed regarding the process of the sale at every stage and who managed us as sometimes anxious vendors with upmost professionalism. It was great to experience such an honest and open approach, we really appreciated their commitment and their pride in getting the job done.

    • Seller Testimonial

      kept the chain moving
      I recently had the pleasure of selling my home through Ward Estates and independent agent in Hertford. They were recommended to me by a friend and I am so glad that I took up his recommendation. First and foremost hey are just lovely people and cannot to enough for you. They are so helpful and professional. I dealt with Nicola and what a breath of fresh air she was. She kept the chain moving, kept me up to date on what was happening and ironed out the problems which inevitably arise during house moves, straight away without fuss. The biggest accolade I can pay her   and Ward Estates generally was when you buyers told me what a lovely helpful girl she was and they wished they had gone with her to sell their property. From start to finish a thoroughly professional and stress free experience. 
    • Seller Testimonial

      nothing was too much trouble
      I recently both sold and purchased through Ward Estates and had an extremely positive experience. Their professionalism, knowledge and friendly approach made both transactions completely stress free and smooth. Nicola continue to update me and made me really feel I was in good hands, nothing was too much trouble. Having worked within the property industry for 20+ years, I have high expectations on the service I expect from my Agent and Ward Estates more than exceeded these. I would highly recommend!

      I would highly recommend them to anyone
      I can't praise Ward Estates enough! Nicola handled the sale of our properties and, to be honest, they were not the most straightforward sales, but she did her upmost to make it as smooth as possible. We were always kept up to speed throughout, I could ask questions and for advice, and nothing was too much trouble. I would highly recommend them to anyone.
    • Seller Testimonial

      Ward Estates were professional and proactive
      Would certainly recommend Ward Estates. Nicola showed us around the property we are about to purchase. She was friendly and knowledgable, and unlike several other estate agents we met she wasn't trying too hard to sell it to us. After our bid was accepted, Ward Estates were professional and proactive throughout and made what can be a frustrating process as painless as possible. Well done guys!
