    Your Property, Our Passion

    At Absolute Sales & Lettings we do modern estate agency a bit differently. We're local and independent to our core, and always focus on delivering a totally bespoke approach to selling and letting properties, combining our local expertise and a powerful network with unique property marketing campaigns. 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. We're also incredibly proud and active supporters of our local charity, Rowcroft Hospice.

    When choosing Absolute, you'll meet a devoted, experienced and well-connected team of property professionals who will work alongside you to make your home or investment property stand out from the crowd, ultimately achieving you the best price in the right timescale. 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.

    Our Torquay Sales branch is headed up by Director Darren Hole, who has been working in Torbay estate agency since 1997. Darren is assisted by our highly accomplished Torquay team, including Senior Property Consultants Tina Liddiard and Frank Earnshaw, who have been helping Torquay residents with their properties from our sleek Wellswood office since 2016. Selling your home is one of the biggest financial decisions you will ever have to make and choosing who to trust with this is key to a successful sale. Our vendors love our professional photography, bespoke brochures, 3D virtual tours and extensive social media marketing that we are able to offer, and buyers find them invaluable when selecting which properties to view.

    We're also 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. If you are looking for an agent to manage your property as if it was their own, we'd love to talk to you.

    'Our vision is to always be the number one choice of agent in Torbay, Teignbridge and South Devon: To continue to be the first name that comes to mind when a landlord or vendor considers letting or selling their property, offering a service so good that our customers recommend us above all others. We are the most reliable, honest, friendly and caring agent with our brand recognised by everyone who will consider us to be the 'Absolute' best.'

    All of our advice is free and without obligation, so either give us a call or come and see us at our office at 13 Ilsham Road, Wellswood, Torquay for an informal chat and a cup of tea or coffee, so that we can help you with your moving or investment plans.

    Darren Hole MNAEA - Director
    After living in Torbay all my life I made the decision in 1997 to dedicate my career to helping people move and have succeeded thousands of times over the years. Having previously spent nearly 20 years at a local firm of estate agents, I quickly progressed to Regional Manager overseeing 8 offices in Torbay and Teignbridge, and winning many personal and team awards along the way, before joining Absolute in 2016.

    Frank Earnshaw - Senior Sales Consultant
    As a long-standing Senior Negotiator, I joined the Absolute team back in 2014 as part of the original office, and I've enjoyed being part of the growth of the business since. Having worked in the Wellswood office since opening in 2016, I've been able to forge strong relationships with our clients.

    With an emphasis on professionalism and clear and objective advice, I relish the challenge of agency and expanding my knowledge base to provide clients with a refreshing and calming approach. It has been a delight to be part a fantastic team which has clear direction and watching Absolute thrive and expand during my time here is a joy to watch. Capped off with our recent win for 'South West Estate Agency' of the year at the Negotiator Awards, I am excited to be part of Absolute's future.

    Tina Liddiard - Torquay Sales Manager
    After a 2 week work experience as an estate agent whilst still at school and being the daughter of an estate agent in the Midlands when I was a young child, I decided once I had finished school it would be the career for me. Initially I worked for an independent agent then continued my career in another sales role before rejoining the estate agency business in 2000 in a corporate enviroment before moving back to an independent agent but working my way up on the way.I have good local knowledge of the bay and the process of the house move, and aim to offer a first class service. I enjoy all aspects of the role from conducting viewings to the actual move day and get great satisfaction when I can help find that dream home to finally handing over the keys.

    I am delighted to be part of the Wellswood Team at Absolute as we pride ourselves on our service and aim to go that extra mile.

    Shannon Morris - Property Consultant
    I knew from a young age that I wanted to be an estate agent, after watching my nan run her own successful firm in Bournemouth for over 20 years. I got my first real taste of the business at age 15 by doing my work experience with another local agent and the love grew for the business from there. I started my journey with Absolute in 2021, as a trainee administration team member, before being promoted to trainee negotiator and now to a sales consultant based in our busy Wellswood office.I pride myself on offering brilliant customer service and theres nothing I love more than helping individuals and families find their dream home. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family, partner and friends, wining and dining and traveling.

      the whole service has been top standard
      The Absolute team in Torquay have been incredible with the sale of my property. From valuation, to photos/marketing (which were amazing quality), to arranging listings, and communication - the whole service has been top standard. I used them before for the purchase of my property, and when it came to selling there was no doubt in my mind about choosing Absolute. I would recommend to anyone.

I don't normally write reviews, but I couldn't not praise Absolute estate agents enough. Kim went above and beyond to keep my sale on track. I will definitely use them again.

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Always kept us informed
      The Team at the Torquay branch were so helpful when we bought our first home. Always kept us informed and did everything they could to chase updates from solicitors to get the sale through as quickly as possible. Very friendly, we would definitely recommend.

    • Buyer Testimonial

      Polite, professional and helpful
      We purchased a house through Absolute. Our journey was very protracted and far from straightforward, no fault of Absolute though - at every turn they kept us informed of what was happening, and were polite, professional and helpful in all their dealings with us. I want to say a huge thank you to all the staff at the torquay branch (I feel we know them all very well by now!) for playing such an important role in helping us secure our dream home at long last.

      Caroline Plumb - June 2023
