    Selling with Boatwrights

    At Boatwrights, our key objectives are to sell your property quickly, at the best possible price and to ensure your move is as stress-free as possible.

    The selling process starts with a valuation appointment and moves on to getting your home ready to put on the market. Next we look at the marketing and viewing processes as well as dealing effectively with offers to ensure we get the best price possible. The final, and perhaps most important, element is then ensuring that we successfully progress your sale through to completion.

    Our knowledge of the local area and the property itself, along with the key skills we possess, underpin the whole selling process.

      couldn't recommend Boatwrights enough

      I absolutely couldn't recommend Boatwrights enough. They dealt with my sale and purchase, and without them it would have fallen through several times. The house sold for more than I expected in a matter of days. Professional, quick, friendly - I can't see another estate agent being comparable.

      Outstanding local knowledge

      Matt and Dan did a sterling job keeping us informed with regards to potential buyers visiting the property and gave us regular feedback as to why an offer wasn't made or how the viewing went. Outstanding local knowledge and we had complete trust in that they would act with professionalism and would represent our interests at all times.

      Highly recommend Boatwrights
      Highly recommend Boatwrights. Dan, Hannah and Laura make a fantastic team. Professional yet personal, polite and honest, nothing is too much trouble for them. They make what is generally a stressful time when selling your home a more relaxed affair. We had full faith in Dan and his team throughout the process. We were kept informed and updated throughout, so we never had to question or worry about anything. Cannot thank this formidable Trio enough for all their help, support and professionalism. If you are selling your home there is no better service than that of Boatwrights own Dan, Hannah and Laura .

      Very efficient and completely professional
      In the last few years Boatwrights have sold 3 properties for us. At all times we have found them to be very efficient and completely professional. Any query has been acted on and followed up promptly. With both our sale and purchase the process has been long and tedious. Without their help I would have had a nervous breakdown! They deserve their fee as they work hard and manage often difficult situations and personalities with great tact and discretion

    Testimonials from Buyers

    • Buyer Testimonial

      First-class professional service
      We first met with the team at Boatwrights in the new year of 2021, to explain what kind of property we were looking for. Unlike almost all the estate agents we'd been dealing with, they did not bombard us with inappropriate suggestions, and/or waste our time with marginal possibilities. In fact, they said they had nothing for us, but would be in touch when they had. Then, silence. Eight months later, we received an email inviting us to consider carefully a property that was about to come on the market, which they felt would suit us. Before going public with this property, Boatwrights said they would show it to three or four special clients. Were we interested? We studied the spec. It seemed perfect in almost every way. So we made an appointment to make a visit at the first opportunity. (I think ours was the last of four viewings.) As it turned out, the viewing matched the brochure. This was exactly the house and garden we wanted, and the price was right. We made our offer at the asking price on the spot, commissioned a survey at once, and had the whole transaction underway within a week. Two months later we are ready to complete the sale and move in. All I can say in retrospect (after more than a year of looking with some very high-profile names) is that Boatwrights provide a first-class professional service tailored to the needs of their clients. The vibe is efficient and highly focussed. Some people might say it was old-fashioned and traditional, but the proof is in the results. We found our dream house, and acquired it with a minimum of fuss, and in what seems now like record time. We could not recommend Boatwrights (Dan & Matthew especially) too highly. They are the tops.

      We can't speak highly enough
      We have recently bought a property using the services of Nathan and his team at Boatwrights Shaftesbury branch. Throughout the process Nathan has been the biggest help amongst all involved. There have been a few issues throughout and one person who helped us push things along was Nathan. Nathan was always at the end of the phone talking to us, the vendors and both legal teams involved. Without Nathans help I'm not sure we would have the keys to the property today. We can't speak highly enough about the help, advice and service provided, so thank you Nathan.
