Estate agents in EX17 3SZ

Most people thinking about selling have the same three worries: how long will it take, will I get a good price, and how stressful is it going to be? Everything we do is built around those three things.

Getting the best price starts with how your property is presented and who sees it first. Every Helmores property gets professional photography, cinematic property film, interactive digital tours, and premium Rightmove placement as standard. For the right properties, we add aerial footage from our qualified drone pilots and a feature in our printed lifestyle magazine. Better presentation creates more interest. More interest creates competitive tension. Competitive tension gets better offers. In 2025, our vendors achieved 98.7% of asking price on average, compared to a national average of around 96%.

You also get your own login to our app, where you can see exactly what we're doing: every viewing booked, every piece of feedback, every offer, all your documents in one place. No chasing us for updates. No wondering what's happening. You can see it for yourself, in real time.

The part most agents don't talk about is what happens after you accept an offer. Nationally, around 30% of agreed sales fall through before completion. Ours is 14%. The difference is dedicated in-house sales progressors who manage every sale from offer to keys. They chase solicitors, coordinate surveys, and solve problems before they become deal-breakers. We also qualify every buyer before solicitors are instructed: identity, proof of funds, mortgage decision. You're not three months into a sale before discovering the buyer can't proceed.

We've been selling homes in Crediton and Mid Devon since 1699. If you're even starting to think about it, we're happy to have an honest conversation. No obligation. No follow-up calls you didn't ask for.

If you're a landlord, your biggest risk right now isn't an empty property. It's the thing you don't know you're not compliant with. The Renters' Rights Act rewrote the rules on tenancies. Deposit protection, EPC requirements, gas safety, electrical certificates, Prescribed Written Statements: miss any one of them and the penalties land on you, not your tenant.

Helmores manages over 320 rental properties across Crediton and Mid Devon. We track every compliance deadline for every property we manage. Gas safety, EICR, deposit protection, licence renewals: none of it gets missed. We've been managing rentals since long before buy-to-let existed, through every legislative change, and we'll still be here when the next one lands.

If you're a tenant, you probably want to know one thing: when something goes wrong, will anyone actually answer the phone? We have a dedicated lettings team and a 24-hour maintenance line. When you report a problem, someone deals with it. That sounds basic. It shouldn't have to be a selling point, but if you've rented before, you know it is.

Fees published upfront. No surprises. Whether you're a landlord wondering if your current setup would survive an inspection, or a tenant looking for somewhere you can actually settle, we'd like to hear from you.
