Phillips & Stubbs was first established in the Spring of 1992 at a time when the housing market was entering into a prolonged period of decline, with property prices falling against a background of rising interest rates, rising unemployment and general economic recession.
The bold decision to open was quickly rewarded by early success despite the overall trading conditions, largely attributable to the ability to give sound, impartial and professional advise which comes as a result of senior management being closely involved with day to day workings of practice, and the firm as a whole adopting the Code of Practice and Regulations enforced by our governing body the National Association of Estate Agents. The professional approach Phillips & Stubbs take towards the task in hand sets us apart from many operational estate agents who, regrettably, do not adhere to such standards, or indeed, recognise the client benefits of belonging to an industry regulatory body. Continued staff training plays a key role in our efforts to provide advice that can be relied upon, as well as keeping abreast of current property legislation.
We know every square mile and having an intimate knowledge of the local area and market enables us to get outstanding results for our clients. Whilst we may never compete with the large, corporate concerns in terms of their financial might and self-promotion, they can never get close to the local community in the way that we can and develop those long term relationships on which the success of our business and reputation is built. Knowing the various micro-markets that make-up the local property scene and forging affinities with individuals in those communities over a long period of time gives us a deeper understanding and permits us to make those all-important connections that go beyond conventional marketing. Despite all the advances in technology, this business is still very much a people business and local ‘know-how’ is often the difference between success and failure.
Our staff are manifestly polite and courteous, even when working under pressure and would be delighted to advise anyone who may be considering a property related transaction, now or in the future.
