We have carved out a strong reputation among our competitors, based upon the highest standards of service, true professionalism, and a tenacious attitude to our clients' interests - qualities which, when combined with deep local knowledge and a level of experience second to none (Robin Evans, our Head of Residential Sales, having been with the firm since 1973), allow us to stand out from the field.

Operating throughout Portsmouth and the immediate surrounds, Nesbit & Co handle the sale of all types of residential property. As well as conventional marketing, we are uniquely placed to offer clients the often desirable option of sale by Public Auction through the city's only Property Auction Saleroom.
