'Butfield Breach receives national recognition at

the EA Masters 2023'

Butfield Breach has attained the high standards necessary to be awarded with the property industry's most prestigious mark of excellence.

Every year, a rigorous assessment is carried out of every estate and letting agent in the country. There are 15,000 estate agencies and each one is assessed for property marketing, customer service and results, including how quickly they sell or let and percentage of price achieved compared with other agents in the same location.

The very best agents are listed in The Best Estate Agent Guide - a website for landlords and sellers to help them choose who to sell or let their property.

On Wednesday 21st September 2022 the results of this year's assessment were announced at the Best Estate Agent Guide Awards and Butfield Breach was among those recognised.

Open 40 days longer than any other agent in the area is probably a major reason why Butfield Breach have consistently agreed the most house sales in Calne, SN11 and surrounding Villages over the last number of years.

We believe being

Open 7 Days a Week is what is expected from both buyers and owners. It equates to being around over 40 days longer a year than most.

The success of Butfield Breach as an independent estate agent is based on the pride we take in presenting our properties. Taking care to capture the right imagery (which is appreciated by both sellers and buyers) plus choosing the right words to promote homes in the best possible way.

This attracts buyers both locally and on the World Wide Web. Success also comes with hard work and experience.
