About Mackenzie Smith, Hartley Wintney

Millbank House, High Street, Hartley Wintney, RG27 8PE
Industry affiliations:
Selling property throughout your area since 1992

We have in-depth experience and intimate knowledge of the local property market within Hartley Wintney and surrounding villages including Winchfield, Hartley Wespall, Eversley, Heckfield, North Warnborough, Natley Scures and Bramshill.

Welcome to Hartley Wintney

There is no question that buyer demand is still outweighing the supply of fresh homes coming onto the market here in the Hartley Wintney area.

This year accurate pricing is even more imperative than last year as whilst there are many buyers, they will not often pay over the odds.

In my opinion, the experience and skill that is required to ensure a house is correctly priced to attract serious interest can only be provided by an agent who not only knows their area, but also what the right buyer will pay for any given property.

If you are looking for clear advice on how to pro-actively sell your property please get in touch to speak to an agent who has been in the business for over 30 years and knows the local intricacies of the market.
