Why so many people trust Mansell McTaggart to sell their property...

Bigger is better

With 17 offices across Sussex and into Surrey, we're the biggest independent agent in our area.

This means we have lots of experience to draw on, so you can be sure we know our stuff when it comes to talking about your property's likely value.

It also means that we'll have lots of buyers registered, and so will be very likely to find a buyer for you in good time.

No unreasonable tie-ins

Not that we let being the largest agent round here go to our head. Quite the opposite in fact. For example, we NEVER try to tie you into one of those over-long contracts. We think it should be our service that keeps you with us, not a legal agreement - and knowing this helps ensure we work hard for you right up to completion day.

The service you'd expect

We also take great care to make sure that the service we offer you is just what you'd expect it to be. For example, we always accompany viewings, and always make sure we've all visited your property before marketing begins - we know how annoying it is to be shown round a property by a 'negotiator' who knows nothing about it!

Mortgages, insurance and financial planning

We also work with trusted specialists to help our customers find the right mortgage, insurance and other financial products. Speak to us on 01293 228228 for an initial, no-obligation discussion with no pressure to take things further. That's a promise.

Get the ball rolling

Whether you're thinking seriously about selling, or just curious on the value of your home, please do get in touch for a free, no-obligation property valuation. You can call us on 01293 228228.
