About Simon & Co, Bournemouth

Clifton House 10 Poole Hill Bournemouth Dorset BH2 5PS

Estate Agency... but evolved.

We're Estate Agents, but we don't 'sell' properties. It was only when we stopped 'selling' that we were able to develop our approach that consistently gets quick results, without compromising on price.

Instead, we build attraction to the property without selling falsities, hiding problems, avoiding questions or coercing people into paying more than they can afford.

Our entire philosophy is based on openness & complete honesty with all parties.

We work with our clients to diligently and creatively take properties TO the market, creating ethically focussed competitive environments with the right people.

The way we work also allows us to keep an untraditionally low stock for Estate Agents. Lucky for us, it's helped us pip 'Bournemouth Best Agent' ten years running as we can completely focus on customer service.

We're a forward-thinking and empathy-driven team that love what we do.
