      1. Factual: We keep it simple, picking out all of the main selling points of the property and talking about what each room has to offer.

      2. Emotive: We get creative and produce a lifestyle description. We chat through what made you buy your property and incorporate the reasoning into the description.

      In addition, all of our sales particulars will include:

      Detailed Floorplans - which are a very effective way of illustrating the layout and measurements of your property.

      Photography Professional Photography - A professionally taken photo is worth a thousand flattering words. Let's face it, the first thing you do when you look at property advertisements is check out the photos. We can't stress enough how important these - they alone can lead to a prospective buyer requesting an appointment to view. For that very reason we use a professional photographer to ensure we get the right angles and light balance to make your property look great.

      Energy Performance Certificate - A legal requirement when marketing a property for sale, illustrating the energy efficiency of your property.

        truthful and straight forward with their clients
        Brilliant, Excellent would be underestimating my respect to both Richard,Ben and colleagues at Rwhitelys, they helped us sell our property, even tho it was in need of considerable repair. Very highly recommend Rwhitelys because they are truthful and straight forward with their clients at all times in our experience and were able to achieve a very fair selling price for our house.Thank you for all your help.

        their contracts were easy to understand
        We used Whitleys because long before when we were thinking of selling, they sent someone out to give us advice on what to do to the house over the next six months. There was no guarantee of any business. We acted on the suggestions that Richard made. When it was time to sell we had a shortlist of three, and the deciding factor was that their contracts were easy to understand. They were also so sure of their business that you could cancel after only a few weeks. The showing took only two or three weeks and they found a buyer at the top of the market. Frankly, I wondered whether it was worth the money to use an agent, but I am glad I did now. I would recommend this family company (Google Review)

        Above and beyond the call of duty
        I have just exchanged contracts on the sale of my house through R Whitley & Co. Although they already have an enviable reputation in this area, I must say how impressed I have been by their services. Their never ending patience, courtesy, professionalism and efficiency would put all other Estate Agents to shame. My SPECIAL thanks go to Ben Gunton who has been a tower of strength to me throughout. His help has been above and beyond the call of duty. With many thanks, Marion

        kept me informed all the way along
        The team of people that I worked with were brilliant, from the person who first took me out to view several properties to the people who answered the phone every time. The particulars for all of the properties were very professional and informative with accurate floor plans. I was able to have regular contact with my agent who kept me informed all the way along and was able to provide me with invaluable tips and advice as a first time buyer and walk me through exactly how the whole process would work and any bumps that there may be along the way. We were able to complete a leasehold purchase from start to finish in two months. A wonderful service, thank you :) Highly recommended and I will certainly use them again. (Google Review)

        no hesitation in recommend them
        I would like to thank Whitley & Co and in particular Ben for providing an exemplary service. Throughout the sale of our property Ben contacted us weekly to update us on progress with feedback from viewings. As the sale proceeded we were updated regularly and any issues dealt with promptly.

        Helped us in every way
        Ben is fantastic. We were first time home buyers and didn't have a lot of information about the whole buying process but Ben helped us in every way to make it as easy as possible.
