At Michaels Property Consultants we pride ourselves in being different. We don't practice as stereotypical estate agents: talking at people and hard selling. We listen to our clients. Every customer is different, they have their own needs and timescales and we are dedicated to putting these first. With over 30 years combined experience in property, we have developed extensive knowledge of the local area and we are able to give our customers genuine, professional advice at all times, whether they're buying or selling. We provide advice on what people really want to know, whether it be regarding schools, local amenities or even where to eat. We also offer a private service to investment buyers, assisting them in making the best decisions in building their portfolios.

Michaels understand that a person's home is more than likely to be their biggest financial asset, so we use the highest quality of marketing to ensure that we achieve the best price possible. We strive to provide people with a customer service beyond their expectations and we are so confident in delivering this that if you are marketing your home with us and not satisfied, we ask for just 14 days written notice at any given time.

Michael Simpson's roots are firmly in Halstead, since it was his hometown from a very young age and he went to both primary and secondary school here. Having started his career in property in Braintree at the age of 16 he then went on 10 years later to open Michaels' first branch in Colchester in 2014 with his friend and business partner Michael Rayner.

Since then, Michaels have opened two further successful branches - One in the affluent sailing town of Wivenhoe, and a third in Braintree where he started his career. Now having built up a large amount of success with property sales in the town from our Braintree office, we are thrilled to announce that we are opening our fourth office here under the leadership of Local Director Aaron Wilcock, and we cannot wait to bring the same level of exceptional property marketing and customer service to the people in Halstead and the surrounding villages, both sellers and buyers alike.

We will also be looking to give as much back to the local community as we physically can especially as it is very close to Michael's heart, for example we have recently agreed a fantastic sponsorship with Halstead Town Football Club - Who have named the main stand 'The Michaels Stand'.
