About Us

  • paragraph

    image cannot be displayed
    Headed up by Vernon Moore, Managing Director of the Moores Group of offices, our Country & Equestrian Department focuses on the sale of larger, usually village homes, equestrian properties and land. 

    Vernon has a unique way of working which has appealed to our Country & Equestrian vendors and purchasers alike. With the majority of our C & E sales being achieved discreetly / off market, it is a truly personalised service. We also offer a free home search service to help our vendors find their next home.

  • paragraph

    "I endeavour to offer a service which is both personal and professional. "

    Having studied real estate in America and Europe before starting my career, I have always felt that the English system needed to become more of a personal service - finding the right buyer for the right property as opposed to a largely scatter gun approach. 

    Having also worked in the Cotswolds and Oxfordshire I came to realise that my home area actually had as much, if not more, to offer, invariably for better value for money. With more and more people working from home and faster trains on our doorstep, we have really become a "pin in the map" location. 

    We have worked hard to connect with buyers from London and the South who see us as the agent "in the know" of anything coming to the market in the area. 

    Country & Equestrian, good to know because we are in the know! 

  • paragraph

    In recent years Country & Equestrian have achieved as many, if not more, country homes sales than some of the national agents, often achieving higher sale prices than the national agent may have quoted. However, because of the discreet nature of these sales, our presence in the market isn't always highly visible.

Discreet marketing:

  • paragraph

    Discreet marketing:
    image cannot be displayed
    Our discreet marketing service has become very popular and is an excellent way of getting a feel for what buyers may be willing to pay and the level of interest you may receive without entering into lengthy contracts or paying any upfront marketing costs; costs and commitment which is likely to be required by other country homes agents. We often describe our discreet marketing as being a "litmus test" of the market and no vendor is obliged to commit to the interest that it may generate. 

    Often when a vendor is confident that they can sell at the level they wish, they instruct us to search for their perfect onward purchase; all of which can be done with the utmost discretion.

    With discreet marketing buyers are often willing to bid strong to prevent a property even reaching the open market putting our vendors in a win / win situation.

    With our Meet and Greet Service, we will meet relocating buyers from local mainline train stations and take them to view properties (whether through our discreet service or full service).

    Country Homes
    image cannot be displayed

    When it comes to marketing country homes, our connections with independent estate agents throughout London and the South are supported by national advertising in the likes of Horse & Hound and Country Life Magazine. In addition, we offer a free home search service for buyers and Vernon also does work for retained clients regarding investments and private homes at no upfront cost. As a lot of our country homes are marketed discreetly i.e. without the need for press or internet advertising, we encourage buyers to register with us. Whilst our vendors can market with us and take advantage of our high profile on rightmove.co.uk, many prefer to keep their sales discreet.

    In recent years Country & Equestrian have achieved as many, if not more, country home sales as some of the national agents, often achieving higher sale prices than the national agent may have quoted. However, because of the discreet nature of these sales, our presence in the market isn't always highly visible.

    We have an ever updating Little Black Book of off market instructions and offer a VIP Home Search (think of it as priority access to this Little Black Book), to anyone who instructs us to market their home.

    New Parent Home Search Service
    Year on year we register more and more parents looking to relocate to our area for schooling. If parents are seeking a private education for their children, it is increasingly likely that they will look to be close enough to their school of choice for their children to be day pupils, weekly or flexi boarders. For parents of day children, there is growing pressure to find a quality home within 10 - 15 minutes of their chosen school.

    That's why we offer a free New Parent Home Search Service where we are happy to discuss a family's requirements either over the phone, via email or by travelling to meet with them directly. We can then target the areas which are likely to suit. As parents of children who are schooled locally, we have an insight in to just how much to'ing and fro'ing can be involved in ferrying children to schools with demanding in school and extracurricular activities! We have helped parents relocate to all of the above schools and have specially designed our service to focus on the most commonly requested areas.

      Rachel, Clipsham
      We have worked with Jenny, Vernon and team over the past few years and have both bought and sold through Moores on more than one occasion. When it comes to buying property in and around Rutland, I could not recommend anyone else higher than Moores. They have a great network of repeat customers and contacts which means they always have a handle on what is moving in the market. I also want to recommend Jess in the team who is always extremely responsive and has the customer's best interest at heart. We have not had the easiest experiences of buying/selling but I know that we always have the team at Moores looking after our best interests. I highly recommend the Moores team, whether you are buying or selling. Keep up the great work!

      Helen, Thistleton
      I would like to thank Moore's, but in particular Vernon and Jenny, for the professional, human and total efficient way you dealt with the sale of my late father's house. You made the whole process so much simpler than I thought it could be, and you couldn't have been more helpful during this difficult Covid period. Whenever I rang or emailed you with any queries, they were dealt with promptly. I felt I was important to you, and not just one of your many clients. You kept me informed about everything every step of the way and nothing was too much trouble. I would 100% not hesitate in recommending you to someone looking for an estate agent who is straightforward, knows their area, is down-to-earth and gets the job done! A very big thank you

      Caroline, Somerby
      Thank you to Jenny and Vernon for all your work on the search for and the purchase of our beautiful new home. It's been a pleasure to deal with you from start to finish. Jenny and Vernon are both friendly, efficient, calm and nothing is too much trouble. We are very grateful and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Moores, they are head and shoulders above any of the other estate agents in the area in our view so I wouldn't go anywhere else.

      Simon, Waltham on the Wolds
      Thank you to Jenny at Moores for helping us buy our life home. Moores had kept in contact with us whilst we were in Hong Kong looking to relocate back to UK and arranged the first available viewing when we touched down. The experience has been a joy and I am very much looking forward to taking possession of the keys. Thank you again Moores, and especially Jenny.
