Founding Director Simon Fisher first opened our doors in 2010, and are now proud to not only have 3 well-established offices across Torbay, but to also have been presented with multiple coveted awards, including 'GOLD South West Regional Estate Agency' at the prestigious Negotiator Awards.

Our innovative ethos has always put us at the forefront of contemporary estate agency, from the use of the latest property technology, to the modern designs of our offices and in-house marketing. Above all else, our primary goal is to provide you with an outstanding level of attentiveness, care and expertise.

    We're proud to have a highly-established lettings team, which is headed up by our Lettings Director Chelsey Earnshaw who won the coveted 'Best Property Manager Gold Award' at the Sunday Times Letting Agency of the Year Awards. Chelsey is ably-assisted by our experienced Lettings Manager Natalie Cook. A unique part of our lettings service is that you'll be assigned a designated property manager who will look after you and all aspects of the lettings process, including ensuring your compliance.

Assisting Torbay Landlords since 2010
  • paragraph

    Let us do the hard work...

    We understand that your investment is more than just bricks and mortar and most landlords have a strong connection to their properties. In many cases, it was once yours or a family member's home, and often a huge amount of hard work has been put in to renovate it.

    We also know that most landlord's rental income forms part of their essential everyday livelihood or has been put aside to go towards a modest retirement fund. Those with larger portfolios often rely solely on this income where it is their main business which is why diligent care from your agent is absolutely essential.

    Whichever one of the above applies to you, it's the job of our team of dedicated property managers to do the detective work on every tenant that we place. They will check multiple key indicators, at many stages in the process, using the latest innovative software to make sure they find the perfect people for your property.

    Throughout the process you'll be looked after by your assigned property manager who will get to know your home top to bottom as well as being your sole point of contact so that you can easily get any queries answered and know you're in safe hands.

Looking after you & your new home
  • paragraph

    At Absolute we genuinely care about the well-being and happiness of our tenants, after all we hope that you will stay in your rented property for as long as possible and hope that if one day you have the opportunity to buy or sell a home you would want to come back and use us again.

    Most landlords opt to use one of our award winning management services where we will look after you and your new home from move-in to move-out and we have some useful tools to help you when you move in to ensure things get dealt with in as timely a manner as humanly possible.

    You will also be assigned a property manager who you will get to know and with whom you can get in touch with to help you whenever you need help. This is usually the person you met when you were shown around the property!

    Simon Fisher MARLA - Founding Director
    I have been in the property industry since the early 1990's in Torbay, initially as an estate agent before becoming a mortgage broker in the early 2000's. I decided to open my own agency in Bedford back in 2006 which until the crash of 2007/8 was focussed on sales. We then quickly expanded into the lettings market and grew the business to managing over 250 properties within a couple of years before I decided to move back to South Devon and sold that business to my business partner. As one of the founding directors of Absolute in 2010, in the past decade I have overseen it's growth from a single office with 2 staff members to a team of 20+ across 3 offices.

    I have the pleasure of working with my entire family in the business and the fact there are 5 of us still working in it day to day really helps to keep the family feel of Absolute despite our ever growing numbers and reach.

    Chelsey Earnshaw - Lettings Director
    After graduating from Exeter University in 2013, I decided to join and grow the family business and was proud to have been appointed as Director in 2021. Over the years, I have seen the company expand from our branch in Torquay, to now 3 branches, and have played a large part in growing our lettings portfolio to over 400 properties, becoming the largest independent lettings team in Torbay & Teignbridge.

    I'm passionate about helping local landlords make informed decisions with buy-to-let properties from initial purchase. Importantly ensuring that they remain compliant throughout their tenancy journey and helping them to maintain happy relationships with their tenants, to secure a profitable but stable long-term investment.

      EXCELLENT SERVICE FOR A TENANT FIND
